Well this is a sad post to write... I just read that Cobra is closing in about 10 days. I recently visited cobra with two of my friends from out of town. We originally booked dinner and a karaoke room, but we ended up just doing the karaoke. We arrived on time and were taken to our private room. The employee was having technical difficulties but finally got everything working after 5-10 minutes. We asked about drinks and were told that someone would come in to check on us and take our drink orders. The karaoke room reservations are only for an hour so we got right into it! About 20 minutes into our session, no one had come in to take our drink orders. I decided to go out to the bar and order them myself. That took a little while so I was sad to have missed that time in the karaoke room. Our session ended right at the top of the hour, which is fine. However, the difficulties weren't factored in. No one did ever come in to check on us or take our drink order the whole time we were in there. Lastly, we had to figure out how to pay for the room. I asked a couple of people and was told to go to the bar bit the bartender couldn't find my reservation. He finally did and we paid and left. I love cobra and will try to visit for dinner one last time. However, the service this most recent time left some room to be desired. read more

We loved Cobra! Looking forward to going back one of these days. I love the vibe there. It's very dark, which is perfect for me. It got a bit loud after a while, but the atmosphere is great. I'm a big fan of places where you can cook your own meat & seafood. It's always perfectly cooked and warm. While the meat was amazing, my favorite part of the meal was the shrimp. The service was friendly and excellent. Our waitress explained all the options very well, since most of us had never been there. I recommend going with a pretty big group. Then, you can try everything. The all you can eat menu is a great option too. It's only available a couple nights a week, so check the website. read more

Good place to dine for special occasion! I absolutely loved the matcha tres leches cakes, it was so delicious so if you go, make sure you try this one! Fried chicken wings also good! Can't go wrong with whatever meat you get. Service was pretty decent, nothing out of this world but it wasn't bad. Not sure about returning necessarily but it was a good experience. read more

We had a great dinner with friends on Saturday celebrating Valentine's Day. We sat at a grill table and had reservations. We ordered the rangoon and wings as appetizers. I really loved both! My husband and I orders for dinner shrimp, bulgogi, and asparagus. My favorite by far was the shrimp. I also love the sauce, rice, and additional items they bring to the table for the grill. I left totally full but not stuffed...which is always wonderful! We would love to go back and sit at a normal table and get some of the different dinner options. read more

The food was excellent quality i was genuinely impressed! Before going i didn't think it would be worth it, but the quality of meats they have make it 100% worth your time and money! The drinks were also fantastic - highly recommend the Suki if you like something sweet. Waiter was great and he explained everything well since it was our first time. Vibes were perfect for a group dinner - there was 6 of us and it was a great time! read more

The BEST spot for a celebration. I highly recommend booking a karaoke room! It's so easy to book online, definitely book ahead of time as these rooms are popular on the weekends! We had our own server that delivered drinks to the karaoke room, and it was awesome that we didn't have to leave the room to get drinks at the bar. The fun never takes a break while you're here! I cannot wait to spend another night celebrating here and try their food! Everything looked and smelled amazing, and food can be ordered in the karaoke rooms as well! read more

Cobra - Korean Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

We checked out All You Care to Eat at Cobra yesterday evening - something that they have for $48 every Wednesday! We made a reservation a while ago but there were plenty of tables open when we went. How it works is that everyone at the table must do the AYCTE option. Everyone receives 4 oz of each beef cut (butcher's cut chuck-eye yesterday) and marinade cut (miso shrimp and pork shoulder galbi yesterday) to start with and after finishing the first round and all your meat is cooked, you can order another round of one item each. You can continue to reorder more rounds after you finished the previous round until your 90 minutes is up. The four of us were able to finish the initial round of beef, pork shoulder, and shrimp and order three more rounds of one of the previous items in our time slot! I was a little afraid that the food was not going to be good since it's meant to be an Asian establishment owned by white people. The meat was tasty and so were the mushrooms and banchan. I do wish there was more variety in meat. I think it's a little pricey for the small portions and time limit but worth a try since it's fun. Drinks were pricey but good. The ambiance is very clubby and dark with no windows. They were blasting Ariana Grande the whole time. If your vibe is not dark, loud, and clubby, you may not like Cobra. I'm not sure I would go back anytime soon since there's supposed to be KBBQ places opening up in Pittsburgh that are more authentic but I am glad that I tried it. read more

