Absolutely amazing food all around, as well as how quick the service was! Very friendly environment, would absolutely come here again!

Been here multiple times, amazing service and dining area is very neat! Highly recommend!

Decent AYCE KBBQ spot. Standard menu with good quality meats, friendly & attentive service, spacious interior, and overall good vibes. My recommendations are to: 1. Call ahead to reserve a spot for larger parties 2. Take whatever street parking you can find outside/nearby--the parking lot is cramped and packed 99.99% of the time! 3. Order the marinated finger meat, galbi, radish wraps, steamed egg, and stews I wish their grills were slightly larger, but they're great with grill changes so not too big of an issue. Would recommend for KBBQ for both large & small groups. read more

Food quality and ingredients are great. Service is good overall, love having the kiosk to order as this approved efficiency. Ambiance is loud and busy. Value is ok. It's tough when they charge adult pricing for kids, especially my younger ones who barely eat enough. It makes it us feel that the rest of our party needs to over-eat just to feel like we're getting our money's worth. Definitely think you need to figure a better pricing model that is more fair to children who don't eat that much. Also there were some technical issues when it came time to pay. It's not really anyone's fault but waiting 15-20 minutes to pay is unheard of. And staff didn't really say anything l, just left me there to sit and wait, while the rest of party was outside wondering why I was taking my so long. read more

Overall, I'd rate Ohgane BBQ 3.8/5. The reservation process was quick and helpful, and although we arrived early, we were seated promptly once our full party arrived. The banchan was already on the table, which was a nice touch. The main issue was the service after we were seated. No server came by for 10-15 minutes, so I had to get the water pitchers myself and ask how to place our order. Ordering through the tablet was convenient, although the tablet was unusually heavy and the table felt a little sticky. When we were ready to pay, we also had to flag someone down for assistance. The food that did arrive came out quickly and was good, but several items never showed up even after we ordered one item about three times. We had to reorder a few dishes and hope the original orders wouldn't arrive later. For seven people, the total came to about $360, including tax and service charge. We also had only one small grill, which made cooking difficult for a larger group. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience. The food was enjoyable and making a reservation was easy, but the service and order organization could use improvement. I probably wouldn't make the drive specifically for KBBQ, though it's worth trying if you're already nearby read more

Ohgane is my go-to spot whenever I'm craving AYCE KBBQ. I love the variety of complimentary side dishes that come with the meal. We always order the corn cheese and steamed egg, and I also love the soondoobu tofu stew, fresh salad, dipping sauces, and all the other banchan that keep coming out. My favorite way to eat here is wrapping the grilled meat in pickled radish slices and adding whole garlic cloves for the perfect bite. As for the meats, we always load up on the pork belly, bulgogi, and beef brisket. The staff does a great job keeping up with refills and replacing the grill grate. You order thru an iPad and it times out for ~5-10 min after you place an order, so try to order a lot at once. read more

Things have worsened over time. The order system is now completely through the tablet. This means that the first thing you get to do here is touch the grease coated tablet screen to get your orders going. It feels nasty. The UI is also clunky and unintuitive. For each menu item you add to the cart, you get to wait 2 ful seconds until that pop up notification saying "your item is added to the cart" clears up. Laminated menus now have a way smaller font size, making it hard to read. Go ahead and squint. The minimum tip guidance is now at 20% of subtotal PLUS TAX. Food has maintained similar quairy over time. My recommendation still stands, stick to brisket for maximal bang for buck. read more

Horrible experience tonight. We were seated and patiently waited for our order to be taken. However, we waited quite a long time and no one came to take drink or food order. Two other tables that arrived after us, received their food and began eating while we still didn't put in drink orders. I finally spoke out in a loud voice to get the server attention. She seemed unapologetic and thought it was no big deal when I explained what is going on. She said she would get the manager. We waited longer but the manager didn't come. We got up and left the restaurant. Sad to see a business do so awful in such a simple job. Stay away from this place. read more

