Whether you are a seasoned pro at the ready or a first-time griller, we’ve sizzled our way around the best Korean BBQ in Adelaide, so you can experience these famous flaming delicacies from the city's finest. Let’s dig in.  

KOSSO TTP

KOSSO at Tea Tree Plaza

KOSSO invites diners to find a cosy space in its bustling venue, to enjoy rich and delicate meals that are perfect for any occasion.

Think the succulent waft of top-grade wagyu sizzling on the grills, the sound of bulgogi scallions pancakes being torn haphazardly and shared between groups, soju caps being aggressively flicked, and fried garlic chicken crunching delectably upon first bite. 

This is the KOSSO Korean BBQ Restaurant - and it's our go-to place for Korean BBQ in Adelaide right now. 

Sitchu Tip: The cold Korean noodles and spicy octopus mandu dumplings are must-try.

Gangnam Korean BBQ 

This is a great little Korean BBQ restaurant in Adelaide, where you can cook the meat yourself - and at shockingly good value too. Gangnam Korean BBQ's meats are fairly priced and juicy, and all sides a delicious accompaniment. Go for the skewers, which cook themselves (making it a lot easier to traditional KBBQ places).

If the glowing reviews aren’t enough to get you to K-pub, we don’t know what will. The Gouger Street venue is a unique combination of an Aussie pub mixed with the tastes and vibrancy of Korea. The chefs have come all the way from Seoul to create the delicious menu, so this is some seriously authentic fare, complete with Korean wines and Soju to try.

As the name suggests, Korean Charcoal BBQ is a mecca for all things flame-grilled and delicious. A longstanding contender for the best Korean BBQ in Adelaide, these guys keep it short and sweet offering hungry diners all you can eat plates of beef, pork, chicken, and the occasional seafood special. You better wear your stretchy pants for this one as you’ll likely be heading back to the meat counter to re-stock your plate more than once. Add a glass of soju for the perfect feast accompaniment.

May Q Korean Restaurant & Bar

With great music and bar ambience, this Leigh Street stunner is the perfect spot to catch up with friends or for a date night. Complete with an expansive Soju collection (think melon and coconut, and a newly introduced Soju paddle if you’d like to taste-test a few), settle in for an evening of chill vibes and epic eats. In our opinion hot pot season is every season - and these guys do it better than most.
