Still the Koja I remember with awesome fries and sauce, delicious chicken wings, and yummy koja. Ordered the Zen Koja with the portobello mushroom, Umami Fries, and Korean Buffalo and Soy Garlic Wings. Service was okay. The ambiance was typical of other Kojas.
Got the original short rib koja with an added egg for dinner this past Friday. This is easily the best thing on their menu IMO, and my go-to dish at this chain. It was made just right. Looked exactly like the pic on the menu, with layers of the good stuff. The rice bun slightly crispy on the outside, the kalbi meat tender and flavorful, all of the other ingredients in perfect proportions to elevate taste while holding together well. It was fast and easy to order on the self-order kiosks, no interaction with staff needed. And I got a text when it was ready, which took less than ten minutes. The place was clean, modern, and inviting. I was able to listen to live music in the plaza while dining in the restaurant's outdoor patio. Based on quality of food and overall experience, this may be the best Koja Kitchen I've been to in the bay area.
TL;DR -- I am really glad I got the short rib bowl, over the Koja. My friend got the "Koja" and he liked everything except for the fact that the rice was ultra ultra cripsy and then soft and chewy in the middle. I mean, that's the point but definitely not for me! I got the Short rib bowl and I was surpised by how much you get in the serving size (even togo). For maybe close to $11-13 I got tender, flavorful korean-marinated short ribs off the bone (tasted straight off the grill) with a nice bed of rice and greens + kimchi. Solid! We ordered on the electronic kiosks at the front and after a quick (what felt like) 5 minutes, the food was ready (to-go) on the side counter. They make you put a phone number down, so that they can text you updates on the order. Otherwise, we could've eaten there. Great atmosphere with plentiful seating and air conditioning. There is also limited seating outdoors in the plaza, just outside near the parking lot.
I haven't had Koja Kitchen in a while, so when I saw that they had a Fremont location, I decided to give it a try again. I ordered the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl and it was a solid bowl. The flavors were all tasty and the bowl was really filling. I usually like the build my own poke bowl, but this was a solid customized poke bowl. I am glad report that Koja Kitchen remains a solid Asian fusion casual food option for a quick and tasty meal!
It's been a few years since my last visit to this location & the experience is just as good as I remembered. It's located across from Sleep Number and near the movie theater. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for well marinated meat & fresh food. Think of it like Korean bbq + Japanese street food. I ordered the short rib bowl (no fries this time) But their fries are so good! So crispy & you can upgrade them to kamikaze or umami fries. Aside from the bowl, I would like to highlight the spinach salad, and the kimchi definitely heightened the bowl and gave it such freshness along with the rice. I am here for a work trip so I showed my coworkers places around the area I used to eat and they loved this spot. They ordered the tacos and the bowls. They serve fresh lemonade which I ordered & everyone else got fountain drinks. Service was quick and they now have self order screens available. After ordering they give you a buzzer when food is ready. They have tons of seating inside and outdoor seating as well.
I have tried several locations and this was my first time trying this one. The original and the beef koja were made well. Rice patty had the right amount of crunch. Veggies were fresh and the portions of the meat were good too. I haven't tried any of the chickens ones but my go-to is the original koja.
"Sweet Buns, Crispy Rice, and Solid Comfort Food at KoJa" Food (4.5 / 5): The Original KoJa is always a fan favorite, and it's easy to see why -- the crispy rice bun paired with flavorful meat is a classic. That said, it personally wasn't my top pick this time since I prefer softer rice. Next visit, I'll probably go with the bowl instead. What really surprised me was the Bulgogi Bun Burger. The bun tastes like a giant piece of Hawaiian bread with a subtle sweetness that works perfectly with the dish. The beef was tender, and the bulgogi marinade was extremely flavorful -- easily the standout item for me. The waffle fries deserve a shoutout too. Paired with their sauces, they're extremely good and go well with just about anything on the menu. And if you still have room, you can't go wrong with the Spam Musubi. It comes with plenty of toppings, letting you switch up the flavors and keep things interesting until the last bite. Service (4 / 5): Ordering is simple and efficient. You place your order at a kiosk, and about 10 minutes later you'll get a text letting you know your food is ready. Smooth, no-fuss process. Ambience / Décor: The restaurant offers outdoor seating, making it pet friendly. The setup is casual and relaxed -- a great spot to grab a quick bite or hang out with friends. Overall: KoJa delivers solid, flavorful food with a few standout items, especially the bulgogi bun burger. Easy ordering, outdoor seating, and good portions make this a spot worth revisiting.
Koja Kitchen has been around for a while and I'm surprised I only come here a few times. Each time has always been a good experience though! My bf and I wanted a quick bite to eat before the movies so we ended up here :) I got the beef bowl with an egg added and my bf got the chicken bowl with 2 eggs lol. Pretty delicious! I got so full. The beef was marinated well and tbh the crab salad is so good here. I think the portions are more than enough! Also if you don't like any spice, make sure to remove gochujang otherwise leave it if you enjoy that! Overall, this place can't disappoint esp. if you know what you're ordering! Service was cool, we did kinda come in 45 min before closing but it wasn't too busy! Ambiance was alright as well, we sat outside though!
went here and got the kamikaze fries, soy garlic wings and the chicken and rice bowl. It was SOOOOOOO good. It was fresh, crispy and very flavorful. Not the most fancy ambience but food hits it out of the park, and great portions for the price.
We wanted to try something with different flavors, and Koja delivered! We ordered the chicken bowl, kamikaze fries, and one chicken taco, everything was delicious. The flavor, spice level, and portion sizes were all on point. One thing to note: there was no cashier or counter staff taking orders. You place your order at a kiosk/stand, get a receipt with your number, and wait for them to call it. Simple enough, just good to know ahead of time. Restaurant itself is very quite big with multiple seating arrangements and very clean as well. Will be back for sure!!
Came here to give this spot another shot and it still wasn't was good as the first time. The lettuce in the bowls was soggy and didn't seem fresh. The meat wasn't as lean either. There were several pieces with big chunks or fat and gristle. Disappointing because the actual meat pieces are really tasty. The fries were pretty good but get mushy very quick. I don't know if we'll be back. Don't think it's worth it for $40.
Yummmm! The fries here are so good! They are so flavorful and delicious- it's also super affordable as well. I had my order packed to go and it was fresh and crispy just how I like it!
Pretty solid spot for casual lunch. Nothing insane but everything is generally pretty good. I like to use the deals on Uber eats too belly down the price a lil bit tho. The braised pork is solid love the coconut miso finally. The bowls all have a carb veggie and protein so it's good for a healthy ish meal. Don't forget the kojas which are like crispy rice burgers/sandwiches
Reviews are generally positive. Many enjoy the flavorful fusion dishes, generous portions, and easy ordering process. The space is clean and modern.

