Located on the ground floor of the Green Sun Building at 2285 Chino Roces Avenue in Makati City, WOORI presents Korean barbecue as a meal meant to be enjoyed together. At the center of the experience is the tabletop grill, where different cuts of meat can be cooked and enjoyed alongside an assortment of Korean accompaniments.
Rather than treating barbecue as a quick feast, the restaurant creates an experience that encourages diners to take their time, share plates, and enjoy each course as it comes.
Meat naturally takes center stage at WOORI, where premium cuts are prepared for grilling and served with an assortment of Korean side dishes. The restaurant uses hanwoo, a native Korean cattle breed raised in the South Korean countryside and prized for its fine marbling, tenderness, and rich beef flavor.
Among the recommended cuts is the Salchisal (Php 1,900/100 g), also known as chuck tail flap, prized for its fine marbling and rich flavor.

Diners may also try the Hangjungsal (Php 980/100 g), or Jeju black pork jowl, known for its tender yet slightly chewy texture, as well as the O-gyupsal (Php 850/100 g), or Jeju black pork belly, which offers a satisfying balance of meat and fat when grilled.

Beyond the grill, diners can also look out for Korean dishes that complement the richer flavors of the meat. Pancakes, noodles, soups, rice dishes, and other comforting Korean favorites make good additions for groups who want to try more than barbecue during their visit.
The spacious setup also makes WOORI a fitting choice for dinners with family, friends, or colleagues. Its polished yet relaxed atmosphere keeps the focus on conversation and food, making the restaurant particularly suited for group meals and occasions that call for something more leisurely than the typical K-BBQ stop.
