Iconic Dallas Korean Barbecue Restaurant Koryo Kalbi Reopens | Eater Dallas

"After closing during the pandemic, I found Koryo Kalbi has quietly reopened last week at 2560 Royal Lane, Suite 105 under new ownership. The longtime Koreatown Korean barbecue institution — closed since at least summer 2020 — is bringing back the same menu of charcoal-grilled meats, soups, and classic Korean dishes that made it popular; the new owners told an Eater reporter, “Our menu is pretty much the same as before, the same chefs and aunties making the same recipes.” They renovated the interior and say they've raised the bar on beef quality thanks to access to their own warehouse that distributes meat. While staples like kalbi remain, the team is also planning new items such as live eel grilled over charcoal, soy‑marinated blue crabs (ganjang gejang), Prime meats that will be dry-aged on-site, and eventually top-quality Japanese beef. Koryo Kalbi is currently in a soft-opening with limited seating and is operating 10 a.m.–10 p.m. Sunday–Thursday and 10 a.m.–midnight Friday and Saturday." - Amy McCarthy
