Fun place to dine with a group. Korean table BBQ where you are served a variety of meat and veg to cook yourself on the grill. Don’t go wearing anything fancy because your clothes will smell of BBQ 😀 served with a mixture of condiments, sides and soup with unlimited meat. The meat was delicious and tender. Service is good and a it’s a great value meal for the price of the unlimited BBQ.

Fantastic Friday lunch buffet -with still a la carte ordering available. A big restaurant with a humble entrance: don’t be shy, go upstairs with the lift and Sobahn is enormous and great for big groups as well as intimate corners. Professionally run, the service was excellent and above the price range (which is affordable and very competitive). I ordered the Bibimbap set as I had already eaten a solid breakfast, and the set included a stone baked rice bowl, the spicy red sauce - of course! - a choice of soup, and a half dozen authentic Korean side nibbles, including a delicious in-house made kimchi - which I ordered extra as takeaway! Also dessert came but I think that may have been kindness taken off the buffet. Many Korean guests, including families, were a sign that Sobahn is appreciated by the Korean community in Dubai. Overall a fantastic restaurant for a Friday lunch, which I’ll return to on an empty stomach!

A restaurant which serves Korean and Japanese cuisine. Famous for sea food and live barbeque.
They serves a range of starters, salad and cold assorted sea food. It was delicious with sauces.

Sweat and Sauva Chicken with vegetable fried rice was very good.

We choose mostly beef items for live barbeque.
It was good specially when it is done thin and crunchy

My friend has been telling me about this restaurant since about a year, finally we went. 5 ladies and we truly had a good time. The waiter was sweet but not informed about the food it self. Yet the food it self was very good, we ordered the Korean barbecue and a breaded shrimp, a spicy shrimp and all was really good. The price was also good comparing other restaurants. I highly recommend this place for a large group looking for a new experience.

- the place is lovely, asian vibes youll get as soon as you left the lift and on to your table.

- so far i only tried their
*unlimited bbq,
*California maki,
*salmon sashimi.
-The food menu is a mixed of japanese and korean dishes . But i do highly recommend the unlimited bbq! Its a set of everything from the soup for starter, The raw salmon salad! ( that is really tasty), different kinds of banchan, and lastly the different cuts of beef for bbq.
- the meat i enjoyed the most is the “galbi” (Not like the other restaurant who serves galbi) theirs is much more thicker and tastier. And dont forget the other cuts of meat with fat! Ooohhh all i can say is YUUMMMYY!!


S E R V I C E
- people who work there are very accommodating, from the moment you step inside the restaurant to your table, until the service for food ( quality experience. Clap clap) home feeling!

W O R T H I T
- was it worth it? YES!!! I will recommend this place to anyone!.. and i will keep coming back for sure!

I have been here many times,  they are noteworthy.

BTW this establishment operating for some time 2 -3 years or more, as I could recall (that's a note for Zomato staff) 

Came here yesterday (Friday afternoon), for some of their Korean BBQ meat, then found they have very reasonable Buffet, with lots of Japanese, Chinees and Korean dishes, including the famous Korean BBQ short ribs, I was sorted as I had my Son and his friends for a holiday treat. I could not ask for more, Kids were so happy, they has too many sweets, they were so full by the time we finish eating about 3pm, great value for money.

They offer a very decent offer per person basis, which cook yourself BBQ, which is what I had last time I was here about 2 years ago also, on a winter evening, which was a great outdoor cooking/seating/dining experience with Friends. Try it for yourself, and you will never forget when you're in wonderful company.

We were craving for korean bbq for a time now and yesterday while i was “innocently-searching” for restaurants in google serving korean cuisine, accidently found this. I immediately talked my boyfriend through it. The place was nice and quite romantic as we were seated outside. The staff were friendly and always smiles. The food was amazing and we really had the feel that we are in korea. We are very full and had to order tea after.😊 I highly recommend that you go for bbq nights to enjoy a sumptuous meal worth of its price.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 RustyHead

Fun place to invite a group of friends to. Located in sheikh zayed road it was a little hard to find but worth looking for.
We had the unlimited korean bbq for 139 dhs per person.👌🏼pretty good deal.
Also ordered the bibimbap but wouldn’t recommend it.
The staff were really friendly and made sure everything was on point.

Sobahn is always our go to place when we're craving for some korean bbq or samgyeupsal. Great restaurant ambience, staff and food. Quite pricey but it's worth it if you'll get to eat unlimited beef, chicken and side dishes for AED 139 including unlimited soft drinks and ice cream fo dessert.

