It's pretty tasty! Just a bit pricy for what it is, but it's a good spot I forgot to take pictures of the rest. beef tongue: cook with the oil salt they give you. it tastes so good. bibimbap: really good Chicken skewers: tasty, a little dry bulgogi: soft, sweet, good Overall Good flavors

We actually really liked our dinner at Hoban BBQ. Other than all the construction on Lake/Hennepin streets, which is not their fault (but definitely be aware of it when getting here), our meal was nearly flawless. All of the dishes we tried were great. For appetizers, we had mandu, a scallion pancake, tteokbokki, and tempura veggies. All of the portions were HUGE, and everything tasted great (especially the pancake, it's a MUST ORDER dish!). We also got spicy pork and beef bulgogi to BBQ. Both of those portions were also huge, and tasted amazing. Everything about the grill worked well, and the ventilation was great (we didn't smell like BBQ at all after). They have one type of Korean beer on tap (which is basically all you can get in Minnesota). The service was pretty quick and friendly. The restaurant was very clean (they spent a lot of time cleaning each place setting after guests left their tables), and the bathrooms were good too. Do keep in mind, many of the streets around here are torn up for construction over the summer, so allow lots of extra time, and plan to park in one of the two nearby garages as there is almost no street parking.

As someone who travels through Korea often, Hoban is the spot in the Twin Cities! My favorite was the Hoban Galbi. It is very authentic K-BBQ where you will be grilling yourself. Keep in mind that part of the authenticity comes with a service style more similar to Korea. It is not an in and out restaurant, enjoy the atmosphere and time with the company you are with. I would recommend making reservations ahead of time, sometimes it isn't required but it's better to have one than not. 감사합니디!

I love Hoban! Such friendly and welcoming service, and the aroma grabs you as soon as you enter the foyer. Apple Maps mistakenly navigated me towards a Minneapolis location I've never been to as I'm only familiar with the Eagan location. And it was worth the drive to get there! It's been years since we've been here, but it brought back so many memories for my wife and I. We reminisced about what our favs were, so we ordered up! I highly recommend the bulgogi, the bibimbap, spicy wings, and how could I go without mandu?? We almost went with the pork bulgogi because it's spicy but we opted to make a return date night another time! Also, if karaoke is your thing, stop by their Do Re MI Karaoke, the rooms were packed and there was even a group of 7 ladies who were jammin out. Hoban is great for large families or groups or for a special date night. I sat right next to my bride in the booth and we had all the food in front of us, I joked that we should play the game Sushi Go! Visit Hoban, it'll become one of your instant fav's!!

Our server was super friendly! He was always checking on us to see if we needed anything. Unfortunately you need to purchase two order of raw meat in order to grill but they were nice enough to suggest that they cook the meat at the back if we still wanted the bulgogi so we did that instead. I feel like the bulgogi was a little dry but overall still very good! This place is a little pricy but portion of food is a lot so it makes up for it. Sadly there's no free parking lot. It's all street meter parking only.
