I was excited to try Hoban and was pretty disappointed. We came for the barbeque items. It was very overpriced, small portions, and the side dishes were lacking. The bibimbop was tasty and well-priced, I'd get that again. I would not recommend going to Hoban when there are much better options in the area.

Making reservations over the phone was easy. Upon arrival, my wife and I were greeted by Rudy. He was welcoming and very pleasant to talk with. Our server was Cody. He was laid back and very chill. The food came out exceptionally quickly. This was around 4:30 p.m. As this was our second visit to the restaurant, we had ordered more variety than the first experience, and it was all worth it. Throughout our experience, Cody and Rudy were very attentive. Overall, my wife and I will be coming back as the food and the staff were terrific! Thank you!!

While in the Cities we found a place called Hoban Korean BBQ. We had to try as my cat's name is Hoban. lol It was our final destination for dinner for our trip to the Cities. It was a little weird when we went to the place. It didn't look open, and we didn't see anyone inside. So we were double checked Google and it said it was open, so, we went back and tried the door a couple of times and it was. I am glad we came back to make sure. The one thing we found in MN is restaurants serve a lot of food. We should have shared an entrée and appetizer. The food was good, just way too much. I realize that may not really be a problem, just something we were not prepared for.. We enjoyed all the food and would recommend.

Had a great experience! Went there for my birthday with my family. First time too also! The host was very friendly and I would also recommend booking a reservation in advance if all possible. Nice that they remain open late, but they still can be very busy. No menu, everything is online by scanning the QRC code on the table. Or, we never asked for one cause we saw the QRC code on the table. We did the korean bbq and had ordered the thick pork belly, marinated beef short ribs, bugolgi, some veggies and fried chicken wings with white rice. All comes with side dishes. All very good! We also ordered a lychee saku and it is nice to know it comes with a lychee fruit in it too (all in the silver pitcher, can’t see). Place looks clean and decent. Our waiter was very nice too! The reason why only 4 stars, street/meter parking only, no valet either. If busy, food/drinks can be delay, understandable.

Make sure u have a reservation b4 going. They are busy for seating. They still take in walk ins, but the wait will b long.
1st time going back since covid. For some reason, the food just didn't taste the same. Maybe it's our taste buds, but we didn't leave feeling satisfied. Overall, food looks good n yummy but taste was ok.
Service was fantastic for being a very busy night. Our waitress was friendly, patience n outgoing.

Really love this place...Felt a lil awkward when we first glanced at the menu(as far as what, how much and how to order) but our waiter was very friendly and helpful in navigating the menu, suggesting options, and answering all of our questions.
The prices on the menu were quite reasonable( BBQ/self grill) around $15-40 per meat depending on what you choose(enough for two ppl). A lot of sides come with a single meat order and glad our waiter informed us beforehand or we would've ordered way too much.
There are tons of other dishes and options (huge menu) beside the BBQ but we came for the BBQ experience and left fat and happy.
It was a fun experience and would definitely do it again.

Customer service was excellent! I'd say food was alright. We ordered pork belly, beef bulgogi for the KBBQ, seafood bibimbap, chicken bibimbap, and Tteok-bokki.

This place was amazing. First time getting Korean BBQ. We came with some friends and couldn't have been happier! We got so stuffed from all the delicious options. The wings are so good!

I love this place! Second time having dinner and each time I received excellent customer service and delicious food! The staff is quick, recommends great items off the menu and have great attitudes. I always make sure to leave a massive tip because they provide a wonderful experience. Try the Kimchi pancake, chicken fried rice and strawberry soju.

Fantastic service. Great menu choices. Excellent quality. Eaiter kept stopping by 5o refill the ample sauces and sides. They were out of the wings, but we left so dull I don't know why we would have ordered them. Loved every bite and will be back soon. My fave? The short ribs, without a doubt don't skip them.
