Kogi Gogi BBQ

Time of review 03/10/2024. The prices are based on time of review ~ Hands down my favorite. We go here so much, the owner recognizes me ~ Meat: 5 out of 5 ⭐️ $42 a person You can either order the regular or premium menu. We usually get regular, but have tried the premium. Both are really good. Meat is good and they give you a lot. Sides: 10 out of 5 ⭐️ The sides are why I keep coming back. The rice cakes are phenomenal. The corn cheese is superb. Soups are delicious. I’ve tried MANY Korean bbq ayce, Kogi will always be #1 when it comes to the sides. Staff: 5 out of 5 ⭐️ Great staff, always changing the grill even before you can ask. Attentive and gets your orders fast. This is a safe pick whenever picking Korean ayce. They get busy during the weekends. They have a special Monday-Thursday, I believe it’s $32 a person. Overall I spent $91 + $10 = $101 for 2 people

Me and my wife stoped here after visiting the Japanese tea garden! We got quickly welcomed and seat, we got 5 dish to star and were delicious, after a quick change of grill from the staff, we went w second round of dishes, the corn side dish was super tasty, but what stand out to us was the fried calamari, they were stunning and tasteful ( I’m still dreaming about that calamari ) , little gem in the sunset district! We definitely enjoyed ourselves in this place and we will be back!!

Came here for a friend's birthday dinner with a party of 15. We had a reservation at 6:30PM and we didn't get seated until around 6:50PM. The tables can't be combined so there were 2 separate tables for all of us. Layout could be a problem if you prefer to all sit together in a larger group. The food is great. They are tentative and will constantly change the burnt griddle plate. They constantly take our order so we can keep the flow going. The quality of the meat is great and flavorful. We enjoyed the overall experience. The place is a little small and I would come here with a smaller group of friends.

The premium for $60+ isn’t worth it imo but there are goods The goods: Service is so good. Our waiter was fast and attentive. Enjoyed the Kpop songs along with the mv playing Ac is strong and cooling Lots of meat variety and sides. The corn cheese is unique and yummy. The sweet and spicy rice cake has a chewy and nice slight crunch from deep fry but there’s a bit too much sauce that’s overwhelming You can ask for half orders by asking your waiter directly The bads: Although it had A5 wagyu and filet mignon, 1 person can get a maximum of only 2 small A5 wagyu pieces and 1 small filet mignon piece. It wasn’t very obvious since the tablet said 2 per person with a maximum of 4 orders. The filet mignon wasn’t worth it but the wagyu was good The truffle beef had no smell or taste of truffle and the meat tasted average quality. Would not recommend tteokbboki. The sauce taste similar to watery ketchup with just a smidge of gochuchang. The rice cake also wasn’t chewy After ordering, you can’t add or look at any food items for 5 mins and you’re limited to 4 meat and 4 sides at a time. It would’ve been a bit easier if you can at least look and add but not submit the order

10/10, 5 stars, so amazing. We went on a Sunday evening around 5:30-6pm and it was quite busy with a few parties ahead of us, but it was well worth the wait. We got spicy beef bulgogi, marinated galbi, garlic chicken, and ribeye. I would definitely recommend choosing marinated meats as the bulgogi and galbi were our favorites, but I also really enjoyed the other two using the provided dipping sauces. All the sides were really tasty as well and we also got the corn cheese because duh and it was delicious. We waited for a bit when we arrived due to them being so busy, but I took that as a sign the food would be really good and I was right. Once we were seated, we received prompt service the entire meal getting drink refills and more entree options. All of the wait staff was extremely kind and continuously checked on us the whole time to see if we needed anything else. Very, very good 👌🏼
