Since the beginning everyone was really sweet. The background music, the posters and the place by itself definitely gives those Korean vibes. Our server (actually … everyone) was really patient and attentive. Every single plates we order had an amazing taste. The fried chicken, the dumplings, the Bibimbap and the meat were all delicious. Our daughter, who loves Korean food, said it was one of the best K-BBQ she ever tried. The cleaning in all the place, the change of BBQ grill and restrooms makes this place pristine. If we ever come back to Denver, we will definitely come here again.

Kkoki Korean BBQ has quickly become one of my favorite KBBQ spots in Denver. The location near Union Station makes it easy to meet up with friends, and the overall experience is exactly what Korean BBQ should be: fun, social, and centered around great food. The menu hits all the right notes, especially the cheese corn and steamed egg, which are both standouts before you even get to the meat. The pork belly, bulgogi, and short ribs were all excellent, well seasoned, and cooked evenly. Pair that with plenty of soju and it turns into the kind of meal where you’re happy to sit and hang out for a while. If you love Korean BBQ or want a place that guarantees a good time with friends, Kkoki is absolutely worth checking out.

The food here was amazing! Kotean Bbq is always fun, because of the way you prepare it, but the taste of everything here left me so delighted. It's also located in a very pretty area. So I was able to walk around afterwards and have a really great conversation with my brother in the area, after a great start in the restaurant. Super happy, I would come back.
