Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta Thai B.B.Q.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Boon-Dee-Moo-Kata is a hidden gem! 🔥 The Thai BBQ experience was one of a kind—grilling right at the table made the meal interactive and so much fun. The meats were fresh, the marinades were packed with authentic Thai flavor, and the dipping sauces were chef’s kiss 😋👌. The service was amazing—friendly, fast, and super helpful, especially for first-timers. The vibe was lively, and the food just kept getting better with each bite. If you’re a fan of bold flavors and love a hands-on dining experience, this place is a must-visit. Can’t wait to go back!

We had a birthday party at Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta Thai B.B.Q. The meats are so fresh and the sauces for BBQ are out of this world! There are plenty of choices for food and desserts The service is great and very attractive. They always pay attention to customers and care for friendly services Definitely come back again

I am from Toronto and this has been our go to spot in Queens. I wish we have something like this in Toronto. The soup and bbq grill combo PLUS the sauces! Will keep coming back! They have huge selection of food and dessert and their ready made apps were all so good! Been dreaming of their garlic rice! Service was quick and efficient. It is a timed seating but it is more than enough to get your fill. Very affordable price point considering the quality that you are getting!

If you’re a fan of AYCE BBQ and hotpot, Boon Dee BBQ is a must-visit! Owned by an inspiring Asian woman, this place is a paradise for food lovers. The variety is simply incredible, every type of meat you can think of, loads of fresh veggies, and an array of Asian flavors that make each bite exciting. The self-service setup means you can grab whatever catches your eye, and the staff are incredibly quick at refilling items, so you’re never left waiting. The desserts are a sweet ending to a satisfying meal, with plenty of options to choose from. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, making it a great spot for gatherings with friends or family. Every visit feels like a feast thanks to the quality and variety of food on offer. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in a hearty, flavorful meal where you can truly eat to your heart’s content!

The barbecue is pretty good, with a great variety of food. However, I feel that the quality of the meat and seafood doesn't quite match the price. There are also very limited options for the hot pot. The service could be better since they are very busy. I had to ask for a grill change several times. But I do like that they offer dessert.

Stepping into this self-service barbecue restaurant, one is immediately enveloped by a warm and cozy atmosphere. The smiles of the service staff are like the warm rays of the spring sun, and their meticulous service makes every customer feel the warmth of home. The plates of food served on the table seem to be a perfect blend of nature and the chef's ingenuity. The barbecue sizzles on the grill, giving off an alluring aroma. The moment it enters the mouth, the tender meat bursts with flavor on the taste buds, making people intoxicated and leaving an unforgettable aftertaste. This is not only a feast for the senses but also a balm for the soul.

Boon Dee is a commonly used Thai term meaning good luck and prosperity. Boon Dee BBQ serves Moo Ka Ta which is a popular Thai communal dish with part hot pot and part grill. They feature a variety of fresh meats, vegetables, and noodles cooked in broth or on a sizzling skillet. Walk to the buffet and choose your protein. Cook it up, eat it up, and go for refills! Everything from appetizers to meats to veggies to desserts are all amazingly delicious. Their attentive staffs change out the grill frequently and top off the pot with broth. Boon Dee BBQ’s social dish is meant to be shared with everyone so bring your friends and family and come enjoy the traditional Thai hot pot and BBQ now!

Food -food was pretty good and fairly priced. The meats weren’t the freshest in my opinion, but it was still good. My favorite was the marinated short rib. I also like that they had a big section of other selections and it was all labeled. Service -Service was perfect. The waitresses were very attentive to our needs and came by every five minutes to take plates that were not needed no more Atmosphere-I took a star off the atmosphere because the place is pretty tiny and It would be easier if it was a little bigger for the customers to get around. I found myself bumping into people Because of lack of space. Price - $40 each person for unlimited barbecue and hot pot I believe We had 90 minutes

Thai BBQ and Hotpot! What an amazing combo. $40pp for 90min. And best part IMO: it's self serve. No need to order and wait on them to bring you the items, you go and grab it yourself. However much you want and when you want. Service was amazing (constantly clean grill/ remove dishes) and food was great! They had a fried food station ( fish was good!). Meat selection was great. Had bulgogi, ribs, pork belly, and plenty more! Vegetable options were plentiful too (tofu, lettuce, mushroom), and they had kimchi too. Sauce station selection was abundant as well, my favorite the peanut sauce. AND the garlic rice was a must try . Lots of different varieties of dessert as well ( ice cream, shaved ice, cheese cake, chocolate cake? ) We came right when they opened so it wasn't packed but they definitely filled up real quick. Make sure to make a reservation if you can! Definitely a great spot for big or small parties so check it out!

