GOGIYA Korean BBQ Restaurant (고기야)

We had a fabulous dining experience! The price was reasonable, and the food was excellent. The service was also great. We had pork katsu, assorted Korean bbq, and seafood pancake. The various side dishes were great and we loved the cheesed sweet corn! Highly recommend this place, you won’t be dissatisfied.

Loved, loved, loved the food!!! My first time here I had the kimchi soup and it was delicious! It tasted so good, I wanted to go to the kitchen and thank the chef. My favorite part was the banchan, every item was so tasty. It's very rare that I enjoy the fish cakes, but they were amazing! That is such a rare occurence for me. Hats off to the chef!

In search of finding the best flavor of my favorite food, Korean cuisine we find our next food adventure Gogiya Korean BBQ Restaurant located in Hollywood Fl and with a category of 4.5 and more than 186 reviews. The place is small but clean, the customer service was excellent and friendly and the food was amazing, delicious and exquisite. Our order was three different meats Galbi (ribs) Pork buldogi Pork belly All the sides were like a small gallery of colors with different flavors. I think the price is perfect in my opinion for the quality they offer. Highly recommended if you are visiting Hollywood FL and you love South Korean cuisine, this is the perfect place to visit.

Authentic Korean Cuisine! I have a reunion party with 2 old friends. They loved the dishes and service was very good. So many variety to select with side dishes. Our waitress that day was very friendly and professional.

Amazing authentic Korean cuisine in Broward. We ordered a Korean bbq for two which was plenty of food for two people. The meats were well seasoned and everything was delicious. We also ordered a kimchi pancake and terra beer. Check this place out if you’re nearby. The server was also very friendly and the restaurant was well kept. Will come back again.

The good part is the portions are huge and service is good! But the quality of the food is just okay. I really wanted to like it, but the two dishes we had just weren’t flavorful and simple add ons like cheese or eggs were expensive. I don’t recommend this place or at least not the tteokbokki or the dolsot bibimbap.

I’ve been to many Korean restaurants from all over the States, and this one is most likely the best one I’ve been to. First of all, it is owned and run by a Korean couple, meaning you’ll get served by the wife of the chef, and the chef will be the one preparing the dishes inside the kitchen. He even brought our our LA Galbi. What makes this place different is the way they present the food; there are not hot grills on the table, which I am all for. NO ONE has time to leave dinner smelling like Korean BBQ, and why risk burning your own food when the can do it perfectly in the kitchen. The seafood pancake came on a sizzling hot pan, and the bottom was a little toasty adding unbelievable texture. I have never had this anywhere before, but it was life changing. The LA Galbi was also so incredibly tender, and in a really great amount. For the portion and taste, I have Never had it so good before, ever. The only way to believe me is for you to give it a try and see for yourself. Trust me…you will have the best Korean BBQ of your life. 5/5 Japchae $18.99 Was done perfectly with large slices of beef; most places you’re getting beef pieces which is never desirable. 5/5 Haemul Pajeon Seafood Pancake $18.99 Came on a sizzling platter, which I have never seen before; nice semi crunchy texture on the bottom of the pancake with is a really nice addition to this common dish. 5/5 Corn Cheese $9.99 Your basic corn and cheese…very good. 5/5 Jjajang Myeon $18.99 Classic Black bean noodles…noodles were done just right, very fresh. 5/5 Soondubu Jjigae $18.99 Really flavorful stew with tofu. 5/5 Tteokbokki $15.99 Delcious rice sticks in spicy sauce...a really nice chewy texture. Yummy! 10/5 LA Galbi $35.99 Yes…a 10 out of 5! These short ribs were do tender and so flavorful…and so bountiful too! Most places give you a small portion, and yes…it’s $36.00 but so well worth it. A definite must try. I’ll be trying the other Galbi’s on the menu very soon to see the difference. My new favorite Korean BBQ place for all the reasons you read about. You don’t need to stuff yourself at an AYCE because you’ll spend less here. This amount for for 7 people and we were all full afterwards. Really a hidden gem!

Nice Korean restaurant. Good food. With large portions. A large selection of dishes. Quick and good service. Cute design. Close to the Hard Rock Casino. On Stirling Road after the bridge on the turnpike.

Excellent Korean BBQ; excellent service A friendly restaurant that is both kid friendly and serves adults well also. Food is always cooked to perfection and on one occasion I realized I had an appointment that I forgot about. Management had my ordered packed up for take away in no time. I made my appointment and my wife and I enjoyed our meal at home. The ambiance is very welcoming and parking is no problem as it located in a very convenient shopping center. My friends and family enjoy our time at Gogiya very much.

