“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.“

“Visited for the first time yesterday to have the kimbap and it was delicious! I'll be back for more.“

“Love gopchang on fire in Doraville!!! The manager always took care of our grill and he did so professional. The flavor is amazing, I can’t complain. It is wayyy better than the other place in Duluth (I didn’t like the way they grill) Best gopchang in Atlanta“

“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!“

“Easily the best K-BBQ I’ve had in atlanta. So memorable. The place was tragically empty when we entered, and we talked to the owner and she was talking about how hard of a year it’s been. Our kimchi pancake was fantastic, and when the actual meat came out it got so much better. The owner showed us traditional ways to eat and we had amazing conversations with her. The food was fantastic as well. Easily a return and please visit if you can! Help them out!!“

“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.“

“Doraville’s best kept secret. Best Korean place we’ve tried all across Atlanta, Alabama and Mississippi. Food is made to order. There’s primarily 1 server taking care of everyone, so be prepared to wait and be patient but it will be so worth it. Even banchan came out one by one out the kitchen.“

“My husband and I had an early Valentine's Day dinner her last evening. We absolutely loved it. Vicky and Nick were pleasant and just down right inviting. The meal was delicious. The atmosphere is quiet and romantic. We will come again and next time we'll bring friends.“

“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.“

“I tried this place by chance because the burger spot I originally wanted to go to was closed. The guy there was really nice and explained the situation to me, then recommended trying this Korean place next door. I’m glad we took his suggestion.

We ordered the crispy chicken rice and a taco plate with beef, shrimp, and crispy chicken tacos. Each dish came with a choice of two sides, and we picked fried dumplings, soup, and salads.

My kids absolutely loved the dumplings. They reminded me of the kind of dumplings I used to eat as a snack when I was little.

The sauce used for both the crispy chicken rice and the crispy chicken tacos was the same gochujang-based yangnyeom sauce — sweet, slightly tangy, and not spicy. It’s the classic Korean fried chicken sauce, and both of my kids loved it. The brown rice that came with the chicken was also perfectly cooked.

The soup side dish was surprisingly good too. It had real ingredients like mushrooms and felt much more homemade than the typical miso soup you get at many Japanese restaurants.

I also really enjoyed the bulgogi taco. The bulgogi was prepared in a Korean style, though slightly sweeter than usual, which actually worked really well in taco form. The fried shrimp was also nicely done.

The person at the register was very kind and immediately offered me a paper copy of the menu, which I appreciated since I have poor vision and would’ve struggled to read the menu on the wall.“

“Great Place to take the family/Date/friends. I found them when I seen the ad they have running in the back of my Kroger Register Receipt. I go there more frequently thank to the ability to save a few bucks and pick up another cocktail. Thanks for coupons Kpot. Love them“

“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.“

“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!“

“This place is crazy good. Really appreciate the quality beef and incorporated flavors in the rice bowl I got.

I’m Asian, I love egg, so why not? Added it as an add-on. I was so hungry and I wanted the dumplings and garlic fries and ramen….

Not cheap, and it’s really disappointing when you get disappointed after a not cheap meal - not the case here. Really really yummy food.

Thank you, chefs, for the love you put into the food you prepare!“

“loved!!! everything was such amazing quality, the meats, side dishes, all the above! it was clean, the staff was super friendly and so sweet. definitely will be back! I love coming to places that maintain a clean, welcoming environment 🤍“

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

“Very good, got the steak bowl with jasmine rice, broccoli, avocado, a jammy egg, and their sweet Korean BBQ sauce. The bowl isn’t the biggest but honestly for a lunch item, it is more than enough. The food is very flavorful and the meat was cooked perfectly.“

“Perfectly crispy juicy chicken“

“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“

“OMG! Oh K-Dog Doraville was more than okay they are AMAZING! I just so happened to be in the area and wanted a Koren corn dog. WOW! Me and my twin girls discovered a whole new world. This hidden gem has many treasures inside.
Upside:
As we explored the market we saw many TikTok items we wanted to try.. yummy 😋
Downside:
The only negative is the smell, once you get over the fresh meat, seafood smell, you will have an awesome time.
(Live Fish, lobster, crab)
I love the diversity of people shopping 🛍
If you find yourself near this area
(or Saint Emory Hospital it's about 15 mins from there).

I highly recommend Oh K-Dog Doraville. This outlet also have many other restaurants to try, so many food choices all in one magnificent location. 👍🏾👍🏾
We had this delicious Koren-style corn dogs; Flamin hot Cheetos, Potato and the Fruity Pebbles. The Tanghulu was amazing as well, delicious dessert. 😋“

“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!“

“Everything here from the service to the food is absolutely amazing. You simply can’t go wrong. If you want the best experience, ask the handsome gentleman who may own the place (the master) to do what he wants. There’s a special magic. TLDR: trust the master.“

“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!!“

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

“Don’t sleep on the spring rolls! Believe me, you’ll wish you bought more. This place has never failed me. Served fresh, and ready to be devoured. Yep, definitely one of my GO-TO spots when I’m in the area. Plenty of seating, great views sitting as the corner restaurant on such a beautiful street.“

“I love this place! Katherine was very cool in helping me with my order! The spicy pork gimbap is delicious! Especially dipped in that delicious gochujang sauce! The crab salad, garlic cheese crab bread, and kimchi fried rice bowl are all delicious! I am definitely bringing friends and eating here again!“

“The food is good. The service not so good. We were in town for a show and wanted lamb skewer. The server was the only person working the floor. She seemed more interested in her Ipad show. The food is very good. When she brought the food out she left. There were three of us and no extra plates. Not sure how you share without plates. We ate dinner and lunch the next day and had to ask for plates again! We spent a lot of money. She did not say thanks or bye. We speak english, chinese, and korean so there was no communication problem, she just acted like she did not want to be there. Its a shame because the food is good.“

“Staff is accommodating and kind. Lots of fun for groups. They have a lot of songs from a large variety of artists and their pricing is pretty reasonable honestly. My friends and I always choose Happy Karaoke when we want to do karaoke and I don't think that'll change anytime soon.“

“Our family has been coming here for years and the food & service has been consistently amazing! I always see the same ladies and they’ve always been so friendly & kind. Their black bean noodles and spicy seafood noodle soup is hard to beat. This is our go to spot everytime!“

“When we visit son away at school, this is his go to spot for our lunch.

Our favs are spicy garlic, honey garlic, and plain pieces. Can't get enough of free pickled radish. A nice cool clean taste to counterbalance spicy garlic. Very tasty. Portions are more than single serve. Expect a tasty mess, need napkins...

Everything in ATL is kioski order. Bring your card to tap. I'll never get used to ATL prices, but it is worth the trip and price as an occasional treat for us.

Atmosphere is plain but very clean. Caters to uni students' fast pace.“
