Namu artfully blends Korean and Southeast Asian influences in a lush, garden-like setting, making it a standout for Korean BBQ in Durham. While it’s not a traditional grill-at-your-table spot, Namu’s bulgogi platters and Korean BBQ-inspired dishes consistently earn praise for their bold flavors and generous portions. The venue is also celebrated for its communal atmosphere and local craft beer selection, perfect for gathering with friends. Eater Carolinas and INDY Week have both highlighted Namu for its creative take on Korean classics, attentive service, and commitment to serving the Durham community.
