The food was delicious, from the juicy meats to the hearty soup. The service was also super friendly and efficient, making sure to keep an eye on us so we didn't burn anything. The restaurant is quite cosy and very warm. The only negative is that there isn't much space on the table around the bbq, so it can be difficult to fit lots of plates and eat comfortably.

This was my first attempt at Korean BBQ. We chose the banquet which was huge and we had no chance at finishing it between the two of us. The staff were very helpful explaining everything once they realised we were complete first timers. Very good value.

Cons - It’s not a fine dining place and there are often large groups there - so this is not for a quiet luxury dinner.

Thanks Woodo!

Reasonably priced and absolutely delicious! The waitress was so lovely, helpful and attentive and overall, it was a great dining experience. One of the best Korean BBQ places in the CBD. I think they gave a really nice amount of meat (especially compared to other Korean BBQ in the city) and the meal was really filling and satisfying. 감사합니다!

Serving was really above average. They do free refills for their side dishes. The meat and the simchang sauce (i dont know how to spell them) was very tasty. We came on a wednesday night and its a bit packed. Recommend people to reserve a seat otherwise waiting time is about 15-30mins (so dont go when you're really really hungry, although you can coz it's really worth the wait). Very friendly staff and they make sure that you are really looked after. We ordered the 750g korean beef bbq set. Serving's good for the price. Will really recommend this.

we order the Beef set B and they have good value set menu which make them as one of the best Korean BBQ restaurant. and they provide some amazing dishes before the BBQ . no one like them in Melbourne and the service is good as well. but the environment is too old and the smoky everywhere due to the poor ventilator system.

Been wanting to try out this place for awhile but there always been a long wait so we always just leave. But this time we had a chance to get a table right away. Now I know what the fuss is about, the food here is not only good but the side dishes they offer is very generous. The service is good and would definitely be back here again. Food coma to the max.

We didn’t try lots of different varieties but what we had (only pork belly and some sorts of beef) was nice. The sorbet was tiny however it ended perfectly as everyone was stuffed
The service was good, but some how they didn’t manage to deliver our drink orders quite quickly.

Woodo is by far my favourite kbbq place to go to because of their beautiful cuts of meat, variety in side dishes, attentive service and value for money!
Of the many times I’ve been here, the pork sets are my go to as they’re thick cuts and really fresh. When eaten together with the sauce and vegetable wraps, it’s so juicy, flavourful and doesn’t have the really overwhelming porky taste that you get with subpar pork quality.
The Pork Set B can feed 3 easily as it comes with soup, steamed eggs, rice, vegetables and even a little crushed ice dessert. Worth it!

The service is also on point, the staff are super attentive and will cook the meat for you.

Note that you have to make a reservation or you should walk in before 6pm, otherwise the wait can be very long as they get packed really quickly.
Also, they don’t normally serve kimchi as part of the complementary side dishes unless you ask for it, I found out only after dining a few times here 😂

Woodo is my new found favourite Korean BBQ restaurant. Amazing service but highly recommend you make a booking before you arrive as it gets super packed and the wait is pretty long as it’s a BBQ restaurant. Please note they take bookings for 4 or more people.
They have a varied spread of banchan. Very generous with their portions including garlic as at other BBQ places they charge a $1 or 2 if we ask for more.
We ordered the banquet with Pork as a choice of meat, Beef Bulgogi Hotpot, Sesame and Matcha Ice - Cream.
It was a lot of food for 3 of us to finish we had to take away leftovers.
Just with pork belly I thought they where too thick and fatty.

We rocked up without reservations, it seemed like all the tables downstairs are catered for 2-4 people whereas upstairs you've got much more room to breathe. There is not much ventilation here, this is guaranteed to make you exit with smells of BBQ on yourself and clothes.

We were a party of 5 and we got a combination of beef and pork in our set intended for 4. We also added on some beef tongue and a seafood panjeon (Korean pancake) for good measure.

The banchan was varied but missing kimchi which was a shame. We also got some random sides which included a fluffy omelette, shredded scallion salad and a cold soup I've not tried before. The kimchi and pork stew we got was firey and the and mul naenhmyeon (cold noodles) was the complete opposite, a light and refreshing buckwheat noodle soup. We also got bibimbab in a stone pot to share (unusual they'd include it in the set) and the panjeon was pretty good, not gluggy but crisp with nice bouncy prawns and calamari.