My husband and I sought this place out in search of good Korean food. This was just great. We each had a different lunch special, I the Beef Bulgogi Set. He the Chicken Gut Set. It was huge and really good. We each got 4 small banchan serving (kimchi, bean sprouts, cucumber kimchi, and tofu). I had a nice serving of delicious beef bulgogi, a bowl of rice, and even better a small (adequate) serving on soft tofu jjigae, or soup/stew. Not only was it filled with silky soft tofu, but also bits of seafood and some veges. Too back the lunch special is only on weekdays! Service was great and quick.

I've had this place on my radar for quite some time. It was quiet night, there were only a few people in the restaurant. I was very surprised by that, since the place was very clean, service was good, and most importantly the food was good. We started with a seafood pancake. It was still sizzling when it came out and stayed hot for a long time. I wish l had taken some video! I will say it was the best seafood pancake I've ever eaten. My daughter had ramen, she liked it. And my wife had bidimbap. She loves the the rice on the bottom that is stuck together and cooked well done, and it had plenty. Me, I had thinly sliced beef tongue. I normally would order spicy baby octopus or squid, but rare that I see tongue on the menu other then in a deli. The tongue was a little bit over cooked for me, but it was still really good.

The best seafood pancake I have ever had! I just had to say that first. The seafood was tender and it was served on a hot stone, so it stayed hot. Now that that is out of the way - we love Korean food and we all enjoyed our food. I never thought I would hear my daughter say "can I have more of that beef tongue?" The restaurant was clean, service was friendly and everyone enjoyed their food. My daughter had ramen and was a little disappointed that they didn't have a proper ramen spoon but said the dish was delicious. We will definitely be back.

Korean food is my favorite, and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to find the same quality in the Davie area as central Florida - but this place is amazing! Firstly, the portions are HUGE. We were eating our leftovers all week. The restaurant itself is quaint & clean, and you can tell the staff really cares about your experience. We'll definitely be back to try their combos soon!

Visited for lunch and the food was great as well as the service. We were four people and ordered different plates to share , short ribs were definitely my favorite. This is a casual place and sharing is the way to go !

We had a fabulous dining experience! The price was reasonable, and the food was excellent. The service was also great. We had pork katsu, assorted Korean bbq, and seafood pancake. The various side dishes were great and we loved the cheesed sweet corn! Highly recommend this place, you won't be dissatisfied.

Delicious Korean food! Hubby and I have been here multiple times and we absolutely love this place! Gogiya is a cute, clean and quiet little restaurant that's hidden in the corner of a plaza in Davie. Everything here is fresh and is made to order and comes out in a timely matter. Our usual go to is the seafood pancake which always comes out sizzling hot and and super crispy as well. We love love love their Galbi tang (short rib stew), its so delicious and warms you up inside. Even though you don't get to grill your own meats, their galbi and other meats are full of flavor and is very tender. The staff here are super friendly and always welcomes everybody with a big smile. They even have an awesome lunch special available during the weekday from 11:30-3pm which comes with rice and soup! Always looking forward to eating here ! :)

This is the best Korean food in Broward. I drive over half an hour every time I come here.

Found this place because I did not want to cook dinner lol. I can see why it has such great reviews. You can tell it is family owned. The food was so good, had so much flavor and definitely worth the price. We got the Korean BBQ short ribs which came with different sides like Kimchi, rice, cucumber salad, glass noodles and beans sprouts. We also got the beef stew with rice. Everything was fresh and great. It's not your typical Korean BBQ where you cook it yourself and I like that. Don't come out smelling like burn. There was K-pop playing not too loudly and some KDramas on as well. The customer service could be slightly better. We had to wave to our server to order something each time, and I felt bad because it was always when she was busy. They were very sweet nevertheless. Overall, I will return because the food was just so tasty and fresh. You can tell it was made to order.

I was in the area and had a craving for Korean . This place didn't disappoint. It is very clean and comfortable inside . The service was great . I ordered spicy pork bulgogi . It had great flavor and was a good size. The banchan was delicious as well. I would return if I was in the neighborhood

I decided to try this place out since my regular Korean restaurants were closed on Sundays. The restaurant has a real "family" owned feel and the service was really good. They had a lot of traditional Korean dishes and Korean BBQ al la cart and set meals that come for larger parties. We got the set for four and it came with a soup too, we got the tofu. We also ordered the seafood scallion pancake and Korean fried chicken. Seafood scallion pancake was MASSIVE and well filled. Super crispy with and yummy. Would recommend this for a large group. Korean friend chicken was 4/10, probably would go to a place that specializes in this for. As far as the KBBQ platter it was plenty for all four of us to eat. All cooked for us in the back kitchen and explained what each was. Love this place.

