Kogi BBQ

Kogi BBQ remains the gold standard of LA's food truck scene, serving Roy Choi's legendary Korean-Mexican fusion that sparked a nationwide revolution in 2008. The signature short rib taco, marinated for 24 hours in a soy-ginger glaze, commands $4.50—a price that outperforms the average gourmet truck's offering while delivering double the meat portion, making it both affordable and generous.
