Incredible, authentic, high-quality Korean BBQ. We adore this place and have dined here a couple of times now, and each time I leave, I am satisfied but depressed knowing it will be a while before I go back again! 🤣
If you've ever been curious about Korean cuisine just take the plunge and book yourself a table (crucial to pre-book as whilst they do accept walk ins, it is an intimate restaurant, only capable of holding around 30 people across 5/6 tables so it fills up quick) the food is superb and my words can't do justice to the flavours and textures you'll get to experience. A few notable entries are tteokbokki, the Bulgogi beef, and the crispy chicken (any flavour choice is a good one)
If for some reason you are still reading this, just go and book a table already, you won't regret it.

Popped in here just by chance, was trying to see a menu outside but a customer outside vaping heard us deciding on whether to go in and mentioned how good the food was. Sold!
Really pleased with everything we ordered, ended up ordering more after we’d had our main because we just wanted to try so much more! Really unexpected having to cook the meat yourself but also means we could cook beef how we like it. Was nice to experience something new.
As for comments about the restaurant in other posts, it’s a top floor restaurant in an old York building. We thought it was fine, snug and intimate.
Staff were so attentive and the food was great!
Our first experience eating Korean food and we weren’t disappointed!
Maybe have a menu outside so people can see the range of food you offer :)

First time trying Korean food, very tasty, had a go at cooking it at the table, enjoyed it but not sure if I would do that again, the other dishes we had were lovely so would have prepared dishes next time.

Was visiting York for the weekend with my significant other and wanted to show her something different to what she's used too.
Staff were very welcoming on Friday the 21st of January and the atmosphere of the restaurant felt like I was just dining out in someone's dining room which I loved. Much more relaxing than the usual restaurant dining experience. You almost feel at home here.
Highly recommend visiting for an evening meal or date night and be sure to book a reservation!
I highly recommend you also try the honey butter chicken. We had to fight over the final piece!
If I'm ever heading back to York, I will be heading back for more, no questions asked.

Delicious food, the right amount of spice for us. The food tasted very authentic, the stew looked a little oily from what I’m used too. But overall the food was fabulous and would recommend this little gem in York.

Absolutely fantastic! My mum booked here for my birthday lunch as a suprise, and I wasn't disappointed. The laid-back service and atmosphere was lovely. But the food was amazing, definitely worth a visit. I know we will definitely be going back again!

Found this restaurant by chance before my trip to York. The food was amazing, the chapjae was my personal favourite! The service was friendly and the atmosphere had a nice homely feel, it was like visiting an old friend. Can't wait to eat here again when I visit York next time. :) xxx

Mixed feelings here....
Not the dining experience i was expecting. The restaurant is dated and in places a little grubby. Absolutely nothing wrong with the food but it was no better than a local takeaway. Service and staff were very good. The final bill didn't reflect the the overall dining experience. No rush to go back but wouldn't avoid it.

Oshibi serves really lovely food that seems very authentic (although I can't say I have been to Korea!). The team that run it are always lovely and chatty and the ability to barbecue on the table adds some fun to your visit. Personally the chef prepared chicken dish (pictured) is my favourite! The restaurant could be easily missed being down a side street off Fossgate, so just head towards the guitar shop when you see the Tapas restaurant and it's on your left!

Such tasty food. Incredibly well priced with very generous portions. Very friendly staff.

The most friendly Korean restaurant I have been to. They wish to help you feel welcome, enjoy your food and understand a new experience without being over bearing. The food was lovely and they have a great choice. Lovely atmosphere. Just noisy from the grilling but this is to be expected from a Korean restaurant. Would recommend and will be going again the next time I'm in York.

The food was amazing (especially Japchae with Tofu and the Hotteok). They also had lots of vegan options available. The staff were lovely and welcoming. 100% would recommend and definitely will be coming back.

We had Korean BBQ washed down with some Soju and Patbingsu traditional shave ice dessert . Everything was scrumptious and well presented. I definitely recommend

Very delicious Korean food and very diverse in their menu as well. The restaurant is warm and super comfortable to dine in. And the staff are quick, friendly and helpful.

Didn’t go for the bbq as it seemed a little much to try and get 6 people around the little griddle. The friend chicken was great and a massive portion. Fried rice wasn’t my style but everything else was great.
Lauren Thompson
everything was unbelievable - the service was warm and welcoming, the food was genuinely incredible - the bibimbap was second only to the kimchi which was so good i had to get some to take home. the capacity is small so i would definitely book ahead of time but it is so so so worth it

Happened to visit by chance. So glad we did. The food is amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone. Probably the best service I’ve had in York. Would give more stars if I could!
