ARI Korean BBQ & The Cakeshop

I had an absolutely incredible experience at this Korean BBQ restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuine. The food was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Every cut of meat was tender and well-marinated, and the variety of banchan (side dishes) was both generous and delicious. The grill was managed expertly, and the staff ensured everything was cooked to perfection. We especially loved the bulgogi and galbi—so juicy and packed with flavor! The atmosphere was lively but not too loud, making it perfect for conversation and a fun dining experience. Everything was clean, well-organized, and ran smoothly from start to finish. This is easily one of the best Korean BBQ experiences I've had. If you're looking for top-notch food and outstanding service, this place should be at the top of your list. Highly recommended!

This is our favorite Korean BBQ. Their quality is just top notch. Their sides are always fresh. We love it here.

Our service was actually amazing and our experience was great. The food was wonderful; however, we paid for the amount of food that was normal in a reasonable time that was given yet they still would not let us take our leftovers home, which I thought was ridiculous. All this considering we only ordered a normal amount of food, not excess at all. A small plate of leftovers.

Celebrated a birthday for my fiancé, complete excellent service and the food was extremely tasty. Definitely will be returning in the future.

Incredible experience! Alex was our table side server and he did an amazing job. We've eaten at several Korean BBQ restaurants in the north Atlanta area and this one is the best! Family of 4 for Mother's Day, we elected to go for the ARI all you can eat versus the Waygu and we were not disappointed. Food came out fast and was plentiful. Despite it being 25 miles from our house, we will be back!

Food, service and ambience was fantastic. You definitely get your money's worth! If I'm back in Atlanta, I will be visiting!

We love this KBBQ spot! The interior is intimate and cozy. It's never smoky inside, unlike many other similar restaurants. The meat is quality, sides are delicious, & sauces are a great complement to all. Staff is friendly and helpful!

the all ayce wagyu was phenomenal and our server, moses, made the experience even better! very personable and gave great recommendations.

Overall experience super positive, service is top notch. Marinated galbi was very good and high quality, but the roll is smaller than most other places i've been. The kimchi stew was good but extremely overly salty for my taste.

Very good food, service. Excellent drinks. Ambience is great as well. Definitely recommend.

We have been to Ari so many times and it's always been so nice to have a lovely meal there. Their Banchan is the BEST!!! Very good quality of meat and everything is so delicious. We have always have a great time!

We had an exceptional experience during our first time dining here. The Wagyu was delicious and the service was impeccable. We will definitely be back.

It was bad the food was good but the service was bad they ask me if I wanted fried rice but they never brought it to me they didn't brought my soup either

Great experience but did not live the set menu for Valentine's Day would have loved access to their whole menu. The food we did have was tasty although the best was the beef dumplings and bulgogi

Had a wonderful meal and experience, Andrew was a great server
