Last week, I went here for the fourth time after having great food here before and I was pleased as ever with my meals here. The bibimbap was a highlight as well as the seafood fried rice, which was delicious. I'm so glad that Oxford has a proper Korean restaurant serving delicious Korean foods.
I recently visited Yori Oxford for Korean Barbecue with a friend on Sunday, and I can confidently say it’s the best Korean food in Oxford! The menu is extensive and offers a fantastic variety of authentic dishes to choose from. We both tried a few different items, and everything was delicious! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the manager, Mild, was incredibly attentive and so lovely throughout our meal. It really added to the overall experience. The prices are reasonable, and I truly felt that every penny was worth it considering the quality of the food and service. I can’t wait to return for another meal and explore more of their menu. Highly recommend Yori Oxford for anyone craving delicious Korean cuisine!
Absolutely excellent Korean food and they have two serving areas. One for regular food and the second with the barbecue tables and a big plus it's low temperature barbecue so you don't have clouds and clouds of smoke enveloping yourself....... They will try and convince you to use your mobile phone to scan the menu and order on your phone, but if you ask there are old fashioned menus with lots and lots of pictures which is an awful lot easier to deal with.....
I recently visited YORI Korean BBQ in Oxford and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The restaurant has a modern and clean vibe, and the staff were welcoming and very friendly. We were seated in the BBQ section where we could grill our own meat at the table, which was fun and made the meal more interactive and the food was phenomenal. Highly recommended.
Amazing food – everything was delicious! We even came back the next day for takeaway since there’s no Yori in Cardiff(sadly). Big thanks to the friendly Korean male staff who served us both times – super approachable and helpful. Will definitely return!
UNREAL. The chicken bokkeum was 11/10, might be the most tender chicken I've ever had - literally fell apart on the chopsticks. The servings are very generous, way bigger than we expected. The kimchi jeon was great. Everything is fresh and you get a tray with kimchi, jalapenos and what I assumed was seaweed with the meal. The Korean plum juice and grape juice are both really nice too. Service is brilliant. We left very happy after our first try of Korean BBQ and will be back. Thank you :)
This is an authentic Korean restaurant where you can expect to find genuine Korean cuisine like 갈비탕, 순두부찌개, and 닭강정. Thanks to the brilliant manager, Ms. 서윤 (YUNI), my family and I had a wonderful and unforgettable dining experience during the final phase of our Oxford trip. I personally hope that YORI will open another branch in northern England, especially in Leeds, which is close to my home, so that I can visit frequently with my son, who has fallen in love with your fantastic food. This is the best 한식당 in the UK.
The food here is so tasty, the service is great and we just had the best time. Bonuses also for accessible entrance, tables and toilet.
