Jongro Menu Prices Canada 2026
Looking for Jongro menu prices in Canada? Here is the short version: buffet-only costs $25 to $27 per adult, the AYCE lunch (Korean BBQ plus buffet and salad bar) is $29 to $32 with juice, coffee or tea included, and the all-day AYCE runs $44 to $47. Weekday rates are lower; weekends cost a few dollars more. This Jongro menu prices Canada 2026 guide covers the full picture: the three pricing tiers, what is actually on the buffet and the grill, and practical details like the seating limit. One honest note up front: Jongro opened in April 2026 and has no official website, so I cross-checked every figure below against three independent review sources. If you want another Toronto Korean BBQ benchmark, our Korean Grill House menu prices guide is the comparison I would use.
Jongro Menu Prices: The Three AYCE Tiers
Jongro (종로) does Korean BBQ differently from the classic AYCE spots. Most places give you the grill and a small side-dish bar. Jongro pairs the grill with a full hot and cold buffet plus a salad bar, all under one roof. That combo is genuinely new for this city. I have not eaten there yet, but the review trail is consistent enough that the prices below are solid.
Here is how the pricing breaks down. Three tiers, weekday versus weekend. These are adult prices. Jongro has not published kids or seniors pricing anywhere I could find, so families should budget on the adult numbers or call ahead.
| Pricing Tier | Mon – Thu (adult) | Fri – Sun (adult) |
|---|---|---|
| Buffet only | Hot and cold buffet, no BBQ grill | $25 / $27 |
| AYCE lunch | BBQ + buffet + salad bar; juice, coffee or tea included | $29 / $32 |
| AYCE all day | BBQ + buffet + salad bar | $44 / $47 |

What Is On The Jongro Buffet And The Grill?
The buffet is the reason to pick Jongro over a plain AYCE grill. Reviewers list chili shrimp, fried chicken wings, tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), fried rice, sliced jokbal, tempura, French fries and udon on the hot side, plus a salad bar. Then the grill: brisket, top blade, chicken kalbi thigh, beef finger, pork belly and soy-marinated options. Thin cuts cook fastest, so regulars go for those first. Honestly? That is a lot of food for $29 at lunch.
Dessert closes the loop: sweet fruits, vanilla soft serve and breads or pastries. Service gets a thumbs up in the reviews I read. Grill plates get changed regularly, and the dining room is described as spacious. For a restaurant that opened in April 2026, that is a good sign.

The Jongro hot buffet: tteokbokki, fried chicken, chili shrimp and more, alongside the salad bar.
What Should You Order At Jongro?
If I were walking in for the first time? Weekday AYCE lunch, no question. $29 gets you the grill AND the buffet AND the salad bar, with juice, coffee or tea in the price. That is the best value on the board. The buffet-only at $25 only wins if you genuinely do not want to grill, and at that point you are paying $25 to skip the fun part. My call: go for the full $29 experience.
At the grill, start with brisket and pork belly. They cook fast and they are the cuts Korean BBQ is built on. Load up on tteokbokki and chili shrimp from the buffet while the first round grills. Is the all-day AYCE at $44 to $47 worth it? Only if you are making an afternoon of it. For most people, lunch is the move.
Jongro Story: Toronto’s Newest Korean BBQ Buffet
Jongro (종로) opened in April 2026 at 754 Yonge Street, right at Yonge and Bloor in downtown Toronto. The pitch: the first restaurant in the city to put all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ and a full hot and cold buffet under one roof. One visit, two formats. It is a young restaurant, so the review trail is short, but what is out there is consistent. A TO foodie covered the opening in April 2026, Gastro World did an in-person visit that June and scored it 7 out of 10, and northyorkguide.com listed the same price bands in October. All three agree on the numbers.
If you are mapping the Toronto Korean BBQ scene, our Jang Mo Jib menu prices guide covers another AYCE option worth comparing. Jongro is the newcomer, and being the newest AYCE in downtown Toronto is both its selling point and its risk. New spots can move prices fast as they find their footing.
Tips: Getting The Best Value At Jongro
Go on a weekday. Every tier is $2 to $3 cheaper Monday to Thursday. The all-day AYCE is $44 weekday versus $47 on weekends.
Lunch is the sweet spot. $29 to $32 for BBQ plus buffet plus salad bar, drinks included. Hard to beat anywhere in the city.
Watch the clock. The seating limit is 1 hour 45 minutes. Reviewers say it is relaxed on quiet weekdays, but do not stroll in at peak dinner expecting to camp.
Confirm prices at the door. Jongro has no official website and the place is months old. The figures here are cross-checked, but a new restaurant can move prices.
Skip the buffet-only unless you mean it. $25 to $27 with no grill is a worse deal than $29 with the grill. Go all in.
