Les avis sur Sota BBQ montrent globalement une expérience positive avec une formule à volonté coréenne appréciée pour sa variété et son bon rapport qualité-prix, avec des options comme le sushi et des portions généreuses; le cadre et la ventilation sont souvent loués et le service rapide et poli dans l'ensemble, ce qui en fait une adresse recommandée pour des sorties en famille ou entre amis. Le lunch est apprécié tout autant que le soir, même si le choix de viandes peut être moins vaste à certaines heures. Certains critiques signalent des temps d'attente longs, des commandes incomplètes et des erreurs de service, et d'autres mentionnent des frais supplémentaires ou un pourboire inclus sur l'addition qui surprennent. Des expériences évoquent aussi des difficultés de communication lorsque le personnel ne parle pas bien le français et des soucis d'organisation, notamment lors de groupes ou de périodes chargées. Dans l'ensemble, Sota BBQ demeure une option fiable pour les amateurs de barbecue coréen à volonté à Montréal, mais l'expérience peut varier et certains aspects du service et de la transparence tarifaire pourraient être améliorés.
Si il y avait zero j'aurais mis zéro service exécrable patrons irrespectueux insulte ses client au point j'en suis sortie le larme au yeux parle pas français insulte les gens en. Coréen plus jamais. je ne recommande a personne très mauvais expérience
Ever since Seoul Chako closed, this spot has become my go-to for all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ in Montreal. The quality is consistently great, & the bonus is that they offer sushi as well, perfect for us because my husband is obsessed with sushi.
I also really appreciate how well-ventilated the dining area is. Indoor BBQ spots often struggle with smoke, but they've mastered the balance here. You can actually enjoy your meal without smelling like a grill afterward.
Highly recommend! this place never disappoints (I've been 5x with family & friends)
Les quantités sont mal indiquées, le service est mauvais ou inexistant, il n'y a pas d'option végétarienne, pas de place pour les groupes de + de 8 pour information, on nous a aussi pressé pour finir & sortir… Le prix de 56$ n'est clairement pas justifié. Je ne recommande pas cet établissement.
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
This was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. While eating at this all-you-can-eat BBQ restaurant, an elderly man with no uniform or any identification suddenly came to our table &, in a very rude & interrogative tone, kept asking,'You're done, right? Your grill is off, why don't you pay?' His attitude was extremely disrespectful.
In fact, we had not finished our meal. We had ordered more food that hadn't arrived yet, so we temporarily turned off the grill & planned to turn it back on once the food came. We were not over the time limit at all. Meanwhile, several nearby white customers had turned off their grills earlier & were eating ice cream, yet none of them were questioned. Why were we singled out? The unfairness was shocking & uncomfortable.
When I pressed him about who he was, he finally said he was the owner. I then asked why he ignored other tables whose situation was even more obvious but chose to confront only us. He stammered & said,'They are eating ice cream,' even though I still had food on my plate. Faced with my question, he went completely silent. He then said he was there to serve food, which clearly avoided addressing the issue.
I repeatedly asked him to leave our table because he was disturbing our meal. Only after several requests did he finally walk away. The entire experience was disrespectful, unfair, & left us feeling that we were being treated differently. I strongly suspect discrimination was involved. I would never return to this restaurant & cannot recommend it to anyone.

I was a fan of Gyubee. When I had my trip to Montreal, the line up of Gyubee is crazy & we were starving, so we decided to go to this place across the street. This is the best decision I have ever made, there are more choices here & it definitely tastes better than Gyubee. Absolutely recommend.
Sushi & Grillade BBQ Asiatique tout @ un Resto! Sota BBQ est un bon choix. Ce resto est situe 2 minutes tout pres du metro Guy Concordia. Ce resto offre un menu avec plusieurs choix de viandes marinees, legumes, sushis, des plats cuits ex: des soupes, du riz, des nouilles, des tempuras, etc. De plus, les boissons gazeuses sont tout aussi @ volonte. Je vous conseille fortement d'y aller au moins 4 @ 6 personnes pour pouvoir essayer un peu de tout. Pour un groupe plus de 20 personnes, je vous recommande de parler avec le gerant du resto pour faire une demande pour la salle privee. La salle est situee au sous-sol & elle est tres grande. Elle peut accommoder jusqu'@ 50 invites. Appeler pour plus d'informations! Amusez-vous!
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.
Too distracted by eating to take good pics Service was super quick, but they missed a lot of our items. 40 minute wait time to get seated, a lot of people wait longer around dinner time. Sushi is done to order, & was surprised really great. Super solid meat, big recommend on the lamb & pork belly. Don't like how busy & loud this place is, & you're pretty squished in but I assume that's just what happens with popular places. That plus the missing items is what made me choose this rating.
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
