Kobi Q Kansas City

It's not a huge spot; it's not super fancy. But the food is solid, and it has a kind of gritty-local vibe. Is it Korean? Japanese? Chinese? A Midwest amorphous blend of KBQ and crab Rangoon- certainly. This is not K-town in Los Angeles. It's also not a grill your own Korean BBQ thing. It is decisely KCMO. Our second time coming here, the mama's chicken was just as good as we remembered it. It is their most popular serving and questionable in its regional origins. We have also had the wings - a solid choice. The menu also includes some tofu options and pescaterian options, if that's your thing. Given that it is downtown, you have to find parking, but there are meters around the corner that take cards and quarters. It is somewhat conveniently close to the Tmobile arena and a few other spots. Prices are reasonable for downtown. There's also a nice selection of drinks including some Japanese Whiskey selections. And it's in an old bank building with a vault, which is kinda cool. This is a solid, hip spot for good food. Not pretentious. Just good. I imagine some art bro headed to first Friday's at Crossroads will try to impress some gal with his culinary prowess by taking her to authentic KBQ here. This is not that. But she could do worse.

Kobi Q was an amazing experience. Some of the most friendly and helpful staff and home of one of the best resutrants we have been to in the KC area. We have had our fair share of Korean food around KC and Overland Park and we have to say this is our no. 1 spot by far. All the food options we ordered were perfect and tasted amazing. We got the... 🍛 Spicy BBQ Pork & Ricecakes 🥘 Sundubu-Jjigae w/Beef Extra Spicy 🥟 Beef Dumplings 🍗 Korean Fried Chicken (Spicy Dry Rub Sichuan & Sweet Galic Glazed) There Korean Fried Chicken was some of the best we've ever had. It was so good infact we ordered two orders for our party. It's a definite must try when visiting. We also highly reccommened their cocktails of the night. You can't go wrong with any of the options. 🍹 Can't wait to visit again soon. 💚
