"Went here last night at the tail end of an office Christmas party and we stumbled (quite literally inside having been turned away at a restaurant next door. It was past closing though their OPEN sign was still on. Anyway! Although Oppa was just about to close, they took us in, a group of 6, and stayed open until we finished. When I realized we were in a Korean restaurant, I was so excited; I've been searching for a good Korean restaurant in the midlands. My colleagues were much less so as they had never had Korean food and were unfamiliar with everything on the menu. I ordered for everyone and despite some of them being difficult one colleague kept asking for samosas, aah! the service was faultless. Staff were super attentive and helpful, patient, friendly, good fun, and extremely accommodating. Just perfect! And they stayed open for us quite late without rushing us out, what more can you ask for? Ok, so the food. It was SO so good and I'm already planning to go back. The kimchi was bang on how I like (a big deciding factor for me strongly fermented/pickled and spicy, and fresh. All the bulgogi (marinated meat , dolsot bibimbap (sizzling rice bowl , jjigae (stew/ramen style soups , seafood and extras that were served tasted just like I had hoped they would. Presentation was great everything looked properly appetizing and vegetables and seafood, etc were all clean and fresh. I was too busy stuffing my face and enjoying the moment and company to take photos, but the few photos I've seen on here are true to life. Other things people might be interested in: This restaurant is kitted out to cook Korean BBQ at/in/on your table. It is spacious, with lots of tables and room to move around. Decor is tasteful and minimal. It is clean and indeed I was warned by staff when going upstairs to the ladies' to be careful as the stairs and the toilets had all just been cleaned (and clean they were! . If you're looking for good Korean food, look no further. If you're looking to try Korean food for the first time, this is a great place to start. Go for it! Might see you there, if I can help it :D [I've copied this review over from where I originally posted it because this listing and the one for OPPA in Leicester are the same exact restaurant, FYI]"

The Korean food at this restaurant is delicious, authentic, and incredibly affordable. They offer a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan options. One standout dish from their extensive menu is the kimchi pancakes.

I always wanted to try a korean bbq. I went with my best friend and we loved it, the food is amazing, the service is amazing the location as well. The chicken bbq is to die for. If you want a good lunch or dinner with your family or friends, this is the place. I highly recommend this place.

This was our first experience dining at a Korean restaurant, so we sought the waitress's recommendations on what to order. She was very helpful in suggesting the lunchtime fixed menu, which turned out to be more than enough for us. We enjoyed miso soup and bibimbap with chicken, both of which were absolutely delicious.

unbelievable. It's amazing. my business partner and I came here with a pure chance as we were in leicester. I have never had food that tastes this good before, very high quality and delicious ingredients. it is regrettable that I live 200 miles away, as it means that I cannot visit oppa as often as I want. I would come here every week if I could. I hope that I will leave this evaluation, I can help convince people to try them!
