    Buffet
    Soojin K.

    By far my favorite hotpot place. The price is amazing for all you can eat. I choose the 1 tray of meat option because there is so much to eat from the buffet. The people there are so kind and attentive. The buffet is very clean, always fresh and it is getting replenished constantly. The buffet has all types of veggies, dumplings, desserts, tradition korean drinks, hot foods, and two sauce making stands. I love their current bingsu station. Even when I moved to Chicago, I missed this restaurant.

    Came for the AYCE! I got the new soup to try, jjampong! And it was sooo good! It actually tasted like jampong! Wish it was a little spicier but nothing that couldn't be fixed with my own spicy dipping sauce. I also love the concept of having your own pot, it is so much easier to eat when you can just cook what you want and not have to dig through a big pot (cleaner too!) The meats we got and kept getting was the beef rib eye slices! They were so good and had the perfect amount of fatty on it. There were also a lot of selection in the hot bar! I tried the cold noodles but it was very salty! The japchae was delicious tho. The sauce bar was also very clean and stocked up pretty well. I do wish there were more vegetables option if I'm honest. Like enoki mushrooms, different tofu options, yam. But other than that, even if you don't get meat here the veges are pretty filling! Esp with the hot bar. I enjoyed the bingsu machine so much! What an amazing addition! It was so fluffy and perfectly shaved. I also love the powder they have to put on it! Will definitely look forward to coming back here.

    Came here for lunch on a weekday. Overall, it was just okay. The quality was decent -- I ordered the brisket as my one meat plate, and it was pretty good. There were a lot of options in the buffet for toppings like veggies, noodles, and sauces, which I appreciated. But most of the buffet items tasted a bit stale, like they had been sitting out for a while (understandable for a lunch service, but still noticeable). Next time I come back, I'd probably try the unlimited meat option and just focus on that, since that seemed like the main draw here.

    This is my favorite shabu ayce spot, their buffet selection is huge, lots of veggie, noodle, fishcakes, and korean hot dishes. My favorite thing is the cute bear broth ice.

    My niece and I visited this restaurant, and it was absolutely delicious--well worth the drive from Athens! They offer an incredible variety of options, including tteokbokki (Korean spicy rice cakes), sushi, and a great selection of refreshing drinks. The buffet area is full of flavorful choices, making it a wonderful spot for anyone, whether you prefer vegan options or enjoy meat and seafood. For those on the vegan side, you can skip the meat prices and still enjoy the hotpot and buffet selections. But if you're a meat lover, this place is a must-visit. For only $40, you can indulge in an all-you-can-eat experience featuring premium meats, hotpot, and seafood. The quality, variety, and overall experience make it an excellent value. Truly worth the trip and highly recommended! The ambiance was amazing not too loud where you cant talk, and service was amazing cups where always refilled

    Clean and spacious all you can eat hot pot in Duluth! The vegetables are fresh and there's so many options to choose from. They also have soba noodles, sushi, and refreshing drinks that come with the all you can eat package. Meat can be purchased separately. Reasonably priced hot pot. Service was attentive. Definitely will be coming back!

    *9 broths: dashi(anchovy seaweed based), vegetable/spicy dashi, vegetable beef bone, mara. 3 new broths: deungchon(korean authentic spicy), tomato, udon-dashi *Basic shabu buffet: +70 vegetables, mushrooms, fishcakes, dumpling, noodles and more *If you wanna enjoy real shabu, you have to order protein: - One plate of protein from $7.99-$9.99 - Combo A is just like the basic shabu buffet but includes 1 plate of meat or seafood of your choice with $7, which is $2 cheaper - If you can eat more than 2 plates of protein, choosing unlimited for $37.99 would be better choice. - They have new protein - bulgogi(sweet soysauce based seasoning), which is perfect match with udon-dashi. *K-food and more - Tteokboggi, fried dumpling, fried rice, house-made kimchi, soba naodle - shrimp tempura roll, california roll, spring roll - dessert: fruit, salads, rice punch, cinnamon punch, pudding This place is every Buffet lovers paradise. The ambiance of the place was very clean and 9292 is just a great place to eat good hotpot on a chilly day. This is a must try if you are looking for something to warm the soul.

    We met up with a friend here and overall experience was pretty good. Lots of food items to choose from and it's AYCE! They have a menu for choosing variety of meats and broth type. We all went with the bone broth. They also have a buffet style for choosing your vegetables, fish balls, tofu, to make your sauce and condiments, etc. the broth comes tasteless with no salt or pepper. It's kind of self service and you the only thing that requires service is beverages, ordering meats, and more broth. I am normally use to flavored broth in shabu shabu and I can see why they made it without salt and pepper so you can flavor it yourself but I'd personally like some flavor to it. Other than that, everything was great! I'd totally try it again if I'm in town because of the variety of options in the buffet. Place is bigger than it looks! Great for small or large groups. Till then, let's eat!

