“You can really feel the pride in how this restaurant is run. The food is incredible especially the grilled meats and the staff go out of their way to make sure you have a great time.

“authentic delicious Korean“

“Food and service was absolutely amazing. Everything tasted very fresh and the portions are great for the price. I highly recommend their spicy tteokbokki with added ramen and cheese. Their bulgogi ramen, fried dumplings, as well as their sushi all tasted amazing and fresh. Definitely will be returning to try more dishes“

“I can hardly remember if I’ve visited this restaurant before, which means it’s either been a very long time or this was my first visit, recommended by a group of friends from an association. Regardless, this humble neighborhood restaurant left a strong impression. Once popular in the heart of Doraville's old Koreatown, this spot carries a sense of nostalgia and is truly a hidden gem with a rich history. While it may not boast extravagant decor, the quality of the food speaks volumes. I particularly enjoyed the generous variety of side dishes (반찬), which were thoughtfully prepared and delicious. The highlight of my meal was the fresh grilled sole fish (서대구이), perfectly cooked and accompanied by a hearty bowl of bean paste stew (된장찌개), both proudly recommended by the friendly and welcoming owner. Her genuine hospitality and attentive service added warmth to the dining experience, and it was heartwarming to see some of my friends recognize her from previous visits.

If you’re looking to experience authentic, homemade Korean cuisine in a modest yet charming setting that evokes memories of Korea's past, I highly recommend this restaurant. It’s a rare gem that preserves the flavors and traditions of old Korea, and I’ll definitely be returning to savor more of its offerings.“

“If you’re looking for KBBQ in this area this location of Iron Age is amazing. Be sure to ask for Elly as your server. She’s awesome and makes great conversation.“

“The Blossom Tree is one of my favorite places near school — I’ve eaten here several times, and it’s always great. The staff are really friendly and welcoming. The menu has a lot of variety, and every dish I’ve tried has been delicious. My favorites are the fish tacos and the crispy chicken curry — both are full of flavor and perfectly cooked. Definitely a nice spot for a quick meal or to hang out with friends after class!“

“I ordered the jokbal 족발 (braised pork trotter) and soft tofu stew 순두부 찌개. The jokbal was tender, flavorful, and came with all the right sides for wraps, while the soft tofu stew was hot, silky, and perfectly seasoned to enjoy with rice. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, just like food from back home🥰 The atmosphere was cozy, the service was kind, and overall it felt like a truly authentic Korean dining experience. I’ll definitely return👍“

“Hankook Taqueria is a fantastic spot for a unique and delicious meal. Their Korean-Mexican fusion tacos are a flavor explosion, with options like bulgogi beef and spicy beef that are just incredible. I always get the sesame fries they're a perfect sweet and salty side. The whole experience is fast, casual, and absolutely worth the visit.
I recommend.“

“I would consider us regulars, eating here 1-2x/month. A little disappointed this go around. We ordered the toppoki, bulgogi quesadilla, and the harue kimbap. The bulgogi quesadilla was labeled as a “limited time” item and was pretty good! The fries it came with were a little undercooked and lacked that the crispy crunch. Harue kimbap = solid. The toppoki was overcooked—the rice cakes and ramen (that we paid extra for) were too chewy/soggy.“

“Food was hot, fresh, and delicious. We had the beef bulgogi, bibimbap with beef and teriyaki, and the fried dumplings. Everything tasted amazing. The restaurant was clean abba we loved the small selection of Korean snacks!“

“Traditional Korean Food and Korean Barbecue. how many local Koreans and other Asians eating this restaurant. it is Korean owned and operated and when visiting you will feel like you are in South Korea.“

“I dropped in for a quick bite one Tuesday evening and was blown away with how fresh and the portion I received. I ordered the Bibimbap and it was served with small 5 bonchon sides! I fell in love with the seaweed side. In the end, I definitely needed a Togo box. The service was attentive and friendly. They served up a happy customer here l!“

“Decent fast food type Korean food. It looked clean, not an attractive place & kind of looks like it’s not in business if all you see are the 3-4 tables. Service was good & matter of fact. The lady does not speak a lot of English but did understand that my dumplings were still frozen in the middle when I told her. The kimbop was good. Bulgogi as well. The japchae definitely needed more sauce as it was almost tasteless.
But it was a nice amount of food & I’m not sorry I tried it on my trip to Atlanta. It beat another burger or fattier foods. Reasonable price.“

“Prompted to write a review immediately when I noticed the negative reviews people left regarding service, which should be considered outdated.

Friends and I came here on a Saturday while driving around John's Creek, craving authentic Korean food. We were surprised that it was almost empty at almost 6PM but were glad there'd be no wait. The menu wasn't very expansive, which is actually a good thing, imo, as it indicates they focus solely on dishes they know they are good at. I would have loved to try the jokbal, but my friends weren't feeling very adventurous, so we settled on the garlic bossam to share. We added on the rice balls (which is a mix of rice, seaweed, sesame oil and chopped radish) and ordered the donkatsu for my picky toddler niece.

The donkatsu was very crunchy and satisfied the toddler, to our surprise. The portion was enough for 2 adults to share, as it came with 2 pieces of pork (which we had to lie and say they were chicken). We did wish there was more sauce on the side, to balance out the dish. As for the bossam, flavor was great on the pork. We loved the banchan, which helped cut down on the fat from the pork. I'm not sure if the server forgot our lettuce leaves or if they don't automatically give them to you, but definitely ask for lettuce leaves! Definitely gotta wrap your meat! 😉

Also found it surprising that rice does not come with bossam and you have to order it as an add-on. That's pretty much the star deduction here. We spent under $80 (before tip) and it was enough food for 3 adults, 1 picky toddler and still took some tonkatsu home. As much as we love our garlic, it must be noted that 5 hours later, we were still breathing garlic, if that's something that matters to you.“

“First time there. Had a great experience!“

“Excellent restaurant! If you are interested in experience a meal that truly mimics healthy home-cooked Korean cuisine, this is the place!

