45 Best Korean Restaurants near Decatur

“I love coming here. The food is absolutely amazing and delicious“

“I am in love with their mala chicken. I came here during the mid afternoon, so it was almost empty. Service was quick, and the place was quiet. They have two TVs on if you're the type who enjoys background noise or visuals.

I wish the mala chicken had more sauce because it was delicious. Because we had the rose tteotboki, it was a good combo with both. It wasn't dry and mostly breading luckily.

They have a happy hour everyday 2-5pm. So we got a beer pitcher which was a few dollars less. They only have 4? Beer pitcher options. I tried their ponce at night IPA, which was okay, not extremely bitter. They didn't allow samples so we took the gamble.“

“This place has the best food! Make sure to try the sodduk skewers and the creamy onion KFC! The kimchi jjigae (with the LA galbi combo) is really good, too, especially when it’s cold out!“

“A really good spot for date night. It's very casual, very clean and The vibes are good. I really appreciate all the gluten-free options and the fresh seafood and veg.

There are also non-seaf food options for those who prefer land fairing vittles“

“Wow is the food amazing you got to hit the shrimp. The burrito is massive the tacos are awesome. The chips and salsa are honestly mid but overall you cannot go wrong here. Honestly the manager could have been a little nicer but maybe having a bad day.“

“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.

“The food and service are ALWAYS phenomenal. It is a place that always feels like home no matter how long it has been since I've been to visit. Cha is always a gracious and kind host and makes everyone at the table feel like family. Leaving full of great food and memories is the norm for any visit here.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 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.“

“It was a bit tricky to find since it was tucked away in a corner of the building, but once we walked around the building, it was easy to spot. The food was authentic Korean cuisine, the kind that tasted like something your mom would make. 콩비지 was incredibly delicious and reminded me of my mom's cooking. There was a wide variety of dishes, and the fish and scallion pancakes were tasty. We ordered way too much food, making it a truly happy time.“

“First time there. Had a great experience!“

“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.“

“Food was Delish! We will be back!“

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

“Delicious food. Fun Atmosphere.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“Makimono has grown to be my one of my favorite restaurants in Atlanta. Last weekend I was in Atlanta visiting family and I went to Makimono twice. My favorite dish is the Makimono fried chicken. I also really love the tofu soups. Every roll I’ve tried is fantastic too.
The restaurant atmosphere is very relaxed and the staff is attentive and helpful.
My partner has some allergy restrictions and the staff was very helpful about what was available for her to eat. We can’t wait to go back.“

“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“

“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!“

“I love Korean Food and this did not disappoint! I ordered the Korean corn dog, Beef Bulgogi Kimbap and the Korean short ribs - and the flavor was so amazing and unique! The corn dog did not make it out of Lee +White, because I took one bite, and I instantly got that cheese pull that you see on social media, and needed a second and third bite! The Kimbap was served and it looked like a piece of artwork, and the taste, was even better! The short ribs, were tender, flavorful and worth ever single penny!

The staff is friendly, and helpful. They explain what types of sauces to use with that, and recommend what pairs well with your order. You can instantly tell that the owners care, and want you to receive true first class experience! They serve spirits and have a very diverse menu! I strongly recommend if you are ever at Lee + White that you stop by and give Okaay Korean Bistro a try! You won't be disappointed!“

“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.“

“Perfectly crispy juicy chicken“

“Best please for Baos in all of Atlanta!!! Always bring all my friends here never disappoint’s. Recommend all the different Baos they offer!!!“

“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 🏆“

“Was looking for a good Korean BBQ around the Dunwoody/Buckhead area. Stumbled upon Bene Korean BBQ. This restaurant is located in the Lindbergh/Buckhead area. I haven't been back to this area in about 10 years. It's changed so much. This restaurant is beautiful. The decor is luxurious and the bottles of soju above the bar is amazing. The side dishes were delicious and abundant. We ordered the Egg Soufflé, kimchi fried rice, crispy spicy/sweet wings, beef brisket and marinated beef short ribs. Everything was good, the marinated short ribs were a little too sweet for me and the spicy/sweet wings, were crispy, sauce had a hint of buffalo sauce flavor. They provide three dipping sauces (yuzu/soy based? Aioli of some type, pink salt). The restaurant was steady and the servers were trying their best to take care of all the dining patrons. I only wish the servers would ask if we needed fresh side dishes and more sauce for our dishes. Our server cooked our beef to perfection and kept our water glass filled. Prices are reasonable, I will definitely try the AYCE next time.“

“I LOVED the potato cheese corn dog! They rolled it in sugar which sounds off, but WOW it works! I dipped in their cheese mustard.
Ive had to stop myself from driving 40+ miles just to go get one 😂
My daughter had the fruity pebbles corn dog dipped in sweet chili sauce and thought it was delicious.“

“Went here for lunch with my teen and the food was delicious as recommended online by the reviews . Rita’s service was excellent and like mentioned the fried chicken chicken was 🔥 🔥🔥.will return again“

“The food is hands down delicious and piping hot to my liking! oh let's not forget about the seasoning on top of the fried chicken 😋 friendly people which I love!! will definitely be back!!“
