I work upstairs and this location has seen many businesses come and go. Lucky burger then a Philly cheesesteak shop etc etc BUT finally it's a healthier option. I'm Korean and this food isn't authentic but it's not trying to be, it's a new modern take. I wish they had a $10 dollar lunch special or something like that because it does get a little pricey (I get the prices...they need to cover the high rent and overhead costs) but if it was a few bucks less I would probably eat here more. Given the choices in the area for healthy food, this is a solid place but don't go thinking you'll get fort Lee/ pal park/flushing level Korean food. This is Westernized Korean food. I wish this business luck and hope they do well, so go visit! read more

Sucks because I wanted to like Gogi Grill. I've actually ordered from here in the past, but yesterday's food was all of the following: - stale (the lime and cilantro sauce) - bland - dry... I mean rice and pieces of meat and dry kimchi. Like I could have been chewing on a microwaved dish. Anyone who's tried legit Korean fast food (if I can call it that) e.g. Koreana in university city or Olive bbq in Korea town nyc, knows what flavorful food tastes like. Gogi you ruined my dinner so badly I ordered in bbq from house of Que. Oh well. read more

I really like this place and the food is fantastic every time I order. The one thing that irked me tonight was that the vegetable dumplings had pork in it. No mention of that on the menu AT ALL. Luckily, I had the first bite and not my vegetarian partner. While the dumplings ended up being delicious, you should really note if a vegetable dumpling has meat in it. **EDIT/UPDATE** I ordered through Caviar, which did not mention the pork in the veggie dumplings but I do see it mentioned on the menu listed on Yelp. read more

Best fast casual in hoboken. Fresh veggies and high quality ingredients. Lots of choices. Like a Korean fresher better version of Chipotle.

Solid Korean food! I have gone here a few times and walked in to order. Each time I've gotten a different bowl and enjoyed the food, especially the jap chae. If you like spicy food, their kimchi is also good. read more

Had dinner here with some friends, the food was great and portions were large. I had soy garlic wings, very tender and flavorful. I tried some of my friend's bulgogi bowl as well, it was very fresh and savory. Lastly I had a strawberry matcha bubble tea which was sweet and refreshing, a good desert to end with. read more

I love this place, it's crazy addicting! I almost wish it wasn't so conveniently located next to the Path. I did the Um, Because Bacon Bowl-it's got all the K-BBQ necessities: pickled everything, kimchi, and a cilantro lime sauce with the perfect kick! Try it-you won't be sorry! read more

I ordered plenty of times from here to find out that they decided to change the quality of the Galbi meat. It is extremely upsetting when the Galbi is dry and looks like they scraped together what they can to just send the order. Just take a look at the picture and tell me if it's edible. No. I won't be ordering from here and it is extremely disappointing since their sides is very good. read more

Ambiance - 4/5 Taste - 4.5/5 Price - 4/5 Hospitality - 4/5 Quantity - 4.5/5 Fresh ingredients, well mixed, simple combinations and very flavorful. Fast service. Overall a wonderful lunch option. I am yet to try their ice cream rolls. read more

Shot summary: Great place, great service, phenomenal food! Details: Stopped by on a rainy afternoon (cause the line is usually out the door at lunchtime). Decor is simple yet trendy and the feel of the place is down to earth and welcoming. The service was impeccable and they took a lot of care when crafting my tacos which were really good (coming from a Korean who has had a lot of Korean BBQ from a mom who makes it from scratch). I just finished my tacos and will be walking out with a burrito in hand. Now about that liquor license...hehe read more

There is already a very limited option when it comes to Korean food in Hoboken; so beggars can't be chooser. But for a tiny grab and go joint; it is not all that bad. The portion size is generous and you can add additional toppings into your bowl (like a fried egg!) I think it should default come with; so slightly sad I have to pay extra for it; since that is one of the main ingredients of the bibimbap dish! Also got the fried mandoo (dumplings) but not too impress there; just stick with the bowl (I recommend the bulgogi) and they have a respectable kimchi. Not the worst thing I've eaten but hop on the train (it across the street) and go into Manhattan for some mind-blowing Korean cuisine. read more

