The Originator of the Kogi Taco - Alibi Room





I recently tried the famous Kogi Taco Truck one day after running at UCLA where it was camped out. I learned that the chef that created the tacos was working out of the Alibi Room, a bar located very close to the school that I work at. I went to try out the place with my foodie cousin and my sister. We got there around 7pm and it was pretty packed. The Alibi Room is a fully stocked bar as well so you can get your drink on in addition to your taco. We started off with some Korean spiced fries served with a sriracha and mayo sauce. They were so perfectly fried....I could have eated another basket. Then some lady that was sitting near us said that the Vegan Tacos were the unsung hero of the menu, so we tried those. It was just eh for me. But I guess if you are Vegan, you would probably love them. We had the Kogi Tacos of course. I think the pork is the best choice out of the Beef, Chicken, and Tofu. And we ended with some Kimchi Quesadillas which tasted quite interesting. But since I love cheese and I love kimchi...I loved it. This place is a definite must try on my list. Very interesting food and a chill place to hang out and have a drink after work. PS: get there before 8 or there is no place to stand or eat.
