    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!

    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!

    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.