Clean interior, lots of good options, very nice service. The servers are super nice and outshine the food somehow. Not much to say other than that. The hot pot and grill combo is a unique combination. The desserts are varied as well.

If you're a fan of Thai cuisine and love the interactive experience of hot pot, then Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta is a must-visit. This restaurant offers a culinary adventure that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you craving more. The moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The star of the show, of course, is the hot pot. The buffet is filled with a wide array of fresh and high-quality ingredients. There's a selection of meats, including beef, pork, chicken, and seafood. You can also choose from vegetables and noodles. The beauty of hot pot is that you can cook your ingredients exactly to your liking. Simply add your chosen ingredients to cook until they are tender and cooked through. You can customize the flavor of your dish by adding different sauces. In addition to the hot pot, the restaurant also offers a variety of other dishes. There's a selection of appetizers, such as scallion pancakes, shrimp crackers, chicken and veggie dumplings. For dessert, there were Thai style shaved ice, cake slices (the chocolate one was really good), ice cream and watermelon slices. The service at Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta is exceptional and top notch - everyone is on top of it to ensure you don't have to go looking for them. I really appreciated how prepared they were as each table includes all the utensil items needed for this dining experience, so there was no reason to ask. This is a 90 minute dining experience, so each minute counts. The staff is friendly and attentive. They were always present to clean up and ensure that we had everything we needed, leaving us with a memorable dining experience. Note that drinks are not included with the hot pot, but it is fairly priced. I highly recommend visiting Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta. With its wide variety of fresh ingredients and exceptional service, it's a restaurant that will leave you wanting to come back for more.

Lots of meat and veggie selections. Ready to eat food was great as well. Thai spices and marinades available. Staff were very attentive and changed the grill often. Love that you can do BBQ and hotpot at the same time. Dessert options were nice with shaved ice and ice cream. Spots fill up quick so I would definitely come early or make a reservation. They are strict on the duration of the buffet.

For AYCE THAI EXPERIENCE! I'm here for it, the food is definitely delicious and marinated well! Service is pretty fast and they are attentive! The ambiance is fitting to the place. Definitely love it here, great place for friends and dates.

So rare to find a Thai bbq/hotpot place! Usually they're Korean or Chinese. The flavors were very good! Such a big selection of meats. Loved the sauce selection as well- very southeast Asian tastes. The servers were very attentive and frequently changed our grilling plate because it was getting too burnt (when you grill marinaded meat, this tends to happen often). We went on a weekend and it was AYCE $40/pp for 90 min. The shaved ice was a nice dessert at the end. Would come back more often if it wasn't so far from me!

I came here for dinner yesterday and it was a great experience. It is a buffet very clean and you select what you want to eat. They have a time limit which I can not remember but it was enough for me to eat various rounds of food. The staff is great, they check on you regularly and also refill the food regularly. There are alot of different food options. They even had shaved ice which I was quite tasty. I recommend this place to everyone. It is a great family place or a solo date.

Excited in trying AYCE Thai BBQ and Boon Dee made a great first impression. Bright and sparkling interior. Good service when called upon. Choice of cooking on the grill or in its surrounding hot pot. There were a wide variety of cuts of meats, love the Thai marinated short ribs and pork jaws. Plenty of seafood available, sweet were their shrimp. Ample amount of veggies. Eggs and Corn "Soufflé" in tin cups ready to be steamed. It's definitely a spot I will be coming back to with family and friends in the area. Hmm, it'd be lovely if there's one in Manhattan. CHEERS!

Great place in the neighborhood. The staff are attentive, friendly, and provide great service. A variety of items to pick from to bbq. You'll have hot pot items and regular grill items. All were super fresh. Loved the kalbi, steak, chicken satay, noodles, veggies, tofu, and pork belly. Nice selection of sauces and a ample section for appetizers that included dumplings, scallion pancake, and fried shrimp. Go for the garlic fried rice as that was good as well. Loved the dessert section and friendly staff that helped us put together the shaved ice. The bubble tea with chestnut shaved ice with syrup and condensed milk was refreshing. Great price point and will definitely be back.

Thai style bbq and hot pot near St. John's University - we went on a weekday lunch and there was no wait. The waiters said that on the weekends or dinner there usually is a wait and reservations are recommended. For an AYCE spot the quality of meats is really good. They have a variety of marinated and unmarinated meat that caters to the pickiest of eaters (like my mom). They even have a hot bar for Thai appetizers and dishes like Basil Chicken and fried egg and chive pancakes. For dessert, there's slices of cakes and fruits in the fridge. If mangos are in season, they'll offer mango stick rice. If not, you'll get Thai style shaved ice. All in all a wonderful experience and the staff were all very pleasant.