The Korean BBQ version of Chipotle, in a very good way. Came here and was super satisfied with my bulgogi beef create-your-own bowl for the very reasonable grand total of $11.96. The bowl comes with 4 toppings and is BIG in terms of portions. Would definitely come again! Wish they had this back in South Florida or California. read more

Huge fan of Korean BBQ when done right, but this place unfortunately didn't deliver. Usually suspects of rice, kimchi, carrots and cucumber all were okay, but for an additional $3 they charge for short rib, it was dry and flavorless (as if left out allday). Very disappointing, will not be back! read more

This place looks very unsuspecting from the outside, but the food is awesome! I've been to a similar spot when I went to Rutgers in New Brunswick and this place is much better. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the sauces are amazing. I liked that there are numerous choices of protein, toppings and sauces so that you can customize your meal and try a new combination every time you come. The portions are also a great bang for your buck and guaranteed to have you feeling stuffed when you leave. read more

Worst delivery experience ever!!! Waited for more than 2 hours to get my delivery. They first forgot my order, then went to the wrong place!!! I checked once after waiting for one hour, they told me to wait for 10 more minutes, then I waited for 1 more hour to get their call. Then my dad waited for 15 minutes in the lobby getting nothing because they sent to the wrong place. And when I opened it, the beef bowl with kimchi fried rice didn't have any beef!!!!! And it was white rice instead of fried rice!!!!!!! I think you should refund me and you owe me a huge apology! read more

I'd like to compare this place to a 'Korean Chipotle'. People can pick up protein and vegetables as they want. I ordered salad with shrimp and chose four toppings. It's healthy and they gave fair amount of food. But the Kimchi tasted like normal cabbage and they wouldn't provide tap water. read more

This was my first time visiting after hearing great reviews. I got the purple rice with beef, corn, onions, bean sprouts and one other thing that is slipping my mind. The place is cute and has outside seating which was great for the weather. The food was pretty good, I made my oven bowl but next time I think I'll go for one of the dignitaries bowls! I would recommend this place for sure the serving portions are so large! It's easily two meals. I'll definitely be back! read more

Pretty much anytime we go to Hoboken it's a requirement to stop at Gogi. I'm not an expert in Korean food at all, I just like good food. Staff is always friendly and my kids love it, I only wish it was closer. read more

Horrible! Completely inedible. I ordered the bulgogi with white rice and pork dumplings. The few bites I could stomach tasted like moth balls. I threw all of my dinner into the trash. Unbelievable. What a tremendous waste of my money. Never again. I wish I could give this place zero stars. Do yourself a favor and never order from here unless you want a case of severe food poisoning. I hope I will be okay. Update: UberEats refunded 100% of my meal after I shared a picture of the horrible presentation and sloppy, unsanitary, flimsy packaging. I am already experiencing painful stomach cramps. read more

This place is truly a hidden gem and should be on the main streets of hoboken. It was so good i tried the purple rice with spicy chicken, corn, lettuce,carrots, and onions which was so good. I got the cilantro sauce and ugh next time I'll definitely pay for extra because it truly was delicious! I'll definitely go back for another bowl and I'm happy to see they deliver! Also the staff is very welcoming and kind which is always a plus! read more

I wouldn't call it the most authentic Korean food in the world but if you are craving something Korean and casual, it's not a bad choice. I wish it's a little bigger option and more veggies but that's just my preference when it comes to Korean food. read more