I've been to a lot of all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ places, and I honestly think this place is one of the best when it comes to value, taste, meat quality, and speed. The service can be a little inconsistent at times, but when it comes to the food, I think their meats and stews are some of the best among all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ restaurants. They also have a great variety of options to choose from. I've tried other Ohgane locations, but personally, I think the Oakland location does the best job overall. read more

So.much.fun We've been to Ohgane years ago, but I feel with kiddos, everything feels different. A friend called ahead to make a reservation for a special birthday, and we were seated upon arrival. With a big group we split up our tables so each group could have access to a tabletop mesquite grill. We chose the "all you can eat" option and honestly, went ham! We chose a variety of meats, chicken, shrimp, veggies, and ordered corn cheese, potstickers, the veggie pancake, seaweed salad, and honestly, such a variety of items. The staff was patient and helped to guide us on how to cook the meats and what sauces to pair nicely with each protein. We had quite the spread. It was fun to try something different and enjoy a foodie experience with others who had never done ayce Korean bbq before. We ordered beers, the staff brought a shot for the birthday special guest, and an ice cream sandwich with candle at the end of the meal. All such nice touches. We would definitely come back again soon with a group. I enjoyed the small ice cream freezer by the exit you can leave cash for, and the street parking outside of restaurant (we came on a weekend so not sure how weekdays are). There's also a small lot specific to the restaurant. One last thing, we splurged and even did the Photo Booth upon entry :) All in all, a culinary blast for us all. read more

It's been a while since I've been to Ohgane Korean BBQ. The last time was during COVID. This time, I took my brother out for Sunday lunch, and we got the Premium All-You-Can-Eat. I have to say, the experience was great. The food and service have definitely improved. The highlight was the customer service, how efficient everyone was, and the quality of the premium meats. Definitely looking forward to going back again soon! read more

Let me start by acknowledging that bbq is not my go to meal. Beef isn't my go to protein. That being said, I totally enjoyed my meal at Ohgane! The service was great and ordering on the tablet (which shows helpful pictures of everything) let us take our time and not feel pressured ordering. Staff also replaced our grill multiple times throughout our meal so we wouldn't get smoked out :) The food is good. It's not the best (go to san ho won for that) but it's satisfying and there's good variety. I had shrimp, baby octopus, grilled veggies, in addition to all the other meats my dinner mates ordered. I was impressed with the brisket but my mates both liked the "finger meat" best. The banchan was alright. They missed a few of our side orders but no biggie cause you can just re order them later (though there is a timer for each section of the menu. e.g.. you're blocked from ordering sides until ~10 min has passed since you last placed an order for sides. read more

Happy April! We came here to celebrate our friends' early birthday dinner! Being raised in Oakland, I've been to this spot quite a few times now. There's a small lot in front of the restaurant. The security helped guide us in the parking spaces. It is quite tight. We put our name down for the waitlist and it was only a 5-10 mins wait (we came on a Tuesday night). Once seated, we got our physical menus. You order through the tablet. Meats were all really decent. Overall, this place is a pretty good standard kbbq spot. Price was not too bad either for ayce! Service was quick as well! read more

A very rushed experienced.Waiter was very friendly, was a busy night so you can tell he was stressed out so I can't blame him. But I had to ask multiple times waiting up to 10-15 minutes for sauce and my order of rice. the ordering kiosk wouldn't work multiple times. So had to ask employees multiple times to fix it..... The grill still had moisture and soap on it. The tongs still had leftover residue from the previous user.. why this wasn't a one star is because maybe they just a bad night. I want to give them grace. read more

The waiter was really funny, kind, and welcoming. It made me feel like I belonged and the food was also really good.

