  • Best Barbeque Winner

    Since opening its doors in New York City’s Koreatown in 2015, Jongro BBQ has set the standard for authentic Korean barbecue. Known for its dedication to freshness and traditional methods, Jongro BBQ stands out by refusing to use frozen meat. Instead, the restaurant ensures superior quality by receiving daily deliveries of primal cuts, which are butchered and marinated on-site. This commitment to excellence is evident in their cooking process: meats are prepared and grilled at the table using laser thermometers and overhead smoke lamps to maintain perfect freshness. Jongro BBQ’s focus on top-tier ingredients and meticulous preparation has earned it a reputation for offering unparalleled Korean BBQ at an unbeatable price point. With its blend of tradition and innovation, Jongro BBQ offers a dining experience that truly embodies the essence of Korean culinary culture.
