Bulgogi beef, Mongolian beef, kalbi beef and beef short ribs are repeatedly praised, with one diner calling the kalbi short ribs fantastic.
Kimchi fried rice is a recurring favourite, described as scrumptious and exactly what the reviewer hoped for.
Several diners say orders arrived quickly, which suits a casual mall meal or a shorter lunch break.
Staff are often credited with explaining the menu and helping first-time diners choose between combo options.
One staff member clearly explained that only the radish kimchi was vegetarian because the other varieties contained prawn or beef powder.
A reviewer specifically noted fresh, crunchy broccoli alongside juicy grilled chicken.
The Big Koryo meal can be customised, according to one diner who appreciated being able to adjust the order.

“Being a pure vegetarian I did not have many options or rather only one option- Bibimbap. It’s a mixture of rice and sautéed/boiled veggies (also omelet which I had it removed). It comes with a sweet and spicy sauce. It was a good experience to try this dish. Enjoy eating!”

“What used to be served in separate portions, kimchi rice, japchae, and meat is now all squeezed into one box, cutting the quantity down by almost half. This left me unsatisfied, as it wasn’t nearly as filling as it used to be. The food quality is still good, but it’s frustrating to return after some time and be met with such a noticeable drop in value.”July 2025

Ask ingredients. If you avoid meat or seafood, ask about kimchi ingredients: one review says only radish kimchi was vegetarian.
Try combos. For a broad taste of the menu, consider a combo with japchae, kimchi fried rice and a meat; one diner found the combination filling.
Request changes. Ask whether your Big Koryo combo can be customised before ordering, as a diner says adjustments were available.
Check portions. Confirm the current serving arrangement if value matters: one review says rice, japchae and meat were squeezed into one box and reduced.
Prefer dine-in. For delivery, be cautious about packaging and temperature; one replacement meal arrived cold except for the soup.
Explore noodles. Japchae is worth considering if you like chewy glass noodles; one first-time diner particularly enjoyed its firm texture.
Plan the visit
Some recent diners felt portions had shrunk, with the AED 39 Big Combo described as closer to a child-sized serving than a big meal.
One delivery order arrived in packaging that spoiled the meal, and the replacement was cold apart from the soup.
Older reviews mention undercooked rice noodles, a soup that was not hot, and dry chicken on another visit.
A vegetarian diner found bibimbap was effectively the only suitable option, after removing the omelet.
One customer reported finding a hair in the meal and said the side dishes were not fresh during the replacement delay.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.
Big Combo
“For AED 39, the so-called “big combo” is far from big, it’s more like a kid’s portion”Google review · July 2025
The Bottom Line
Koryo Korean BBQ is a casual Korean restaurant in Al Mankhool where the main appeal is building a satisfying meal around its combo boxes. You can pair meats such as bulgogi beef, spicy chicken or Mongolian beef with kimchi fried rice, japchae and selected sides. Bibimbap is another frequently recommended choice, especially for a quick meal.
The strongest feedback centres on flavour and speed. Bulgogi, kalbi beef and beef short ribs receive particularly good mentions, while kimchi fried rice is described as scrumptious. Diners also report juicy grilled chicken, fresh crunchy broccoli and orders arriving quickly.
Staff are often helpful when explaining unfamiliar dishes or customising a Big Koryo order, which is useful if this is your first Korean meal. There are a few practical cautions. Recent reviews disagree about portion value: some call the combos generous, but others say the Big Combo has become much smaller, with separate items compressed into one box.
Delivery has also drawn a serious complaint about poor packaging and food arriving cold. Vegetarians should ask carefully about ingredients; one diner found only bibimbap suitable, while another was specifically told that radish kimchi was the vegetarian kimchi. For the broadest tasting experience, ask about a combo and check its current portions before paying.
