Our first visit to Koba on a brisk Saturday evening in March 2024 left a lasting impression. The service was warm and attentive, and the food was simply outstanding. We opted for Combo B, a wise choice that brought us the succulent Galbi short ribs, a generous assortment of veggies, and the fiery Buldak Ramen (and more!!).
The beef sirloin and boneless ribs were standout dishes, and the chicken options didn’t lag behind in flavor. A word to the wise: the Buldak Ramen packs a punch, so tread lightly if spicy isn’t your middle name.
A couple of logistical hiccups kept Koba from clinching a perfect 5. The absence of an indoor waiting area, coupled with a no-reservation policy, meant we braved a chilly 50-minute wait outdoors before retreating to our car until our table was ready. An indoor waiting space (e.g. a bar or seating) or the option to reserve a table would have been a more comfortable way to pass time.
Additionally, navigating the cramped parking lot was a challenge, though we managed to secure a spot within 5-10 minutes. It seems that a reservations system could alleviate some of the parking congestion, as several patrons resorted to waiting in their vehicles.
In conclusion, Koba delivers on the promise of exceptional food and service. Moses recommends Koba Korean BBQ AYCE, noting it’s just a whisker away from a flawless 5-star experience!