    This is the spot where I come for hotpot... but somehow end up getting full off the buffet sides instead . Like, where else can you load up on tteokbokki, soba noodles, sushi rolls, fried rice, jello, and fruit salad all in one go?! For broth, I personally loved the udon dashi (goes well w beef bulgogi) and beef bone broth--both packed with deep flavors! And for dipping, the black sesame and peanut sauce were my go-to for that rich, nutty flavor. Oh, and the bunny pudding costs an extra $3, but it's SO cute--honestly might be worth it just for the picture... service was good, if you come during weekend or rush hour(lunch/dinner time) it might get busy.

    As I already tried their bbq restaurant and the experience was great. I've heard that they also have a hotpot restaurant so today I gave it try. The food and meat was phenomenal, especially their buffet line. You can find anything from fresh vegetable to side dishes like japchae and Korean rice cake. The restaurant today is quite staff-short so when I pressed the calling button, no one came most of the time. The price to me is quite expensive too. I understand that their buffet line was great but $30 without unlimited meat is sup rising for me. Beside that, the restaurant is clean and very welcoming. Overall, this place is fire but because of the price, I would not go back for a while.

    A friend and I came here during lunch. It was busy! We sat down at a booth and this place is spacious! We came for the AYCE and we can choose our broth. I got the spicy dashi and off we go to fill our plates. They have so many varieties to choose from. We got plenty of greens: kale, spinach, mushrooms, dumplings, meatballs, fishballs, sweet potato, malanga, kimchi, etc. They also brought out large plates of meat and seafood for us to start. Everything was fresh and delicious. They do limit your time, but we sat there for a while and no one rushed us. We were only able to get 2 plates of meat/seafood before we were full. I would definitely come back just for the AYCE. It was more than enough food to fill me up. We weren't able to eat as much meat as we intended to. But good service and nice selection of food. We left with full and happy bellies!

    This was a random place I dine in at during my visit in Georgia and I say my money was well spent here! There were so many choices to choose to put in my shabu shabu while it was super fresh! On top of that, the side dishes, menu and dessert options were so nice too! One thing that I personally really liked was that the servers brought us plentiful meat and not just few pieces at a time. Also the servers were very kind and provided a good service. The restaurant is very big so each tables are decently apart from each other and I liked how bright it was!!

    So tasty

My partner and I came in around roughly 9:50-10pm. When we arrived we're were initially informed that we had to order soon because they were closing in 30 minutes and were understandings of that. Shortly after we were seated, (literally 1-2 minutes) about 3 employees came to our table letting us know we needed to order within the next few minutes. It was like 10:05. I tried asking one of the employee what the meat options were and was just interrupted by him being persistent in us ordering and did not really answer our questions, mainly because I noticed some of the meat options were pork and I do not consume pork for personal reasons. My partner and I felt overwhelmed and just ordered something we thought would not include pork. After submitting our order another employee came by with the check already without us asking insisting for us to pay before our food even came out. Mind you the restaurant closed within 20 minutes at this point. When our food did come out, it did contain PORK!!! We just left shortly afterwards and left the food on the table.

I was absolutely obsessed with the smell of this restaurant before I even went in! I appreciated them, giving us two grills, and the staff actually cook the meat for you. I wish I was sitting more towards the left grill because whoever cooked the pork belly on that side made sure the flame was hot enough and it cooked the pork thoroughly while also making it crispy on the outside. In front of me, the griller did not make the heat high enough so it took a while for the pork to be fully cooked. She told us it was done and it was still kind of chewy so I kept swapping back-and-forth from the left grill onto this one. That's the only reason why I gave it a four instead of a five out of five was because I did not like the way they cooked part of our pork. It was so chewy the fat was not cooked at all, but it was an easy fix. I just had to cook it longer on the other grill but again we shared two grills between eight people so 1/2 of our group got to eat more than us. I like how the pork doesn't have a really strong, pork smell, and it tasted very good like it was seasoned properly. I absolutely love the kimchi! I love how this restaurant stays open pretty late so we can enjoy eating and drinking. It's such a nice casual place to hang out. For dessert, we had kimchi fried rice haha. It was such a great night!

When he got to the scallion salad, she was just not loving it, but he told her to at least try and see what she thinks (don't knock it til you try it!)

Since she didn't really know what she likes, I made a few suggestions and the server suggests letting him bring us the most popular items first and we can work our way through the menu. What a great idea!! Started with brisket and ribeye and wow ... meats were fresh, paired with the sides, and the dipping sauces, it's just chef's kiss!! We then had bulgogi and pork belly and those were just bursting with flavor! The cheesy corn was good but burned too fast on the grill, the spicy bean sprouts are amazing, and the steam egg is my favorite . The only downside is that if you don't eat those sides that are cooking on the grill right away they'll turn dry and burned and it won't be as good. The cheesy corn also caused some splattering to our hands when we were cooking the meats. The server apologized for the oil splattering since he heard the squeal immediately soak up the oil from the cheesy corn so the splattering would stop. Overall, my friend gave it 10/10!!!
