I went for my birthday, because I had heard of a new Korean barbecue spot actually in Jersey City. I also like Ondo a lot, and these are the same owners. But I left disappointed. For the prices they were charging, I would’ve expected better quality/execution on the dishes.
This is not a DIY barbecue. Everything is done in the kitchen.
BBQ: we ordered the Bulgogi, the Galbi and the Pork belly. I’ve never had such bad Bulgogi. It was so dry. After everyone took a bite, we all decided we didn’t want to finish, and sent it back to the kitchen. We told the waiter we didn’t like it because it was over overcooked, and it was not taken off the tab at the end. The pork belly was OK. The galbi was the best part.
Other dishes, I would recommend: the cucumber tofu salad (best of the side dishes), dolsot bibimbap.
The teeny tiny side dishes only are included with the BBQ. Otherwise if you want any kimchi, you have to pay for a separate side dish. I prefer the traditional Korean style place where the kimchi and other banchan are included in your meal, and not just one bite.
I was really hoping for a super solid Korean barbecue restaurant in Jersey City. I would maybe go back again just to give it another shot, and to try the oysters since they were sold out. But otherwise I think Ari’s Kitchen has better, not home style, food for cheaper.

Located just a few steps away from the PATH Journal Square stop, lucky for Journal Square to have such a charming and cozy restaurant! I saw many people ordering the bibimbap or soup, but I was craving protein.
We started with the cucumber and oysters, both were incredibly fresh. The grilled corn was a highlight, etuded before the main entree. The kernels were popping with flavor, and I couldn’t resist getting my hands dirty. Finally, the pork was so tender. The best way to eat it is wrapped in lettuce with a bit of kimchi. What a combo. Say less.
Overall, the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. I’ll definitely be back for the soup next time!

BRBQ is a standout addition to Journal Square, blending the heart of Korean BBQ with the comfort of American cooking, all over an open flame. The space feels warm and familiar, with the aroma of real wood smoke adding to the experience.
The 24oz Double-Cut LA Galbi is the star of the menu—perfectly marinated, grilled over live fire, and served with fresh greens, ssamjang, pickles, soup, and rice. It’s a full spread meant to be wrapped, shared, and enjoyed at a slower pace. Lighter dishes like the charred carrots with smoked tofu puree and the Pan Con Ricotta add a modern balance, while the bibimbap Hot Stone Bowl arrives sizzling with veggies, egg, and gochujang for classic comfort.
Created by the team behind DOMODOMO and ONDO, BRBQ focuses on flavor, fire, and thoughtful dishes you don’t typically see cooked this way. A great spot for anyone looking for wood-grilled depth and Korean soul in the heart of Jersey City.

We had Dolsot Spicy pork and Donkasu with Galbitang. I personally big fan of Donkasu and two thumps up! Reasonable price and delicious.
Must try Galbi tang is incredible. One best in NJ !
Restaurant vibe is cozy and luxurious.
Food Price is very good. Love it.

A buddy of mine just introduced me to this place and I was very pleased. We shared the Bulgogi Nacho Stack, which was a tasty starter. For my entree, the Namsan Donkatsu was an absolutely delicious choice. Our server Joseph was delightfully professional. I will be returning soon.

Looking for date night vibe? Looking for something different with flavors?
BRBQ is a top notch recently debuted restaurant. My partner and I had the pleasure of dining here and it completely changed our mindset on Korean Soul Food. I was the first person to try their hidden menu item called Donkatsu which is breaded pork chops topped with magic sauce that makes it tastier.
I did not have any expectations going in but going out I can say BRBQ have set the bar high.
I recommend highly this restaurant.
Much appreciation to the BRBQ crew and CapitalOne/Resy for the recommendation!

When I heard that a new addition to the DOMODOMO and ONDO had arrived, I knew I had to try it as soon as humanly possible! I ordered Signature Wood Korean BBQ which was marinated, grilled and seasoned to perfection! The vibe of BRBQ was very chill and unassuming. The interior, much like ONDO and DOMODOMO, is simplistic, clean and airy. The service was impeccably zen and friendly. Children are most definitely welcomed and appreciated. Thumbs up!

This Korean-American grill just opened in June 2025. The modern decor is amazing. They did a great job with the bar design.
I shared the signature dish “Double Cut La Galbi” and I would highly recommend it. Unique beef flavor, marinated and cooked to perfection. Don’t hesitate: order it!
There is a large choice of cocktails to choose from as well as a variety of wines. The beer selection is reduced but you will find your beloved Sapporo there, so no worries.

Such a fancy Korean BBQ spot, but surprisingly not expensive at all! The grilled meats were unbelievably delicious — like shockingly good. And the cloud toast absolutely unbeatable. I loved everything here and can’t wait to come back!

The delicious smoky smell caught my attention as I walked by and led me to discover this restaurant.
Overall, it’s a MUST visit spot in New Jersey. I loved every dish and they made me feel like I was dining at a Michelin restaurant. I’ll definitely be back soon-