This is not one of those places with huge fanfare and exorbitant overwhelming decorations, often with asymmetric balance of tasted. Rather, this is a modest place but with dedication and thoughts for the fundamentals of Korean home cuisine that you can feel from the manner of the owner and certainly taste it in the dishes she serves (mains and the sides) - no sugar (unlike many restaurants all around), no MSG, or any other artificial favorings - relying on natural flavors of quality ingredients. Even then, the subtle balance of complex tastes of various ingredients and of Korean cuisine is achieved, reminding of the comfort and care we felt from our own mom's cooking long ago.

This place is not one of those that has shallow business/value ethics, again unlike other places, where she seems very generous with amount of quality ingredients in the dishes! My dish was the black cod soup. It had about the same amount of fish as the black cod casserole (at 2x the price) we had at another local restaurant!

Really, the owner has a clear set of principles for cooking and life in general, truly reflected in every facet of her restaurant! Truly commendable person and place!

I/we will certainly return to try other dishes!“

“The food is delicious, every time we come here it feels like we’re eating a family cooked meal. The service is friendly as well, definitely recommend! Sometimes the cashier goes out of her way to accommodate our requests and she remembers our orders always! We love this place.“

“Food was Delish! We will be back!“

“I love the food here but the service is chaotic and it's disorganized. Has not stopped me from going there but it's frustrating to watch them scramble to try and figure out who ordered what. And then to see your food ready but the chaotic process means you'll get it in 10 minutes. But the food is great. Fix the chaotic process and I'd probably visit more.“

“Great food and atmosphere, excellent service Madison our server was awesome. Can’t wait to come back!“

“Brandon was fantastic! The food was delicious. very enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend.“

“My husband and I visited last night for the first time and it was fantastic! Our server Danielle was so friendly and helpful and made our overall experience 10/10! She was the best of the best! We will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely incredible cuisine...A wonderful atmosphere...Family owned and operated...A must goto place when traveling...“

“A great dining experience for Korean food. Great service and delicious food. Will be back.“

“I'm so glad I stumbled upon moonbowls! Everytime I order from them I am not disappointed. They stay open late so that's the best part. They have vegan options which is amazing. I love how each time I order I get a text asking how I liked my order and when I respond, they actually respond back. They truly care about their customers. And because its a warehouse kitchen so I always eat in the comforts of mĥn̈y home. The only down side is the small amount of beverages offered.“

“Dean has literally the best diverse menu at such a reasonable price in a 10 mile radius. If you're Korean definitely check it out. Food is always fresh and whenever I call to order he always recognizes who I am which is also a very nice touch to a personable service.
I have noticed some people upset over Food taking a while. It's not a fast food restaurant. They cook it to order so dont get so uppity unless you want raw food.“

“The best corndog I have ever eaten!! I love corn dogs but this was at a different level!! And the staff was super kind!! I had the Cheetos and cheese Beef corndog.. it was huge and tasted great!“

“Food was great! Love that you can get free barley tea up front. The portions were generous, I ended up taking some home. It made GREAT leftovers. We also ordered tteokbokki, but they seem to have forgotten it. To be honest, we didn’t notice that we didn’t receive it until the next day lol.“

“Always an absolutely amazing experience when visiting MUKJA! The last time I had Mukja was 2023, a year later the food was just as good as the day I discovered the place. Consistency in quality makes Mukja my goto chicken outlet in Atlanta“

“Japanese with a Korean flair. Great prices + great quality + _extremely_ great service. Surprisingly, they’ve been a “near-kept secret” in Atlanta for nearly 50 years. (Since 1970?)We’ve been eating here & picking up more-and-more regularly for only the past 3 years.“

“Makimono is easily one of my new favorite sushi spots in Atlanta. The food is fresh, the rolls are creative, and everything comes out fast. I loved the vibe — tucked inside Krog Street Market, it’s the perfect mix of chill and stylish. The staff was friendly and on top of everything, and the presentation of each dish was on point.“

“This establishment has the nicest team plus delicious food and parking around back. On my first visit, we arrived early when there was no crowd. My friend had just received her PhD so it was a low key celebration brunch. The crowd wasn't happening yet and the barista was bored. As we ate brunch, he appeared with shot glass sized samples of a certain tea drink for us to try. Then he returned later with a sample of creamy drink. Finally a coffee sample was served. We had a lovely chat and it was just such an authentic "small town" moment. The kind we use to have in Roswell 20+ years ago. Fast forward to this afternoon, my friend and I drop in for a birthday lunch and have a terrific meal. Surprise! The staff prepared a cute blueberry scone birthday snack on a heart-shaped dish. As we left, everyone wished a happy birthday to us. Honestly, it was so endearing. Great food. Nice people. 100% worth your time and money to go!“

“I had the opportunity to eat at Krave yesterday as a first timer. Excellent Korean restaurant!!!
Clean environment and efficient ordering/service. Food 🍱 quality was fresh - cooked to order. Highly recommended spot 💯👏🏽🐺.

Outside seating was perfect 🏆“
