My friend and I have dinner here this evening. The food is amazing. I love the tofu stew and squid stone bowl bibimbab!!! And their homemade kimchi is the best one I’ve had!! Highly recommended

Went for Sunday lunch- and was not disappointed. The servers were very attentive and informative. The food options were varied and authentic. AND very good! Love the location and hope it does well as we will definitely be going back for different dishes! Note they have a lunch menu Tuesday through Fridays. Not on the weekends. Some of the menu items can get pricey- but there are good options for most budgets. They also have kids options- so great for a family.

My husband and I decided to try Okja for date night tonight and we had an amazing time! All of the staff members we encountered were kind and helpful. The atmosphere was beautiful, the music was playing at a nice volume and the food was delicious!We had the steamed dumplings, Kan jja jang and the Korean fried rice with chicken. The meal also came with several banchan items. Everything was so incredible! Great flavors!I also highly recommend the lychee soju, it was topnotch??

Really love this place and go here whenever I'm craving Korean food. Their outdoor seating is nice and spacious too. I would recommend trying their soju flavors, some of which I believe are made in house.

I came here with my wife and we were treated very poorly a little while ago. Waiter refused to let us sit in the non-bar area since they didn't want to "come all the way over". The food was poor quality and didn't seem authentic. Loud annoying music, unfriendly waiters, and smelly atmosphere left us with a very very bad impression.

The menu has changed. It is expensive for lunch and the quality of food is not up to par.

I have been going there few times and every time the Waitress was very rude and service was below average. Not going back again.

Besides the delicious food, the thing Okja has that's really special is their exceptional and welcoming service. Their workers truly try their best to take care of you and make sure you enjoy every last bite.

Under new management, Okja, K-pub & restaurant is a nice place to eat with family and friends. Our friend had a party with more than sixty folks and their party venue is sufficient enough to accommodate. Their service is excellent and we love the delicious authentic Korean food. I highly recommend this family friendly restaurant.

We loved it! Very kind staff, excellent food, and a cool atmosphere. If you like clear spirits, give the soju a try! Prices are a little below average for this area, but maybe higher than some might be comfortable with. Large portion sizes for each entree and complementary banchan.

Great atmosphere. Seating was quick. Came for dinner with my family. The server was great. He was attentive and knowledgeable about everything. The kimchi pancake was delicious. One of my faves. My fiance ordered the Dolsot bibimbop with bulgogi. He loved it. My dad got the normal jajjangmyun (with pork), which he devoured. My Umma and I ordered The seafood jajjangmyun (big enough for 2), and it was amazing. I have never had a seafood version. The banchan (side dishes) were delicious and there was plenty to eat. My fiance and I also ordered 2 of the soju sampler which was fantastic. I love soju (my uncle in Korea got me hooked back in 99) and wanted to taste the different flavors they offered. Overall... awesome restaurant. I highly recommend.Kid-friendliness: Offers booster seats/kids chairs