Being a foodie, I am always in search of good restaurants and deals. Discovered this place accidentally searching for korean bbq places. So the first time we visited during the buffet offer which is eat-all-you-can korean bbq for 139 AED which was amazing. They have a good selection of meats especially beef. Our favorite was the galbi and the huge rib-eye beef cut which was also eat-all-you-can. I also love their kimchi salad. The price includes starters, salad, dessert, and drinks. Definitely good value for money for how much they serve and how big their cuts are. The only annoying thing is that it’s not buffet style, and you have to call the waiters to replenish the dishes you want and their staff is not the friendliest. I would have rated 5 but removed points only for the poor service. I still recommend this place tho for korean bbq and meat lovers! You wont be disappointed. Definitely go for the eat-all-you-can offer. We have actually recommended this place to friends and we now eat here regularly.

This place is really a hidden gem. Korean food is one of our favorite cuisines, especially since my husband has been there and just cant seem to find something close to real Korean food. The all you can eat feature is the best. Definitely someplace you go when you have Korean food cravings and you're starving. The servers were attentive and kept the food coming. I love that its literally all you can eat everything, dessert included. The sushi was delicious and the starter salads and pretty much every side they brought out was delicious. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Dubai. May return this weekend!

A hidden restaurant which located at level 1 above the convenient store where is same row with Medcare hospital which facing sheikh sayed road.
First time here and I having the dinner buffet at 139aed which included unlimited bbq meat, starter, salad, drinks and desert.
The staff wasn't friendly and didn't bother to explain m, I have to keep on ask and ask, after order basically they will put the food on your table and have to cook it by our own.
The staff wasn't around , need me to keep on find them for cutlery, napkin. Really bad service.
Overall the food was good and tasty beside the desert and services.

Delicious . Simply delicious
We had the all you can eat Korean BBQ at aed 139 per person including soft drinks and were not disappointed. You start of with 2 types of salad and then the meat comes out for you to grill.
The selection of meats were great from Wagyu, Ribeye, rib, chicken and the delicious galbi (marinated in a sweet sauce that caramelised on the open grill when cooking)
we also ordered the seafood pancake (a separate order) which was a bit of a let down (too thick and big shards of spring onion) there is an option of either miso or hot noodle soup (a spicy seafood broth with noodles, squid, mussels and mushroom) we all opted for the latter and it was tasty.
For dessert you could choose between fruit salad or ice cream (choco/vanilla/strawberry) we all took the ice cream which had ice crystals and was probably stored at an incorrect temperature.
I would have given a 5 rating but went down cos of the pancake and ice cream. The staff are really friendly and service is great.
The restaurant closes at 10:30 so my word of advice is to go and have an early dinner so you can enjoy grilling the meat and eat at a leisurely pace.

If you're looking to have an amazing Korean barbecue experience for only AED 139 per head on Thursdays for an All You Can Eat deal, Sobahn is definitely where you should go👌🏼The meat is fresh and it's all marinated beforehand in delicious sauces 😍They also have outdoor seating so you can enjoy the view while you enjoy your meal 🥘 The waitstaff is so friendly and the atmosphere is so peaceful and calm, which lets you enjoy your food to the fullest 🍴If you want to enjoy your meal in private, they have a separate area where you can book a table beforehand for a private meal 🗣❌
I'd recommend you try :-LA galbi in your main course-Red bean ice cream and-Mochi ice cream for dessert 🍨

As many of you must know by now, Korean food is one of my favorite cuisines and this has to be in my topten list of Korean Barbeques.
We(me n my friend ) feasted on SO much meat. Prolly ingested 4 cows haha 😂
Sobahn had an offen of all you can eat for dhs139 with unlimited drinks and all you can eat dhs159 with unlimited sushi
You guys should go for the dhs139 one as the sushi was pretty average!

you guys MUST have the LA galbi and chicken galbi, they were our topchoice 😍😍 the meat was so tender and juicy that when you bite into it , you'd be in heaven... La galbi had the traditional korean sweetness to it and it was very well marinated!
The cultural ambience allowed us to truly soak up the essence of Korea and the waiters were really friendly as well. I love everything about sobahn
It was a gratifying experience and I'll DEFINITELY come again.

