Food is incredible and portion sizes are abundant. My only gripe about the atmosphere aspect was that the vents for the BBQ didn't take care of the smoke very well. Members of my party kept getting smoked out at the table. Don't let that deter you at all though... I will definitely be back.

Food was ok but it's not an all you can eat Korean BBQ place like most of them. It was expensive. For what we paid, we could have had all you can eat at other places. No parking lot and paid street parking only.

My wife and I had never done Korean BBQ that you cook yourself. The staff was super helpful and the quality of the food was great. We had a great time.

We visited Hobun on 6/14 at 7 PM and were served by the only male server on staff that evening. From the start, his demeanor seemed off and he was high.

We waited approximately 40 minutes without receiving our food. Eventually, the server returned to confirm our order and casually mentioned that he had forgotten to enter it into the system. He left quickly after delivering this news.

Given the long wait and lack of accountability, we decided to leave. We informed the front desk, and my husband also let the server know the situation was unacceptable. The server then followed us outside to argue about how long we had waited. Additionally, we noticed he was chewing gum while working, which struck us as unprofessional in a restaurant setting.

The food was really good and waiters were very polite and welcoming. But as we entered the establishment we were welcomed with an unpleasant smell that was noticed right away came from the floors, they were sticky, and you can see shoe prints. Floors need to be deep cleaned.

Very delicious Korean food and great cuts of meat to cook on grill. Enjoy the hot, right at your fingertips food you cook at your pace.

Definitely do’t go! Food is far from satisfactory, not worth the price. The number of guest will tell you it is not a good restaurant .

1st and foremost the value is seriously lacking at this establishment.
A meal for 2 with 2 bottles of Soju was $160 before a tip.
Each meat item was barely enough for a single person, so make sure you order two of the $30/Pc. Items.
We did brisket and marinated short ribs and had to double the order of each to have a proper portion. Note that neither of the diners are overweight. Just looking for a good meal after a long day.
The sides, two pieces of broccoli being one of them, will cost extra To refill. So don't eat your two florets too quickly. The sauces were mediocre and portions also lacking. The kimchi was good, so that was neat .
Secondly, the overall establishment could use a refresh and cleaning. For a premium dollar experience I hope for a premium environment. The seats were worn and torn and the walls had literal grease running down from the ceiling, as well as splattered all over the adjacent wall of the booth we sat at.
We dined at this facility 3 years prior and it was a good experience. But it seems, like many of the other reviewers, something has changed recently and the quality/value just isn't there anymore.
Overall the service was courteous and attentive but the price to portion had us wishing we drove a little further to the all you can eat place for $40/person with significantly more variety in options.
