Hoki Korean BBQ & Japanese Cuisine

Love this place! We’ve been going here for years! The people are friendly and the service is always excellent!

Visited this place multiple times never really had an issue til this visit. We ordered a seafood pancake. I specifically asked what was in seafood pancake and the waitress said just prawns. When I got the pancake there was a bunch of other stuff. When my fiance let the waitress know she said that she didn’t know there was more than just shrimp. She took it back no problem. Then the manager comes to me and tell us that the seafood pancake comes with everything and that it’s not their responsibility that we didn’t know that it was full of different seafood. I told her her that I asked the waitress what was in it and she said there was just shrimp in and she completely disregarded that I said that and just kept saying that it’s our responsibility to know. Like please make that make sense I literally asked what it contained. Took everything in me not to start going off but the lady had an attitude the rest of the time. I love the food her but the customer service was terrible why come and try to check a customer for something the waitress should know 🤦🏽‍♀️ I asked she said just shrimp so I took her word for it. I definitely won’t be coming back just off this experience. Please teach your servers what’s on the menu before trying to check a customer for something they should know. And learn to address a customer as well.

I've been eating Korean barbecue my entire life and this is the first time that I've been somewhere like this so if you've never had Korean barbecue before I would not consider this place to be authentic.

We got one sauce for the table I asked for another one and they tried to upcharge me for it and they explained I was supposed to slather on the sauce onto the meat and that it was one sauce per table.

It was quite warm in here they had a swamp cooler I don't know if there was no air conditioning but I was sweating the entire time.

The meat does not come marinated and maybe it's my own fault for having really high expectations for what this place could be but it definitely was not your normal Korean barbecue.

Overpriced, you're required to buy two meals @$25+ each and the Korean BBQ meals are limited, mostly sushi and salads. So be prepared to spend $50-100. I passed on eating there so I can't comment on the food quality.

Gave me the wrong drink twice and made me pay for it when I got up to leave.

Also super dark in there, would not recommend

My experience here was alright. I liked the sides I got with my food like the seaweed, marinated daikon radish and Kim chi I thought they were nice touches to my meal.

I ordered the $25 meal A from their menu.
The meat looked very different from traditional Korean bbq places I have been and were (in my opinion) very cheap replacements that weren't all that good. Like the thing sliced pork. Which was basically thick sliced bacon. Not very thing at all.

The only thing I enjoyed a lot was the chicken. The beef was very hard to enjoy and it was very chewy. I liked the vegetables that the meal came with like Eggplant, zucchini and onions. Those are always very nice. But all in all, this is not very worth the money.

I also enjoyed the sushi I got, I dont really remember the name unfortunately. But it was pretty good.

I should clarify that I paid about 100 bucks for my meal. The $25 A meals are for one person each. So I ordered the sushi roll, shrimp tempura and the two $25 A meals. Kinda pricey for what I could have gotten more for. Not really worth in my honest opinion.

Went here to pickup some Korean food for my neighbors. Had a really nice chat with the owner while nursing a beer. Ate here once before and the food was good. Good music. Good lighting. Pleasing milieu.

Service and food were both so enjoyable, food prep and visual aesthetic were top tier, as a parent I loved that they went over the menu with my kids to help them navigate flavors and textures

Almost towards the end of our meal a cockroach ran across our booth. We informed the server and she said “sorry about that” and walked away.

My husband called to actually place a order for four dragon rolls and the guy on the phone was SO RUDE! Dude we were actually gona buy the damn food!! Way to ruin it -.- no more sushi from this spot. Freakin backround noise was louder than the guy on the phone and he has the rudeness to say that my husband wasnt listening and still curses him out…

As someone from San Francisco, I went out of my way to try Hoki Korean BBQ and Japanese Cuisine, and it was worth every mile. My dad’s last picture was taken here, making this visit deeply personal—and I was not disappointed.

The food was **phenomenal**. The meat was perfectly marinated and grilled, bursting with flavor, and the fish used were fresh and delicious, and so is the rolls (Lion King and Spider). The portions were generous, and the prices were incredibly reasonable for the quality.

The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and welcoming. The staff and owner made us feel at home, adding to the warmth of the experience.

Hoki Korean BBQ and Japanese Cuisine is more than a restaurant; it’s a place where memories are made. Whether you’re honoring a loved one or simply craving amazing Korean BBQ, this place delivers. We’ll definitely be back.

Excellent food . Very nice atmosphere

Great place if you are not sure if you want Korean BBQ or Japanese. The sushi is very fresh and the pork katsudon curry was excellent.

Came here with my buddy and was pleasantly surprised. Got the pork ramen and it was delicious. The waitress was so nice and the bill was a lot less than I expected. Will definitely come back with friends.
