The chicken bbq you wrap up in lettuce and top with a bunch of different things from their toppings bar. I really liked the pickled diakon radish. I thought the bimbab would be simple and bland, but it was absolutely delicious. They cook it at the table with a raw egg yolk, and a bunch of this awesome red hot sauce that has a very nice heat to it. The egg yolk sticks to all the rice as it cooks and the sauce coats the egg, it was so flavorful. The bbq sushi roll was cool too. I had never had anything like it before, it was set on fire! The fire warmed the roll and the toasted nori on top gave it a nice toasty flavor. The service was excellent, our waiter was constantly refilling our water glasses, and he even explained the menu to us as this place is very unique for the area. Just a few things, the menu could be laid out a little better, and the place still straight up looks like a diner. But I dont even care because there are no other places in the area that do this, and it is so good. The little details really make it. Your spoons come with a little paper shield on it, and they give you wet wiped for your hands. Also sides of rice come in this cool metal dish that keeps it warm throughout the meal. Value for the money? Comparable to other Asian places in the area, sushi might be a little more expensive.

I really want to give negative stars but cant. When we got there the place was empty, during lunch hours. The servers were nice... after ordering a combo (#4) we were told the bar was included. I havent had much experience with Korean food myself so my boyfriend walked me through it, I put a little of everything on my plate and went back to (the very cold) table. Two bites in there was a BUG dead under the sauce on my potatoes. I was disgusted!! We instantly brought it to the servers attention and then she brought our food out. I tried to eat it but I was inspecting every bite before I ate it until about 5 bites later I told my boyfriend I just couldnt. The gentleman he is, said okay Ill say something. They had the nerve to tell us, okay we will take the bar off your bill... the one that was included FREE with the combo!!!!! He asked for the manager, who then offered a tiny 15% off that would have totaled $6 off the $40 meal. He calmly said he wasnt okay with that and we were told "okay its free just go"... we tipped the server $5 on our way out. Will NEVER return. Go somewhere else.

I stumbled upon Koja when I was heading back from a road trip, and I have to stay that this place has an extensive menu for your typical Korean cuisines. I decided to get the chirashi (assorted sashimi) platter while my friend had the Bulgogi Bibimbap. The sushi did not taste anything special, along with the Bulgogi bibimbap. The bibimbap was served on a hot stone plate though which was a plus. However, nothing particular wowd me and everything was average overall. This is a decently sized establishment. Service here was nice but not as attentive and little slow considering there were not as many people when my friends and I were there. It does not seem that there are many Korean establishments in the area, so if you are looking for a place around here, this spot may be your best bet.

Ive been to Koja a few times now for lunch for both Korean dishes and sushi. Everything Ive had there so far has been excellent. Its been a few years since Ive had easy access to good Korean food, but this is right up there with the best places I remember. You cant really go wrong with bibimbap, but other things are worth trying too. As for the sushi, there is a greater emphasis on cooked rolls (and mayo) than most places Ive been, but what you get is great. I have yet to try their BBQ but I will definitely be back for it. The staff are always very friendly. Wait staff are happy to walk you through the menu if you are unfamiliar. Please consider trying their recommendations if this is all new to you.

This place does not even deserve one star! The food was no more than ok. The prices are absolutely ridiculous, and Do not justify the quality of the meal, portion size, or overall environment you receive!!! I cant see anyone ever going back to this place! They really need to fix everything about this place. Ive had way better food come from the Chinese Buffett. The building itself is a crapy run down diner on the inside. I know Korean food and I roll sushi, I am just blown away at how embarrassing this place is. I spent 30 dollars on one meal and left hungry and beyond not impressed. I never leave reviews on places but with this experience I felt obligated to warn people. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

The category listed for Koja is Japanese, yet it is Korean. How can you tell? Ask to be seated in the back of the restaurant at a table instead of a booth in the front. In most of the tables are embedded electric grills where diners (or their servers) can cook their own meat. This is unusual for the Lehigh Valley but very common in other places with large Korean populations. And here, the little bowls of side dishes are not brought to the table but are self-serve from a cart. Two meats will probably serve two people for about $40. Its BYOB.

I usually went philly to eat korean foods. And we found this place by google search, and we suprised about price. I read all the reviews but I dont understand how people said this place is "pricy". Compare to berger king, it is expencive. However compare to other korean restaurants, it is so CHEAP!!!!! and the salad bar is awsome!!! otehr korean places always have limits of side dishes but they dont!! Also foods were great too! I swear god. THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! THANK YOU!

I very much enjoyed my experience at this Korean restaurant and I loved the food a lot. I would especially like to thank my waiter and server 정호 (Austin) because he was so polite to me and my mother who had never tried Korean food before and he was so sweet to us. He even gave us training chopsticks to use because we didnt know how to use chopsticks! It was definitely a fun experience. 고맙습니다.

Wasnt very good and a bit too pricey. There were no prices on the website so when I went to pick it up I ended up paying way more then I thought I would be. I ordered the shrimp fried rice which had no flavor what so ever. the shrimp fried rice also had small cheap shrimp that didnt taste right. Wouldnt recommend going here.