The Good: Excellent flavors. We did miso shrimp and Galbi beef for our grill and both were excellent. We split the scallop special for the night that was one of the best presentations of scallops I've ever had. Korean cheese corn was divine. We shared the bread pudding and absolutely everything was excellent. The Less Good: Service was....lacking. We ordered the corn...can we please have something besides chopsticks to eat it with? Had to wave her down for everything. She only checked back once on her own accord during our 2 hour dinner. Two warm bottles of water on the table when we arrived that were neither refilled (see below and notes on how hot it was) nor was there any ice available. We had to flag down the server for refills of drinks (ice tea) they were not proactively offered. It was HOT around the tables. I know...you grill on the table but the AC needed to crank if that's the case and it simply didn't. It made for an uncomfortable seating situation. Not quite sweaty, but very close. read more

I like the concept of the place. Night club vibes but yakiniku restaurant. Service is super nice, and they've gotten a lot better with timing since opening. I used to have to wait for a table despite a reservation and wait a while for the food, but not so for the more recent times I've been. I'm only giving it 3 stars because I think it is way too overpriced. I keep going back because I crave yakiniku and there aren't other places around. But the portions are insanely small, leaving even me who doesn't really eat feeling hungry after a meal. I literally rely on the [Japchae] for filling my stomach. That's the only appetizer/ side dish I'd recommend. The others are too small and too expensive for what it's worth. Dessert is pretty good though. I think for the same price elsewhere you'd get a lot better yakiniku experience with better meat and portion sizes. The vibes and price for upscale yakiniku but the food isn't there yet. read more

This was my second time at cobra! We got the all you can eat. It is a little more expensive that other all you can eat kbbq but it all tasted really good. I do wish there were a little more meat options and sides. Service was good and ambiance is pretty dark inside. I thought it is interesting they have gender neutral bathrooms but it is not a single stall. read more

Our food was great, we loved the experience of cooking on a bbq grill and the atmosphere was AMAZING but our service was subpar at best. Our server didn't check in on us and left a sour taste in our mouths. When we flagged her down to ask for additional banchan (since there were 5 of us at the table and only enough to make a few wraps at most) we only received additional lettuce, nothing else. That's only where the issues started.... The prices we received on our check were not reflective of what we were told & ultimately, our server was uneducated on the menu and pricing. I understand the reasoning behind an automatic gratuity, but it definitely wasn't earned in this case. Overall, I believe if we had a different server, we would've had a much better experience. read more

Cobra - Omakase 1 - Korean Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I've never heard of Cobra until a friend invited to take me for my birthday last week. It's tucked away on a small street in Bloomfield, I want to say parking seems a barrier but we used uber. I like the dim lighting and the seating in booths are very roomy, kind space between other tables and feels more private. I'd compare this to the style of cooking at the table similar to korean bbq but a little different (prefer korean bbq and larger portions of meat). We had the bulgogi, prawn (comes with 3) and the tokujo tongue with sides of mushrooms and asparagus. We also had the caviar for appetizer. Additionally had two cocktails. We did order the wagyu but they never gave it to us, guess they forgot but we didn't mention again. My opinion for our visit is that: the servers and all of the staff were so lovely, attentive, kind and helpful. The service was excellent and it was a nice atmosphere. Now the food: I did not like the prawn it had too much flavoring and maybe sour to me, hard to explain but it was odd. The caviar came with all of the toppings to try and small pancake things - it was my first time having it and seemed like jelly but nothing special. The tongue only my friend had but he seemed to like it. The bulgogi and asparagus were the only things I liked aside from the cotton candy cocktail. Bulgogi is delicious but not enough of it due to not much else I enjoyed. The mushrooms weren't the best to me but ok. The waiter gave me a shot of sake for my birthday. I give 4 stars due to awesome service and wonderful night despite not having the best food experience. I do love the presentation however. I hope to try the karaoke rooms one day. read more

Cobra - Oysters and Sangria - Korean Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

