Worst service
August 12, 2013

There was a party of 10-12 people and I could tell the server was busy with them. We waited for 5 minutes for menu to arrive. No water was serviced....I even saw other table asking for plates. The owner/manager was just sitting and didn't help with other customers. After waiting for 10 minutes, we just left. Worst service ever.

Not your Mother's Korean BBQ
July 10, 2013

We love Korean food, but have never had such delicious dishes. This is Korean fine dining. The chef does an amazing job with layers of flavor and texture. The prices are reasonable and the cuisine is approachable. Don't miss this gem in downtown!

Tasty and Light
July 04, 2013

It's not so easy to eat light in Canada, portions can be large, and if you want to taste an appetiser as well as an entree, you need to take care. We hardly ever get to dessert!
The mixed seafood tempura app was excellent, the entree courses of a vegetarian soup, and a pork based soup (sorry can't remember the... more

amazing food
April 01, 2013

We love going to Soban for dinner as it is to us, one of, if not the best restaurant in Kelowna, and it's extremely reasonably priced! For $21 or $23 we usually choose one of the dinner set meals, they are such good value and you get to try a variety of delicious things. The little free starter that they... more

Delicious lunch
March 30, 2013

We frequently go to Soban for the lunch special. It's $14 for kimchi, b-bop, and 4 korean savoury pancakes. We are vegetarian and it's no problem for them to accommodate our diet. The b-bop is rice with pickles, tofu (or meat) and veggies around the edges and egg on top. You can pick from two different sauces. It's delicious and... more

So delicious and unique
November 10, 2012

I wish I had found this restaurant sooner. The food is unique, delicious and healthy. I am vegetarian but my partner is not... there was ample choice for both of us. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious and the prices are very affordable. The service was excellent too! I will be back often.

I will be back next week.. A unique dinning experience..Everybody should try it.

Truly authentic experience
November 01, 2012

Cozy atmosphere, delicious and unique dishes made with love and tradition. We ordered three different dishes and were all impressed with clarity of taste!
We cook with spices and flavor and this little family restaurant is exceptional.
Very affordable. The chef stops by with a word or two - very nice touch!

Fabulous Meal
September 28, 2012

My husband and I were looking for some high quality ethnic food during our visit to Kelowna in August 2012. We found Soban and were thrilled with the dinner. We had the mixed sampler. The waitress was terrific at helping us make decisions about the meal and everything she suggested was great. The food was fresh, plentiful and well priced.... more

Healthy, delicious cousine
September 20, 2012

I got the sampler plate and it was so good! Especially the vegetarian Binday Tok (Mung Bean Pancake). It can be hard to find healthy places to eat out so I was super pleased to discover Soban! Really nice atmosphere as well! A new favourite!

Excellent Korean Bistro
September 16, 2012

Friendly service, quick and well presented food. Chef came out halfway through our lunch to make sure we were happy with the food. Had their "Soban Taco" and B-Bop (Bibimbop) and both were really good. Fresh ingredients, very tasty and good value for the money.

Outstanding
October 07, 2011

This is one of the best restaurants in town and yet not very expensive. A new restaurant that is pleasant and unassuming. The ingredients, preparation and personal attention are second to none. Try the Korean Bar-b-cue (Bulgogi) for a special experience - the highest quality beef, prepared exquisitely and cut into cubes for wrapping in a lettuce leaf with sauce,... more
