Really enjoyed lunch time. At this time lunch is M-Th until 3:30 PM. It was quite busy when we arrived. But seated in a timely manner. Server was very polite but it was obvious they were understaffed by a lot. 1 server and whole restaurant was full. Regardless, server did a great job keeping up. Food: Side dishes: the kimchi, cucumber kimchi, spicy fish cake were great. The salad was okay. The japchae noodles were mediocre. And the pickled daikon didn't taste like they used much vinegar. Dipping sauces were all great. Sesame oil, samjang blend, a sweet and spicy sauce. Meat: enjoyed the brisket, beef belly, pork belly, beef finger meat, Hawaiian pork belly. The Galbi marinade would have been better with the finger meat marinade. Overall had a great meal and would come again. Hopefully will be better staffed next time! read more

Overall, had a great dinner at Woo Mee Ok! We were seated quickly with all the accoutrements already at the table! And we're immediately brought waters from our waiter! Our waiter was so attentive throughout the entire time, checking on us and asking if we needed more meat items for cooking and they also changed our grill as needed. The food was seasoned very well and we absolutely loved the kimchi soup and the beef bulgogi! I think for this price this place is five stars. Just wish maybe they would update the inside a little bit. read more

Service was great for an Asian restaurant! Our waiter got our requests out fast and had us changing out our grill frequently. The restaurant is in an old building in a strip mall so feels a little grungy but floors (maybe newly done?) were slippery. Food itself was decent. We paid $3 extra per person for the shrimp and beef short ribs. Kids under 4 eat free and kids under 10 are half off. Because it's an all you can eat, we definitely ate until we were satisfied. Unfortunately after an AYCE KBBQ, your stomach suffers the next day so buyer beware read more

My brother and sister brought me here, and I'm glad they did. I've been to their sister location in Richardson. This one is the original, and it has a completely different vibe. When you walk in, you're greeted, and the atmosphere is great. It's a small, cozy spot, which I really like. They do get pretty busy on weekends, especially during dinner time, so it's a good idea to call and double-check. They also accept reservations. The food was excellent; everything came out perfectly and tasted delicious. My favorite was the bulgogi--it was nice and tender. I highly recommend this location if you're craving some good Korean BBQ. read more

Very hole in the wall. The strip mall area it's located it at is very dated and the restaurant itself doesn't boast any fanciness but the food is great. We enjoyed the bulgogi, brisket and pork belly. Got full quick right around 7pm. The staff was attentive, great experience read more

Amazing!!! Food, staff, prices. All amazing. Loved the "at home" feel. Staff were attentive and helpful throughout our first experience. Left very full and happy. read more

A well known restaurant in the community. Reserve early to cut back on the wait. You're seated quickly to enjoy a great meal. We asked for recommendations since it was our first time. With our white rice, salad and three sauces readily served, it was easy to order the meat (beef/chicken) and cook it. Staff is very attentive changing the center skillet varios times. It's not too noisy yet lively. We'll be back! read more

Very nice homey atmosphere, always a good place to take friends. Affordable for the amount of food that it is and the sides are absolutely delicious and kept full. The service is great and consistent and leaves nothing more to be desired. read more

This is a great hidden gem. I had lunch here on a Sunday afternoon and it was not as busy as I thought it would be. The service was very friendly and attentive. The sides are delicious I enjoyed the glass noodles and kimchi. The bulgogi was very tender but my favorite cut was the beef belly with the dark orange sauce they offer. This is a great example of do not judge a book by its cover because the inside is very cute/aesthetic. Overall this is a great AYCE kbbq spot, especially for $29. Parking: plenty of parking in front of the establishment. read more

