Lots of seating space, there is a second floor. We were seated on the second floor, it was nice and quiet. It is conveniently located near the Sheppard station, only a few minutes north of the station. The staff were attentive and efficient. Really enjoyed my meal here, you can also get extra sides including the cheese corn and egg! read more

This is a great spot to try, especially if you are in a group. The pork belly was thick and they gave us a large quantity. The thin pork belly was quite tasty when cooked crispy. This restaurant also gave refills of the egg and cheesy corn, which is one of my favourite things to eat at Korean bbq. Sometimes it was a bit hard to get the waiter's attention because they were so busy. It is better to make a reservation if you plan to come during dinner time on a weekend because it gets very busy. read more

This was a recommendation by a local. I'm glad I went because their meat was 10/10 and the taste was 15/10. Service was quick. The booths were small but eh read more

I been to the yonge and sheppard quite a few times and it seems like the service has gone up! the last few times I have gone, it was really hard to get their attention but they were walking around and checking up on my table today which i really loved. Meat quality was up to par, but wish they cut the boneless short rib as it was harder to eat unless you cut it. The ambiance is always nice, and they have a patio as well. Restroom is downstairs, it was not clean. Can easily find parking behind the restaurant at the Green P. read more

Each person need to order an entrée...that's almost mandatory...what happened if seniors cannot eat so much meat...

It was freezing that day and we were out on the patio. There heater was somewhat sufficient however the grill is not heating up enough due to the cold, therefore we weren't able to cook anything for 30 minutes. Then we asked the manager to move us inside, which they did, also apologized to us and gave us free dish. Thank you for making things rightc great service. But yea, never do kbbq in the winter outside. read more

Unlike a lot of Korean BBQ spots, Daldongnae isn't all you can eat, so don't come here expecting that. Prices might seem a bit high at first glance, but the quality of the meat is noticeably better than what you'll find at AYCE places. You also get a generous spread of sides, which helps balance out the cost. At one point we had so much food we barely had space on the table. Service was solid, nothing over the top, but nothing to complain about either. The food overall was above average for Korean BBQ, and the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. Definitely worth checking out. read more

The best Korean BBQ in town. So good that there are four locations all along Yonge street in between Steeles and Sheppard. That's insane! Decor in here is super cute and retro vibes. The food is always on point and have such great cuts of meat. Can't forget the unlimited side dishes, corn and egg that they serve. They're really generous in giving you unlimited sides, we find ourselves always asking for the cheese corn as it's so delicious. Make to have the cheese corn on the grill for a little longer to get that crispy cheesy edge. Whatever cut of meat you get for the grill is fresh and top quality. Wash down that KBBQ with some cold noodles, whether you get the soupy cold noodle or soupless version, it's very refreshing and great contrast to the bbq. This is hands down the best Korean BBQ and I find myself here all the time along with their other locations! They're all so great and have the same quality and great service. read more

I've never been to a kbbq place before but I went with some friends and had a great time! They have easy instructions to follow showing you how to cut and cook the meat, and the selection of meats they have is really good. They gave a bunch of side dishes which were delicious! The staff were very attentive and kind the entire time we were there! The ambiance is lovely with nice moody lighting great for some cute photos!! read more

Ate Korean BBQ and suddenly I'm in Yonge St. The meat was so good I almost cried. Staff were cute and friendly, 10/10 would go again #KoreanBBQ #foodheaven #worthit read more

Love the hot pot and pork bone soup here. We enjoy the service which is always kind and good. It's a family run restaurant feel.

Surprised to see another location pop up on Yonge St., it is a very convenient location with a paid parking lot behind the restaurant. The food was standard with lots of side dishes & refills. I like that this location takes reservations through Yelp. read more

comfortable interior, good food. quick service. try the various beef cuts. will come back!

Phenomenal Korean BBQ in a really nice, cool environment. I've only had Korean BBQ once - in Seoul. This was equal to that, or better. The meat tasted great, the cold noodles were fantastic, and everything was very tasty. There was also a healthy selection of Soju! ;) I loved sitting out on the rooftop patio (although it got warm with the bbq in front of us), and the restaurant itself was clean and large. Service was also excellent - very fast and responsive. I will return!! read more

I've been in this resto for a few times, but today will be the last time. My previous visits was really good, the food is nice and the ambiance. But today when we're billing out we paid the bill with a tip, however while we're living the crew stopped us and told us we gave a tip that is below their minimum tip which is 15% of the total bill and ASKED us to pay the balance ‍‍‍. Like wtf. I thought tip is what you're willing to give. Since when did restaurants have a minimum tip? I've been in this place before and this was the first time this happened. I don't know if it is the crews or their management policy now. read more

sorry I couldn't get a picture of the actual food. It was too good. I ate it fast. Sam was the best server. it's hard to get a server in a restaurant these days that genuinely cares about the well-being of their customers. so much so that he offered me a bib because I was wearing a white top. The eye contact the interaction with my daughter. He made us feel like we were at home. Who does that today? Not enough people in my opinion. read more

First time trying Korean BBQ and it was such a nice experience - great flavors, good atmosphere, and friendly staff.

