Daori BBQ

Ordered iberico combo B and grilled duck. So disappointing. Everything was not great except hidden flank. This place is not recommended at all. Ive never seen pork belly like this- this is 90% fat lolll

Love the food quality and service here! I had a great time enjoying a delicious meal without having to grill the food myself, which was a huge plus. The staff also kept refilling the side dishes throughout the meal, making sure we always had plenty to eat. Highly recommend!

a hidden gem that only really locals knows about, Daori BBQ place has the most insane lunch special spread, especially for this price (i paid ~$13). every time i’ve been, they’re especially busy around 12pm-1pm. they’re known for their bbq duck. the deulkkae jang kalguksu (which is dinner sized) was so insanely hearty and filling. i barely made a dent in my barley rice, but i always enjoy eating that with my banchan. i had enough leftovers to have as dinner for tonight and lunch for tomorrow! i can’t recommend this place enough honestly.

I was at this very tasty KBBQ place a while back with one of my usual groups. The inside is casual, and our waitress, Jane, was extremely friendly and helpful from refilling banchan to cooking meats and otherwise. A couple of us shared a $13 bottle of the green grape flavor of Chum Churum, a soju. In terms of banchan, there was a bunch. Everyone got a cold and refreshing cabbage soup as well as a very tasty version of Braised Tofu/Dubu-jorim/두부조림. Once we ordered, we also got a bunch of other banchan, including cabbage, radish, and cucumber Kimchi, broccoli and cauliflower Namul, Marinated Mushrooms/Beoseot Bokkeum/버섯볶음, Anchovies With Peanuts/Myeolchi Bokkeum/멸치볶음, and Potato/Gamja Salad/감자샐러드. One of the other things brought out was a pretty tasty version of Raw Soy Sauce Marinated Crab/Ganjang-Gejang/간장게장. Most of these were refillable. The first actual thing that arrived was something that I can't eat, the $22.99 Seafood Pancake/Haemul Pajeon/해물파전. I have a cephalopod allergy, or in other words, anything with tentacles, so I avoid squid and octopus, and seafood pancakes always contain one of those two. Everyone else enjoyed it, though. The pajeon I could eat was the Kimchi Jeo

TLDR: Local BBQ place in Murray Hill with CHARCOAL. Impressive banchan spread and equally great service. Plus, how many places have Iberico pork?!? I feel like with most BBQ places, you have to pick one particular meat but some places do well with multiple types. Daori is one of those places. They're most well known for their duck but everything sounded good - I needed to try one from each category. Pork, we opted for the Iberico "bimilsal" or secreto. Grilled over charcoal, it has this incredibly nice marbling and very luscious texture. Duck, we got the spicy marinated duck which kind of reminds you of jeyukbokkeum but with thin-sliced duck. Beef, got the galbi. Very nice scoring and some very tasty bites. Overall - really enjoyed this place and will definitely come back. I think I'll need to try the non-marinated duck and some other Iberico cuts on my next visit.