Woo Mee Ok Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

See all

20% off check in on Yelp is no longer valid. 3/5 stars for overall, 4/5 stars for taste. $26 for Basic AYCE, $29 for Full AYCE which includes Basic AYCE AND LA Galbi, Beef Finger Meat, Shrimp, Spicy Shrimp, and Lemon Pepper Shrimp. We did the Full AYCE, which in my opinion was still missing a lot of other protein and side options offered at other KBBQ spots (I'm from California, so for this price and the limited options I was not impressed). The banchan (side dishes) included at the table are lettuce with a basic vinagrette, daikon radish thinly sliced, cucumber kimchi, kimchi, fish cake in a spicy sauce and japchae. All standard, nothing special. They don't offer any other hot sides such as potstickers, fries or even rice paper. With that being said, the proteins we ordered were of high quality and consistent which I appreciated. The beef belly was very good, dip it in the sesame oil and salt! Spicy pork belly was very delicious on its own as well as the hawaiian pork belly. LA galbi and beef finger meat was also delicious, you can't get kbbq without getting LA galbi so the Full AYCE option is the only way you should go to eat here. Half of my friends said the spicy shrimp was really good and the other half said it was too salty. Overall, the service was good and the meat was good quality, they also split the check for you if you ask! But for the price and limited proteins and sides I'd try a different spot before coming back here. read more

Phenomenal! Came just before the dinner rush on a Saturday and was seated right away. I've been to a few joints in Los Angeles...the so called "Korean BBQ capital" ....but this spot absolutely was the best I've had. I dont give 5-stars much. But Woo Me is a 5-star gem if there is one. read more

My go to KBBQ AYCE in Dallas - the best combination of quality and value that still hasn't been beat year after year. Sure there are higher quality a la carte places, but you paying $$$. There's a time and place for both imo, and Woo Mee Ok is it for AYCE value. Personally I go for unmarinated meats and can eat beef belly and brisket alllllllllll day. But if I'm feeling flush with cash to pay that extra $3 (which isn't that much more) I'm always down for their extra menu. Beef finger is tender and the shrimp are low key the MVP surprise. Lemon pepper is great. Shrimp quality is surprisingly good for KBBQ, speaking as someone that rarely orders seafood at KBBQ since it's usually bad. PLUS I love this place because they can give you large orders of the banchan. They are real homies for sure, great service knowing that I want that large fish cake and radish side dishes. Most places don't even have fish cake anymore but they dish it out in mountains over here. Servers are always really nice and helpful. Last time I went I did the rookie move of cooking marinated meat before my unmarinated and the server saw the marinade start to burn on and offered to change the grill even though it wasn't that bad yet. Going the extra mile here. Woo Mee Ok is a treasure that deserves all the support and business. Side note, I would not recommend the Plano location unfortunately as it doesn't hold to the same value and quality. read more

Everything was fantastic. The beef brisket and beef bulgogi were absolutely delicious and definitely the highlights of the meal. We came with a party of six and had a great time together. Everyone left full and happy. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food at a great price. read more

I've had so much KBBQ in my lifetime and this place is definitely up there. The price for AYCE is really good and the meat is even better, my favorite was the finger beef. Service was great too - they're very attentive. Maybe the only con is you need a reservation but it's not that big of the deal. Very cozy inside too. read more

Woo Mee Ok Korean BBQ - Brisket - Korean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

THANK YOU TO JOEY for a great 1st experience at Woo Mee Ok! This is my friends' go to Kbbq spot, and so I was excited to try. They did not disappoint! We were seated in booths, and it's truly a homey vibe. Joey was our server, and he constantly kept refilling our sides, sauces, and drinks! We opted for the $26 option, and it was enough! We got brisket, beef belly, pork belly, squid, and hawaiian belly for our meats. All great! We also got steamed egg and seafood tofu soup. I really liked the Japchae here--it's not too oily or too sweet like most places. The seafood tofu soup was also good, not too spicy and balanced. Love this place! The service is amazing, and they do not skimp on sides and portions. Great price too! Highly recommend! read more

Woo Mee Ok Korean BBQ - Brisket - Korean Near Me - Dallas, Texas

The food was great! The service was amazing! The ambiance leaves a little to be desired, but the food was really good.

