    I have been a regular customer since the restaurant opened. Overtime, I have observed a reduction in portion size and quality of selected meats. Also, there’s been a shift from salad and sides delivered to the table to a self serve buffet style. Which could be trying to reduce food waste. Overall, it’s still a great restaurant. I just hope they don’t let there food standards drop further.

    This is an excellent example of KBBQ done extremely well. There was a very attentive but not overbearing staff who were quick and efficient, and also happy to show you the ropes should you need it. Although we also got the mushroom plate, the set menu for two was more than enough for two people, and the quality of both the meat and accompanying salad/side dishes was top notch. Great kimchi, too. Will definitely be visiting again!

    Not much choice of meat, way too fat. The floor is very slippery and my kids fell off twice. No staff even come to ask and just pretend nothing happened. No recommendation to anyone.

    I took my friends who visited from Melbourne as a treat at Joa. We all love the food but side dishes are way less than that I've been to here last time. I hope to get more variety of side dishes for BBQ.

    Our first time visit to JoA Korean BBQ was above expectations with a nice welcome and assistance using the BBQ and an explanation of meats and dishes that would be good to try.
