I love korean food. My friend took me here last year and I had an awesome time. They gave you a bunch of side dishes and I was kinda full eating them before our main our came out. I had bbq ribs and it was yummy! The price was expensive here though. I would say the service is not all great but the food is definitely something you want to try on. Maybe I'll come back here again next time. It is authentic food but I wish the waiters can come to you quicker when you ring the bell =]
Pros: nice environment
Cons: slow waiter

This is a very authentic Korean Restaurant, so for those expecting to get treated like Johnson County royalty, they need to get over themselves. Bulgogi, Jaeyuk Boggum, Kim-Chi are all excellent as well as the other fare. I have a group of 12 from work that goes and eats there, with usually 7-8 in attendence at one time. Their lunch box specials are just the right amount for a great price. You walk out feeling mildly full but your taste buds have been given so many treats.
Pros: Great food for a great price
Cons: Not your usual gabby American servers

I found this place via internet and took my mom there (she's from Seoul). They gave us directions via phone. The food was great!
Since we were eating Kalbi (GREAT beef ribs,) and Cornish game hen stuffed chestnut, date and rice with ginseng soup, a spicy fish and tofu soup with ALOT of fish eggs/cavier, and a seafood pancake dish (shrimp and calamari) we found the prices reasonable. We actually ended up taking a lot of our order home as we got almost full on the side dishes alone (lettuce and a spicy sauce to make a rice wrap, bean sprout mixture, fried egg rolled (not egg roll), and more. They even gave us more of one side dish that is my favorite!
We told them about the poor reviewer who only got one side dish. He must have ordered the 'box/lunch special.' It comes with only one side dish. Another lunch order comes with 4 side dishes and if you order dinner it comes with six side dishes!
We ordered dinner! Maybe it helped that Mom is Korean, but I am not. They were helpful with directions b/c the restaurant is not noticable from Mapquest directions. They were patient when we couldn't make up our minds, and when we waved for their attention we got it and what we needed such as more rice and more cold barley tea.
My Korean mom said the food was a good as Korea. I know the food was as good as any I have eaten such as Chicago and New York City Korean restaurants. (Actually, it was better than what I had in NYC).
My mom hopes I get the job I interviewed for in KC (why I was there; she came along b/c my next stop was to see her grandkids). She wants to be able to visit me and eat there often!!! And to take MY Korean Grandmother there to eat next time!!!
I highly reccommend it. If it's your first time eat the Kalbi! Even my Iowa farmer dad loves that and this place did an EXCEPTIONAL job of it!
Pros: Clean nice and open, great food
Cons: won't see the restaurant from mapquest directions, on the back side of the building when using Mapquest

Choga's located at 103rd and Metcalf, look around and there's also another Korean resturant across the intersection named Rainbow( its more of a lunch place) and there's an Oriental SUPER market runned by Koreans.
Choga though is a good evening place to go with friends and family, definetly not by yourself, since the service can be really neglectful at times. The service can be depressing but you just need to become very aggressive then. The food can be a bit greasy but overall we're thankful to have Choga here.

The food tasted good, but the quantity served for the OUTRAGEOUS prices at lunch was a highway robbery! And the service was the worst I have ever experienced. The waiter served us only one kind of kimchee (the cheap cabbage kind) when we could see that he was serving varieties of kimchee at other tables with their meals. I asked the neighboring tables if they were paying more for the extra varieties of kimchee and they said that those came with the meals. I know korean food quite well because I had a couple of good korean friends and I know and like the different varieties of kimchee. I am a Bangladeshi American and I noticed the waiter's attitude towards us was clearly different from his attitude towards the white and korean patrons. I was a waiter while going to college so I know how a waiter could be frazzled when it gets busy, but this guy was just being a bigotted A**H****! I WILL NEVER GO BACK AND WILL STOP EVERYONE I KNOW FROM GOING THERE TOO!
Pros: Good Food
Cons: Too Expensive for the Quantity, Worst Service, Bigotted Wait Staff

As another reviewer wrote: It is not american. Not at all. Not stylish. Not friendly. BUT (and there's a big BUT): It is really korean. We were the onle western people in there and felt like being in Asia. The food was very tasty - even though we weren't quite sure about what we were really eating sometimes. Try the Korean BBQ! But do not BBQ yourself - someone will come to your table and do it in front of you and serve you. Have fun!

This was my first time trying korean and I would have to say that I found the whole experience very interesting. There were many flavors that I was not familiar with but found to be fairly tasty. No matter what entree you order it is accompnied by the traditional korean sides, ranging from a cold omelte roll, to very spicy diakon radish root. This is a cousine that any good adventuresome diner should try!
Pros: Something new

Traditional and contemporary dishes meet at Choga Korean Restaurant. The bright lighting creates a somewhat more than average setting. On any given visit you can find families of Koreans and Americans enjoying the food alike. The quiet evenings give you a chance to have a peaceful dinner after a long day. My dish: Roast beef.

I was living in Korea for 2 months. The food they serve is real Korean food that means, very spicy and none-Americanlized. In the night, they offer BBQ, you can BBQ in the restaurant right on your table, they call it Karbi. It's very good if you have a group of friend and love to be noisy and explore some new culture thing. Very declicious food.
