About OGONG BBQ Lidcombe

Real charcoal embers and hefty, well-marbled beef sets make OGONG BBQ Lidcombe an easy call for a proper communal feast. Staff swap out dedicated grates between cuts while pork belly, tongue, and wagyu sizzle over genuine coals. Between bites of tender short rib, tables crowd with banchan, bubbling tofu stew, and soy garlic fried chicken crisp enough to hold its own against the grill.

  • Real Charcoal Table Grills: Tables cook over glowing charcoal embers with dedicated grill swaps tailored for wagyu, tongue, and pork cuts.
  • Fried Chicken & Stews: Crisp bone-in fried chicken in soy garlic and sweet chili sauces balances out the heavy beef platters.
  • Family-Sized Platters: Generous wagyu combos and naturally tender cuts easily feed groups and picky toddlers alike.