Hands down one of the best Korean BBQ spots I've been to -- and I grew up in LA. Having spent most of my life between Los Angeles and San Diego, I've had my fair share of Korean BBQ, and I have to agree with many others: Woo Mee Ok ranks above the vast majority of KBBQ joints back in California. The beef brisket and beef belly were both excellent -- high quality cuts, not overly fatty or too lean, just right. Their marinades are spot on too -- rich and flavorful without being overpowering or too sweet. The spicy squid was tender and well-seasoned. The seafood tofu soup was also a highlight -- clean broth, shrimp and clams perfectly cooked, no rubbery texture or fishy aftertaste. Jasmine rice was fluffy and fragrant. Banchan came out fresh and fast, and refills were generous. Service? Excellent. Our waitress was on top of everything -- she noticed when our meat was almost done and checked in to see if we wanted to place our next order, and when she saw I was getting tired from manning the grill, she stepped in to help so I could just sit back and enjoy the food. That kind of attentiveness makes a huge difference. If you're in the area and want legit, high-quality Korean BBQ with great service, Woo Mee Ok is absolutely worth your time. read more

Was craving some Korean bbq and this one was closest to us while visiting Texas. The place doesn't look like much but the wait time was short and the service was excellent. Our waitress was super adorable and helped us with our orders and making sure our bowls of sides were always replenished as well as meat order. The food was delicious. The price was only $25 for all you can eat. An added bonus, they offer military discount too. Would recommend this place . Can't wait to come visit again. read more

I came here for my birthday and it was my first time ever trying Korean BBQ. We had no idea what we were doing and the servers were so kind and helped us cook our meals properly throughout our time there which was nice. The spot is chill and easygoing and I really enjoyed myself. Everything was reasonably priced as well. Great first experience! read more

Excellent quality food and lovely service. I'd love to see a larger selection of vegetables, kimchi and nonalcoholic beverages, but we had a great meal and plan to return. read more

This is our first time at Woo Mee OK Korean BBQ. We went around 7 on Sunday. It's connected to some other stores. Parking was actually really tight which kinda made me want to park kinda far away from others because it was a little tight . We were greeted instantly by the person at the front counter which was real cool. It was a packed house, but no line. They went to go set up our table which took like a solid minute. When we sat down, we had our side dishes, utensils, and grill set up. Aesthetics were nice. Our server was real cool. He explained every single side dish, and how the menu worked. That was real cool of him. He mainly refilled our drinks, our (3 at a time) meats, and side dishes. Another server helped changed our grill. He also said we could do a half order of meats because the full portion is actually a lot. Woo Mee doesn't have a huge selection of meats to choose from, but the best in the menu is definitely the bulgogi, LA Galbi, and beef fingers. The pork belly was alright. We usually never get the lemon pepper shrimp, but it was pretty good. The place has a real nice Asian aesthetic to it. The gas lines to the burner should have a form of cable management. The line was kind of sticky out from the table, so I felt like someone quit smack it, and then there would a complete disaster. Customer service 5/5. Food 4/5 read more

Compared to all of the AYCE experiences I have had with korean BBQ, this one felt the best bang for my buck. For (at this moment) 30 dollars, all you can eat bbq, premium edition. You are silly to get standard since its only a 4 dollar difference. The bonchon is tasty, the meats come out at a reasonable pace, and our server even told us dont worry if we over order! The galbi and pork belly are of course fantastic, but I was surprised on how good the shrimp was! Interior wise, it feels like you are in somebodys home. I personally dont mind this, but it definitely lacks any romance that maybe the other places could have (specifically Gyu Kaku or Manpuku). For the cost and what I got, this is an easy recommendation. Dont expect it to be the greatest experience of your life, but you will be easily satisfied. read more

Love stopping by this place on our way home from the lake. Such a nice experience and have never gone wrong here. Food is great, service is perfect. Marks off only for unisex bathroom and slippery floors. LOVED the beef fingers and shrimp. Bulgogi was spot on. Generous ban chan included my fave radish wraps and fish cake. Everything was very good, we'll be back! read more