As a restaurant as whole I would go again as the service was top notch. Went Saturday night with a reservation. The overall area is quite small with kids its a little bit of a hassle to move around. The food itself doesn't particular do grilling at the best nor does it do hot pot at its best. The snake fruit taste like cough medicine. I do like the selection of dessert (has shaved ice, cake slices and ice cream). For kids its great as they are free under 38 inches and they have a good selection of thai flavor fries/rolls/nuggets. Great tom yum soup! We ordered two pitchers of beer between two people and it was a hella good time. its self serve buffet with no instructions on what goes on the grill or hot pot. There sauce selection is good but not Chinese not level good. Overall I would come again but if you are looking for both bbq and hotpot.

I came on a Saturday for lunch with a friend and there was no wait. I was surprised at the quality and variety considering this is $40 Ayce. My favorite was the Tom Yom soup, steamed eggs, spicy beef and the mango sticky rice! My only complaint is that 90 minute is short between the time you take to choose your food and grill it. At the end you can get a gatcha price (1 per table). We got a free mouthwash which was pretty random Overall I am definitely planning to come back and take friends here!

My daughter's friend recommended this place, so we decided to try it out. Ayce Thai bbq & hotpot? Yes, please! They don't take reservations, but I called ahead to ask for availability, and they confirmed that there is, so I made the 25 min drive to Queens. We arrived at 5:30 pm on a Saturday, table for 5, and got seated within 5 minutes. This place is buffet style- with a wide selection of meats & seafood as well as veggies, appetizers, and desserts to choose from. Wish they had more sauce options tho. I really enjoyed the bulgogi, short ribs, Thai beef, thick pork belly, and some of the fried apps like the crab rangoon, chive pancake, dumplings and wings. All the servers were very friendly & attentive, and the music was great. The girls and I had a great experience here, the food did not disappoint and we ended our dinner with a lot of desserts. The cheesecake & shaved ice are so good! A little on the pricier side, especially when you're with 4 preteens, but nonetheless, worth it. I'll be back!

We made a reservation for a group of 11 on a Friday night and the table was ready upon arrival! It was our first time trying Thai bbq/hot pot, and I will say the experience is similar to kbbq or shabu shabu. They offer a variety of meats, veggies, and hot cooked Thai food. Every so often, staff come and change the grill. You get 90 min to eat which I think is plenty of time. It's about $40/person not including tip and tax.

Okay so to start off this place is amazing I genuinely think this is one of the best AYCE places in Queens and easily the best BBQ of any kind I have been to so far, I live in Flushing near main street and it was well worth the commute. The service was prompt and friendly, the crowd was very diverse and everyone felt welcome, they cleaned the grill and made sure our table was clear without disrupting the meal experience those are the main things I'd not as you end up cooking the food yourself (which is a huge plus imo.) The atmosphere of the place is not something I care about but to touch on it I'd describe it as clean, comfortable and easy to navigate even if there are several people getting up it's not too cramped. So now to the meat and potatoes; the food. Every cut we had at the buffet each was prepared well and tasted fresh and of good quality I don't think there was anything that we had that was bad at all so please try everything yourselves, Boon Dee has AYCE garlic rice and desserts as well and I liked that there was something for everyone, I'd highly suggest adding some cilantro into your soup as it really enhances the flavor but find your own little additions as you see fit obviously. Our favorite cut of meat was the thai style pork jowl which was actually crack I think we ate out the entire portion at the buffet ourselves (sorry!) but the other huge standouts were the chicken gizard and short ribs which were AMAZING in my opinion. One thing I'd note is the grill does take a second in order heat up as to be expected so maybe start with some smaller cuts of meat and be a little patient as they have a wide variety of options you can eat in the meantime. Please come here. Like actually.

I came here for lunch on a Sunday with a group of 4 people. The place was a bit of a trek but I liked that it's not in Flushing since it would be much busier. It's $40 (not including tax and tip) for AYCE hot pot and BBQ. I like that the grill was in the middle and the shallow hot pot section was around the grill since it's easier to scoop items out. I also like that the BBQ and hot pot items were buffet style so you can try items to see if they're actually good without getting a full portion. My favorite items were the pork satay, the Thai pork jowl, the Thai beef, and the cheese corn from the BBQ section. I also liked the garlic fried rice, the basil pork, and shrimp spring rolls from the cooked food section. You can make your own pad kra pow with rice, basil pork, and a fried egg on top. Their fried eggs were actually still runny. I also had Thai shaved ice, lychee rose chiffon cake, coconut pandan chiffon cake, fruit, and ice cream for dessert. The shaved ice and coconut pandan cake were my favorite items. Service was very friendly and attentive even for AYCE. I have to say, this place had the best quality and variety of food items compared to other Asian (Korean/Chinese) AYCE hot pot/BBQ places I've been to in NYC. I would definitely come back!

