About Subi Q Korean BBQ

South Yarra locals drop into this family-run Korean barbecue spot for sizzling grill cuts and bubbling bowls of soft tofu stew. The space captures an unpretentious Seoul energy—tables lined with Wagyu beef, seafood pancakes, and cold beer poured seconds after ordering. Diners take comfort in the attentive floor staff, who keep a watchful eye on your grill technique, offer pointers on cooking style, and readily replace side salads at no added cost. Fresh banchan and house kimchi round out the table alongside warm stone pots of soon tofu.

  • Attentive Grill Assistance: Staff monitor your table grill to offer recommendations and cooking guidance whenever needed.
  • Complimentary Side Refills: Generous set menus feature complimentary side salad top-ups throughout dinner.