For $270, for two people, we got about ten ounces of meat, two mid alcoholic beverages, mushrooms we didn't like, an okay but not good appetizer, mood inappropriate music, and an inattentive service who didn't seem to want to deal with us, couldn't remember to bring a fork, disappeared for long stretches. If I wanted that type of dining experience I could have spent $60 and went to TGI Fridays. Gyu Kaku in Philly is a similar type of dining expeirence that is lower cost, higher quality, more attentive servers, more appropriate music, and better value. If you want the experience of this type of dining, take the road trip to Philly versus spending your money here. Edit: The manager reached out a week ago to say this. Unfortunately, the GM then never responded back after their initial email. So, yea, I guess their average experience isn't all that concerning to them. (Sent 2/21/24)9 Hi Steve, I am equally disappointed with your experience here at COBRA as you are. It is simply not what you should expect from us. Given you took time out of your day to provide feedback, it gives me hope there is a chance to win you back and make this right. Steve, it's important to me that you know that hospitality and making my guests happy is what keeps me going, and I do not take negative feedback lightly. Please allow me some time to regroup with my team to further look into your experience. Thank you for sharing with us, Collin McNamee, General Manager read more

Overall we had a very nice experience. The fries were perfectly cooked and I loved the sesame mayo served with it. We opted for the Omakase that came with waygu beef ! It also came with a marinated beef (not pictured) that was not enjoyable. It was extremely tough to chew. Our server was attentive and checked on us quite often. The restaurant itself is very dark and the music is louder than I would have liked. read more

Love this restaurant! This was a very good experience. A great restaurant for Valentine's day with my man. We were seated immediately. The waitress was really nice and explained the menu to is, answered all of our questions and gave us recommendations. We ordered: Oysters--PHENOMENAL. BBQ--Fantastic. Fries--SOO GOOD. The sauce was great too! Dessert--Great experience. Not a fan of shaved ice but was still enjoyable! The food was fresh and delicious. Very good quality Staff were so friendly and quick.

Awesome dining experience! Cobra is a Japanese/Korean BBQ spot with a glowing bar and nightclub/karaoke bar in a very unassuming spot on the corner of Main Street/Liberty Ave near Lawrenceville. We went all out and got the Omakase II offering, which is the pricier option, but you get the better meat selections offered. The A5 Wagyu is what you're here for, outside of the experience. A selection of bonchon are offered prior to the meal itself, which are little dishes of pickled veggies and kimchi (the umami greens and radish were awesome). The BBQ was so much fun and very flavorful, with the wagyu being the obvious favorite. In the end, I found the omakase to be plenty of food for me! The restaurant/bar is decorated to theme - dark and moody. I loved the dark atmosphere, which offers a perfect transition to the bar and nightclub/karaoke area. The drink options are great; I enjoyed the Soju offering which was refreshing. Overall, the experience is certainly on the pricier side but most likely justified by the pure opportunity to taste A5 wagyu. Definitely worth a visit, whether you're looking for unique Korean flavors of the pre-made kitchen items or BBQ, this place offers a fun dining experience. Would recommend trying this place out, especially for a fun night out with friends! read more

This is by far the worst place my boyfriend and I have ever been to. We are both from Maryland which has an abundance of asian inspired BBQ. My boyfriend and I are both servers at a KBBQ place so we understand how the kitchen works especially in a place like this. We went to celebrate our anniversary together and I made a reservation at 9:30pm (the place closes at 11:00pm). When we walked inside, there were servers and hosts chatting ignoring us and as we went further into the restaurant chairs were already stacked?? Again, I understood that because I too work in the industry. Last call was at 10:00pm which was wild in my opinion since your last seating is at 9:30pm, only giving the table 30 minutes to order everything. We also cooked everything ourselves. The server didn't touch the grill once. Which was fine but what about those who have absolutely no experience? Our server was rude and rushed. He only came to our table once and it took over 30 mins to get a fountain drink refill. The food was honestly horrible. It was old and dull with essentially no flavor whats so ever and you could tell the Ban chan had been sitting in its container for an incredibly long time. We paid around $200 for this dinner. The quality of the meats did not live up to the price. All in all, we walked out disappointed, hungry, and upset. read more

