ChangGo was born from a passion to bring the essence of Korean BBQ to Melbourne—flavourful, interactive, and rooted in tradition. From day one, the focus has been on delivering high-quality meats, generous side dishes, and a warm, unpretentious dining experience. It’s the kind of place where the grill is hot, the banchan is endless, and the vibe is always buzzing.
The Menu: A Feast for All
The crown jewel of the menu is the famous Palsaik Set—eight cuts of pork belly, each marinated in a different flavour: Original, Garlic, Herb, Curry, Wine, Pepper, Soybean, and Hot Chilli. It’s a flavour journey that’s as fun to cook as it is to eat .
Beyond pork, the menu features premium cuts like Wagyu Scotch Fillet and Ox Tongue, ideal for those craving a melt-in-your-mouth experience. The Seafood Pancake is another standout—crispy on the outside, packed with seafood inside, and perfect for sharing.
Vegetarians and vegans aren’t left out either. ChangGo offers a vegan BBQ set with marinated tofu and fresh vegetables, ensuring everyone gets to enjoy the grill .
No Korean BBQ is complete without banchan, and ChangGo delivers with a rotating selection of kimchi, pickled radish, seasoned sprouts, and more. Pair it all with a steaming bowl of Spicy Seafood Soup or a comforting Kimchi Stew to round out your meal.
The Vibe: Lively, Laid-Back, and Always Worth the Wait
Inside, ChangGo is cozy and energetic. The space is often packed, filled with the sounds of sizzling meat and laughter. The DIY grilling adds to the fun, and while you might leave smelling like BBQ, it’s all part of the charm .
They don’t take bookings, so expect a wait during peak hours—but trust us, it’s worth it. The turnover is quick, the service is efficient, and the food is consistently excellent