Authentic Korean Cuisine! I have a reunion party with 2 old friends. They loved the dishes and service was very good. So many variety to select with side dishes. Our waitress that day was very friendly and professional.

Drove up with ideas to go to a different establishment in the shopping center but saw Gogiya and it seemed promising so we decided to try it. My friend and I have had Korean in a few different Broward placed and some in Miami Dade county. First of all, the restaurant has ample seating and it's clean. We were told we could sit anywhere and the menus came quickly. After this our experience went downhill.... I feel the server was very inexperienced. We did not receive water. One of my nephews accidentally spilled a soda and it took three people from the restaurant to clean it up and we were not offered a replacement. We ordered the chicken wings as an appetizer and for the price and serving we received we were not happy. The wings were TINY and only 6 wings. The food came quickly and typically in Korean restaurants you are brought "Banchan" a little bit before your main meal, they brought it all together. For the Dolsot bowl in the clay pot they did not offer to mix it up for us or instruct us on how it should be eaten. Luckily it was not our first time. It was good, but a little on the bland side. The LA galbi serving was good and the meat was tasty. At the end of the meal we were not offered dessert and simply brought the bill before we asked. I'm not sure I would visit again because my go to Korean is an additional 15/20min drive and service/food is better. For a quick local weeknight meal it is worth a shot and it is not bad! But don't order the chicken wings, you'll be disappointed.

The food is very good. And the staff is very friendly. Service is a little slow. Very niche ambience and very clean place. It is missing the in table BBQ to be a great place.

MY NEW GO-TO AUTHENTIC KOREAN SPOT! This was a hidden gem I'm so happy I found. I'm not even joking the menu was huge, full of all the classic Korean dishes, place was packed with locals, hardworking staff and had tons of seating. I ordered beef ramen and corn cheese and loved both of them! The beef ramen had great flavor & ingredients, I wish I had a 2nd bowl honestly. The corn cheese was great but as a cheese lover, could have had more cheese haha. Overall, I'm going to have to stop myself from coming here daily!!!

Lovely dinner, very big menu. BBQ was very good and we didn't even have to cook it ourselves (no open grills here). Good location and service was friendly.

This place was delicious! We got the 4 people set and added some additional sides and it came about to be $50ish including tip a person I believe. The meats were so flavorful, tender, and piping hot and it was the perfect mix of fatty meat and refreshing vegetables. We also loved the kimchi jjigae, tteokbokki, and bibimbap. Personally the bibimbap was nothing special to me, but everything else came out amazingly. At first we were apprehensive about the meat portions, but we all left extremely satisfied. For the meat quality and speedy service I'd definitely return! The lunch specials looked like great deals to try if you're in the area.

I really wanted to try Korean BBQ and did a quick Yelp search to try and find one. This place had the best reviews and the food looked delicious. Due to the crazy weather here as of late, I ordered my food as take-out so that I could make it back home before the rain started. I ordered the bulgogi beef because it was something that I'd been wanting to try. So I got the Bulgogi Set because I wanted all of the extras. With the set you got the beef, rice, side dishes (sides of the day) and choice of jjigae. The Bulgogi beef itself was a little too sweet for my taste buds but still good. I opted for the kimchi jjigae and honey I could eat that by itself. It was so delicious. I loved that it had tofu in it. I don't know exactly what the sides were but all of it was delicious especially what I predict is fried tofu stripes. I also ordered fried pork dumplings. They could have been fried a little harder but what still delicious. I will definitely be back. I want to try some of the other dishes.

Stopped by this place in search of good Korean bbq in the area. This place is not a place where you cook your own and is not all you can eat. The food here is A La carte, but they do offer some combos with the different kind of meats. We did one of the meat combos that came with Bulgogi, brisket, chicken and we substituted short ribs for the 4th kind of meat. The first 3 meats were just okay. Before the short ribs came out, I thought to myself this is disappointing for the price. However the short ribs more than made up for everything else. There were full of flavor and super tender. We would come back and just have the short ribs.

A very nice experience. We will visit again! It was our first time trying Korean food and we are not disappointed. Waiters was super nice. The place is small but cozy.

