We enjoyed premium charcoal Korean BBQ at The Galbi BBQ, surely one of the best Korean BBQ experiences in Melbourne. We were invited along to dine at this Korean BBQ restaurant where a point of difference is the use of charcoal in the cooking to produce a smoky flavour.



Walk in to a modern restaurant with engaging staff and choose from a premium and affordable menu. The Galbi BBQ is popular with Koreans in Melbourne (as well as other Korean bbq enthusiasts like ourselves) and was packed on a Tuesday night in Glen Waverley.
Food is cooked at The Galbi BBQ on hot coals for a charcoal smoky taste and we welcomed this distinctive. Galbi is the Korean word for “rib” and this restaurant brings the best of giant ribs to diners.



Highlights included the Signature “Galbi set” featuring Giant cut soy marinated beef and pork ribs (both melt in your mouth with smoky flavor) as well as Spicy clams soft tofu stew (a highlight) and black rice.


A must order is the Soy marinated Angas Beef tartare with pear and egg yolk.


Cold Buckwheat Noodles hand made in house were a delightful signature dish.


Another highlight was the Seafood spring onion pancake (crispy and full of seafood).

We also enjoyed Corn cheese and Rice noodles with sweet and sour sauce.️


The Galbi BBQ serves excellent sauces and banchan side dishes.



Our meal was washed down with Soju and Korean beer.




Staff were top notch and helped us cook.

House made Kimchi is exceptional.
A fabulous Korean bbq experience in North Melbourne and Glen Waverley.