This place is the bee's kneeeees. I am always excited about new, asian restaurants in Hoboken because I feel like there's a lack of good asian restaurants in the area, so when I heard about this place from a friend, I had to check it out. This fast casual spot is close to the Hoboken PATH with ample seating inside. Similar to Chipotle, they build bowls and burritos in an assembly type system so servive goes by pretty quickly. 1) Your order either a bowl, burrito or salad 2) You pick your starch, your protein, and your toppings (up to 4) There are at least four options for each category so the combinations are endless. They have scallion pancakes for order as well. I ordered the bowl, with sweet potato vermicelli, shortrib, kimchi, cucumber, sprouts, and spicy slaw, with the spicy Korean red pepper sauce on the side. And it was everything I expected it to be. The key for Korean food is freshness, and, as someone who is Korean, I felt that the food was not only fresh, but also authentic. The combinations can also range vastly on what you're feeling that day because they have so many options - although my choices veered towards more pickled vegetables and fresh flavors, my boyfriend ordered a heavier meal with korean fried rice, spicy korean bacon as his starch and protein. The food here exceeded my expectations and I am always recommending it to my friends in the area. It can be a little intimidating at first with some of the more traditional options, but it is totally worth it!! Will be coming back over and over again! read more

I normally go here after work to grab dinner. Today I came in and ordered my regular bowel with extra short ribs A Tall Hispanic guy greeted me after waiting and when asked what protein. I wanted I said "short ribs with extra meat" . He then continued to scoop scraps of meat and crumbs of the meat from bottom the container in my bowel . When I questioned him and told him I don't want crumbs of the meat and if he can get me some fresh short ribs . He said it's going to take to long to make it and I can't wait . So I should order something else. He should have informed me he didn't have enough meat to even serve one serving. I don't understand was he going serve me crumbs and charge me ? Such incompetent people with horrible customer service . read more

Ordered a beef bulgogi bowl and my partner ordered a chicken bowl. There were so many amazing options, even for a picky eater like myself. I love kimchi so I ended up with a spicier variation, and my partner got teriyaki sauce so his food was a little sweeter. The purple rice wasn't bad, but I'd like to tried kimchi fried rice next time. Overall a great experience! We didn't finish everything so it was warmed up the next day -- still tasted very good after microwaving. Another bonus is that it shares the building space with an ice cream shop so we got some right after eating lunch. read more

I came here during lunch time with my coworker and the food was really good! I had the spicy chicken tacos and loved them! Also their green cilantro lime sauce is awesome! The girl who helped me was also very friendly so I definitely will go back again. read more

I went there with an open mind bc dont really eat Korean food but it was really good. I wish they had a smaller bowl option. The bowl is a large portion and very filling. I chose spicy chicken, kimchi, cucumbers, spicy slaw, and hot peppers. It was overall good food and the staff was very friendly. read more

Good place for lunch. Serves bowls where you pick starch, protein and four veggie sides. The glass noodles are really good. They are very friendly and serve fast. The bowls are big and usually I can't finish to food. The only negative is they do not have cups for water. Really strange. You either have to bring water or buy a drink. read more

The food is great and the portions are hefty. My boyfriend and I used to love ordering from Gogi Grill a while ago. Some time ago, we went through a phase of getting it weekly, however, we started having issues with the delivery of it. Something was always missing--whether it be an add on sauce that we paid extra for or a topping. This turned us off from ordering for a while because we'd pay extra for these things and would not receive them the majority of the time. A couple weeks back, we placed a delivery order and were reminded of why we loved Gogi Grill so much. All was good. We then ordered again and unfortunately, the extra sauce we ordered was missing. We were hopeful and tried again last week and this time a sauce and our favorite topping was missing. I decided to write this review because I'd love to order from Gogi Grill more consecutively, but the deliver service of it is so inconsistent that it turns me off. I never know if my order will be fully correct or if something will be missing. I end up grumpily eating a dried/sauce-less chicken bowl or missing my beloved noodles! It is quite frustrating when it happens often! Gogi Grill, please fix this!! I love your bowls and would love to order delivery from you more often! Edit: I ordered delivery yesterday and was hopeful my order would be fine. This time, I got sent the wrong order and was not able to get my food. The restaurant tried fixing the issue, they let me keep the wrong order, Grubhub refunded me, but I wasn't able to reorder because the restaurant closed at 9PM. It looks like I'll be staying away from Gogi Grill again. read more