This is a Thai BBQ AYCE buffet and I was full the entire night. There are a lot of protein options including lamb, beef, chicken and pork. There's also all the basic veggie options and seafood options. This place reminds me of Picnic Garden because of the layout of food. And if you love sauce, you'll be in heaven. I really enjoyed their short ribs and their garlic rice, which I tried to eat as little as possible with my pad krapow and chive pancake. The corn with cheese and eggs are such a fun experience cooking and enjoying. I especially liked the shaved ice station which lets you make your own ice; this would be really fun for kids too. However, beware of the restroom going downstairs, it was really smelly from the entrance. Parking was easy when we went, there were parking in the back of the restaurant and also street parking. The service was really attentive, they made sure to clear our tables and change our grilling plates.

I la la la love this place . I came here a few times with friends. They have all you can eat bbq and veggies as well as a mini got appetizer buffet. They also have a nice and simple dessert station which contains of shaved ice cup and a a range of slice cakes . They have a great selection of raw meats , veggies and fish that are for cooking on the grill and under the grill they have a kind of trivet for the soup broth to cook the veggies and noodles . They also have fun boozey drinks available . Can't wait to go again

Took the New York equivalent of a full on road trip all the heck the way out to Fresh Meadows Queens just to try this intriguing Thai hot pot BBQ. I've been to quite a few Chinese hot pots and Korean BBQs but never have I seen this mix, this genius invention, of a hot pot BBQ. An invention I can only describe as pure genius, a gift from the mind of some great thinker who had a vision of a utopian future in which meat and noodles could cook together as one. As equals in a world that serves to only drive them apart. Bless this mind, Yelp. Anyhow, I thought the food was pretty good. There's a buffet of options you can go load up on as you please (you have 90 minutes to go hog wild, but if you leave uncooked food they charge you extra so don't be wasteful), from pork and beef to squid and mussels. There's even some tofu and chicken options, not to mention many vegetables. There's also a pre-cooked buffet with sort of classic pan-Asian options, and a dessert stand with DIY shaved ice, slices of cheesecake and cuts of fruit. Everything we ate (which was darn near all of it) was good, though I'm not sure anything was outstanding in as far as my hour commute from Brooklyn. But I had a fun time overall, and probably would come back here more often if I lived closer. The prices are fair and the experience is a joy if nothing else!

Great neighborhood spot, staff is very friendly and helpful. We eat halal / veggie / fish and there were limited options but delicious. Must tell them you can do boiling water and not chicken broth, you can add sauces to the water to make it more of a ramen broth, and there are several noodle options and veggies and fish balls. There are ready made fried options like scallion pancake and crab Rangoon (delicious) and the little shots of mango sticky rice and DIY shaved iced are amazing. For $40 per person we had alot of swai fish with delicious peanut sauce and shrimp and squid, would love kosher/halal meat or more seafood if possible. Garlic rice was also delicious! For the meat eaters it's totally awesome and worth it!

we came here for a birthday dinner party of six people. was told there was a 90-minute limit when we made the reservation. I think this a genius invention, mixing Thai Chinese, and Korean barbecue together. my favorite was the marbling Galbi beef and cumin Lamb. Crab Rangoon and garlic rice was also very good. my least favorite was the shrimp roll and the pork belly. for the dessert choice are, make your own shave ice, chocolate cake, cheesecake, and Thai sponge cake. since we came in on the mid week, the service was excellent and they also did not rush us. We definitely spend more than 90 minutes there

I've never been to a Thai BBQ & hotpot place before, and once I heard about this place, I had to check it out. I made reservations since it was on a Friday night. But that wasn't necessary as there were plenty of tables to use for walk-ins. However, if you have a fairly large party, I advise making reservations in advance because those get taken up. They say that you get timed for 90 minutes, but I'm not so sure if that's true. But there are signs everywhere stating that you will get charged. We kept that in mind while dining. There was an explanation given to you when you arrive. How everything is included but the extra drinks like alcoholic or non alcoholic. Just water is free. I ordered a white wine, which was just okay. I got the pre made food in the back, and I enjoyed all of it. In the center of the restaurant are the meat and vegetable dishes to cook on the grill or put in the soup, which is the hotpot. It's an interesting concept, but I would call this more of a bbq experience versus a hotpot. All in all, I'll probably return, but much later on.

