First time at Cobra, but I have had Korean BBQ more than a handful of times. My wife and I ordered the Omakase 2 and some appetizers. The quality of meat was good, and the facility was clean. It wasn’t very busy, but it seemed like they were rushing us through the courses. It was also a little pricey. Not terrible, but I’m not sure if I will come back.

This a great spot, more of an experience than dinner.
We have been here a few times and have really enjoyed it every time.
The atmosphere is very nice, they have a full bar and solid specialty cocktails. The theme is not subtle but well done.
The servers make you feel welcome and pay attention to the details.
The food is an experience both because it is high quality and you get to cook it at your table.
We will be back

Can only speak to karaoke!!
We went with a group of 7 and had so much fun! Great selection of songs. Room was definitely a little gross – can only imagine what that carpet has seen.
4 stars because the temperature in the room was SO HOT. I’m assuming they built the private karaoke rooms and didn’t put HVAC in there. There’s a small fan but it wasn’t providing any comfort. Also, karaokes was 80$ for an hour and a half, which was fine, but they added gratuity onto the check which was annoying. We didn’t drink or eat, just came to sing karaoke, so not sure why we needed to tip..

Cobra is an absolute gem! The ambiance perfectly blends a chic, club-like vibe with a cozy dining experience. We indulged in the Cobra Omakase II (see photo), and every bite was bursting with incredible flavors. The interactive experience of cooking our own food at the table added a fun and unique touch to the evening. For the appetizer, we had the special of the night: braised short rib dumplings in a coconut curry sauce, and they were simply divine. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an exceptional dining adventure!

I could not have loved this place more! The food was absolutely incredible. Both the prepared foods and the food for cooking at your table were exceptional quality with fantastic presentation that really elevated the flavor profiles. The tables were beautiful and secluded with privacy to hear yourself talk and enjoy your meal peacefully. I came to celebrate surviving the first week of law school and I know with absolute certainty that I will be back many more times for celebrations and mundane days alike. Additionally I would love to thank the wonderful employees who were so attentive and helpful!

This was amazing. The food was high quality and delicious, the atmosphere is very cool and it was so much fun to create the different combinations of food together on the grill. It is expensive but it is also a good deal of food. It’s definitely worth stopping by and we look forward to renting a karaoke room sometime.

The club is cool and the service was good.
Did not try the food.
For $60 an hour, I expected much better from karaoke.
System was just an iPad and felt cheap. Was not impressed with the selection as it was just mainstream popular songs.
Karaoke sound system was awful. Sound was scratchy and sounded terrible. Even after the staff came in to fix it, still continued to act up. Eventually it got better but still sounded staticky the whole time.
Mic kept cutting out during songs
Microphone was way too quiet and no way to adjust volume or any settings (volume, echo, ect)
No way to adjust sound settings for the music.
Did not stay the whole time and left after about 40 minutes
Go to any tiny random bar in Japan and their Karaoke will be 50 times better for free.

Recently visited Cobra, a Korean BBQ restaurant in Pittsburgh, and I had a mixed experience. The restaurant had a dark and clean ambiance that created a romantic atmosphere, perfect for a cozy evening.
The food quality at Cobra was pretty good. The Korean barbecue selection was flavorful and satisfying, with a variety of marinated meats and delicious side dishes. However, I was disappointed with the waiter’s lack of assistance in understanding the concept of Korean barbecue. It would have been helpful to receive some guidance on the different cuts of meat and cooking techniques.
Despite the slight drawback, I would still recommend Cobra for its excellent food and romantic setting. However, it’s important to note that dining here can be quite pricey, with the Korean BBQ option costing $60-$75 per person. If you’re willing to splurge for a special occasion and enjoy a memorable culinary adventure, Cobra is definitely worth considering.
Overall, Cobra offers a great dining experience with its mouthwatering food and romantic ambiance. Just be prepared for the higher price point and the possibility of limited assistance from the staff regarding the concept of Korean barbecue

We enjoyed everything about our dinner experience once we got rolling. The only thing we’d change is we sat for a while. We were waiting for someone else to arrive, however we wanted to order an appetizer and had questions and had to go find someone to take our appetizer order. We sat for a while without any attention. After that, we continued to sit with no one checking in until our appetizer came. Once the appetizer came, we place our order, and then we had 3 people waiting on our table. I’m not sure why the first 20 minutes was so awkward. The food was delicious! Love the Korean corn and the bok choy! The meat was incredible and the ambience was nice. We enjoyed our dinner! Also, thank you for the birthday dessert!! We tipped well because we thoroughly enjoyed our time once it got started.

The food was pretty good even tho they didn’t have to many options on sides, the meat was great I think my favorite part of the restaurant.. the service wasn’t so great I think the server only came back once to see of we needed anything.. the atmosphere was good, really dark but other wise it was a vibe..
