Gaboja I think is trying to serve Korean BBQ "home style" without the premium or luxury tax. It supposed to bring out taste over anything else - ambience, silverware, and perhaps even cleanliness? You enter Gaboja and start to feel like whether this is a 70s sort of sweatshop with cubicles or a cocktail bar, dark and sticky air. But again, all of this is forgivable if you can taste home style Korean comfort food and meat right? There are many dishes that live up to this promise. The Kimchee Pancake was phenomenal - one of the best in the Bay Area. The banchans were also quite good, as well as other side dishes like corn-cheese. So then why the 3-stars? Well... it is a BBQ shop after all right? The meat simply wasn't high quality enough. I understand the desire the cut cost but a Korean BBQ's lifeline is the quality and the fattiness of the meat. Our ribeye was just so stuffy. Also, given most meat come out unmarinated, the salt and sauce on the side must help the balance but unfortunately, they use this really coarse salt and it is very difficult to spread the saltiness evenly. On the bright side, the service was friendly and the lady gave us some extras. If someone suggests Gaboja for a Korean BBQ dinner out, I'd probably hesitate. If it was for a quick hearty meal with a friend that I didn't need to impress, perhaps I'd okay it once in a while. Parking: Free parking lot in the strip mall but fills up very quickly. This mall is notorious for having less parking spots compared to the shops it provides. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Kimchi Pancake, Korean Barbecue Parking space: Somewhat difficult to find parking Parking options: Free of charge parking lot

Not one of my favorite place to eat at. But occasionally I have to go because some of my friends lime this place. I acknowledge the fact thay me and my friends can have different taste in food and atmosphere. But, it doesn't mean I understand them. Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2