My favourite Korean grill restaurant. Love the food, serive is okay and the ambiance us busy. Overall would recommend to my friends.

It was okay- they took care of our friend with gluten allergy but did not have tamari sauce for him, which I thought was pretty lame. Service otherwise was pretty bad- no one checked in on us. We had to flag down for numerous occasions. Definitely not my favourite location. read more

Great food, great service, and good value! Not a long wait for walk-in on a Friday evening. Highly recommend.

This review is strictly about the level of service. The food itself is very good along with the upper patio seating. However, the terrible service made for a poor dining experience. I would suggest driving a bit more north on Yonge street and going to the Steeles location where the service is significantly better and the staff are much friendlier. To start, every time our server would come by so we could ask for a refill on the lettuce or side dishes or extra napkins, she had the rudest face and literally had one foot out the door instead of actually stopping to take the order. Its as if she didn't give a sh*t and couldn't be bothered with a customer's request. We had to ask multiple times for refills on lettuce considering they would only bring out one basket with 5-6 pieces. But with a table of 6 dining, you can see that it would be consumed pretty quickly. To make matters worse when the manager swung by to ask if we needed anything we also requested a refill on the same items since our server was MIA. and even then it didn't come out for sometime. I can go on and on about the lack of attentiveness but I'll save my breath and ensure I go to the Steeles location instead where they are much nicer. And easier to find FREE parking. read more

Service was fantastic,- everyone was super on it re-filling whatever we needed. Great banchan, loved the wagyu and pork belly, and the mushrooms. Cute vibes as well! read more

They are liars. Was told that you don't need a reservation for the patio when I called. I confirmed with the person on the phone that I would come in an hour because of traffic. When I came here, they told me it was closed.... SO DISAPPOINTED. Try another place, there's many bbq along yonge street. read more

I just saw an email from Yelp that Dandongnae cancelled my reservation from their end, what????why??? I have been your restaurant a number of times, spent $$$, so why? I remember a friend of mine telling me that he experienced the same non sense and didn't think of it much back then. Fine, I will go to other place for Korean BBQ. I really miss LeeNamjang which was originally at the current Daldongnae Sheppard location. read more

best best best. if you are a fan of KDRAMA, and you wanna feel like you enter that realm.... go with the group. reservation in advance is a must- don't walk in, you may never get a seat. food and the side dish is awesome. servive is perfect. we are too busy having fun with soju and bbq to check the Ambiance. most like it was the best as well. You have to order at least 2 orders of meat in order for the grill to turn on. With 3 orders of meat, you'll get unlimited rounds of 6 side dishes ( must have )- you can only get refill on the side dish, as long as you still have meat to grill. So don't rush, don't go low on meat either. read more

Amazing quality of meat. I just love this place!!! I bring my friends and family here as often as I can afford to go. It's well worth the price. Family of 4 about $140-$150 includes 15-18% tip. read more

Came in for lunch on a Sunday. We ordered the boneless beef ribs, pork belly and seafood pancake. The side dishes were generous and the staff didn't mind topping up if you finished. The beer was cold, but where were the glasses? The bbq plate was greased with a piece of pork fat, and we were offered some soup with our meal, as we would have been in Korea. The corn and egg were a nice surprise, but not my thing. My favorite dish around the hot plate was the hot kimchi... we ended up ordering more food, because it was enjoyable and delicious. The quality of everything was great. I can easily upgrade to 5 stars; perhaps an easier meal to justify in winter & getting all hot and smoky is a whole lot more justifiable read more

Had Korean BBQ, the meat food is average , not exceptional but acceptable. The place is noisy and most patrons are young folks. Service required is minimal but the waiters are pleasant and efficient. Price point is good and it's a fun place to dine. read more

This place is generally good, but had a server unapologetically reject my request to be seated away from the windows when I commented that it was cold. I had 3 people and other tables with 4 people had been seated at larger less cold tables. Otherwise generally do not have complaints about this place. These types of situations shouldn't end up with a negative review. I mean, this is a Monday night with no wait list for gods sake. *update* They gave us better seats 5 minutes later Adjusting review from 1 star to 4 read more

Hated the food. Meat was decent but did not like the sauces or accompaniments. Nice decor. Service ok