This is probably my top places to get KBBQ, especially if just want to stuff meat to your face for cheap. Dallas has so many options for KBBQ. Some of those options might give you better ambiance or better selections. This place won't give you either. What it will give you instead is consistency and more bang for your buck. As others reviewers have mentioned, this place might seem a bit rough. It's not fancy (and kinda holy in the wall-y), but it's serviceable. It's also weirdly located I feel. To me, that's part of the charm. But don't let the appearance fool you. Every time I came here (even on weekdays), it's always packed, so I suggest making a reservation beforehand. Service is not terrible. Unfortunately, this is the one part that's slightly imperfect. I came here multiple times, and I'd say service is good if not terrific about 80% of the time. The other 20% is still acceptable, but can get annoying if you're just hungry meats. Lastly, let's get into the food. You really only have two options: regular or premium. The regular will give you brisket, pork belly etc. The premium will give you the option to order rib meat, galbi, and some seafood if I remember correctly. Either option is really cheap. Regular is $26-27, while premium is $29-30 (all before tax and tips). I do love that they give us the options because some days I just want brisket and pork belly. The banchan is not bad. It's nothing to write home about, but it's there to help you stuff more meat. In short, come here if you want AYCE KBBQ on the cheap and if you don't mind limited meat selection. read more

Really grateful this restaurant was open on Thanksgiving day! Was coming from a long drive down from San Antonio, TX and our family was excited to take us here. Upon arrival the staff were super kind and friendly and quick to have us seated. Even though it was the end of the night and close to closing, they were really attentive to us, our orders and taking our requests for side dishes and even changing out the grill. The restaurant itself is really clean and has nice lighting, great for socializing and enjoying a meal. I enjoyed the music they had on as well. I'd definitely come here again with friends or family! read more

We didn't make a reservation but got a table for 9 pretty quickly for a weekend lunch. The food was really good. We paid the additional $3 to get shrimp and few other premium items and I'd recommend that. Though the shrimp was a little salty. The place could use some ventilation though. Overall I would recommend it! read more

This place overall is a nice and friendly KBBQ place. Staff is very attentive and the restaurant is very clean. In terms of quality of food, there are def better options in the metroplex for KBBQ. The meat options are typical of what you can find anywhere. My favorite was the beef finger meat, but nothing really crazy good. The prices are more affordable compared to other KBBQ competitors, but I would only come back if a friend really wanted to go. read more

Reasonable pricing. Customer service was subpar, super attentive and kind. It was our first time but not our first at KBBQ. The waiter took time to explain everything from banchan to the soup to meat. It's located next to boiling crab. I think their meat could use more marinade but still good read more

This AYCE location looks a bit rougher around the edges compared to some bigger establishments in the area, but the meats are comparable and the side dishes are abundant. Automatic bonus points for having the lettuce leaves and thin pickled radish slices to wrap the meat with - feels a bit healthier and really cuts through the heaviness/richness of the meat! I wish the ventilation systems were better, as we were primarily relying on a nearby fan to dissipate the smoke and fumes. read more

Woo Me Ok is a small, homey kbbq restaurant located in Dallas TX. the menu is small, with 2 main sections. the first half of the menu for meats is $25, and there is an extra $3 charge for the second half of the menu - which has things like galbi and shrimp. when we went we decided to stick with the $25 menu. the staff is nice and super friendly. there's no limit to how much meat you can order, but they don't do grill changes unless you ask. the meat is pretty standard, but is good for a chill friends hangout. the sauces are yummy as well. my favorite thing they had was the japchae, which was incredibly seasoned. also they include a plate of veggies with the $25 buy-in. however, the veggies were lackluster & just felt like scraps. this place is good, because its cheap & the people are welcoming. also they tend to get busy during the holiday season - so make sure to make a reservation. read more