Just have some food, pretty good spot, friendly staff. They are on point making sure everything's good. Easy access to the food a lot of good desserts. Did Jasmine hot tea very great as well can't complain. Good spot recommend

Came here with a party of 6 and they all sat us on one grill only. Since there was a time limit of 90 minutes, we couldn't cook much for the 6 in the party. Also, the flames were not on that high so it took a really long time to actually cook the meats as well. We had asked if we can get extra time since we had a party of 6 and we were all hungry still and they said no as they have alot of people waiting. So I would recommend splitting into groups of 3, since even for a party of 4 I don't think you'll get your moneys worth since the gas isn't on that high and it takes a while for it to cook. I ended up filling up my stomach with their cooked food options since cooking again was taking SO long. I had their dumplings and wings and fries but that's not what I would like to pay for in an AYCE. All in all I would come back but with a smaller party. The food we did cook was good! But the hotpot portion took forever to cook as I'm not sure if it's meant to use to cook veggie since it wasn't really boiling

I came as a party of 2 at around 7p and was seated immediately, just in time to beat the rush. As soon as we were seated, the experience was explained, our broth was poured and it was time to feast! The chicken broth is bland at first but gets its flavor with time. The selection of meats and veggies was excellent. It's gets crowded but the staff is super attentive at keeping everything replenished. The hot food section was a little lacking for me. I tried one of everything and will probably never go back to that section, like ever. There's just too much goodness at the other table to waste my time and stomach space All in all, 90mins was enough for us. The service was superb. Although it was self serve, they were constantly checking on us and cleaning our table as we go. Everything tasted and looked fresh. Everything was kept clean. For the price, you really cannot beat this. I only wished there was more space overall in the restaurant and more broth options. A wide soup moat would've been useful too. I would go back another early afternoon

Thai AYCE in queens! Count me in. $40 is reasonable and they have hot pot too! So many meats and veggies to choose from. The desserts you have to get also! Would definitely go back and it's good for a big party. They don't take reservations and the staff are super nice!

Can't make up your mind between Thai, Korean and Chinese cuisine? Look no further, Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta is a BBQ and Hotpot combination that focuses on a 1) Korean style bbq, 2) Northern Chinese copper pot hotpot with 3) Thai flavours and seasonings. The drinks and sauce are Thai focused as well. Taste: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambience: 4/5 Value for Money: 5/5 We had: 1) Galbi (Short-rib): the Galbi was phenomenal, greatly marinated and the marbling was exquisite. Quality top tier and I hope it never goes away 2) Steamed egg: most joints put a ton of salt on their eggs, they don't. 3) Corn: great flavours 4) Pork Belly: taste as it should 5) Lamb: gamey like lamb, but was good! 6) Squid: Good crunch and recommended with the Seafood sauce 7) Other meats: Thai seasoned and good! 8) Dessert: Shaved Ice - tastes gimmicky but the herbal jelly is not bad. Cakes are not bad! All in all, a good spot, well recommended, easy parking near by and I hope it doesn't lose its quality.

Boon Dee Thai bbq was out of this world. This is the only All you can eat Thai bbq and hot pot in the city and for such a reasonable price of $39.98!! The choices of meats were endless from pork to chicken to beef! They also have a selection of seafood options too. They have a good amount of dipping sauces, and veggies for the hotpot. They also have a good variety of appetizers. I really enjoyed the crab Rangoon's. The staff was welcoming and friendly. Now the dessert station was fun ! They have a create your own Thai ice which i felt after mixing all the flavors it had a bubblegum after taste! The mango with coconut sticky rice was delicious !!! Boon dee just made 1 year so to celebrate they're running a promo till the end of April, called GACHAPON SURPISE. You place a quarter in a gumball machine and win. I won a cream soda syrup ! Make sure too check this place out !! You won't regret it!

Standard hot pot/BBQ fare with a clean, modern decor. The main problem is that the grill is not set up in a way so that the meat juices trickle down to the soup pot, which is what true mookata is supposed to do. They just fall into the flame below. Also, the soup broth is weirdly sweet and not very tasty.

More of a 3.5 We arrived around 5:30 on a Saturday evening and were seated right away; by the time we left, around 7pm, there were a lot of people waiting for a table and a full house. The space while I wouldn't call small, felt a bit cramped when trying to walk around to get to and from the buffet. There was a lot of side stepping to get past staff and other customers. There were also 'stations' for the staff to clear empty plates right next to tables in the aisles which I didn't love. A plus was even though this is a BBQ yourself place, I wasn't left with smelly clothes and hair. On the back of the restaurant there is a buffet with hot items, rice, soup and a bunch of apps like chive cakes, chicken wings, etc. The cold buffet has lots of stuff, veggies, kimchi, noodles, multiple types of beef, chicken, pork and seafood. There is even some offal available. At the end of the buffet there is a little sauce station, my favorites were the Thai BBQ sauce and the spicy vinegar. As far as the seafood goes I didn't care for the squid( too chewy) or the shrimp (a little mealy). All of the meats were good...while some things were marinated nothing was overly salted or spiced. The staff was good about swapping out the grills that got too dirty and kept the hotpot part filled. Desserts included shave ice with jelly, cheesecake and tiramisu. Overall it was a good experience, but personally I don't enjoy getting up and down to grab food so much.

