Kojaba is my favorite restaurant in Columbia. Everything I've had there has been perfectly made and tastes delicious. Their menu offers a wide variety, each item made very well. Despite their wide variety and impressive cooking, they always find a way to get the food out quickly. I honestly feel that this restaurant is a hidden gem in Columbia that everyone should try.

We drove an hour and a half from Monroe City MO and were not disappointed. Great food and great service!

Kojaba definitely isn't bad -- it's one of the best (and unfortunately only) options for Korean food in Columbia. Their service is really efficient and quick (it only takes about 10-15 minutes to get your food after you order), but the staff can be pretty rude. Their menu has a selection of both Americanized and traditional options, but, unfortunately, the qualities of both were fairly lackluster. All of their fish dishes were overcooked and incredibly tough to chew, particularly the smoked eel and the fish in their soups. Their raw vegetables were not fresh at all and their noodles felt like they had been sitting out for hours (the texture had become gummy and almost rubbery). Perhaps the most disappointing part was the kimchi -- I've never been to a Korean establishment that can't properly make this classic side dish! The kimchi wasn't given enough time to develop and absolutely no fermentation had occurred yet -- it was just raw, slightly spicy napa cabbage that was severely lacking in flavor and texture. And, considering the quality of the food and the portions that we received, everything was definitely overpriced. I'll probably still come here again because there's really no other options for Korean food in this area, but I still find Kojaba a bit disappointing.

I have have been to many Korean restuarants but Kojaba has the most authentic Korean meals. The chefs are Korean and much appreciated because they really know how to make the real thing with good flavor.

My first time going to a place like this and I was not disappointed! The service was a little slow at times but I think it was mostly because they were so busy. The food though, was amazing!