Located at the Pacific Commons near the Tesla Factory. Perfect for a little getaway meal. There is ample parking and you order at a kiosk. They will call your number when it is ready. Food was okay. I usually enjoy Korean and Japanese food. There was something that felt was attracting the knats. The interior was a chill place with spacious ceilings. A lot of their soda was out of service so they should probably repair that soon. It is a nice chill lunch spot that I would return to read more
Comfort fusion food Order is by kiosk and food pick up. The drink situation was confusing, like we weren't sure if we could just grab the cold drinks from the fridge or wait for someone got hand them to us. It was the former Food came out pretty quickly after ordering. The place had people coming and going but wasn't really busy. The musubi and chicken rice bowl was packed with rice. The bowl came with a salad too. I think you get your money's worth with the bowl with the amount of chicken and sides in packed in. The kamekazi fries were ok. Not very crispy and the topping didn't add much flavor. The beef and pork belly tacos were really good. Loaded with meats and sauce, so it was hard to contain everything after one bite. Messy but delicious. The restaurant had plenty of open tables and the stone layout kept the place pretty cool. read more

I ordered the Zen bowl here, and the vegetarian food was honestly really delicious. I also really loved the waffle fries with sauce. The flavor was rich and unique. Overall, I definitely recommend this place, and I'll come back to try some of their other dishes. The customer service was also really nice. The cashier was very kind and explained everything to me carefully when I had questions. read more
Everytime I go to Koja Kitchen, it's bc I'm craving some Kamikaze fries, or the pictures of it pull me in. I decided to fulfill the craving and also try the umami fries, ahi tuna bowl, and signature spam musubi. Kamikaze fries: 5/5, will always recommend. Umami fries: 5/5, had pork instead of beef. Ahi tuna bowl: 4/5, sauce had a lil more wasabi taste than preferred. Signature spam musubi: 3/5. Basic, your usual musubi w extra tamago and avocado but lacking special/signature flavor. Also mine didn't have any bacon in it as described. Will always return for a waffle fry craving! The other items are okay. Plenty of parking, walk in and order at the cashier, hold onto your vibrator number until it goes off, self serve, fast food. I did try to squirt some sriracha into a small paper cup but then the whole lid blew off and it was just me and a cup's worth of Sriracha on the counter for me to clean up. Kitchen staff didn't understand what my issue was (language?); cashier went somewhere. Good thing I didn't hold the bottle directly over my food. read more
Tasty snacks - check! The flavors are popping. Serving sizes are exactly what we should be eating. And living the variety offered. Wasn't expecting quite as much as there was so it was hard to choose, but I went with some spam musubi, a braised, pork taco and a braised pork bowl. Light bite dinner and lunch tomorrow. Huge fan of the spam comes with making an avocado, which was a nice surprise. I didn't read the details of the menu so it felt extra fancy. Braised pork taco was a little oily and I wish there was just a smidge more spice to it had some bites with flavor and some kind of lacking and the pork bowl was a nice size and comes with wider brown rice and the kimchi mixture. I put a couple dabs of hot sauce on it and took a few bites and for me that made it. It was good by itself too. I just needed a kick of spice tonight. Definitely looking forward to checking them out again and exploring more of the menu options . read more

