Koba - London

Very authentic Korean cuisine, the fried rice cake was delicious! The waitress lady was exceptionally nice and sweet!

I really like this place but the prices have increased like crazy.. I went here for dinner in August 2023 and the Korean BBQ was under £40, went again in January 2024 and it was £55 with less ingredients (baby octopus was taken out). The menus available online do not reflect the current prices if I had known this was the case, I'd have gone elsewhere. £100+ for two people, no alcohol, no dessert is a bit insane (just one BBQ, one starter and a couple of soft drinks). Great quality but for this price I really don't know if it's worth it..

It was a while since I had my last corean meal and it was a first for my partner and here we land and Koba. The minimalist setting may be a set back but it’s only added value to help a client focus more on the meal. From the staters 3 selections) to the main barbecue seafood. It was a complete beautiful well orchestrated meal. With a lot of help from the floor manager by the way we were seated at the bar near the entrance which is way nicer than inside) with the barbecue and the slicing and the explanation it was a very satisfying experience. Trust your staff. They know their product and they can help you although they tend to be be a bit hasty like they want to be done with you and have to next client fill in your place ! Eat to your heat and your stomach’s delight the deserts aren’t up to the meals’ level. So you can stop there without any regret. It’s not a good experience it’s a great one. Word of the wise don’t leave London without eating there at least one. Have a bowl of soup on my behalf! Cheers!

Atmosphere great, staff attentive. Prices are reasonable however bbq selection could be better together with the thickness of the cut compared to other Korean bbq I've tried.

Excellent concept and well executed, starters very tasty and bbq fun to prepare, but the pork was rather flavourless. Staff very friendly and willing to help with anything. Atmosphere was good, but felt a little cramped, especially when having annoying Americans sitting next to you and talking about all the affairs their parents had and breathing down your neck. Other than that, would recommend.
