The Bulkogi food truck was founded in 2009 by the So family with the vision of bringing Korean culture and cuisine to the streets of the Triangle region. One of the first major food trucks to operate at the time, Bulkogi has been beloved for years for the authentic Korean barbecue taste and fusion menu. One of the anchor tenants in Boxyard RTP, Bulkogi is now available in the Research Triangle Park in a shipping container space located on the second floor. Please always check their website for the most up-to-date hours they're open.

Now, don't let the prices discourage you... there food is delicious.... slightly pricey but worth it. I had leftovers for lunch the next day. They are not shy with filling up the bowl with flavorful fresh, paired well food! My only suggestion would be to have larger cups for the lemonade/drinks... but overall, my tastebuds were definitely happy.

This was my first time visiting, and every single dish was absolutely delicious. You can really taste the care and quality in each menu item, and the signature bibimbap did not disappoint.
Above all, the owner was incredibly kind and welcoming. They greeted each customer warmly and gave thoughtful recommendations, which made the experience even more enjoyable and comfortable — even for a first-time guest like me.
The restaurant itself is cozy and very clean, making it a great spot whether you’re dining alone or with friends and family. The food, service, and atmosphere were all wonderful. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal!

Recommended for a lunch and wow! The portions are healthy and the food is wonderfully seasoned. I used the leftovers to make a whole new meal the next day! Ready to return and try something else on the menu.

Small place, great food and wonderful staff. They made a mistake on one of my orders and before I could get my food they had already fixed the mistake with no hassle.

This place is out of this world, I made my own bowl with spicy beef and the portion size is great for the price. Flavor going crazy with this place highly recommended.

I live Downtown so I visit the Bulkogi at the Can Opener often and it does not disappoint! I got the rice bowl with chicken and it’s delicious as usual and enough! Thanks to Larry who helped me during this visit. Great attitude and customer service!

I had no idea what to expect but the fries with spicy pork were delicious! The fries were $18 with the pork so it felt a little pricey at first but when I got the fries I realized the portions are HUGE. I had plenty of leftovers and will be thinking of these fries for a few days 😋

Came to the Boxyard RTP for the first time and this was the most appealing option in my opinion. They have iPad order station then you can pick up the order at the counter. Tap to pay available. I ordered the rice bowl with spicy chicken. I also tried the spicy aloe and the Jay sauce. Both were amazing . The bowl was generous and had plenty of chicken, rice and veggies in each spoonful. The sauces added a nice kick to the meal as well. The staff was amazing and the seating is plentiful inside and out. Outside seating also has the heaters so if the weather is a bit chilly, you can still stay warm. Highly recommend this establishment.

This is my new favorite place at boxyard! I ordered the bibimbap with beef, and it was incredible! I make bulgogi at home, often, and this was worth paying for! The portions were generous, and the flavors were bold. Pickled diakon was delicious, and the food came out fast. Not to mention the perfect sunny side up egg. 10/10 will be back! Located upstairs!

Went to their food truck in Bond Brothers in Cary on Saturday. They were out of spicy pork during dinner time around 8 pm which was strange. The food was really good, well cooked, flavorful, spicy, full of sauce. One bowl is enough to feed 2 people.