The best korean bbq restaurant in the entire UAE!!! I've been to South Korea and I know how authentic korean food taste like, and i must say their food taste no different than the ones i've had in korea. The price of unlimited bbq is unbelievable at 139aed! I just wish they will put up a buffet station even on weekdays. I went on a Thursday, they just served all the meat and other food we wanted to have on our table. Nevertheless, it was a perfect bbq night. hands down to the quality and cuts of meat! 😊

Sobahn has been my nice secret discovery for a while now. That is until I bumped into a bunch of my Asian friends who, it turned out, also knew about this place but preferred to keep it a secret for themselves! So, yes, it is good. Food is good, maybe not extremely authentic as it happens in Korea, but still good. The tasters spread that you are served with your order is large and taste of the dishes is nice and delivers required variety to tease all of your taste buds.
After tasting it on many occasions I would say that Korean food is better than Japanese there but only if I get very very picky.
Every time I go to eat I find the service attentive and caring, no complaints there.
I am yet to try their Friday brunch but somehow I have no concerns that everything will be at the proper level.

once you are in Sobahn, you will notice a strong smell of "hot pot" cooking which can be overwhelming ...
we ordered the Korean set meal with bibimbap and the short ribs. the kimchi set was very nice.. the soup as well,but the bibimbap had a bitter taste... as for the service, and due to the layout, you cannot find the waiters when you need them... you have to wait for them until they pass by...

This restaurant is basically just beside our office so off we celebrate payday with the colleagues! The lunch set (AED 69) will give a taste of their Chinese / Japanese / Korean basics. Most of us ordered the Korean lunch set. The Korean appetizers alone feel like a meal already.  I chose the pricier AED 80 Japanese Bento over the Japanese Lunch Set (AED 69) and boy, I was glad I made the right call. I felt so sated and satisfied! It was good service, ambiance was soft and muted, there was no crowd on a Thursday early afternoon. The servings did not disappoint and taste was just right. Worth the splurge.

I could say that if you like Korean food, then this place is def worth a visit. Imagine unlimited bulgogi, galbi and kimchi for AED 109 (Fri/Sat brunch)! I actually concentrated on these three dishes but was of course tempted to try their Japanese section where they have sushi, sashimi and tempura. They also have Thai dishes like pad thai, prawn curry, prawn&papaya salad.

Everything was delicious and the only disappointment was we could not eat more as we were all too stuffed! Will definitely go back and bring friends soon!

Sided with a lovely Korean/asian supermarket you step in to a lobby then go upstairs to the restaurant. The place seems authentic with not the fanciest of interiors. They gave us an arabic waiter because we were emarati I guess that didn't know some korean dishes i was asking about and was not fully informed about the different things in the menu. He kept pushing us for the special bbq beef offer which was 139 dhs a person with unlimited selection of steak cuts. We went with it and ordered a side of fried Korean dumplings. The dumplings came as a started and were really good! Then the beef came and we started grilling, the cuts were fresh and tasty especially the marinated rib. wasn't a big of the noodles would have preferred rice with my beef personally. You could have extra beef of your choosing until you are full which is great ! Overall really fun experience and would come again if I was around.

This is our second time in Sobahn and we are still very much impressed with the food, the ambience, and the service from the very friendly and accommodating staff.

We availed of their EAT ALL YOU CAN BBQ NIGHT (@139AED) and it was so worth it! The meats were fresh and we love the cuts as well. They served as rib meat, wagyu, chicken and we enjoyed grilling it to our preference. We also had bulgogi and the portion was huge, good for two people. My daughter had two platters of their sushi and she said it was really yummy.

For the price of 139AED - unlimited food and drinks and even ice cream and fruits, we highly recommend this joint especially for carnivores like us. Love Sobahn! 😋 😋 😋👍👍👍

This place is a near weekly favourite of mine. My partner and I enjoy it and my partner's 12 year is a huge fan! And has the LA galbi on every visit!

If you enjoy meat, go ahead and do the bbq. Delicious, lovely fresh cuts. But have found that the chicken is over marinated but it really won't dissapoint. I love it! Or enjoy the brunch at the weekends. Munch down on a whole mix including freshly made sushi by their sushi chefs.

The team that work here are wonderfully helpful to. If they are not serving what our 12year old would like they will go ahead and try to accommodate it anyway!

Would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Even my Korean friends recommend this place as the 'best Korean in dubai', KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL JOB SOBHAN!

