New Jersey Fort Lee Korean Galbi-jjim



Galbi-jjim stands as a testament to the sophistication of Korean cuisine. This dish, where tender short rib meat harmonizes with a deep-flavored marinade, is more than just food. It's a reflection of Korea's culinary heritage, often gracing tables during special occasions and family gatherings. At Onga, we've brought this cherished tradition to New Jersey, allowing you to experience a taste of Korea's finest right here in Fort Lee.


The Onga Difference: Our Approach to Galbi-jjim

At Onga, we prepare our Galbi-jjim by blending time-honored traditions with modern culinary techniques. Here's what makes our Galbi-jjim special:

  1. Premium Ingredient Selection: We use only the highest quality short ribs, carefully selected for their marbling and tenderness. This ensures that every bite of our Galbi-jjim is succulent and flavorful.

  2. Proprietary Marinade: Our secret marinade combines over 20 ingredients, creating a complex flavor profile that's both sweet and savory. We use natural ingredients like Asian pear, apple, and onion to enhance the meat's natural flavors and tenderize it further.

  3. Slow-Cooking Process: To achieve the perfect texture, we slow-cook our Galbi-jjim for over 7 hours at a low temperature. This method ensures that the meat remains moist and literally falls off the bone.

  4. Meticulous Preparation: Every step in preparing our Galbi-jjim is executed with precision and care. We trim the fat to achieve the perfect balance of leanness and flavor, and cut the meat into ideal portions for the best dining experience.


A Unique Serving Experience

At Onga, we believe that presentation is just as important as taste. We've prepared a video to showcase our unique serving method for Galbi-jjim.





As you can see in this video, we serve our Galbi-jjim on a sizzling hot stone plate. This not only keeps the dish warm throughout your meal but also creates a tantalizing sizzle as the sauce gently bubbles, releasing its aromatic flavors. This method enhances both the visual appeal and the overall taste experience of our Galbi-jjim.
