service was great, servers were really sweet and nice. unfortunately the food was meh. meat was a bit bland and tough, radish banchan sliced quite thick, multigrain rice soggy. $43 plus tax and mandatory 18% tip for ayce dinner. i prefer ohgane for ayce (they also have cold beef noodle, which gogi time did not).

Wasn’t sure what to expect because hadn’t had Korean BBQ in this area, but it turned out a great experience.
First thing I noticed is they’re very nice. Very welcoming. That sets the tone. Next thing I noticed is they have a fairly large rectangular grill which is better than the circles I usually see. And they are fast about changing the grill expeditiously as it gets gunked up with the sauces.
It’s spacious and yet urban nice inside. Perhaps a little dark but different strokes for different folks. We were in the side room which was darker.
About $40 for the all you can eat, which I would recommend. You get two appetizers and four meats at a time. Also can get a couple sides and/or veggies.
Good selection of meats. And the meats are GOOD portion size. And good thickness. Excellent soup and sides. Specifically the tofu soup. Softener kinds of rice. All goodness.
You will leave here full of you get the all you can eat.
Parking lot is a little odd. Slotted, angled spaces; so you need to back out to the street to exit. But at least they have a posting lot at all! Better than street parking.

Just left Gogi Time here in Oakland — what an amazing experience! Tyler and Tanya were my servers, and they were absolutely incredible. 10/10 service all around! They were attentive, courteous, and consistently checked in to make sure we were happy with our order. The food came out quickly, everything was fresh and flavorful, and the overall vibe was great. Definitely recommend this spot — and if you go, ask for Tyler and Tanya!

This has to be the worst “Korean BBQ” spot I’ve ever been to. My buddies and I ordered all-you-can-eat, while a couple of them ordered individual dishes, and the experience was bad across the board. The food was completely unauthentic. The kimchi stew was filled with red food dye and tasted like ketchup rather than real kimchi jjigae. Even the white rice was wrong. It wasn’t the short-grain white rice traditional Korean restaurants use, but cheap-tasting jasmine rice. It was brought out in large bowls one at a time, forcing everyone to scoop their own rice, which made it get cold far quicker than it should have.
The service was just as disappointing. We ordered a kimchi pancake, which normally takes at most 10 minutes to cook, yet it took almost 25 minutes to come out even after asking multiple times. Most of the workers were white guys who rarely stayed in the restaurant and kept disappearing into a back room, while all the people actually cooking the food were Hispanic. There was very little presence or communication on the floor.
To top it all off, when we received our check, we were charged a non-negotiable, built-in 25% tip. Twenty-five percent!?!?! Each persons bill rung up for $65 when the all you can eat was priced at $42.99, which is still far more expensive than any restaurant in the area. This was never made clear upfront and felt completely unjustified given the quality of the food and service.
There are plenty of other places in the Bay Area, especially in Oakland, that offer far better food, service, and transparency with pricing. This restaurant gives a completely wrong perception of what Korean food tastes like and does not reflect how our culture works at all. Don’t give this place any more business.

Just as every review says, this place is awesome! I love Korean BBQ and it’s all you can eat, Need I say more! You do cook the food yourself which is just a fun experience with everyone. The short ribs and the kimchi pancakes were probably my favorite thing we got. We also got the garlic pork belly, shrimp, brisket, sirloin.. pretty much everything on the menu. Everything was fantastic. The service was amazing as well. We never felt like we were missing food or was waiting for more. They also come around change out your burner top so it’s always clean. If you really need convincing and your not just sure. Just walk in front of the building and you’ll be convinced by the amazing aroma of Korean BBQ food!

Worst korean BBQ ever!!! $111 for me and my partner, they charged us 18% service charge for serving two people? NOT WORTH IT!!
we came here for some good food but got disappointed instead.
Waitress here was awful!! Saw her making faces after she turned around after giving us our food, looks like she’s not in the right line of work.
Food quality is poor, this is a good restaurant years ago, the food they serve didn’t match their price. Meat quality was terrible with absolutely no flavor.
rice was overcooked mushy and sticky. radish wrapper had MOLD!! Grill had soap residue on it!!
WE ARE DEFINITELY NOT GOING BACK AGAIN.

We had a blast and the food was so delicious it was hard not to let my eyes be bigger than my stomach! Grill was changed out consistently and there were plenty of options on the All You Can Eat Menu. The playlist of music being played was the perfect addition to the good time we were having. I would totally recommend this place for the food experience, it’s not the fanciest or trendiest on the inside but we still had a blast and left more full than on Thanksgiving lol.

All you can eat for $32. Short ribs are the best. Their banchan is also excellent. Staff are friendly and attentive, we never had to wait to order more meat.
The only areas of improvement would be brighter lighting (when it gets dark), providing wet wipes or more napkins from the start (grilling is a messy process), and cleaner restrooms. But the service and the food was great, so I’m still giving a 5 star review.