First time here and impressed with their service. The owner is really nice, helpful, and friendly. He really take care customers. I came here with my family and my two babies, they immediately gave us a good spot where I can park the stroller near the table. We tried dolsot bibimbap, pork cutlet, and seafood soondubu jigae. My favorite is bibimbap because the veggies are fresh and the sauce is flavorful. It also comes with a lot of condiments such as kimchi, fish cake, pickle radish, and sautéed bean sprouts. The restaurant is clean and has a cute mini Korean tradition clothes as a decoration. will come back to try other food for sure!!

Excellent place. Not all you can eat, but high quality. We had a Kimchi pancake and dumplings to start. Kimchi pancake was huge but the leftovers made a good lunch the next day. None of the bulgogi or tiger shrimp made it home as they were too good to stop eating. Staff was very friendly and nice.

A decent spot for Korean food, but there are no grills for you to cook the meat yourself! I visited with a party of three during weekend lunch time -- the resaturant was actually pretty empty. Our servers were helpful and paid attention to our table. We ended up ordering a combo and tteokbokki. This was my friends' first time trying many dishes -- they liked the tteokbokki the most! However, the portion sizes are quite small for the price. The meat was nothing phenomenal; I actually enjoy the experience of bonding with friends while grilling too. Gogiya is worth a try, but there's also a growing number of Korean restaurants in the area.

Was so happy when they opened since there not a lot of Korean restaurants around here and can honestly say I really enjoyed the food and trying new things every time I go, they even have a lunch special

This was my first experience at a Korean BBQ place really enjoyed it. The place wasn't packed as I came during lunch time. The food tasted great we loved the bulgogi chicken. They can be a little slow with coming out with what you order but overall had a good experience and would come back again!

Discovered this place by recommendation and can't believe I wasn't informed of Gogiya sooner! Delicious food and lovely service. Very welcoming establishment. Will definitely be back again

Good Korean food. Went there for my birthday for the first time. Then many times afterwards. Staff is super friendly. Went for the lunch recently and everything was good.

Solid 5 star Korean restaurant. The restaurant itself is very nice and seems easy to accommodate groups. Being that I live in NW Dade, I typically have to drive to Lauderhill for any of my favorite Korean spots. Having a closer alternative is great! We ordered the seafood pancake, bibimbap, and beef sundubu. Everything came sizzling hot, super fresh, and so delicious. The banchan was really good too, my favorite was definitely the cucumber. For being the only waitress on shift, ours did a great job checking up on us and refilling our waters. We can't wait to go back! Gogiya will definitely see us soon.

Some of the best Galbi I've had. Beef is buttery as can be. Lunch menu is an amazing deal. Couldn't wait to take a photo.

I was craving Korean food and decided to check out Gogiya. Located in the inner corner of a shopping plaza, Gogiya offers a variety of tasty Korean dishes. We ordered the seafood pancake and tofu stew with seafood. Both dishes were delicious but I wish there was a little more seafood, or the seafood was not a small as it was. Service was a little slow with only one server for the entire restaurant, but she was doing a great job managing all of her tables. Check them out if you are looking for a Korean meal!

Amazing Korean food. The soup is not too spicy and delicious. The seafood pancake is so tasty and throughout the meal the temperature continue to stay hot and crispy with the hot plate.

I love Korean food so I was excited to try this location. I made a reservation for a Friday evening, but the restaurant was pretty empty when we came in. Our server was a little ruff around the edges and seemed to assume that we didn't know about the dishes. Once we started ordering she softened up a bit. Everything we had was absolutely delicious. The seafood pancake had seafood on every bite and came in this sizzling plate. We also ordered the bbq plate for 2 that comes with pork , chicken and beefs. All the meats were well seasoned and also came in the hot sizzling plate. Our meal came with the typical Korean side dishes, white rice and a side or cheesy corn. They boba tea was also good. Definitely recommend.

Was craving Korean food when I found this place. I ordered the Japchae, Galbi and Seafood Pancake. Japchae and Galbi were pretty good but nothing special. The seafood pancake however was amazing. Would come here again just for that.

I'm simply blown away how amazing food here is. Ordered Zzamppong and serioulsly, this was the best tasting Zzamppong I had it the U.S! Ordered Tteokbbokki to go and it didn't disappoint.

Simple and delicious! Apparently, this spot is known for it's authentic Korean cuisine. And I see now that I have never had authentic Korean food. The foot traffic told me this place was going to be good. Not too many people but a good flow. The Corn Cheese Appetizer was as advertised. Corn, Cheese, Goood. The waitress explained that this appetizer comes with side dishes. The side dishes included bean sprouts, fried egg, spicy marinated potatoes, kimchi and the last one slips my mind. Beef Bibimbap was the business. Not overly seasoned. I could really taste the flavor of the veggies and beef. It's not like the super great tasting Bibimbap I used to get at PF Chang's. And again, that wasn't authentic. I will be back to try more traditional Korean fare.

