What to Eat
The Galbi — marinated beef short ribs grilled at the table in the Korean BBQ tradition — is the centerpiece that earns Dae Gee its Denver reputation. The Bulgogi with thin-sliced marinated beef that cooks quickly on the tabletop grill and wraps beautifully in lettuce with gochujang and garlic is the other flagship that most regulars rotate between. The Banchan — the small Korean side dishes of kimchi, pickled vegetables, and seasoned greens served alongside — are the table accompaniments that complete the Korean BBQ experience.