Their food is amazing! My server was amazing! Ambience off the hook. The only issue is that I had left my ID there, went back an Hour or so later during their club hours. The pretty, short host with dark long hair and pretty brown eyes was kind of a jerk, turning me away because of the ID and not letting me explain that I had left it there even tho she admitted to recognizing me. Disregarding the host issue, I'd recommend this place. read more

Was entertained! Get ready to cook and spend some serious dough here for Korean BBQ. ‍ We originally had reservations to another place but, it was too small to accommodate our large party of 8. We called Cobra after we saw postings of cool places in our area to check out in a foodie group. We got to Cobra for our reservations and had a slight wait. We parked on the street. *Decor Was very inviting, cool, dark and hip. Bar was located in the front and we hear they also have Karaoke rooms. *Bathrooms One guest noticed the Gender friendly bathrooms after making a quick stop in while we waited and freaked out when the teen girl of the group went to use the bathroom by herself. Not knowing what the fuss was about, I went to check it out and noticed the bathrooms located down a long pink hallway. Upon entering, there is no lock on the main bathroom door but latch locks on the 2 stalls inside. The issue he had was that there was an open urinal next to the stalls across from the sink. Please add a lock on the main door of the bathroom and/or a stall for the urinal. I do not want to see a man using the urinal when I come in or while I'm washing my hands. Things like that can get a little complicated I would imagine especially after drinks. *Seating For our reservation, we thought we would be sitting all together only to find out we were reserved for 2 different booths. They were right next to one another so we worked it out and were happy they accommodated our large party. Menu The menu is a little tricky but know if one selects a Korean bbq option, everyone else wanting Korean BBQ to be cooked by guests table side will all have to get the same thing. My guests chose the one with Wagu of course for $70+. Chicken wings were fire though and the highlight of the menu. One guest got 2 different meals since she did not eat beef. Serving size of both meals totaled one complete dinner. Drinks Oh and the drinks. They have really, really neat drinks. The one with the Cotton Candy drink for 13.00 was the hit for our party. Only issue is that the cotton candy costs $5.00 on top of the drink cost. One of my guests kept ordering the drinks for the Cotton Candy only to be told by a member of the party of the fee. *Check When we asked to slit the checks by guests, she told us we could only split the checks 2 ways. One check was for $474.98 with the automatic 20% gratuity and the other was for $ 421.54 with another 20% gratuity. We have had Korean BBQ in other states but pricing Fathers Day experience was cool and different. read more

