I don’t say this lightly, but this is one of the top 3 restaurants in the Triangle! It is disappointed that they no longer have dine-in seating (that should be updated on the Google profile for the place), but even with just outdoor seating or take-out, the food is AMAZING!! I got the pork belly rice bowl and it had a perfect blend of charred, seasoned pork with sweet and slightly spicy sauce. We also got the Brussels sprouts, which legitimately stole the show on their own! Loved their crispy rice coating and rich glaze. The sweet potato fries were also incredible. Oh, and then there’s the Horchata freeze!! Perfect pairing for the slight heat of most dishes. Will be back many, many times!

Cute outdoor venue with so many menu options. Everything looked so good! I had the cabbage salad and an IPA. Also they have amazing Banh Mi sandwiches. Overall, good vibes, good beer and food, and attentive service. Highly recommend.

This is one of our favorite spots. The orders are always ready within 20 minutes for curbside. Everything we have tried is amazing! The kid's meals are great too 👍

Had the Salmon Bowl today for lunch. It was amazing. The salmon was perfectly cooked. Placed the order online and was able to drive up and pick it right up. Also, I had asked for no sesame seeds and the staff came out to explain there was some sesame in the sauted spinach. What great customer service to take time to explain.

There's only outdoor seating for this very eclectic menu. The wait staff is fabulous. If you go for brunch, please know that don't have coffee. You can't go wrong with anything you order from this restaurant.

Went here for the first time yesterday with some friends for lunch and it was incredibly delicious. The menu is endless. SO MANY OPTIONS. I went with the Korean Beef Short Ribs Banh Mi and it was huge and incredibly filling. The beef was super tender and there was some spice to the sauce. My kids enjoyed their rice bowl and french fries. We had a group of 8 so unfortunately we had to sit in the sun since all of their tables are for 2 or 4 that are under an umbrella. Besides baking in the sun it was a delicious meal and we'll be back.

5 stars all around! They have super tasty food from basically three different restaurants, the beer selection is decent, and the staff was extremely friendly and fast. I'll definitely be coming back!

This little stop has the greatest food! They have an incredible variety of options from bowls, to sandwiches, to tacos. If you are a vegetarian/vegan, there are plenty of substitutes and options on the menu so you won’t ever leave hungry. My pup and I stop by at least once a week to get takeout, and I am always impressed with the quality of service, the kind employees and of course the incredible food! *Pro-tip- Get The brussels sprouts when they’re in season, they’re so tasty!

This is one of the best restaurants in the area, I've had multiple items across all the menus and have yet to find anything I don't absolutely love. The beer selection is aces and oh my god that pistachio/girl scout cookie milkshake thing (100!!) I wish I could pick this place up and take it with me whenever I move next year.

I’ve been a long time lover of KoKyu. I fondly remember seeking out their food truck years ago in order to enjoy their amazing sweet potato fries! I love their location, their outstanding menu, and the great environment.
