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!

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!

I had an amazing experience at Boon Dee Moo Ka Ta Thai B.B.Q.! I made a reservation for 9:30 PM but ended up arriving around 9:45. Despite being late, they still welcomed me in without hesitation. The staff were so sweet, kind, and accommodating — I truly felt appreciated as a customer. The price is very reasonable, especially for a buffet in today’s economy. I’ve tried other BBQ spots before, but this one is hands down my favorite. The food was fresh, delicious, and full of authentic flavors. Shoutout to the gentleman who seated me — not only was he super kind, but also very handsome! On top of that, I was able to get extra shaved ice to take home and enjoyed their mango sticky rice — absolutely the best! Highly recommend this place for anyone craving great Thai BBQ and top-notch hospitality.
