I just dined here for the first time tonight, and I am blown away. Service was quick and everyone was super friendly. The food was INCREDIBLE. Portions are substantial, flavor is amazing, and our food arrived piping hot! This place is 10000% worth it. I will definitely be back!

Cannot rave enough about this amazing place! Growing up in the south, I never thought we would experience “real” Korean food, but this place has it all and more! Everything was perfect, from the tteokbokki, the taro boba tea, the Korean sides (that pickled radish!!), the soup (#29!!!), and the service! I cannot quite remember our waiters name, I believe it was something like Zula, but he was so great! He walked us through everything and was so helpful! This will not be the last time we go back, and if you are smart you will visit as well!

This place is so good! Lee has been our server twice and he is so nice and friendly. We have enjoyed the Booja sauce wings, the Korean dumplings, the bulgogi, and the bibimbap bowl. So good!

They attended to us in a timely manner. The chicken was fine, but the crab rangoons and shrimp fried rice was better. We did not like the ice tea because it had a strong presence of something other than tea. The lemonade was a bit better.We went around 5:30pm on a Friday and it was only about 6 other people in there. We didn't mind because we do not like crowded restaurants. All-in-all, 4/5 rating it was clean and the hostess was very nice.

All the servers are so amazing! The food comes out fast. AND ITS AMAZING! Very fresh, always cooked to order. It’s a regular spot for me and my family. It’s never super busy and I’m not sure why because it’s probably the best Korean/Asian food I’ve ever had. They have plenty of booths and lots of parking. Whenever family from out of town come to visit this is where I take them. Love you BOOJA!Vegetarian options: TONS or vegetarian options.Parking: Lots of parking spotsKid-friendliness: Booths are car seat friendly!

Went here for the first time this week. The service and food were phenomenal and there was plenty left to take home. I had never heard of a seafood pancake before, but it was great! We’ll definitely be back.

This was our first visit. A little overwhelming as we did not know what to order. I had the Bulgogi with white rice and all the sides. It was very good. She had the Dolsot Bibimbob said she didn't like it and will try something else next time. The spring rolls and crab Rangoon was awesome.

I found my new favorite restaurant in the area! The food is amazing!! The restaurant is clean and comfortable, and the staff is super friendly. They answered all our questions about the different dishes and had great recommendations. The Korean flavor combinations are incredible and the wings were perfect! Delicious. Kicking myself for not trying it sooner.
The food is great here. The only big issue is they've skyrocketed the prices. They've raised them more than once in the last 2-3 years and it's a significant jump. Bulgogi bento box at lunch time is now $26.

What a treat to find a yummy authentic Korean restaurant in Gastonia!We started with a Kimchi pancakes. Never had it with Kimchi, very good! I had a bulgogi hot stone bowl. I was thrilled to hear the sizzling. It was delicious.My husband had the chicken wings, half the special Booja sauce (his favorite) and half honey BBQ sauce. All finger licking good.Our waitress was excellent, very helpful!If you enjoy good Korean food, I highly recommended it.Vegetarian options: Lots of tofu options.

I ordered takeout the other night and would have given 5 stars if it weren't for the Japchae being very spicy after I specifically requested for it to not be spicy. The chicken hibachi was also very bland and had no sauce at all. However, the gyoza and bibimbap were delicious. The bibimbap had little meat. I'm sure if I had eaten there I wouldn't have faced these issues. If I get a non spicy japchae next time I'll change my rating for sure.

Love this place. Today we had the Booja Wings, Delicious! We try and eat there about once a week. They recently stopped serving sushi, which is fine. I always go for the Korean food. We have yet to be disappointed except when they're closed. I recommend this place to everyone.I'm going to edit this: We went on 7/24 and a lot has changed. We ordered the Korean Dumplings which were good. The wings were smaller and a bit chewy like they changed from fresh wings to a frozen product. The calamari was similar to what chewing on a rubberband would be like. We spoke to the server and she got the manager and we were told that's how we cook it. They no longer have a lunch menu and all the prices have been jacked up considerably. Very disappointing. I will be going to Greenville SC for korean food from now on.
