Hoban | Korean Restaurant

Always disappointed by this restaurant. Called the restaurant for pick up. Puts on hold for 10 minutes after I ask for pick up , so I hang up, call again. They said they don't do pick up order, even though they have ordering services. I understand if you're busy and you can't take orders, but don't waste people's time with some bull shit excuses. 별 2개짜리 맛 레스토랑이 서비스는 ?창렬임.

Wanted to share my Uber Eats order experience. The driver was nice and efficient but the restaurant is cheap. For the price I paid for my food, they gave Zero condiments. I ordered 3 dishes totally over $70 and they did not provide any of the condiments they would have served in the restaurant. To me, that’s cheap and rude business practice. I will take my business elsewhere from now now. I ordered, kimchi Chigae, katsu chicken and pork bulgogi and they gave Zero condiments.

One of my favorite restaurants in the cities! I really love the kimchi pajeon and most of their meals are delicious! The service has always been great.

The quality of food and service at this place has certainly declined over the past two years. I live nearby and used to order from here occasionally. However, 75% of the time, my order would be incorrect or missing items. I usually order the spicy squid stir-fry and never once have I gotten my order packed correctly. All the squid and red sauce would seap through the styrofoam box and leak all over the bag. Which then would get all over my countertops and I’d have to salvage whatever is still edible. It's truly disappointing.

The staff also aren't very friendly and don't seem to care much about providing good service. There are much better Korean restaurants in the Twin Cities area.

Food was unappetizing. Cooking frozen dumplings from Costco would’ve tasted better unfortunately. The stone pot bibimbap barely had any chicken and the sauce was very bland.

Hoban has been one of my favorite restaurants for many years! Great Korean dishes and sizable portions. The chicken bulgogi (pictured) is my personal favorite as is the Korean chicken wings. I do miss their lunch buffets.

Waiter at 3 pm was so damn rude. Then they have auto chrge for gratuity for 18%for such rudeness. !!!galbi tang beef was so old looked and tasted like leftovers. Food was bad. Worst.

really good food! I am obsessed with their kimbap :)

Dietary restrictions: I think there is one item on their menu that has nuts (the yukhwe has pine nuts), but cross-contamination is not an issue here.
