Disappointing Beef Rice Bowl
My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. I ordered a beef rice bowl, and it was far from satisfactory. The rice was soggy, and there were only a meager three small pieces of beef, barely the size of a finger.
To make matters worse, the dish was drenched in an unbearably sour kimchi sauce. I found the overall experience to be awful, especially considering it was more expensive than other branches. It seems people only dine here due to company meal tickets; otherwise, no one in their right mind would choose to eat here.

Awesome Food Truck Reopening!
It's great that they have finally reopened the food truck! My experience was fantastic. The food tasted very well, and their buffalo wings were absolutely awesome.
The atmosphere was also a highlight, rated at a 5. The food itself was rated a 5, and the service was a 4.

Unchewable Meat and Slow Service
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. The service is getting slower, and on my last two visits, the meat was absolutely unchewable. While the meat did have flavor, it was gross to eat.
The atmosphere was great, but the food quality was a major letdown.

Disappointing Crispy Chicken Bowl
My experience with the Crispy Chicken Bowl was not worth it. The chicken pieces were really really small, and the rest of the meal consisted of plain rice and salad. The salad was pretty dry as it lacked any dressing.
The portion of kimchi was also so little and tasted bland, missing any 'kimchi kick'. Ordering was done via a tablet, and while there was a sign for ready orders, they didn't use it, relying instead on calling names. My name was not called.
Furthermore, the app or e-receipt showing the pickup time was incorrect.

Disappointing Service, Okay Food
My experience at this restaurant was mixed. The food was okay, but the people working there were not so pleasant. Someone in my party forgot to ask for cutlery.
When I asked if they had forks, they started laughing and responded dismissively, asking if I thought they wouldn't have forks in a restaurant. This attitude made me decide not to return.

Delicious Tacos at Koja Kitchen
My experience at Koja Kitchen was fantastic, especially their tacos. They are packed with your favorite meat and served in a warm tortilla. The beef taco was the best, being incredibly well-seasoned and flavorful.
The food was rated a perfect 5, and the service and atmosphere also received top marks of 5. It's a great spot for dinner with a price range of $1–$10 per person.

Mixed Feelings on Korean BBQ Food Truck
My experience at this food truck was a mix of highs and lows. The customer service was great, and the menu looked very enticing. As a fan of Korean BBQ, I was eager to try their offerings.
We sampled the beef koja, which was quite flavorful, though I wasn't a huge fan of the crispy rice bun. The braised pork bowl, however, was slightly disappointing. The pork itself lacked significant flavor and really needed the accompanying kimchi to enhance it.
I had higher hopes for this food truck and would definitely pick the beef over the pork next time.

Dry and Tasteless Vegetarian Taco
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. I ordered the vegetarian taco and fries, but both were dry and tasteless. I couldn't even finish them.
I regret not checking reviews before coming.

Reliable Lunch Choice at Koja
I visited Koja on a Tuesday for lunch with a friend. We walked around to check out other stalls, but I usually end up back at Koja. It's a safe choice for a satisfying meal.

Confusing Burger Experience
I usually enjoy exploring restaurants, but this particular experience was confusing for me. The burger, featuring teriyaki beef and hard rice buns, was distasteful and extremely difficult to eat. The rice buns had a rubber sponge-like consistency, and while the meat itself was very good, the combination was displeasing.
The waffle fries arrived cold and lacked toppings. The shredded meat was decent but not remarkable. I believe the meat is flavorful and might be good in a rice bowl with sauteed veggies, but this particular dish was not satisfying.
