Review Summary

Sota BBQ Coréen is hailed by many as one of Montreal's best all you can eat KBBQ, delivering tasty beef and other meats, solid sushi options, and a dessert line including ice cream that earned frequent praise, with some visits featuring fast service and a lively, well ventilated dining room. Experiences vary widely, though, with reports of long waits during busy times, last call rushes that force large upfront orders, incomplete or delayed dishes, and occasional billing issues such as added gratuities or hidden surcharges. Language and service consistency also come up, from attentive, friendly staff to comments about uneven attention, limited French or English, and inconsistent timing between courses and grills. Overall, it remains a popular spot for groups and celebrations, especially for fans of AYCE with a mix of Korean barbecue and sushi, but several reviews caution that the value and quality can depend on the visit, timing and how smoothly the service runs on that day.

One of the best eat all you can Korean BBQ in montreal. Variety of foods to choose from in an affordable price. I love the ice cream especially the red bean & green tea. Generous cut of beef steak. The calamari & octopus tail are great. There are just some missing on orders, & take some time to receive. Soup is serve in small bowl. But over all we love the place, surely we will visit again soon.

I highly recommend SOTA! I've been to three different Korean BBQs & this one is my overall favourite. There's no strict time policy to stress you out. The place itself is nice, the staff was friendly, the service was sUperfast, the portion sizes were smaller - which allows you to taste more items, & overall every item was good (except the sausage - I wouldn't recommend). I particularly loved the Korean bone beef stew, the dragon roll & the array of sauces that are available to you. I was pleasantly surprised by the black sesame icecream : probably not for everyone as it has a very powerful taste which tastes like sweetened sesame oil - I loved it. The black bean icecream was disappointing : it tasted like a watered down cherry icecream. The price bracket I indicated is including tax & tip

Best Korean bbq I have in Montreal, super fast service & unlimited soft drinks, Fanta & Canada dry are my favorite, especially the sushi surprised me. I love pork belly & beef rib so much. Highly recommend & 5 stars. The waiters work so hard that they deserve 15% tips.

After reading the many negative reviews I was skeptical. Gave it a try anyway. Pros: Insanely quick service. We ordered by phone & items came within the minute at the fastest. Some of the items were pretty good such as the beef steak cuts & salmon pieces, hence we kept going back to them. Drinks are included. You get choices between sprite, ginger ale, coke … which is typically extra cost at separate places. Cons: the soup that was offered only came in small bowls rather than stone bowls as advertised on pictures. There is variety but the sushi has more rice than filling. I would really only stick with the meats & vegetables. Overall the standards for a good BBQ experience was met. I would recommend you give it a try.

Edit : I came back for the second time to give a chance to this bqq & I'm actually quite surprised. They change their beef quality & ut soo much better then before. Some stuff on the menu still need to work like the dumplings but overall the service was great, sushi amazing & the atmosphere not that bad. Would recommend here.

The thin beef slices is really good. Salmon is fresh. Everything is 10/10

Horrible. If you are used to good KBBQs, this isn't one you should try. The food was subpar, the sushi was honestly the worst i've ever had. The waiter reeked of sweat & every time he would come to my table i would get nauseous. Cant say the service was bad tho. Everything arrives very quickly to the table. The beef ribs were my favourite part! Still do not recommend going here.

Deep dive review. The tables have wood benches to make it uncomfortable to sit so you are more likely to leave. They cut the gas at one point for over 15 minutes, what a joke. They take forever to bring you food so that you feel full over the course of time. They had no AC just fans. They don't even bring the exact portions you order for no reason, I ordered 10 slices of beef & i got 5. Really really disappointed.