Finally got the chance to try this spot out. We went on a weekday where there weren't any crowds. Let me put this out that the team here makes sure you get the experience! They were polite and patient incase you never done this before. If you ever get tired of eating KBBQ. This would be an alternative. Heck might even be a replacement! The meat marinates are perfect. It honestly doesn't even need any sauce! Speaking of sauces! Their house special sauce is on point! Definitely giving me that aromatic Thai spices. Sweet, savory, a bit of tang and a bit of kick. You won't regret getting some on the side. One suggestion. I would grill the non marinate meats or the lighter marinations FIRST! before going for their Galbi. Their Galbi tend to burn the grill faster cause of the sugar i'm assuming. But each to their own. We noticed that we lasted way longer with the grill while grilling other things other then their Galbi Ribs. Let me tell you their Galbi ribs taste great! It's not your typical korean style marination. They did their own twist and that's a well deserved credit! Their cook foods and desserts are especially a plus! With variety selections and in even making your own ABC ICY! Their grill selection is definitely the star of the show. As for the hotpot around it. It's a great addition to dunk your veggies and noods in. Also their broth is flavorful already! So not needed to add additional sauce! I would definitely come back! Great for groups and small parties!

I went for an early Saturday dinner with 3 friends. I love that we can make reservations but it didn't seem like we needed to at that time. They got great cuts of meat (all kinds- beef, pork, lamb and seafood). My fave cut was the marinated beef short ribs (Korean kalbi). It was not overly fatty and well marinated without being too sweet. It was so good and great quality for an AYCE. I also loved their garlic fried rice and who doesn't like egg soufflé and cheese corn! I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and what sets this place apart from other AYCE bbq places is their desserts! I loved the shaved ice to cool you down, the mango sticky rice had great chunks of super sweet ripe mangos and they also had a great red velvet cake. The only thing I wish they had was a tossed salad of some kind to eat with my meats. Service was great and they also have soju, beer and wine. I would definitely go back!

Relatively new Thai bbq place and it doesn't disappoint. While I am used to Korean and Japanese BBQs restaurants, Boon Dee was a welcome new take, as this was my first time having Thai BBQ. Although some of the dishes and meats overlap with Korean BBQ, they were tasty nonetheless. The hotpot portion on the outer ring of the burner was an interesting addition where you can cook some leafy greens, fishballs, and other varieties to balance out the meal, so it's not all meat forward. Our server was friendly and attentive, will be back!

Been here about 3 to 4 times now and here's my updated review. Service needs work / there needs to be more staff; so many times I was looking around trying to find someone to swap our burnt grill. Maybe a doorbell system would help? In addition, the wait-list system is not very good or reliable. They have implemented a QR code which is great, but you cannot check your status unless you download an app that's only in the Apple store. There are many traffic jams and people pushing and too much plastic waste with the dessert. Each slide of watermelon is on a plate covered in plastic wrap. Chances are that it's to prevent dessert from emptying too quickly, but still. Their short rib is the best meat there and highly recommend it. Sauce bar has updated and hours have extended. They are very strict on your time limit. Restroom has at least one broken toilet flusher. Also someone had a small dog with them in the restaurant. I like taking new people here, but wouldn't come here without new folks for the novelty of it. Also they no longer had mango sticky rice which was the best dessert

$39.95 per person for 90 mins all you can eat bbq. Food choices were not abundant. It's about 12 different marinaded beef, pork, raw shrimps (the type of $3.99 per pound quality). But those meats were just repeated Thai marinade, Korean marinade or non marinade. Veggies choices were also just ok, the usual cheap types. Some marinaded meats were high in msg that I can tell from the dry mouth afterwards). Some meats were highly sugary. The Sangria (happy hour before 7pm) was the highlight of the meal. I tried because I love Thai food but I didn't find much Thai essence from this place. They have so called "Thai seafood sauce & the Thai bbq sauce" both were diluted. No different from regular Korean all you eat bbq or Chinese type of bbq & hot pot. I won't return. Lack of real Thai experience.

