Moon Korean BBQ

We loved our dinner at Moon Korean BBQ! It’s our favourite spot to grab Korean food downtown. The hot stone bibimbap is incredible! The food arrived quickly and was very fresh. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Calgary!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is hands down the best Korean BBQ! My family always loves coming here — the food is always fresh, flavorful, and served hot. The meats are high quality, the side dishes are delicious, and the staff are super friendly and attentive. Every visit feels special, and it has definitely become our go-to place for family meals. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic and satisfying Korean BBQ!

I went to this place to pick up their Korean pork bone soup, and honestly, it was the worst one I’ve had in Canada, no exaggeration. First of all, the soup wasn’t spicy at all—which is fine, I could accept that—but the real problem was that none of the ingredients had any flavor. The pork meat had absolutely no taste, the potato skins weren’t even cleaned off, and the potatoes themselves had a strange taste. On top of that, they weren’t cooked soft or seasoned properly, so they were actually crunchy to bite into. If you’re planning to try other dishes here, maybe it could be worth a shot, but I strongly recommend avoiding the pork bone soup.

Outstanding. Moon Korean bbq is the freshest in the city, every item I tried was absolutely amazing. The server was lovely and very helpful at making suggestions. The side dishes were wonderful as well!

The food isn’t as good as it used to be. The portions are still decent, but not as generous as before which is understandable given the rising food costs and the effort to keep meals affordable. However, the miso soup was quiet watery and salty. Also, there were mosquitos under the table, which made the experience less pleasant. The lady serving us was nice so I’m giving her stars for that.

I’ve been to Moon Korean BBQ a few times now, and it never disappoints. This time I had the bibimbap with tofu and it was so good — fresh ingredients, flavorful, and super satisfying. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, perfect for a casual meal or dining with friends.

The portion is too small. The seafood pancake is tasteless The dishes are full of the taste from Korean BBQ sauce which can easily to buy from any Asian grocery shop. I believe 4.5 stars from 800+ Google reviews is an effect from the restaurant Google-Review Promotion. To me, the food does not worth the money.

Staff are very friendly and have caring service. The food is fresh and flavourful with generous portions. Our favourites are the beef short rib lunch dosirak and moons special!

The Bulgogi hot pot for two was delicious and portion size was adequate. You order via the touchscreen at the table. Service was a bit slow because they were very busy on a Friday night around supper and a Chinese lantern festival was going on 2 blocks away. Not the quietest place for dinner but you won't have to yell to hear each other, either. Pleasant, utilitarian interior.

Fun place for a group dinner. We got the moon special and the crispy chicken, which was plenty for our group of 5. The servers were attentive, clearing plates and refilling water without any prompting. The food came out hot at steady intervals and was delicious. Loved the seafood pancakes, japchae, and crispy chicken. The tteokbokki was tasty, but pretty spicy for our group. Would go again.

I can't think of a better way to enjoy our first meal in Calgary. After getting up at 4:00 a.m. to get to the airport, this lunch felt as comforting as home-cooking. Service was wonderful and the food tasted authentic. Especially with the high inflation rate in the States, this meal was a bargain.

Went for dinner with my family, and EVERYTHING was absolutely delicious, with very generous portions. We ordered the Tteokboki Hot Pot, Moon Special with LA Kalbi, and the Kimchi Jjigae, and everything was wonderful. As Korean-Americans from LA, we eat at a lot of Korean restaurants, and we would highly recommend this place, for the great food and friendly service, all for a very reasonable price.

This place would be in my heavy rotation if I lived in Calgary. We were prepared for authentic, delicious Korean food, and Moon delivers there. But we were shocked that the service was kind and didn't rush our dinner! Absolutely recommend. If you've never done bbq you may want to ask for help cutting meets with scissors (attn white folks).

They were busy for Sunday dinner service when we came in. We were seated right away, the service remained excellent for the rest of the meal. We got the moon special and it is a lot of food. So delicious! I opted for the spicy bulgogi, kiwi salad dressing, and plain chicken. So delicious! Definitely deserving of a 5 star rating and more. Would love to visit again before our stay in Calgary ends.

I've tried a lot of diff dishes from this restaurant and as expected, the best is their bbq meat. My family enjoyed the bibimbap, everything else on the menu is alright, the cold noodles and rose tteokbokki wasn't for me, but their side dishes and extras are super yummy! I would recommend their moon special while its a little bit pricy, it fills you up and lets you try a little bit of everything. The service is very good! I also enjoyed the privacy between the tables, good late night date spot.

Authentic Korean food!! (Korean-American here) Bibimbap in stone pot (dolsot) and spicy beef soup (yukaejang) was delicious!!!! Was a very welcomed meal after touring around Calgary. Cozy restaurant with sweet decor, felt like I was in a kdrama scene. Definitely will come back if I'm in town again!

We ordered take out from Moon Korean BBQ after doing a quick search for something nearby. We ordered 2 of the beef short rib meals, 1 soy garlic chicken, 1 japchae and 1 large kimchi (which wasn't very large) which my husband cooked and mixed with the beef short ribs to give more flavour. The food was ok, not the best and not the worst that we have tried. The japchae was ok, I wish it had more shitake mushrooms. The chicken was delicious and crispy, good flavour. The beef short ribs just fell a little short when we first tried them. So my husband decided to cook them with the kimchi and then they were really yummy! I thought the price was a little steep for the amount of food. The price in my picture was before I added the second beef ribs meal. Total was around $90-$95. The service was very friendly tho!!!