Ohgane Korean BBQ - LA RIBS - Korean Near Me - Oakland, California

This place stays busy but you are seated quite quickly and are given banchan right away. You get to choose between regular or premium choices at different price points and then place your order on the tablet at the table and meats start rolling out fairly quickly thereafter. There are constant grill changes, which is appreciated. The 2010s music could be lowered a tad bit but it's still a chill environment. Our favorites were definitely the spicy pork belly, the bulgogi, and the beef short ribs for the meats. The marinate on all meats were on point! We also really enjoyed the corn cheese and jhap chae from the small plates menu. Overall, I definitely enjoyed the AYCE Korean BBQ options here since they have a good variety across the board for meat, seafood, and vegetables. Definitely one of the best in the East Bay!! read more

Came here for the all-you-can-eat option and had a good experience overall. The wait wasn't too long, which was nice for a weekend night. They also have their own parking lot, which makes things a lot easier in this area. The food was solid, meats were fresh, and everything came out quickly. They've got a large selection of drinks to go with the meal, which added to the experience. Good service, good food, and plenty of space. I'd come back again for another group dinner. read more

If I could give a 10 star review, this would be it! I brought my family from Boston to eat a Korean meal, this was a first for my brother in law, and he loved it! I've been skeptical about coming here cause I've been to Alameda and it was a tad different. Anyways as we entered it was busy, we were offered the choice to eat all you can eat or from the regular menu, we opted for regular. The young man that brought us to our table was busy catering to all the tables. I haven't been here in ages, been so long that I forgot we gotta support our Oakland. It was no disappointment. Our server, host was great! His name is Troy , he is such a kind and informative young man, we were lucky! The banchan kept getting refilled, food was delicious and definitely worth returning. read more

Ohgane Korean BBQ - Our banchan refilled 3x - Korean Near Me - Oakland, California

The service and food were overall great and worth the $38.99 all-you-can-eat price. The staff were very kind and welcoming. Once seated, our servers regularly checked in to see if we needed anything and even went out of their way to change our grill multiple times once it became charred, without us having to ask. Food also came out quickly after ordering, so there wasn't much wait time between rounds. I also liked the table call button, which made it easy to get a server's attention when needed. The grill heat was consistent and didn't need constant adjusting or randomly die down, unlike at other Korean BBQ spots. As for the food, your experience will likely depend on what you order. I only tried a few meats, but the bulgogi was great. The garlic pork belly was quite salty so my table couldn't finish it, though the other pork options were enjoyable. Overall, I had a great experience and would return again to try more of the menu. read more

First, a restaurant with an actual parking lot? Love that. The inside is slick and spacious with tables to seat 2-6. Two all you can eat menus and separate lunch offerings ala carte. The all you can eat looked great but I opted for the Lunch Box with the beef ribs. Lunch items came with a bowl of soup that was spicy good. The box came with so many different bites with seemingly obligitory salad (not sure why). The service was good and attentive but not intrusive. I would deffinitely come back to try more items and the drink (cocktail, wine and beer) menu was very robust - but maybe not for lunch (no judgement if you do - maybe just jealousy). read more

Been a banger for hella years. Price point is worth the quality, unlike some spots. Cant go wrong with the amount they set for the cheaper menu. If you go out here and there, and with multiple people, I'd spend my money here. P.s. I hate how yelp has become so fabricated I gotta say pin points. Just to help their algorithm. Shit is so forced. Service was and is always tight af. Always some homie that serves and I have something to chop it up with. Very human experience. I don't rush them, they don't rush me. They got hella other people they're taking care of and still get shit done. Ambiance - lmao this app is stupid. Just come to oghane yall. It's always been poppin or chillin. Thanks to yall for being me and my families spot for hella years since opening. I will never get tired of almost all the free delicious house made accoutrements/banchan. Do not sleep on their ssamjang and fish cakes. Shout out to Michael for being one of the new (to me) guys who's serving up some real hospitality. 6/24 12pm I just wanted the free soda but yelp had to make me write an essay. I realized I should give my flowers after 10+ years . Anybody catching this Switzerland Canada game? Canada is getting SMOKED. read more

