Tried this place out for weekday dinner and got their kimchi fried rice. There were 3 kiosks where you can self-order and pick everything that you want included or not included. Food was decent and of very large portions. It is enough to share amongst people or takeout for later, and pricing is reasonable. Ambiance is nice and clean. Most people seem to order online and takeout here.

The portion is super large and you get to pick what you want in the bowl. I thought they gave too little sauce but it's ok since they gave me more when I asked for it free of charge. Everything tasted good and fresh and the place was clean and had a rest room. In the end they gave us complimentary drinks saying they never let people leave without a smile (I guess I looked stress loll) super sweet staff and yummy food

Had a quick lunch at Koba today! The food was so fresh and healthy. The beef was very juicy and flavourful. A special thanks to Gavi for taking his time to explain the menu and also for the ChocoPie. Soooo good!

My friend ordered their lunchbox set while I got the kimbap and KOBA bowls, which were not only delicious but also came in generous portions perfect for sharing. The KOBA bowl comes with customizable bases, proteins, and variety of toppings to choose from. Plus, the small free snack adds a delightful touch to the dining experience. What's even better is the 20% discount for first responders and military personnel, showing appreciation for their service. Highly recommend!

I've been curious about this place for a while! I've only ordered delivery thus far from this place, and honestly I think I will continue to order delivery since everything seems to be curated to withstand said service, which is awesome. I got the pork belly ssam bap set with soybean paste stew, and I was more than pleased for everything I received with the price point. Mostly pros with some conditions: 1. Both red and green long peppers in the ssam veggie plate which is nice and traditional. 2. SSAMJJANG was pretty freaking good! Great mixture, and great consistency perfect for the food. 3. The roasted garlic bulb is a really nice touch, however I did slice up some raw garlic just because that's how I was raised to eat ssamjjang with. 4. Scallions were sliced to my preferences, on a bias rather than a cross cut. Great sign. If you like your scallion salad marinated I suggest ordering in so you can add extras to how you see fit. 5. No sesame oil/ salt, however along with point 6 there seems to be a sesame and perilla leaf shortage (not clear why) but I noticed fresh leaves are not readily available in stores- so I understand not wanting to give out said oil in case it just goes to the garbage. Also supplemented this side at home. Not a negative at all. 6. Normally there are perilla and or sesame leaves indicated in the ssam set, however again I understand these may not be readily available at previous price points now. 7. Pork belly was totally fine, and rice was actually pretty solid, not just an afterthought. 8. Daengjjang jjigae (soybean paste soup) also very solid. Aces. And for less than $4 for a nice amount, it beats anywhere else in the city. For 25 bucks, this beats any in person solo KBBQ meals or delivery in NYC, you'd probably get the same amount of food for three times the price ordering delivery elsewhere. And before anyone throws shade why would anyone ever order KBBQ for delivery, we've all been there. Walked by this place a few times from work, place looks pretty straightforward. Small, clean, and seemingly quiet.

I ordered delivery from this place and it is the best food I have gotten delivered. I got the spicy pork Saam Bap Set ($18) with multigrain rice. I took one bite of the spicy pork and an instant ridiculous amount of flavor hit me. It pairs perfectly with all the sides. You get an assortment of things to wrap your meat with. The roasted garlic is a perfect touch to each bite and all the assortment of vegetables keep each bite unique and different. Beautifully packaged, will definitely order from here again.

- awesome service - large portion - great beef rib - good bulgogi - a lot of food for $15 - 'great' kimchi - soso pork - lots of space for lunch - kiosk ordering Might be faster if u pre order - u can make one protein and all vegetables if u want You don't have to carb it up with rice or noodles - the moon pies are surprisingly good too

Found this place while walking around midtown, and I'm definitely glad I did. The restaurant itself is relatively small but with a decent number of chairs and a couple kiosks for ordering. We went for an early-ish dinner and there were very few people eating in the restaurant, but as we ate we saw many people order it for takeout as well as delivery drivers picking up food. We both ordered the Koba bowl with various toppings, which is $15 as of July 2023. The food took a decent amount of time to come out, but they seemed relatively busy with the number of orders they had. My bowl (the one on top) had a majority of the free toppings and beef bulgogi over half rice half noodles with sauce on the side. The bowl comes with a little treat, and I picked a yakult. The bowl has the same flavor concept as any other bowl place, combining tasty ingredients to get a tasty meal, but the sheer number of toppings combined with the flavor of the meat and size of the bowl made this one of the best bowl-type restaurants I've ever been to. With a basic chicken bowl at Chipotle being $12 now, I'd gladly pay $3 more to get this bowl (I just wish it was closer to my office). The only negatives I had were the garlic chips were *too* flavorful, and I would've preferred cooked onions over raw. Both can be easily solved by just not getting the topping or specifying less of them in the special instructions. I'm definitely coming back again!

Starting to get obsessed with this place - its a Korean bowl building restaurant. Work in the area and it has joined the wave of fast causal dining. Lunchtime traffic is crazy but they do have an online ordering system. Lets get to the food. Base of white rice, multigrain rice, glass noodles, or salad. Then a protein. The toppings are unlimited which love - they have a large array to choose from. Kimchi, spicy radish, white radish, beansprout, carrots, eggplants, mushrooms, etc - you name it they have it! On top of that they have a sauce options on the side to add to your bowl. The portion is actually crazy - they provide a lot of food. I will say compared to most places in the area where you pay 11-14 for lunch it runs you 16 bucks.