I love this place. The prices are reasonable. They have really good lunch deals. I came here with a colleague for lunch. I got the garlic soy beef short rib bento box for $15.50. It was an awesome deal. Great portion size. It was super delicious as well. The bento box came with vegetable tempura, rice, beef short ribs, bean spouts, sweet potatoes and a side of kimchi. Moon just opened this year replacing a Vietnamese restaurant. It is located in Chinatown. Free parking can be found on the side of the building. I highly recommend coming here. Summing up everything: Delicious Authentic Korean Restaurant!

They're service was amazing and everybody was so kind and loving. The food tasted was better than imagination. The atmosphere was perfect, I would 100% come again.

Food was out of this world!! the staff is so kind and the service is really fast!! They also have such a cute aesthetic with pretty mirrors and lights

Not really a place I recommend for AYCE. I took my friend here from Toronto to try this korean BBQ and this was a place I never tried before. The AYCE menu was quite low budget and poor quality photos my friend was even questioning like ?? This stuff did not look appetizing at all. Their washroom had no heat whatsoever and we came here during the deep freeze -30 the most uncomfortable feeling is sitting on a cold toilet seat! Our food arrived quite slow we waited around 20-30 mins for our food to just start arriving one at a time. Their green onion pancake has minimal green onion and very doughy. Their bbq meat had decent flavour but the meat didn't taste fresh. Their crispy fried chicken was juicy and tender and very crispy on the outside but had no seasoning at all. The only things we liked were: Beef udon soup - well seasoned beef and good broth Side dishes especially the potatos - one of the best crispy sweet potatos. Pork bone soup - not too spicy but just enough and really amazing flavour. Would definitely not recommend this place though in the future because we definitely did not get our $30 worth of all you can eat. There were way too many things that weren't tasty.

This was a very pleasant surprise. Despite the positive reviews we didn't except it to be this good. Every dish we ordered tasted great. The all you can eat option allowed us to try many dishes. The veggies, the beef, the pork, all were made fresh and savoury. The fried chicken was to die for.

Nice find! Great bulgogi bento boxes for lunch. Very reasonable. Servers are friendly. Very clean and safe. Their bibimbap is delicious. Overall, a fine dining experience in a very relaxed atmosphere. Lots of booths. I go there often. Their chicken for lunch is mouth watering. Never a wait around lunch hour.

Very good place. Friendly and helpful staff. Food was fresh and plentiful. I am glad I went.

For Korean all-you-can-eat, this place is solid. For $23.99 a person, everyone at our table was happy. Highlights include vegetarian japae noodles, pork ribs, spicy chicken bogogi, and beef udon soup. Normally I love the side dishes, but here it was okay. Not enough seasoning in the side dishes and some of the food. This place is great for an introduction to Korean food or if you don't like spicy hot food. All the hot food is freshly prepared for you. You can taste the difference with the BBQ meats. I'd return but order from the a la carte menu.

When you enter there is strong fragrance of meat. I reserved for a table of two. It was amazing, we ordered the pork barbecue. We originally came in for an eat-all-you-can menu but unfortunately they didn't have that as an option anymore. We recommend the sushi rice when given the option. We came back another time with a few friends. Service is perfect and the portions are just right! Definitely recommend for an amazing time and amazing quality meat!

Hands down the best all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ restaurant in Calgary and possibly in Canada. I've tried most AYCE places in Calgary as well as in Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal, and nothing beats this place! The place feels like a nice cafe, everyone is very friendly, they cook everything for you, and the food is delicious. I would recommend doing the deluxe, which includes pork belly, all sorts of beef, and fried chicken!

I really love Korean food and I have had the Ox Soup, so good, especially good for my digestion. I also enjoyed the bipbimbap very much. The dumplings were crispy and delicious. The bean thread noodles with beef were scrumptious! The kimchi was perfect!

My friends and I go here a lot bc the service, food and atmosphere reminds me of Korea! The male server is professional and remembers our order every time we dine!

The food was very good and the atmosphere was quite relaxing. They have an extensive menu with lots of different styles to choose from. The service was great, they are extremely friendly and happy to help to explain the dishes. I had their house special fried chicken dinner which had 6 different selections on the plate and was more than enough food for a meal. The prices are exceptionally reasonable, you would have to eat a lot to get your bill over $20.00 per person, unless you order beer or wine.

This place is great if you want a variety of Korean food in one meal. I had the deluxe AYCE menu for dinner this weekend (29 per person). As well as Korean bbq, I enjoyed that you could also order a variety of side dishes / small entrees as part of the AYCE menu, as I am not a big fan of copious amounts of meat. This includes bibimbap and tteokbokki, and I personally enjoyed the spicy buckwheat noodles (bibimyeon). The taste and quality of the meat and food is good (not amazing but as good as you can expect at an AYCE). I hope to check out their set menu too in the future. The service was very attentive as well. I would recommend others try this place out, and it's diverse menu sets it apart from other Korean BBQ in the city
