Okja K Pub - Cary

After driving an hour and a half with my family based on some reviews and pictures, I can confidently say it was totally worth it. The Korean fried chicken was incredible, and the spicy black dish was equally fantastic. This has definitely become my favorite Korean restaurant!

Everything here was fresh and delicious. I ordered the burger, and it was so good that I completely forgot to take a photo. The bibimbap and wings were worth the visit on their own. I also tried the soju flight, and while they were all fantastic, the peach flavor was my favorite!

We were perplexed by her insistence and honestly didn't mind the extra rice, but her aggressive approach to this issue was off-putting. Given the size of our order, an additional $2.50 for a cup of rice wouldn't have mattered much, but her behavior was surprising. We ultimately told her to take it back, noting that it was her mistake in bringing it out, placing it on our table, and then picking it up while insisting we shouldn’t have it. It was frustrating! I wish restaurants would recognize that dining out is about more than just the food; it's also about how servers treat their customers. A little understanding could go a long way in encouraging repeat business!

I received the wrong dish, and the server was argumentative about it. My water was never refilled, and the service overall was rude and lacking. The correctly served dishes were tasty, but I won't be returning.

I visited this restaurant based on my sister's recommendation and we had a chance to try quite a few dishes. We ordered the naengmyun for $15.99, grilled mackerel for $16.99, a large tang soo yook for $25.99, and two sushi rolls for $14.99 each. The tang soo yook was crispy and had a delightful flavor in its sauce, which my parents really enjoyed. The grilled mackerel was appreciated as a comforting dish. I thought the naengmyun was just okay, mainly because I wasn't fond of the tangy broth that accompanied it. The sushi rolls were decent too, but I wasn't a fan of the wasabi sauce in the okja special, and the seaweed in both rolls felt a bit stale. However, I did find the taste of the san’s special roll to be quite good. The service was impressively quick, and our waitress was friendly, even remembering my sister from her previous visit with friends. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for its diverse food selection, and the dining experience was quite enjoyable!