Where do I start? I suppose a preface. Being born and raised around the NYC/Manhattan area these type of restaurants/clubs are commonplace. So seeing this as a recommendation from Yelp! and seeing numerous positive social media reviews i figured i'd have to give it a try. Please take note that currently they are on a very limited menu and that Thursday Nights are their "Burger Special" nights. The reason this review got a "Meh" 3 Star review instead of a 2 was because of said "Burger Special" pricing. $20 total for their Cobra Wagyu Burger, Furikake Fries, & can of Sapporo Pure beer (normally priced $26... so the beer is free... and kaboom there is the extra half star to this review). Now that that's out of the way let's dig deeper here! First and foremost we need to get to the staff. The hostess greeted us promptly and sat us at our "Reserved" table (that can be easily attained through their Instagram page). Why they recommend reservations on a Thursday Night is a little beyond me as we were the only other couple in the lounge & bar table/seating area. But again sat promptly. Our server was apparently busy so our drink & food order was taken delayed and by a separate gentleman. Fine by me but again there was no one there and it was seen numerous times that group work conversations were a little more important than anyone dining there. Didn't knock a star off for this as i'm happy they were staffed and open for seated business. Now lets get to the food. Just. Wow? 4.5 stars with over 100+ reviews as of 1.11.23? That's wild to me. Again this review is based on their bar/lounge table seating & limited menu and has nothing to do with their entertainment options or Korean BBQ seating/menu. But i honestly have to give this venue the Webster's definition of "Bland". Sure it reads fancy on the menu and the pricing reflects that as well... but in my honest seasoned opinion it falls flat fast. Wagyu Burger. Those that know the delicacy of Wagyu know that nothing "Extra" is really needed. Well this burger is not only given "Smashed" but the cheese alone fights with the delicate flavor. I will say that the bun is absolutely amazing and ultra savory. They could have just made a grilled cheese with that and i'd add another star here. But the complexity gets totally lost and the description just adds to the price tag. Furikake Fries were undercooked. Seasoned OK and the lack of salt was actually appreciated. But if ordered separately at $7 there is no reason for it. Cobra Aioli was a highlight being tasty but condiments shouldn't be the highlight here. Sapporo Beer is like any other 4% "Light" beer out there but appreciated being "Free". The second downfall to the food was the other dishes that were ordered. We requested the Cucumber Salad as an appetizer and Japache as second entree. I suppose i'd like to add a positive here as the presentation of EVERYTHING was AMAZING... but that shouldn't justify the pricing. The Cucumber Salad was again... bland. It's a cucumber spiral cut with a VERY bland sauce. I drank the sauce alone to try to get a real taste but was pretty disappointed. At $10 i wouldn't order again. The Japache was basically the same. Excellent presentation but nothing that gave it a distinct "I need to come back here for this" taste (this was honestly my review in a nutshell for all dishes served). Again real shame as the art to the food was simply fantastic but the lack of real flavor was disappointing. I'll tread lightly on the next topic as it's fairly new. But there are gender neutral bathrooms here with no other option. I'm 110% OK with that. But 1 bathroom has a SPECIFIC sign stating that it's gender neutral AND has a urinal in it (the other does not as observed). As using said urinal a woman came out from one of the door'd stalls and stared at me (good 10+ seconds). How do I know this? The materials used on the bathroom walls are EXTREMELY reflective and one can see behind themselves (and every other angle when standing up). Not knocking a star for this but just a forewarning for those that utilize that first bathroom. In closing this restaurant is indeed hip and has extreme entertainment value notes. Karaoke booths were packed and lots of singing was heard through closed doors. Dance Floor looks like with a live DJ could be a ton of fun. Korean BBQ tables live and from socials look like a no brainer if you'd like to entertain on a NYC level. TL;DR Cobra indeed does have a "Big City Vibe" class/ring to it. I'd come again for entertainment purposes. So karaoke, dancing/night life, and/or Korean BBQ. Outside of that bubble though it's an easy pass. Lots of hype around the socials that isn't really backed up. read more

Is the food and atmosphere good? Yes! I had waygu fried rice and it was okay. It's not the best Korean BBQ I've been to but it's probably the best in the Burgh. My first experience with Korean BBQ was in Texas and my second was in New Orleans. I like the venue and the food. I've been a few times and I can't complain. It's just missing something that I have yet to figure out. read more

This is a really cool place! The space is kind of divided into 3 sections- a bar, BBQ table room, and a lounge. We went on a Saturday night for dinner so we sat at one of the BBQ tables, which was really cool. We ordered the cheesy rice cakes appetizer, which was delicious. Highly recommend. We also had the set menu that's priced per person with a variety of cuts of beef. It comes out raw and you cook it yourself with the BBQ grill on the table. It also comes with all of the accoutrements- kimchi, lettuce wraps, sauces, toppings (cucumbers, bean sprouts, pickled veggies, etc.). It was a lot of food. Well worth the price. The cocktails were also delicious. We had the Memory and Tranquility, which were made with green tea and lemongrass infused spirits- very good! Prior to COVID I'm sure there was more of night scene with dancing and drinking as it looks to be setup for that, but it was table service only when I was there. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was because of the service. We waited at the door for probably 10 minutes because no one was at the host booth. By the time someone showed up there were probably 4 parties (10+ people) in line. It was definitely odd considering it was 7:30 on a Saturday night. We also had reservation and the automated text system told us to check in, but no one was there. Our dinner service was also a bit slow. I was never able to order the 2nd drink I wanted because the server did not come back before we were finished. All in all, a great experience and I definitely plan to be back. Servi read more

I should preface this review with the fact that I really don't like doing karaoke... until now, thanks to Cobra! Cobra has the best and most diverse catalogue of songs I have ever seen. Literally everything you can think of is on their iPads and this aspect alone makes it so much fun because there is practically something for everyone. Also, the service is amazing! Our server, Shawn, was attentive and fun. The drinks were delicious - I didn't order any food so I can't speak to that. The price for one hour is $50 which is great considering how many people you can put in one room. We had eight and were comfortable. I had an amazing experience with friends and can't wait to go back! read more

Cobra is such a fun, unique, and cool place. It is definitely a vibe. The smokeless grill tables are the way to go. You get to choose and then cook your dishes.