Service was great, they celebrate my bf bday bring us a cake on the house and singed with us, music was good too and the place looks very clean

Yo, please just go if you're thinking about it. It's amazing! Thai style bbq/shabu hybrid (aka Moo Ka Ta) with a section of some popular Thai foods and appetizers in the back. They serve up some soju and korean usuals in terms of bbq, if you still can't fully part with kbbq yet. I can get basil stir fry with a fried sunny side up and some crispy Thai chive pancakes to start here (there's moreeee) and then end the night off with some custard pudding mango sticky rice and diy Thai bingsu here (shaved ice dessert). I'm never going back to a kbbq restaurant... I'm now converted to a TBBQ regular!

Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta offers an exquisite dining experience where the rich flavors of Thai BBQ and hotpot collide.

There is a great selection of thai appetziers and dessert.

With the majority of cook at your table BBQ spots being Korean I appreciate having a little change of pace having one nearby with Thai influence! I feel that the current $39.99 is a good value for everything you get. Here's a bit of a rundown: The decor is very nice and the wood booths are comfortable, but unfortunately when you have 3 to a bench its awkward to get up and down being the 1st person in. I like that this is a self serve so you can get as little or as much of an item as you want instead of fixed order where you may not want to eat everything. Everything was fresh - some of my party thought some of the meats lack seasoning/being marinated. I didn't think so, but then again isn't that what the sauces do? Give it the flavor you want! The cumin lamb was prob my favorite - lamb and goat are usually my favorite meats. Par cook the seafood items in the hot pot - they tend to stick to the unseasoned grills. You can finish on the grill if you wish. I like the hot pot moat - seasoning from the grill gets added to the soup. I like having the combo action. We wound up with a very flavorful broth towards the end! I enjoyed the premade sauces and stuck to the Thai seafood and bbq sauces, but you can make your own if you wish. The prepared food bar is a treat to add variety. I especially liked the coconut eggplant/chicken curry and tom yum soup. TIP: Leave a little in your bowl to enhance the flavor of the hot pot soup/items you take The service was very good keeping things clean and moving. Initially we were told about the 90 min limit and that the clock was ticking, but we had a leisurely meal and we were not kicked out when we went over or the overcharge enforced. Much appreciated! Mango sticky rice is a very enjoyable desert. They have make your own shaved ice. This place is a bit off the beaten path - parking is not bad in the area. Hopefully they get support from the Queens community!

Unique Thai BBQ and hot pot experience! I finally dined here with a group of friends and had a nice meal. The idea of Thai BBQ was interesting and we wanted to see what the hype was. Similar to picnic garden, there is a buffet style setup for diners to select the meats and veggies to be grilled or cooked via hotpot. The options were pretty standard cuts of meat like marinated pork, short ribs, chicken, etc. There was also a buffet style section with cooked Thai foods such as Tom yum soup, green curry, chive pancakes, and other fried appetizers. I really enjoyed the green curry since it was actually spicy. As for the cooking, it was a standard Korean style BBQ grill, but had a ring of soup surrounding it. The broth wasn't too flavorful and the hot pot experience was kinda underwhelming. We put fishballs, mushrooms and veggies to flavor the soup but would have preferred if it was a Tom yum broth to begin with. For the BBQ meats, they must be eaten with the various homemade Thai sauces prepared to truly appreciate the experience. I really enjoyed the sauces but didn't really see how it could really be justified as Thai BBQ. Desserts were flavored shaved ice with various fruit toppings and of course mango sticky rice. Overall, it was a pricey and delicious meal. I won't be racing to return but wouldn't mind returning in the future. It's worth a visit in my books!

This place is a no frills AYCE spit with great selection of meats for both grill and hotpot style. With Thai influenced spices, it gives you a different taste than your traditional Korean BBQ places. An absolute gem to visit with respectable value pricing. The Mango sticky rice dessert is something you want to save room for when it's available. Definitely come for lunch or dinner.

Awesome AYCE restaurant that recently opened up. This is the first Thai BBQ that I have been to, and it didn't disappoint. They have an appetizer station with an array of hot items like chive pancake, curry, chicken wings, basil ground pork, dumplings, ragoons, and shrimp. It's nice to have these premade items while you're cooking up the meats, and I enjoyed the texture and taste of these dishes which all tasted pretty authentic. Their raw meat station has many different types of each type of meat including beef, pork, chicken, and seafood. They have several different marinated meats as well. My favorite meat was the Short Rib, which was marinated very well, with a good amount of sweetening. We also enjoyed eating the thick Pork Belly, but they also have thin slices as well. At the table, there is a central grill with an outer ring with boiling broth so that you can grill the meat as well as prep hot pot items as well. We liked the change of pace, and as opposed to most other BBQ/Hot Pot restaurants, there is no up-charge to eat both. We liked boiling the fish balls, mushrooms, noodles and veggies in the hot pot. Finally, they have a large selection of desserts including Mango Sticky Rice which was simply delicious! They also had shaved ice and cheese cake. The service was really good. The servers were very personable and attentive to us. The restaurant is also very large and can accommodate for large parties. They kept the restaurant nice and clean. $40 per person, which is worth it for the variety that they provide! Will come again!