I absolutely love this restaurant! They have the best fries I've ever had, and all of the dishes are packed with flavor. The restaurant is spacious and clean, and I really appreciate how friendly and attentive the staff are. I highly recommend trying the short rib bowl or either of their two types of fries. Definitely worth a try! read more
I placed an order on Yelp for pickup while I was in the area. I got distracted at the Sleep Number store across the street from them so by the time I went in for my order it was ready to go at their online order pick up location. I ordered two appetizers the Kamikaze Fries & Spam Musubi for myself. The Kamikaze Fries were as delicious as they looked in the pictures. Of course in the beginning there was a lot of crunch but towards the end they got a little soggy. Nothing they can do about that. The flavor was definitely there. The Spam Musubi was exactly what I needed that day. Comfort delicious flavorful food. My husband got the Short Rib Bowl with white rice. He really liked the short rib seasoning with the white rice was perfect. He did not care for the salad that comes with it, little too much for his liking but still satisfying. I tried the Kimchi it comes with it and that was really well seasoned. Overall we liked this location and super glad its close to home. read more

I got this as delivery and it was pretty alright. I ordered the short rib Koja burger and soy garlic wings, while my friends got their short rib and beef bowls. Their short rib in the koja burger was pretty solid and flavorful, but I did think that their rice buns were really dense. It was also just difficult to eat (as it was so big). My friends thought their bowls were good though! I wish the wings had a bit more sauce, but it was decent. Overall, not a bad spot for some fusion Korean food. read more

We came here on a weekend night and surprisingly it wasn't busy at all. The interior was clean and we got our food pretty quickly. This is a nice quick Korean fusion restaurant. I got the short rib bowl with kamikaze fries. There's a good meat to rice ratio in my opinion and the meats are seasoned well! Fries were crispy and flavorful as well. read more
I really wanted this place to be better. Flavors were good, but the rice was stale and for the price did not have a lot of meat (all of the meat is on the side that is served out so it looks like more than it is). Service was non existent because we ordered on an iPad and got a text when it was ready. I don't think we will be back. read more

Got this delivered to San Jose as part of a huge team lunch on Thursday afternoon. Delivery was on time and hassle-free. I ordered a Crispy Chicken Bowl and Beef Bowl along with fries. Both bowls are really delicious and the crispy chicken still kept its crunch despite the long commute. I was not satisfied with the fries though since they were soggy, cold and not seasoned but it is understandable taking consideration of the long distance. I really enjoyed the sauce that was on the crispy chicken (tasted like some sort of garlic aioli). The beef bowl was sweet and had a bit of a kick to it but overall very good, too. Highly recommend both bowls depending on what protein you are craving that day. read more

Flavor of beef bowl and original koja were good. I was excited to try the kamikaze fries because pictures on Yelp make them look delicious but to me they were just okay. Good flavor but not sure I'd seek this place out again for another try. Ordered: beef bowl (add egg and extra kimchi), original koja, and kamikaze fries read more

I've been to Koja Kitchen in a different location, but this spot really topped the other one. The portions are big and reasonably priced, service is very quick, and the food tasted so fresh. I loved how much seating was available inside, and it was honestly pretty clean. The bathrooms were also very clean. Will definitely be returning here! read more

I love coming here. The food always hits the spot. My favorite is the Ahi Tuna Bowl. It's a lot of food and everything always tastes great. Also, no matter how busy they get, the food always looks presentable. They have plenty of seating inside and outside. They do have limited vegetarian options but I never get tired of their Ahi Tuna bowl. read more

Yes ... There is one of these in Cupertino that we used to go to all the time. Then they split their space with another place, and they took away the tacos that I really liked. Now I'm seeing the Cupertino location is closed. Bummer. But I have a new job, and I'm right around the corner from this one, and I've already been here a bunch of times. And they have the chicken and beef and pork tacos I like so much. And the staff are very quick and friendly. Wish I could get their wifi to work on my phone though. read more
