The Oo Kook Korean BBQ Menu has been a Los Angeles favorite since the restaurant first opened its doors in Koreatown in the early 2000s. Founded by a passionate Korean chef who wanted to bring the authentic charcoal-grilled barbecue experience to California, Oo Kook quickly gained a loyal following for its generous portions and traditional flavors. In recent years, the restaurant expanded its dining space and modernized its service while staying true to its roots of authentic Korean grilling.
What keeps people coming back is not only the freshness of the meats and sides but also the hidden treasures on the Oo Kook Korean BBQ Menu — a few off-menu items that regulars whisper about.
While the menu has evolved with premium cuts and fusion additions, the restaurant’s original marinated short ribs (Galbi) remain the timeless favorite that started it all.