Nice quick spot to grab some Korean food to go. You pick your base, protein, and up to 4 sides as well as the sauce. I'm not a big fan of spicy food, and even though their green sauce is medium spicy, it's really good. I think it was the best part of the meal! The food itself without the sauce was good but a little bland. I had the white rice with chicken, corn, bean sprouts, carrots, and spinach. I may stop by for a quick meal again but I think there are other places that do Korean food better. read more

Food was delicious! My boyfriend and I really enjoy Korean BBQ. We usually get it from a location in Jersey City, but they don't deliver to where we live! So we decided on ordering from this place. My boyfriend isn't a big fan of the Kimichi from the place in Jersey City, so he was hesitant to try the Kimichi from Gogi. He loved it! He was talking it up the next day. We ordered the Kitchen Sink dish. It was enough for both of us. My only complaint was that the bacon has too much fat on it. We also tried the food with all the sauces that they sent us. The sauces were great. We were really impressed. Definitely recommend! read more

I was surprised that their bowl changed since last time I ordered for delivery. It seemed bigger and the portion definitely got larger. However the meat to rice ratio is still the same as last time--not enough. For the amount they gave me for my bowl, I was able to make it into two meals--lunch & dinner! read more

Hidden spot only found because of yelp ;) the seasoning and flavors were very tame compared to Korean standards but the menu is simple enough and the flavors are well balanced. The staff is friendly and it's a great spot for lunch or you take it to the park down the street. For quick bite this is great. Best part? Kimchi actually tastes authentic. read more

This place is rationing so badly! For $11 a bowl the 4 sides they give is so skimpy.... not sure why they are serving food if they don't want to let go of it! It's extremely unwelcoming and makes you think many times before coming here. Happened two times previously but this time after having my bowl I am looking in my fridge for more food :( you will get more for your money elsewhere. read more

Basically Chipotle but Korean style, and it was fantastic! Highly recommend the bean sprouts, sautéed onions, fresh jalapeños, the spicy red sauce, and the spicy cilantro sauce, but the fried egg for an extra buck is what pulled it all together. Will definitely be back! read more

Overall a very enjoyable experience, some areas for improvement but nothing that's a show stopper. Gogi is the pick your own meets Korean food for those who aren't familiar with their concept. I came Sunday and it was very chill, probably because it's not on Washington and the office crowd wasn't in. The overall menu set up was confusing, typically whenever I go you start off telling them the base and then the protein, their menu was set up with protein first even though the crew will ask you what base you want. After the slight confusion, highly recommend their management change this, we were back in business. I had the potato vermicelli and bacon with a few veggie toppings. My favorite were the watercress and radish, I love an added crunch factor. There's a variety of sauces to choose from so if you have a chance try a few and see which ones you like. Flavors were on point and serving size was just enough. It's pricier than chipotle but hey treat yourself. read more

Average Korean food close to the Path stop. We stopped by on a week day night to pick up dinner. It was not very clear how the bowls worked (you're limited to 4 toppings), and the server had a bad attitude when we asked questions. The bulgogi ($11) was flavorful but wish they gave more meat, and the egg was $1 extra. Get the Forkcast app to get 10% off your order. The restaurant had some seating inside and a few seats outdoors, but there was a lot of foot traffic from the Path so may not be for everyone. There was also a small shop in the corner of the store that offered rolled ice cream. read more

The food was pretty good. Its not GREAT Korean food, but it does the job.

If Chipotle had a Korean cousin, this would be it. The portion size for the bowl is large and the prices are reasonable. The only downfall is that this place doesn't turn on their AC, which can make dining in slightly less than comfortable. read more