The BBQ itself was fueled by gas, disappointing as I would always prefer charcoal as it gives it a nice smokiness to the meat. That being said the service was super attentive, the server didn't burn any meats and we were able to enjoy our own company with a few beers and soju (they didn't have any flavoured soju however). All the cuts of meat we were presented was good and I did get a little overexcited when they placed a plate of wagyu on our table (not intended for us but I did take a quick snap).

We were all stuffed with a few sides left over. We finished off with some sort of pineapple granita, I'm sure it was just shaved ice and pineapple juice. As we walk out I'm sniffing my clothes and bag. Urgh, a shower is in order.

Pro: awesome food! We got pork belly & beef ribs set for two people. Highly recommend the marinated beef ribs! This is Korean BBQ so you don’t have to cook, staff will do that for you. Our waiter was very attentive and kind - thank you! Panchan is basic, I was a bit sad they don’t include the corn dish in set menu anymore. We left being so full we had to say no to the dessert lol
Con: make sure you are there when they open, otherwise prepare to wait for 30-45 minutes. We were lucky 3 groups before us were not there when they were called, so it took us only 30 minutes waiting. They don’t take reservation for group of 4 pax or less :(
Conclusion? We will be back!

Walked in to try our luck and got a table in abt 20 mins on a Thursday night. Had the beef and pork set for 2, upsize to bibimbap and added the kimchi pancake. Couldn't finish all the food and had to takeaway. They gave us a on house dessert - pineapple and mango sobert, it was refreshing, exactly what you need after all those meats! All food are yummy, meats are fresh! Friendly staffs but they are all busy, so be patient. Will definitely come back again 😉

I forgot to take a photo of foods... Anyway for me, this Korean BBQ place is top 3 in Melbourne. Service is not so quick and good enough, however balance of food quality, volume and price is very well. I strongly recommend Set menu for group as affordable set. Then order additional meat and pancakes and beer!!
It is perfect set for after work dinner with coworkers!!

Who can go wrong with some cozy kbbq on a rainy night! Ordered the pork set for 2 and portions were quite big so I'd say it was more for like 3 people! Meat was fresh and cooked nicely. The silky tofu soup was flavourful, however if your spicy tolerance is low like mine, it be best to opt for less or no chilli because it can be hot hot hot! Excitement sparked when the fluffy egg dish finally came out and it didn't disappoint as the egg was soft and delectable. Shattered corn cheese wasn't on the menu but overall the ambience and dinner was enjoyable.

Decided to have dinner here on my birthday. Ordered a pork set (thin sliced) and it was reallyyyy gooddd! I like the texture of it and the pork's thickness is just right. The set came with some side dishes, soup; which I chose a kimchi soup and egg; decided to change the egg into a steam one as my friend suggested and the steamed egg was soo goodd! Employees are very nice and helpful. They always come to check and cook the meat for us. Had a pleasant dinner here :-)

My go-to K-BBQ for many years! One set is enough to feed even 4 people, as it comes with an authentic Korean soup and a steamed egg dish. After trying all of their delicious soju ades, I recommend the mandarin and strawberry flavour as opposed to the blueberry as it tends to settle at the bottom. A great spot for a fun night with friends!

One of my favourite place to go whenever I feel like Korean BBQ. Been coming here many times now.
Food is good, very generous portion, for the amount of food you are getting for the BBQ set menu, I don't mind the price they charge.

Customer service is good, staff is friendly and always cook the meat for you. One thing that not good is you must wait very long time. They don't do booking, only walk in. So if you want to avoid long waiting , properly best to come in at 5:30 pm when they open for dinner or after 8:00 pm when its get a little less busy. 😀

First time trying this place and there were two things that stood out to me. Firstly the service was exceptional. Secondly, the amount of sides was the most that I have seen. Food was also great and to top it off, we were given a jug of beer on the house. The quality of the food was outstanding. Especially the cuts of meat were of high standards. Will be back 🙂

Woodo looks very unassuming from the outside but is a two storey + well evaporated hidden gem. Between 2 people, we ordered oyster blade, thinly sliced pork belly, and silky tofu soup. The meats were so succulent that it didn't need a marinade. Portions are generous and the side dishes were very traditional, a bit too many sides for my liking. Service was a bit slow, but there were only 2 FOH staff and the restaurant was full house. Reasonably cheap if you order individual meats instead of the sets. Will be coming back here again, thanks for the complimentary pineapple shaved ice 😍🍧

An extremely busy double-floor Korean bbq restaurant. They don't take bookings so get in early. Five of us waited about 15 minutes before being escorted to our table upstairs, and pleasantly surprised to see all the Korean condiments were set up on our table already. We ordered 2 x Pork & BBQ sets and Korean Pancake. Servings were generous and fresh and so tasty! Waitresses were friendly and helpful, coming to our tables at regular intervals to cut the meat for us. The sets also came with two soup choices, we went for the Kim Chi soup and the egg soup. Everything was delicious and an enjoyable time was had by all. Only thing is the place can be very noisy so you may have to talk over each other to be heard. Apart from that, great valule for money (came to $38 for each of us), excellent quality of food, and fantastic service, make this one of the best Korean restaurants in Melbourne!

