Hoban Korean BBQ: Authentic Korean Barbeque Experience in Minneapolis

Long wait despite having reservations. The food was great, but my only complaint is that they don't warn you when they're out of sauces for tempura or mandu. Those are items only enjoyable with dipping sauce and I wouldn't have ordered them had I known they were out of sauce. Tempura eaten dry is especially terrible. The japchae is the absolute bomb, so delicious.

This was my first time eating out at a Korean BBQ restaurant. I didn't love my first time BUT I absolutely didn't hate it either. I enjoyed it for the most part. We ordered the bulgogi beef, porkbelly, shrimp tempura and pan fried dumplings. They do serve you side dishes and vegetables. My friend and I thought the side dishes were pretty good with good amount of portions. I liked the bulgogi beef! I thought it was seasoned pretty well. The shrimp tempura tasted great, the pan fried dumplings was pretty good too. However I do wish there was a bit more meat. I gave this a 4 star because my friends water cup was not washed throughly nor was his silver spoon. It still had leftover gunk that was NOT washed off. Once in a while, if I'm up for K.BBQ again, I'll probably go back and order different plates. But if you enjoy eating out in large groups, check out this spot!

My husband and I choose the BBQ option and it is a bit pricey but the portion was plentiful... I really like the spicy soft tofu stew a lot too. Overall the food was delicious and service was good. I would go and eat here again.

Fantastic service. Great menu choices. Excellent quality. Eaiter kept stopping by 5o refill the ample sauces and sides. They were out of the wings, but we left so dull I don't know why we would have ordered them. Loved every bite and will be back soon. My fave? The short ribs, without a doubt don't skip them.

Our first time here. We had a wonderful server who suggested some good food. Everything was delicious. We order beef and pork bulgogi, bibimbap and calamari stir fry. Bonchons were complementary. It’s a bit pricey, but if you go in a group it’s reasonable. Must try place in Minneapolis.

this was SO GOOD! my friends and i came here last night around 9pm. they got us a table quickly (we were walk-ins) and our order was taken fast. the service was amazing, shout out to logan! he made our experience here 10x better. the food was top tier and everything about hoban was just fun. i definitely recommend this place!

Had a great experience! Went there for my birthday with my family. First time too also! The host was very friendly and I would also recommend booking a reservation in advance if all possible. Nice that they remain open late, but they still can be very busy. No menu, everything is online by scanning the QRC code on the table. Or, we never asked for one cause we saw the QRC code on the table. We did the korean bbq and had ordered the thick pork belly, marinated beef short ribs, bugolgi, some veggies and fried chicken wings with white rice. All comes with side dishes. All very good! We also ordered a lychee saku and it is nice to know it comes with a lychee fruit in it too (all in the silver pitcher, can’t see). Place looks clean and decent. Our waiter was very nice too! The reason why only 4 stars, street/meter parking only, no valet either. If busy, food/drinks can be delay, understandable.

If you plan to come here on the weekends Make a reservation ahead of time by calling in. I went on a Friday night and I did get a table waited 15 mins I didn’t have a reservation. They have lots of different meat choices plenty of options and great side dishes. My favorite side dish was the potato salad super yummy. I will definitely be back it’s not cheap to enjoy this experience plan on spending over $50+ for two people.