Ohh how I missed KBBQ!! It had been a while since I've been able to get it, and first time in the Bay Area. Upon the recommendation of my friend, we tried Ohgane in Oakland. Note, there is limited parking so we had to park on the street. The staff was friendly and efficient! The banchan was really tasty! My favorite was the cucumbers. The meet was all high quality. The spicy pork belly and spicy chicken weren't our favorite, but the brisket is always the stand out! This is THEE KBBQ in the East Bay. Definitely will become a regular spot. read more

Ohgane is definitely one of my favorite spots for AYCE Korean BBQ in Oakland! The meat was fresh, flavorful, and there were plenty of options to choose from. Everything came out quickly, and the portions were generous. The service was friendly and attentive, and it's a great place to come with a group and just enjoy a fun meal. Definitely left full and satisfied. Would absolutely come back again! read more

Came in for Mother's Day lunch and easily found parking in their little parking lot. It wasn't busy when my party of 10 arrived we were seated maybe 15 minutes after arrival. Our server was semi friendly but not as attentive but I get it maybe it was short staffed due to the holiday. Ordering the meats was easy, we order off of the tablet on the table and there is sauces on the table already which you can refill like sesame oil, chili sauce, & salt. There is additional sauces you can order on the tablet. The meats came out fairly quick upon ordering however our sides often came out missing each time our order was sent out. It almost felt like a bother asking them about our side orders, but we just kept ordering on the tablet till we eventually got them. The space it self was pretty nice and big they had a photo booth in the waiting area which reminded me of the ones they have in japantown sf! I'll try this place again on a non holiday. read more

Ohgane is literally the OG All you can eat Korean BBQ place. They really know what they are doing. Over the years, they have honestly their menu and setup for maximum efficiency. The place is clean and their servers are fast and on it!! They proactively offer to replace the grill and they are quick to bring out things as requested. This time around, I love that they have added pads at the table to place orders. Stuff comes out within minutes of submitting order. Side quest recognition: my husband accidentally dropped his wallet last night. We came back at opening and they had it ready to hand over. They are used to this and know how to keep things safe. Love it!! read more

Great and reliable Kbbq spot! The place was packed by 7pm on Saturday so definitely recommend going early if you don't have a reservation.

I also had to try the red bean taiyaki which was a nice ending to our meal. read more

Had a lovely experience here, the staff are very attentive, kind, and welcoming and I always have a great time coming here for special occasions. They even replace the grill without having to be asked! Been here twice just in the past month and will do so again and again. The food quality is very high, I always get the AYCE (B Dinner) and I love the add ons, meats, appetizers, etc. ambience is great, huge fan of the music selection and the overall atmosphere. This is my pick for the best KBBQ in the Bay from what I've tried Get the NY beef shortribs, insanely good read more

TLDR: all you can eat but the quality of the meats isn't that great. We haven't been to Ohgane in about 7 years, during the Before Times. But we were excited since the last time we ate, it was a good meal at a fair price. This time we were disappointed. It was a middling meal at a high price. I'll start with the positive. The wait staff were amazingly friendly and prompt. They were stellar. The ambience has gone downhill. The place desperately needs a make over. The floors are sticky. The tables are sticky. The menus are sticky. The music is too loud. The ventilation system isn't coping. It feels a bit tired and dated. By far the worst was the food. The ban chan was small and did not evoke joy. The meats were plentiful but lower quality of cuts. The provided dipping sauces were really disappointing. The selection of sauces was just meh and they individually were meh. For just meh, the cost per person was a bit eye blistering. I think you could do much better ordering a la carte elsewhere In summary, AYCE but I didn't eat until I was stuffed to the gills because it just didn't taste that great. Instead went to Piedmont to get some ice cream. That should say it all. read more

So so good. Great meat, good taste, good service. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would come back! read more
