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.
The quality when down. The food is below average. The tempura is not very good. The vegetables are still to raw to eat. The sushi depend on the type can be fishy. The service is not very attentive. When order something is always missing. You would need to call the server to get it. The meat could be better cuts. The price is okay for the experience & food.
Very fun place to eat with friends. The service was rapid & the food was good. It was a bit complicated at first to order with our phone but it's actually way better as you don't have to wait for someone to come to your table to order again & again. The only thing is that the tables are a bit small & so is the grill. We were 6 to eat & would probably have needed two tables but the restaurant was packed (because it is a great place & it was saturday). I will def come back.
We ate at this all you can eat at this restaurant. Food wasn't bad. Ice cream was tasty. The selection of sushi was good as well. I recommend that they clean the grill once in a while during our rounds. Some of the meats got stuck after grilling many meats
Tout est délicieux & ambiance agréable ! Comparer à d'autre restaurant du même genre c'est de loin le meilleur!! Les employés sont très gentils & service impeccable!
Délicieux, les viandes sont goûteuses & les sushis frais. Les employés sont très attentifs aux clients. Il peut y avoir du ralentit pour les boissons si c'est plein. Mais sinon, les plats vides sont débarrassés régulièrement & les commandes arrivent rapidement aussi. L'ambiance est plus jeune, c'est un peu bruyant mais on s'entend parler. Exellent bbq dans son genre.
On a eu une mauvaise expérience. Manque de commandes, nourritures froides & insipides ne parle pas français. Côté positif viande à grille excellente. Le coût de coeur la viande sur le grille & les beignets.

It's... a nice AYCE but the food quality is honestly very mediocre. The food takes forever to cook & the meat is hard, barely any chewiness. The only good thing is the unlimited drinks option that AYCE restaurants usually don't have.
The food seemed low quality, the chicken tasted weird. The kitchen was simply sending way more items than what we ordered or way less items. After 30 min inside they told us to do one final order because the kitchen was closing (which is fine), so we did, they simply DID NOT send half of the items we asked for on that order & we had to pay when we were still eating so they just stopped sending us food after we payed which is just absurd because we ordered prior to that. The idea of all you can eat & drink is good but do better.
Wish I could give 4.5- overall good with good service- BUT- the sushi is trash, they brought wrong things to the table multiple times (not a huge deal) & also they sat us without explaining that you have to order on your phone - BUT- food is very fast to come out & besides the sushi it was very good.
The service was not so good. It's true that there were some food that never arrived, or arrived incomplete or it came after a delay. Also, We weren't planning to leave, but they brought us the bill what I found disgusting & they were charging 11.99$ for our baby that it's less than 2 years old but after we told them they removed that from the bill, so pay attention to the bill. They don't have a very good customer service. The tipping system is not great at all. It's was not the best experience!