We have two Korean-born children, have been to Korea, and eat Korean food often. So, were happy to see that a Korean restaurant had opened nearby. The seafood pancake was scrumptious. It had the right amount of gooeyness, yet it was crisp and well-cooked. The jap chae was good. But the hands-down favorite at the table of four was the bulgogi. It was tender and flavorful. Though, we thought it was a little pricey at $25.99 an order. The side offerings are skimpy in the number offered and the amount in each small plate (for a table of four). But they were tasty. We asked for more, and the waitress gladly obliged.

The food was great, the ambience was comfortable and the service good. We recommend this place

Food was amazing we had the Korean Pancake, cheese corn and BBQ for 2 meat was tender and great flavors, table service was good, Boba tea and soju plum wine were great. The ambiance is dimmed and quiet great for a quiet dinner. Don't expect a huge restaurant it's just perfect the way it is.

We went on a weekday for the lunch special. For $17, I got kimchi soup, Korean side dishes, and Bulgogi. Everything tasted delicious. It is indoor dining only. Plenty of parking in the attached lot. Friendly service.

Excellent service and the food was sooo good! I was so excited to see they had hot pot bibimbap. Can't wait to go back!

Ordered the port dumpling (delish), clear noddles appetizer (pretty big and also very delicious) with just these two appt we had to cancel one entree because we were filling up. We ordered a fried rice and WOW super good a true fried rice. We ordered chicken but the steak one looked really good too.

Tips are out of control! I noticed this restaurant charges 20% automatic tip. This is ridiculous! Our group came to this restaurant on Saturday dinner. My group was party of 15. The foods were not bad and we all enjoyed getting together after golf. When I received the bill I noticed that there was 20% service charge(BTW, I do like the term "service charge". It should be tips which customers pay). I asked the waitress that why there was automatic 20% then she said they have charged always 20% and sounded like this is not a problem. To us(not just me), the service provided was not worth 20% of the total bill. Why restaurant deicide the tips? What is the definition of the tips? The customers decide the amount of the tips. This automatic and overrated tipping is outrageous and it has to be stopped.

I have been here several times, I had 5 stars experience as well as 2 stars ones. First visit was great, followed by disappointment and a second chance... at this point I decided it's too much a gamble to return and don't feel right recommending it to others. So if you scroll the reviews and see the ratings all tossed up, that's probably why. If you are lucky you'll have an authentic and tasty meal, if not, it can be among the worst Korean you've tried. One thing we order every time and which is consistently excellent is the seafood pancake. Piping hot, loaded with seafood, with a deliciously chewy texture and crispy edge, it's the best seafood pancake in my life! If you go there, don't miss this one. The tofu stew is usually pretty satisfying as well. If you go for lunch, they have a great deal which includes a BBQ entree with a tofu stew, which is more than enough to feed two. Now, the misses: Some days the banchan can be lacking in variety and flavor. I am no Korean but it feels like they forgot to make or order the kimchi, so they just chop up the cabbage and stir in some chili sauce that very morning. There was no fermentation, no marriage of flavor in that kimchi. I've also tried BBQ where the meat was unbelievably tough and dry we left most of the dish untouched.

service is trash! Until I finish my lunch ! Not any water ! And when I need bring the food ! I boxed by myself!

Based on reviews I was soooo looking forward to having some Korean food with my mom. There aren't many places around so I was excited to see one 10min away from where we were. The food arrived and it looked delicious. Unfortunately even though the flavor was good the meat was not premium as advertised. I got the seasoned short rib but almost every piece was hard, had cartilage and fat. The Bibimbap's rice was burned and had no flavor. Lastly, milk tea came with no bobba. Overall I probably wouldn't recommend this place or come back. It's pretty pricey for not an enjoyable meal.

I've gone to several Korean restaurants with my Korean friends and to be honest this one is not at the top of my list . The "Spicy chicken" which wasn't even spicy at all had a weird texture and strange flavor it had no taste maybe it needed some salt.our group of 7 did not enjoy this we all just tried it and reacted the same . We left all of it . Egg custard was ok ,I've definitely had better , it needs salt . The soup was good , the beef and pork were ok too . Service was good , the plates give the food a nice authentic touch , they couldn't give us forks because they were being washed so they gave us a plastic fork. The place was clean and organized and there's lots of parking considering the restaurant is in a plaza .

Food was very tasty, went there to celebrate my birthday and the staff were nice and accommodating with a cake brought from outside the restaurant. Definitely a place to go again.