Ordered: Pork Belly Set and Beef and Pork Set.
If u want to go for pork belly. This is the place to go. The pork is thick and so juicy and of course when u put it on top of rice and some kimchi 👌 (perfection). I don't have a wowza opinion on the beef beef-cause (pun-intended) i always go to Chango (best place for beef 👅)

They also give many side dishes - not traditional side dishes definetly more modern dishes - , the vibe of the place is great and the service is moderately fast. I don't think it's too pricey because kbbq are normally expensive anyway but definetly book before you go because there WILL be a line.

By far the best Korean BBQ place I've been to in Melbourne CBD! The place was crowded with a line by about 6:30pm; that however did not impact the quality of service at all. Waiters remained patient and served us with a smile. At no point did we feel like we had to rush through our meals to make way for people waiting in line. Food was amazing too! We had a seafood hot pot and the pork set. Both dishes were delicious! Will definitely be back!

Been back a few times with friends and had the same dish!
Didn't try the actual BBQ but I did devour the bipimbap!
This is a very in-expensive dish but my gosh is it flavour packed!
Rice, various veggies, other condiments, sauces, egg, shredded meat and on a wintery night it was divine!

When we went, we ordered the set menu of the pork, and it says it feeds 2 people, but it really can feed 3 mouths! So bring friends when you do visit this place, because you won't finish all the food! Th price is very affordable, the cheapest Korean BBQ in Melbourne!

Was walking along King Street looking, and I came across this gem with my friend with a sign saying $6 lunch specials. We both like Korean cuisine, her more so than me so eh why not? Came here on Thursday looking for a cheap meal (affordable for a student). The interior looked really nice with a modern Oriental feel, darker wooden decor. We were confused as to what we were meant to do, so we just waited in line at the counter near the back and ordered our meals by snatching a menu. Surprisingly they even said we get a free drink, so we were just meant to pick a drink from the many cans and water bottles near the counter. 
We were told what our table number was upstairs, so we made our way to the table and sat down. The interior was surprisngly nice as I saw the price of the lunch, but when I saw the other meals I could tell this place wasn't cheap aside from the special lunch menu.
Food arrived about 5-10mins after we ordered and they tasted nice, not a lot of quantity of each ingredient but what can you expect from the price? I was satisfied, it was a good meal size in which I could finish. Oh, what I ordered was the Spaghetti with Beef and Veggies in Curry (yep, fusion style dish). See picture in my profile if you wish.
The service was decent and efficient, they were nice and very much Korean. 

TLDR; Lunch special was worth it, good flavour but not with abundance of ingredients, interior looked really nice and made it feel like a more expensive place as opposed to the meals we ordered, service was quick, staff were friendly and definitely Koream, meal came out in 5-10mins, would definitely come back again!

Had their Beef Set which included a Silken Tofu Soup and we upgraded the steamed rice to a Stone Pot Bibimbab. Firstly, all the different types of beef were all very flavoursome. I loved Silken Tofu Soup as it was rich in flavours and had a little kick of spiciness within it. We were served with a variety of side dishes (much more than other KBBQs) and the steamed egg was commendable as it was smooth and savoury (goes well rice!). Last but not least, the Stone Pot Bibimbab was also satisfactory.

No. Of Visits: 6 (Updated 8 Jan; first visit June 2016)
With countless fine Korean/BBQ restaurants in Melb, Woodo has found the answer of how to successfully differentiated itself.

The really impressive BBQ set comes with many side dishes - not just your everyday-kimchi! It comes with steam egg, pickled seaweed, beans, tofu stew soup and salad. It also includes a variety of veggies and a small dessert.

The price is very reasonable in CBD standard as well. $75 for 2 people (Set) will make you walk out with a full stomach.

Standard hasn't wavered a bit - you get the same quality, quantity and service every time you come. It's a characteristic of successful restaurant.

We saw impressive queue outside Woodo quite often. To avoid the wait, we usually go earlier, say before 6pm.

