    Incredible service and even more incredible food. The combo had a delicious assortment of meats and they were accompanied with house-made banchan and a wide variety of sides. The dessert at the end was truly the icing on the cake, pun intended. Our server was incredibly attentive and the modern atmosphere resulted in a truly fun, flavorful and enjoyable time. On top of that, the portion sizes are generous. I will definitely be back!

    ⭐ My Rating System: 5 ⭐ — I’ll definitely be back 4 ⭐ — Might come back 3 ⭐ — Probably not 2 ⭐ — Won’t return 1 ⭐ — Don’t recommend We googled the nearest Korean restaurant near us and found this one. They seem to specialize in Korean bbq. We ordered only 2 items from the kitchen. Food was decent. May have to come back for bbq. Our server was super friendly.

    Let me start from this: there is no way you are actually rated at 4.7/5. I’ve never been to a kbbq spot this BAD. Please, the owner doesn’t even believe this is BARBECUE! Arrive at night bit later than 8pm, waited a long time to be seated- there’s no servers at the front. Got two dinner AYCU, ordered soups and fried rice outside of AYCU menu, and then we start with three protein options as that’s their AYCU rule. The server constantly forgot our order, literally came back to us and asked if we added a side dish RIGHT AFTER we ordered more sided dishes. The size of their meat portions are small, it is okay since it’s AYCU but they make you wait A LONG TIME everytime you ask for more! Come on, there’s no customers in the restaurant and I’m sure your meats are prepared before hand, so tell me why I gotta wait 20 mins for new dishes to come out? Meat quality is okay, the taste is awful. The grill isn’t even as hot as my stove pan, there’s no way you call it a barbecue if the stove is struggling getting the meat COOKED. Ended up paying two AYCU and got 6 small portion of protein items, tasted so bad that we didn’t even touch the second round of protein(last three items). I wanted to finish the protein but then I told myself that I’m not here to SUFFER. Got full with fired rice and soup(the stuff we ordered outside of AYCU menu). Like seriously, if the owner doesn’t like people eating much proteins from AYCU and wants to keep higher margin rate, then don’t provide AYCU. Choosing a weak-heat stove and use your “strategy” to make your customers wait for more proteins is NOT okay. This is the worst Kbbq experience I’ve ever had in my 30 years of life as an Asian. And I’m sure even Koreans wouldn’t think this spot is okay. Sorry to say - but this restaurant is a shame to Korean culture. Argue with me if you really think this spot is good, I can instantly give you more than 3 restaurants in Atlanta who can do it much better with the same price. I would highly recommend you to try else where then come back and tell me you still think this place is “good”.

    I do dine in every now and then but grubhub most of the time while i’m at work for my coworkers and I. The food is absolutely delicious and the service never disappoints. However, it’s very upsetting to see it looks like they’ve cut costs on take out meals and that’s very upsetting. Instead of the high quality container with different pockets for sides so that everyone gets their own, I was given a brittle white foam container with some sides in little to go containers. Not everyone was able to get sides like we used to and it seemed like the quantity may have decreased. I am extremely upset by being disappointed by capitalism once again from a spot I always looked forward to ordering during my lunch break. I’m hoping this is just a doozy and they simply just ran out of containers. If not, I am extremely disappointed despite the great tasting food and awesome service.