My friends and I came here on a Thursday around 7:30p - place was pretty busy but we were seated right away. This place is AYCE for $40 but you have to go get your own food to cook and then cook your own food. I would say for first timers, it was kind of confusing what we had to do since no one really explained it to us. There was a huge variety of bbq meats/ seafood to pick from and was actually surprised they also had beef short ribs as well. They also had Thai inspired dipping sauces, vegetables for hotpot, warm appetizers section, and a bunch of desserts i.e mango stick rice aka my favorite! The meats were a tad bit too sweet for my likings but overall, I really liked this place! The concept is similar to kbbq but thai inspired and you can also eat hot pot items at the same time. Would definitely be coming back!

Clean and friendly staff. AYCE BBQ and interesting concept. Thai-style BBQ hot pot and gril. A lot of selection of meat. Also, nice cooked appetizers. (spring rolls and some Thai cooking ) A lot of customers are going after short ribs. Good price for AYCE. Define We will go back again.

Thai BBQ makes its debut here in Queens. I have to say, I've never had it but I'm quickly becoming a fan. Similar to KBBQ, this is AYCE with a large selection of meats (marinated and unmarinated) along with an array of cooked foods like chive cakes, pork with basil and tom yum soup. The meat quality here is excellent. My favorite items here are the Thai marinated pork and Thai marinated beef. There's also beef short ribs as well as some seafood so you definitely have choices. There's soup underneath the grill where you're free to cook some instant noodles to complement your meal. Dessert is also interesting - mango with sticky rice, cake, fresh fruit and shaved ice. Costs are a bit of a splurge at $40 a head but the service is great and the place incredibly clean. Parking can be tough but side residential streets should make it easier. Two thumbs up.

Food was excellent, but I was so disappointed for one thing. One tallest waiter had too much attitude. I always come here, but I will stop for now. You should train him not to have too much attitude like that. The way he talks it's like he is the owner and doesn't care anything.

This is a great AYCE bbq spot if you want something different from the typical Korean bbq. There's so many options, it's clean, and the appetizers and desserts set this place apart. This place has hotpot and bbq together as part of the price per person. The hotpot is a little underwhelming for the broth doesn't have much flavor. The vegetables in hotpot broth brings out the broth flavor. There are lots of meats with different marinades and some seafood available as well. My favorite are the corn cheese and steamed egg. The sauces available give it the Thai flavors that this place promotes. There are some spicy sauces and some sweet/sour sauces. It is quite flavorful. The desserts available are cheesecake, sliced cake, shaved ice with jelly toppings, and mango sticky rice. The mango sticky rice is worth the wait. I would definitely come back in the future for a special celebration.

I've been here twice already & I am obsessed. Boon Dee is a Thai-style AYCE BBQ spot that incorporates table top cooking elements of Korean BBQ with veggie and noodle goodness of Chinese hot pot & top it all off with fish sauce-laden marinades and delicious tropical desserts. I think the best quality of this restaurant is the freshness of the meat and seafood. Most AYCE spots serve pretty poor quality cuts, but Boon Dee always has nice chunks of good quality meats. The rotation of the food is high, so sometimes you may be waiting a little bit for an item but you will have fresh food to cook at the table. I love the marinated meats, especially the Thai style ones, which is a flavor that is not easy to find around here. I can also vouch for the kalbi and bulgogi, which is not overly sweet or overly salty as they tend to be when you go to an American restaurant. I will say that because the BBQ options are so high quality and fun, the hotpot stuff is just kinda there to fill in the veggie quota. The broth is not super flavorful, but it is nice to be able to cook the veggies and the noodles. For the quality and amount of food, I think this price is worth it, though it might be on the pricier side.

This restaurant deserves a 4.7/5. Local parking was also quite easy to find in the vicinity. I love the fact that there's a bbq hotpot AYCE, it's been amazing to have the variety with the ability to satisfy two cravings at once. I came here to catch up with my friends, and all of us enjoyed the experience and the food. My friend loaded up on shrimps though, which may not be a good deal overall at an AYCE place, but I understand why, they are absolutely delicious. I would definitely come back and give this place another visit if I am ever in the area again.