Our Foodie Finds

A surprising find after the original Korean BBQ place was booked out on Thursday evening. Located on King Street right next to 7/11 with ample street parking, we found ourselves a new favourite and clearly a very popular Korean BBQ restaurant. With an up and down stairs seating area, there is plenty of room for everyone however whilst we enjoyed our meal, for at least a good 15min, there was a line out the door waiting to be seated whilst the everything was being sorted out.

We ordered the beef and pork set $76.0 along with a Strawberry Soju Ade $16.0 which was dangerously delicious and could've kept downing a bottle had we not needed to drive. The marinade on the pork and beef were perfect in both sweetness and saltiness which was cooked for us by the waitress. We were offered a complimentary serving of what they call mango sorbet but is really just shaved ice with mango chunks. Was nice enough but probably worth a miss.

Service is quick which is provided by some very welcoming and approachable Korean staff who attended to all of our needs (not that we had any).

Woodo's decor and layout almost feels as if you were in the lobby of a sauna with wood covering almost everything but with just enough Korean memorabilia and decorations for it to not be overwhelming. In saying that, I think they need to work on the ventilation shafts that most Korean BBQ places have as it got pretty toasty in there.

With a spray of fabreeze at the counter whilst we paid for our meal, we decided this would be a regular. Till next time, this is Our Foodie Find!

Call to book a table on Friday night but they were full. Luckily, we've got a chance to book a table for Saturday lunch and it was amazing. I'm so glad that my friends love the place xD I've been there twice but it's their first time and they really are impressed with the food and service. The BBQ beef and pork set for 2 persons is huge for three of us. The silken tofu soup and Jap chae are delicious. The staffs are nice and friendly with their smiles. They also got us small desserts when we finished our meal. Good food good service. No wonder they are packed at lunch time xD we tried to finish earlier and let other people in :) Definitely coming back for more Korean BBQ.

Walked past this restaurant last night, and spontaneously decided to give it a try - I could say that this was in my top 3 food decisions this year.

We had the Beef & Pork set and we were definitely well fed. They gave as an abundance of side dishes which were very tasty, as well as a choice of soup (we chose the silk tofu soup - BEST DECISION EVER). Meat was fantastic; if anything, the beef was slightly overcooked for my liking - quality of food on the whole was great.

One of the main contributing factors to a 4.5 rating is the service - I never had to touch the tongs or scissors to cut the meat. The staff were always there were you needed them and were very polite. To top up the night, they gave us free dessert!

This was a great night for us.

Definitely would visit again, although wishing that it was slightly cheaper...

Highly recommend a visit. Haven't tried dinner here but I've been here twice for lunch and the lunch bentos are such incredible value. You can get well-fed at a mere cost of $7.90. The cheapest options are $7.90, followed by $11.90 and upwards. I have tried their fried fish bento and bibimbap rice bowl, and both were very good and filling. Service was always nice and friendly with warm smiles. Will definitely have to pop in for dinner sometime soon!

The USP of the place is its owner. A lovely lady who personally takes care of all her guests. She teaches they how to eat the food in an authentic way. She is like a mother figure. A must visit to experience the hospitality.

One of the best BBQ restaurants in Melbourne. Friendly services and lovely waitresses, premium quality of meat and good portions. The highlight was traditional side dishes. Seafood Hot Pot was yum with various seafood. If you looking for some cheap Korean BBQ restaurant, go to Victoria Market, they will offer you 35 dollars set however with beef thin as paper and poor services.

Had kimchi and pork bone hot pot. Pot was loaded - good for 1-2 people (small size) - obviously couldn't finish it all. It had the right amount of heat. Added a small bowl of rice with it. Soup definitely warmed me up :)

So after uni on Friday we thought we’d go get some nice Korean BBQ to satisfy our Korean BBQ cravings. We were gonna try Changgo which is famous for their 8-flavour pork belly set (although I think quite a few other Korean BBQ places have caught on to the hype now and also started offering similar 8-flavour meat sets) but since they don’t take bookings we didn’t wanna risk it so we opted for Woodo instead. I have heard good things about Woodo before so I was pretty excited to try this place. We made a last minute booking and they were able to accommodate us (7 people) on a Friday night. Note that when we arrived the place was pretty much at capacity so I strongly suggest making a booking for dinner.

My friends and I love coming here since they opened. There's always enough food for us and we're always left full. The service is a little lacking but can be overlooked. Overall we will continue to come back here

Korean BBQ gem on King St. If you want a cheap meal with all the trimmings, order a bibimbap for $16! Includes miso, sides and dessert! Absolute bargain.

was introduced to this place by friends and have been back numerous times since. Other Korean BBQ restaurants should follow what this restaurant delivers in terms of side dishes. Our table were literally filled with different and tasty side dishes to enjoy through the course of our meal. We usually get the set for two, which mind you could feed 3-4 people depending how hungry you are. Their fruit-ade are very thirst quenching and tasty!

