From the moment we walked into koba, we knew we were in for something special. The warm, inviting atmosphere paired with the delicious aroma of sizzling meats and savory spices set the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Service was impeccable! The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, taking the time to explain dishes and recommend the best combinations. Their passion for Korean cuisine truly shined through. Whether you’re a fan of Korean food or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. Amazing flavors, top-notch service, and an authentic experience that will have you coming back for more. 10/10 highly recommend!

We had an early dinner at Koba and tried their bento box. The staff were attentive and friendly . Helping customers to make selection and explaining the ingredients to them. When it’s my turn i was glad they entertained my request. Meal portion was legit and delicious... The staff even checked on our meal satisfaction after that so it’s really a cosy experience. I just wish the music was softer.

This place is amazing! I was looking for Korean food in the area and decided to bring my family here. The prices are very reasonable, the staff is polite and helpful, and the food tastes great with generous portions. The atmosphere is okay—nothing special—and they don’t have a high chair, but overall it’s a great spot for delicious Korean food.

Not much of a reviewer. And as a Korean-American, I don’t usually expect Korean fast casual to be all that good. I’d say this spot is as good as fast casual could be. Having something like 15 banchan to choose from (including things like burdock or bellflower root) was a surprise at a fast casual spot, usually it’s just a couple choices like Napa cabbage or daikon kimchi. The lunch box came with a surprising amount of food for the price. No doubt it’s not the same as a full service or KBBQ restaurant, but it’s really good for fast casual.

I usually dont like paying more than $15 for a meal, so I walked by this place for a while averse of the $20 entree prices. But they are worth every penny. Probably 2-3 meals worth of food + a small dessert included.

Food was out of the ordinary with flavor, robust, and authenticity! The create your own bowl was unique and filling. The portions are large and can last for more than 1 meal. We got the pork belly and chicken, both very good! The major turn off was that the waiter used gloves to set aside the portions in the bowl (which was great!) although proceeded to wipe the sweat off of his face, then tie his shoe, and then go RIGHT BACK to preparing my meal, GROSS!

Tasty and generous portions. I ordered their traditional jap chae and Korean fried chicken for lunch, and they were both delicious. There were generous amounts of veggies and bulgogi along with the bouncy glass noodles mixed with savory, garlicky sauce with a hint of sesame oil. The bone-in fried chicken pieces were humongous compared to other chicken wing places; and they were smothered in plenty of honey butter, I couldn't stop licking my fingers. Definitely will visit again to try their other dishes!!! The restaurant and kitchen looked spacious and clean - You can see the chef and workers preparing the food. Very nice customer service and decor, and the prices already include taxes so there's no "extra" charge on top of the menu price.
