Daldongnae Korean Bbq (yonge&steeles)

Absolutely adored this place! Really good quality meats and unlimited side order refills, including the ones on the grill! The servers are super friendly and always gave no problems for refills (we asked for quite a bit of corn...so good!! Presentation of the meats was also fantastic Came with tofu soup which tied in the entire meal Would 100% recommend trying this place out!

Daldongnae is raved among the best Korean BBQ in Toronto, and I tend to agree! Their locations have been propping up all over the city, as well as in Montreal. We had reason to be at Yonge/Steeles, and took this opportunity to dine at Daldongnae 's patio. It 's hard to resist KBBQ when there 's a colorful spread of sides filling the table. Let 's start with the meat, the menu offers a selection of pork beef cuts. We had Pork Belly that was cut to three medium sized thick slices. It was tasty with a refreshing onion vinegar mix the soybean paste sauce in lettuce wraps. We also tried Beef Hanging Tender cuts that were pre-marinated. It was fairly tender with a steak taste as the marinade was quite light. Fun to cook your own meat, despite the summer heat. Along with meat servings, the menu offers a few other Korean dishes. We tried the Seafood Pancake which was pleasantly crispy around the edges, and filled with baby shrimp, squid scallions. It was too much food for 2 adults, as our meal came with cheese corn, steamed eggs, banchan soybean stew. While the stew was a tad too salty, the sweet cheese corn steamed eggs were delicious; we made sure to refill once. Meal service was pleasant as well. Friendly staff welcomed us upon entering the dim restaurant from their back door. On this hot day, they ensured we had plenty of ice water since we wished to sit in the patio. We were the only family there but we received frequent checkups to make sure everything was well. Our main side dishes arrived in short order, as did our banchan refills! PS: if you 're curious about Daldongnae 's dark nostalgic theme, it harkens back to the moon villages in the mountains that became refuge post-Korean War. The interior restaurant decor intentionally resembles slums in films such as Parasite . It 's a reminder of a hardened life communal spirit while enjoying a fine meal.

You honestly can't go wrong with Daldongnae. Great selection of meat and other assortments to compliment it. Especially great during a cold winter day! It is of great value, with all you can eat sides. Though I have to say, it was a bit messy not having plates and getting sauce everywhere lol. Maybe i'm just a noob with the wraps but honestly would recommend and will definitely be back here again.

Great place to invite your friends. Great Korean food. Great service! A good tip is to brighten up the space. It is a bit dark in the booths.

Had dinner here with my partner on a Friday evening. We thought it was going to busy, but managed to find a spot. Good service, they're very welcoming and tended us well. Ordered beef boneless short ribs and beef chuck steak quite good portion for 2. Their sides are delicious, but I love the soybean soup! It's the best soup I've had so far when visiting bbq house, had it with their steamed korean purple multigrain rice. Ordered some egg rolls little bland but the ketchup saved it ????????. The corn, egg, and kimchi is well served with the bbq. Promptly checking on our table for any adds, checking the grill, and how we doing. Overall, great experience????????
