"For the Korean BBQ experience that’s most often portrayed on television, Hoban on Hennepin Avenue in Uptown is the place to go. Bring a group to take full advantage of the barbecue menu, which is fairly condensed but contains all the classics: pork loin marinated in a bright housemade pepper paste; thin slivers of calamari dredged in sesame seeds and gochujang; thick chunks of beef short rib marinated in rice wine and soy sauce; bright stalks of asparagus and meaty mushroom caps for a brief reprieve from the meat — all ready for self-service cooking on small gas grills built into each tabletop." - Julie Zhou
