The restaurant

Cocobang serves Korean fried chicken, barbecue, stews and shared plates at 550 Taylor Street in San Francisco. The website puts the food, late-night hours and ways to order within easy reach.

Find a dish, then order

The dedicated menu page has 26 dishes across five categories. Guests can search by name or filter by category, then choose Uber Eats, DoorDash or Grubhub to place an order. The links open the restaurant's ordering pages on those services.

Make the visit easy to plan

The site brings together the address, phone number, hours and common questions. Hours run until 2 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and 4 a.m. on Friday and Saturday, with overnight closing times kept consistent across the page and structured data.

Built for local search

The home and menu pages include structured data for the restaurant, menu and frequently asked questions. Google Analytics and Search Console are connected so we can measure visits and search visibility after launch.