The food is AMAZING and you get a decent portion size. read more

We made reservations well in advance for this place, with the grill table. It's very dark and night-club feeling, so perfect for a date! Haha our server was very attentive. We ordered the cobra omakase 2. We wanted to try the wagyu and this was the best sampler option to get that meat. You can tell the meat itself is extremely high quality, not just the wagyu either, but everything else too. The meat didn't even need anything, you could also sprinkle a little salt or dip it if you wanted. The meal came with an SSAM pack too, which were a bunch of little side dishes like kimchi, pickled veggies, etc. I can say that I was pretty disappointed in everything except the meat. Their sides and other dishes should have been fantastic, as that's the only thing they're actually cooking for us. The kimchi severely lacked flavor. We cook the meat ourselves at the table. Because of this fact, the price was really what would prevent us from coming back here. It is like a Japanese Melting Pot. I'd rather go buy these high quality meats on our own in the strip district and go home then. You're truly paying for the experience and high quality ingredients, so I understand the appeal but we won't be repeat customers. read more

Came here with friends the other night and while it looks odd from the outside, the inside is dark and moody - cool vibe to go with the food. I was in a group of four and we all agreed on the Omakase II, Japchae and a veg. There was a ton of food and all of it was delicious! We didn't need the sides in addition to the Omakase, but we wanted to try a few more things. The meat was great quality and everything tasted delicious. Our service was fantastic. She was informative without being too much, gave great recommendations and demoed how to cook the food on the grille for the best result. It's expensive, but a fun experience especially with a small group of foodies! I will definitely be back... hopefully next time we'll add karaoke to our experience! read more

SO much fun to go with a group and try the BBQ tables! We went with two other couples and had a great time with the Omakase I menu, which provided us with copious amounts of meat, banchan, and rice.

Showed up on time for our reservation. Was told to go to the bar area and a server would seat us. Bartender asked us if we had reservations for dinning. We said yes. Then we stood in the bar area for the next 15 minutes as the bar staff basically plowed through us moving tables and chairs. It wasn't until I walked into the dinning area and stood in the entrance way that someone was forced to help us. Finally seated. Looked around and to my surprise the dining area was damn near empty. Food was mediocre and the most the tables were dirty. This is the second time I've been here. First time was for a show. This night was for a show too but with dining before hand. Spent about 500 bucks for 3 of us and I felt ignored and robbed. Won't be back. Will find a better place for dinning and entertainment. read more

UPDATE: After eating here my rating had gone from four stars to five! The food is beyond delicious, fresh and amazing. Pittsburgh has nothing like this at all and I'm glad they're in my hood! In addition it's just an overall amazing experience! The former Feng in my neighborhood of Bloomfield has been transformed into this amazing club. It's hip, modern and something you'd expect to find in NYC. Tonight was opening night with a dance party that was off the rails fun and exciting! The decor is fantastic and well put together. Staff was cool and knew their stuff, a couple of kinks but overall you'd never know it was opening night. Drinks are delish and fairly priced. The food will be Korean/Japanese bbq specializing in Wagyu. Starting next week the food will be available and my mouth was watering looking at the menu. Can't wait to get back for it. So glad the empty space that was Feng is now so rad. Just what we needed! read more

They bring you drinks as needed and there are tons of songs to pick from. It was very reasonable for $50 an hour. We sang for 2 hours and we didn't want the night to end! I can say the room was super hot so dress in cool clothing. The drinks were delicious but very expensive. I heard the food is tasty so one day we will have to go back and try it out. I would definitely return for karaoke again!!! read more
