Very disappointed with the service we received from our waitress, Alice tonight. 😕 She was unfriendly and unwelcoming the whole time. When I asked simple questions about the food and drink, she was dismissive and rolled her eyes multiple times. Her actions seemed like she was annoyed to be there. Also our water glasses were never refilled throughout the meal… I’m sharing this feedback in the hope that management addresses the issue…We genuinely enjoy the food and have had positive experiences in the past but the level of service we received tonight was unacceptable and took away from an enjoyable evening.
What guests say about Gyubee Grillades Japonaises
Gyubee Japanese Grill in Montreal seems to be especially appreciated for its good-quality meat, varied selection, and service that is often fast and attentive. Many customers highlight a pleasant atmosphere and a fun experience, especially in groups or for an all-you-can-eat meal. However, the wait can be long, especially during peak hours, and a few reviews mention service lapses or inconsistent quality. It’s a good choice if you want a lively all-you-can-eat BBQ, but it’s best to be patient and ready for a busy place.
Reviews / Ratings for Gyubee Grillades Japonaises
Very disappointed with the service. I’ve been to many all-you-can-eat restaurants and have never experienced this kind of treatment before. When we placed our order, the server responded with, “5 orders of beef?” with a look of shock and apparent disgust on his face, which made us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome. For context, we were a group of 6 adults, so the order was completely reasonable. Unfortunately, the overall experience left a bad impression, and I would not recommend this restaurant based on the service we received.
I’ve been a regular at Gyubee Japanese Grill for dinner and have always enjoyed the food and service, even with the occasional wait. That's why I gave 5 stars before. However, I recently visited for lunch for the first time, and it was a disappointing experience compared to dinner. The food selection felt quite limited which is still fine as the charge is lower comparing to dinner. Well, the service was not up to the usual standard. While most of the staff were fine, I had a particularly unpleasant interaction with one waitress. I asked her for an item, and she agreed, but it never arrived, forcing me to ask another server instead. When I tried to communicate in Chinese (which is common here as most staff are trilingual in English, French, and Chinese), she responded very aggressively, saying she didn't understand. I understand that language barriers can happen, but her tone was unnecessarily rude. It felt like asking for service in Chinese was an offense. It’s disheartening to see such a drop in service quality during lunch hours. I hope management looks into this, as I would love to continue coming back.
Great food and great place. The workers are really nice and polite and you get the food pretty fast so no need to wait for a while. We were served by Mr Hanton Wong, he was really hospitable.
Ada and Victor were wonderful with our big group. The food was delicious and there almost before we ordered it. A great place for a group dinner.
Everything was very fresh and really good. Service was super fast and good, and the staff were friendly. Honestly it’s been a long time I didn’t eat this much at an all-you-can-eat place like I did at Gyubee. I would definitely come back again.
Nothing just compare the quality of meat from gyubee, It is so good! I love how affordable their lunch menus as well and it's very good selection for its price as well! Servers were very fast and attentive too.
Came in to get a table and all of the employees looked at us and walked away. Not one employee said a word to us to let us know if we would be seated or not, they just stared at us and continued walking around. We stood there for 10 minutes.
Everything was very fresh and really good. Service was super fast and good, and the staff were friendly. Honestly it’s been a long time I didn’t eat this much at an all-you-can-eat place like I did at Gyubee. I would definitely come back again. Thanks to Steven for his good service
Everything was so delicious i will definitely come back.
Amazing service by Evan, great food and good time!
I went today and i got served by Ada She was super sweet and gave us a very good service all our time there💕
All you can eat with a good selection of food to grill yourself. The is a time restriction but still plenty of time to be satisfied.
I've been a few times and it's always delicious! Thank you Steven for your great service! A great place for those who want to experience the robot kitty waitress. Fun and cute! 😊
Nice japanese bbq. Many choices !
The food was delicious, but Nora’s outstanding service is what we’ll remember and what will bring us back. If you’re looking for great food paired with truly exceptional hospitality, ask for Nora — she’s the best!
Excellent food and beyond excellent service, Ryan the waiter was very polite and incredibly helpful thank you for a great experience!!
Honestly one of the best kbbq style restaurants around. The meat quality is high, the sides are great and the service has always been exceptional. We had the pleasure of being served by Ryan this evening who was an attentive and extremely funny waiter.
We enjoyed our meal greatly and always like our experience at Gyubee. Delicious food with a variety of options. We were served/taken care of by Steven today. He was prompt, helpful, courteous, and efficient. Thank you for your service, Steven!
Ayman was very attentive, nice and made it a great experience for us!
Came here for dinner with a friend and was not disappointed! Service was good and attentive, quality of meat was pretty good esp for an AYCE place. Thank you very much to K, who was a wonderful server.
I brought my friends and I here for a birthday dinner and the experience was nothing but fantastic, Ayman provided us with top tier service and kept the food rolling in, highly recommend for special occasions and such
Honestly, the customer service at this place becomes none-existent after you are seated. Staff is not necessarily rude but all have unpleasant demeanours definitely makes you want to finish your meal quickly and leave if that’s their goal lol. They practically toss your plates at you no eye contact and everything else is just lack luster compared to other bbq places that are across.
When I came here to eat with friends, the waiter looked arrogant and somewhat disrespectful. I called many times, but they ignored me. No waiter often passed by us, so we had to stand up and look for the waiter.
My girlfriend went to eat at lunch today (13:00), she came back telling me how she was given some attitude by the servers. Two of them were rude and did not bother asking if it was their first time and did not present the menu either, the restaurant was not busy and still, the service was slow and unwelcoming.