The weekend buffet at Sobahn is like the Top of the Pops of Asian food - there are crowd pleasers from Thailand, Japan, some Chinese and of course Korea, where Sobahn has its roots. KOREAN: The Galbi beef short rib slices are absolutely amazing - worth going there for on their own but then you also have the Beef Bulgogi and grilled Rib Eye Steak slices making up the Beef-Fest corner. The Kimchi selection is very good. In fact everything Korean is very good. Very! JAPANESE: There's a live Sushi section at Sobahn which serves decent (not great) Sushi. On the plus side, smile and ask nice enough and the chef will make you a roll or two of your favourite Sushi in minutes. THAI: I always open with the Thai salad selection - Seafood , Glass Noodle , Mince Chicken and Papaya salads, each yummier than the other. For the mains there's usually a red curry with something and a Pad Thai which isn't the best I've had in Dubai but not bad nonetheless. I know there are deserts but have never made it that far...in fact, I'm usually (over) stuffed from the Korean beef corner. At AED99 the weekend buffet is excellent value. Service is all-smiles and quick. This place is very suitable for families - there's something for everyone. Highly recommended.

the mean reason for us to come and come agin is food quality and good price. also the fact that most customer are looking like either japanese or korean is really make you feeling you are in right place for good food

Fridays (lunch dinner) Saturday (lunch) buffet. Not sure about the lunch buffet, but went for the dinner buffet and very good selection. All you can eat korean bbq beef.
Generally there's some sushi (nothing great but ok), sums up the Japanese selection; Thai food and Korean food.
AED 109 if I weren't mistaken; which I think is fair considering the selection of food.

Had dinner a few times (non buffet), having the Korean steamboat and BBQ. > Decent.

Its not a typical Korean restaurant because it also does some good Japanese dishes but it's sure a good one. The food seems authentic and the service is really good, and always with a smile. The menu is pretty good with a lot of variety and the prices seem fair for what you get. We have tried their Beef & Mushroom Jun Gol (super thin sliced beef with a variety of mushrroms and veggies in a hot pot) and it was a wonderful treat (we shared it for three and it was perfect!!). Their traditional BibinBap was also very good.

The Friday all you can eat brunch for 99aed is amazing with 99 items on offer. The sushi is top class as are some of the korean dishes. A few western dishes are so-so but desserts are fantastic.

Update: October 2014
We have been back quite a few times, specially for the Friday brunch, and we really wish that the management would bring some change to the spread. It is the same week in, week out, month after month, year after year. The spread is really good, but why forget that for regular customers – variety would be the spice of life.

They offer quality good food but they don't offer classical/traditional Korean foods, rather they have somewhat westernized the Far East foods, I'm not speaking about dishes looks, rather the taste!
Nonetheless I highly recommend them :)

Great restaurant. Definitely ranks as our favourite Korean restaurant right now. The grills cooked at our table by helpful and friendly staff

The best item in my opinion is the marinated rib eye cooked on the table which is complemented by the salt and sesame dips presented with the dish.

All in all, an outstanding restaurant - Parking is a little lacking and location awkward to get to but it is worth trekking there if you're looking for some great Korean style food.

OH. Emm. Gee.
Like Japanese food? Like Korean food? Got 100-120 Dhs for a meal? Go here.
This is an absolutely fantastic restaurant that has great ambiance and certainly some of the best concoction of dishes I have seen in a long time. From yummy Man-do to California Maki roll to Chicken Dduk Galbi to BiBimBap to red bean ice cream , tempura ice cream, green tea ice-cream, Tempura Udon soup, Bulgogi and every item of the Banchan (or side dishes that accompanies the main Korean dish) is just fabulous. Every dish is greatly flavourful and smooth. Service is immaculate and pleasant and extremely speedy.
We were just sipping our water after ordering starters and our starters showed up, halfway munching our yummy Man-do's, our main courses showed up!
Great location, below Medcare hospital just after Safa Park on Shaikh Zayed Road, this is one gorgeous restaurant on the first floor of that building.
Even though a bit pricey, it would be an impressive for a great date or an exotic family dinner out. It was nice to see more Korean and Japanese nationals enjoying their homely food, than other expats.
Even on a Friday it was not very crowded, which was great since all of us could find seats quickly as soon as we arrived.
Very happy with the whole experience, and I definitely recommend the Tempura ice cream and beef Man-do (steamed and fried dumplings).
I look forward to going again and trying out a whole new set of dishes soon. Well done Sobahn, you win :)