My first Korean BBQ experience, and a great one! I came here for a work dinner and enjoyed various dishes. The food was great quality and the staff were very attentive, helpful and friendly. I would return to this restaraunt.

Food was very good and seasoned well; the simple mushroom/rocket salad was flavourful yet light and refreshing, the kim-chi soup not overly spicy and good servings of ice-cream. Commendable staff as they were quite attentive on a busy friday night; with the general assistance of the cooking of the food/meats to refilling the side-dishes, sauce and condiments. Overall, good place to catch-up!
Note: Be sure to look out for the place as it's little alley doorway can be easily missed :)

One of my favourite places for Korean BBQ. Their pork is just average but they specialise in beef so I recommend ordering their wagyu beef sets. I got the oyster blade and it was amazingly tender. There are toooons of free side dishes which is a plus but unfortunately they charge you for lettuce refills. Staff are also nice but you can easily be forgotten if they're busy.

One of the best Korean bbq!! However, u don't want to order too much, as the portion is so huge! The price is a little bit expensive, but it's definitely worth it!

This place looks mediocre on the outside but their staff, service and foods are impeccable. I tried the bibimbap and cold glass noodles. I must say it is one of the BEST bibimbaps I've had in Melbourne. It was super flavourfull and the serving was very generous. I'm not a super dooper fan of glass noodles so it tasted like all others. Overall, a great place for a group to catch up, and will definitely be back to try the korean bbq here.

Came here recently with two friends and the lover on a Friday night - we went with the beef banquet and had a pretty awesome dining experience.

As per the menu, the banquet serves at least two people. You each get an appetiser, three choices of different cuts of meat to barbecue a HUGE hot pot and a choice between green tea or black sesame ice cream (hint: you can't go wrong with either) for dessert; plus A TONNE of complimentary dishes.

The menu was a bit confusing as we thought that because there were four of us, we could order x2 sets of three meat cuts and x2 hot pots but this wasn't the case - not a big deal and honestly, if we got two hot pots, I think we would have died. We were falling apart by the time we had finished appetisers and all the meat. We swear the hot pot could have fed at least 12 people. I argue you have a second stomach for dessert though because we perked right up for our ice cream even if our second wind was short lived!

I enjoyed the kimchi pancake for an entree, the oyster blade, scotch fillet and strip loin for my beef cuts, the beef bulgogi for the hot pot and green tea ice cream. The barbecue was simple but the meat spoke for itself in quality and flavour and I particularly enjoyed the scotch fillet.

Highly recommend that you consume a banquet in a group of about 5 or more or you will struggle!

I also really highly recommend the strawberry soju - very easy to drink.

Best Korean BBQ experience!! Love how they have the table all set up with the side dishes, awaiting & welcoming your arrival (if you've booked). Amazing staff who are very attentive, constantly offering to refill your side dishes and condiments before they go empty. Food was great, plenty of banchan varieties to compliment the meats, waiters cook them perfectly for you at the table. Also kid friendly with high chairs available and a place to store our stroller. All in all we left very satisfied, especially with the friendly service & hospitality :)

We had great dining experience. Food was great and the service was excellent. Side dishes had been refilled many times and staff members always responded quickly with smile. Staff members would cook in front of the table and meat were cooked perfectly. Will definitely visit again and highly recommend.

We got the deluxe family set paying $220. The range of meats were nice, however, I felt for the price the meats could of been marinated further and more tender. The staff were excellent in assisting in cooking the food and they frequently replaced our sides without hesitation. Whilst not 5 stars, as I felt for the price it could’ve been higher quality I was happy with the experience and would come here again.

This Korean BBQ restaurant provides us with the best quality of fresh meat, customer service, and care while I having a bbq set menu. Meat was tender and juicy enough to enjoy each bite of bbq’ed pork and beef, which went well with a bottle of Soju. Staffs were very friendly, professional, and thoughtful to care for patrons. And they did the bbq for us just needing to enjoy watching meat to become cooked and carrying on our conversation. It was a pleasant dinner and memorable day due to this restaurant. Recommended!

We had the best time. It was such a lovely space and our waiter Jay was so considerate and so nice. Honestly the best customer service received ever. Jay was advising on the best food combinations and it was so tasty. We had such a great experience. Looking forward to coming back here soon!
