Oba Korean & Japanese Kitchen & Bar

Came with some relatives to enjoy a delicious meal and this place didn't let us down. Got a katsu curry bento box, which I greatly loved! The food was exquisite, and filled me and my relatives quite well. The matcha ice cream was very appetising, and the sushi starters were amazing! The food arrived on under 15 minutes. The drinks,mango mojito, were excellent and sweet. Staff were really welcoming, and very polite, holding the door for us to enter and leave. The atmosphere was relaxed, and there were no inconveniences with anything. There weren't many people, I was shocked how underrated this place was. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to visit. Absolutely a new favourite restaurant.

We had the most wonderful experience at Oba in Leeds, UK. We were celebrating my brother-in-law’s 60th birthday, and the entire team made it unforgettable. The service is truly outstanding. Lawson was incredibly attentive, Kunchun was warm and friendly, and Tony, the owner, could not be more generous. The food was absolutely delicious with great portions, and every dish was full of flavor. So many choices from Korean Bimbinbap to Japanese sushi and tonkarshu ramen. We all left happy, full, and already talking about when we’ll come back. Highly recommend Oba for any celebration or simply a fantastic meal out.

Interior is pretty and the location of the restaurant is good. However Service: was soso, most staff appear to be university students which isn’t a problem but they all seem quite stone cold and not very approachable especially the male servers. Food: we saw a seasonal 4 flavour chicken wing special so was excited to try it - we were incredibly disappointed, it was basically 8 wings, 2 of each flavour but based on my images they tasted quite similar except the for the mustard one, with random petals as garnish which was unnecessary. From what I remember this cost around £15-16 which was ludicrous. The nigiri was okay but the saviour of the meal was the Korean dishes, both the bibimbap and the pork belly bento were good but based on the experience and menu with the cost here I wouldn’t be visiting again.

OMG best restaurant ever! It was my son's birthday and he wanted to go for a meal somewhere nice last Saturday evening. He loves Ramen & I love Korean food, so we phoned up 2hrs in advance & were able to make a last minute reservation. I mentioned it was his birthday & he wanted ramen - they said that normally their ramen menu is only until 5pm but since it was a special occasion they'd make an exception for him. The lovely service only started there, when we arrived there were balloons & a birthday card with a voucher at the table. So sweet & considerate, especially with only 2hrs notice. The ground floor level looked busy but they'd still managed to squeeze us in. We ordered Kimchi fried rice, Bibimbap, Ramen & gyoza, Popcorn shrimp & very reasonably priced maki. Everything was absolutely delicious, freshly cooked & beautifully presented. I've eaten a lot of Korean food over 30 years & finally, a place in Leeds that matches what I've experienced in other parts of the world! The service was impeccable, very child friendly, thoughtful, quick & polite. The icing on the cake was the manager making an on the house mocktail for our son, stunning presentation & very tasty too. We look forward to returning soon, highly recommended!

The food was truly delicious, and there was plenty to share! The waitstaff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. I wish the space were larger to accommodate more guests. Overall, it was a delightful experience!
