We had the Kimchi Dumplings as an appetizer. They were fried to perfection with a delightful crispy like glass skin. Three of us shared bulgogi beef, spicy bulgogi pork, and pork belly at the BBQ tables and had enough to bring home. The staff was great, we had a great experience. Look forward to coming again.

If I could leave less than one star, I would. $40 a head is criminal for this quality. I'm still hungry after spending $40, fuck.

Awesome little spot. Have lived in Iowa City for a couple years and have always wondered if this place was good, and indeed it was. We ordered the short ribs and bibimbap, both were excellent. Only issue was the portions sizes were kind of small and it was on the pricer side.

Onnuri Korean BBQ has been on my radar for months. It's one of the few Korean BBQ spots in the area. One weekday evening I finally was able to partake, via delivery!The Spicy Pork was the true star for me. The thinly sliced pork was marinated to perfection and well cooked. Honestly, I wouldn't have gone with pork if I hadn't peeped photos or read reviews. 5/5 recommend that dish!The bulgogi fell flat for me. It wasn't as flavorful as the pork and was a bit dry. Finally, the veggie dumplings were great. I think eating in-house vs delivery really makes a difference with this spot. I really want to try the shrimp scallion pancakes!Onnuri Korean BBQ lives on Gilbert-- actually where Aeoshe used to be-- in an unsuspecting building with apartments on top and an Asian market next door. Parking is a non-issue. The pricing seemed on par, but a bit steep for the portion size (IMO). It's open for dinner Tuesday through Sunday and as I mentioned, available via Chomp for delivery.Onnuri Korean BBQ is worth a try!

Food is phenomenal, however I received the wrong order. I got the bulgogi fried rice and received just the order of the meat. While delicious, it is not what I paid
I was really excited to try this place, but I was sadly disappointed - the bibimbap was SUPER oily and had a really disappointing amount of bulgogi for the price (seemed to be around 1-2oz at most).

The ambience needs some work, it seems like a modge podge of former restaurants' decor. But the food.... SO good! We brought our kids here for something different and our daughter is now obsessed with "boogoggy" and is begging to go back. The service was wonderful and we'll definitely be back.

Dined in on Friday night at about 6:30/7-8 and it was empty, there was only one other table at one point. It was nice because it was so quiet, but I'm not going to lie-- i was a little skeptical on the quality of the food since it was so empty. Service was good, friendly and quick service. Ordered the shrimp scallion pancakes, bibimbap, spicy squid, and spicy pork. Everything was delicious. It wasn't the most incredible Korean food I've had in my life, but definitely hit the spot. I haven't tried any other Korean restaurants in the area, but I heard this one was the best. Price point is pretty reasonable, will likely be back.
