We were craving halal Korean BBQ while out in Atlanta and came across Ari - and it did not disappoint. The food was absolutely delicious. We tried several different halal meat options, plus so many sides, so it was definitely a lot of bang for your buck. Our server, JJ, made the experience even better. He was funny, attentive, patient, and gave great recommendations throughout the night. We were a pretty big party with lots of questions and constant refill requests, but he handled everything so well and made us feel really taken care of. If we're ever back in Atlanta, we'd absolutely come back. Highly recommend this spot whether you eat halal or not - the quality, service, and ambience were all excellent. read more

ARI Korean BBQ - Korean Near Me - Johns Creek, Georgia

I am such a sucker for Korean barbecue and this one was pretty good. It's definitely in my top five here's how it went: The ambience is very nice very clean and spacious enough for lots of guests. The service was top-notch. A Jeannie was a great server, she made sure that we had everything that we needed and answered all of our questions. The food was wonderful. You could taste that there is quality in the meats that they serve to the sides and the sauces that came on the salads. Everything was just so well prepared and delicious. We quite literally ate until we could not anymore. If you're in the area, please give this place a try and you will not be disappointed, but depend depending on what time of the day that you go you might have to make a reservation. read more

Amazing KBBQ! We've been to a few different KBBQ locations and none come close to ARI. The Wagyu is definitely worth it if you enjoy the sides, I highly recommend the chicken katsu, and tater-tots, but realistically the Ari AYCE option is great. The server offered to cook our food for us, which was very helpful when we were talking, but also allowed us to serve ourselves as we pleased. The room was open, but still felt like we had our own space to spend quality time together. Highly recommend, stick to the Ari AYCE unless you are looking for something specific. The red wine salt is incredible! read more

I had passed by ARI Korean BBQ a few times and finally decided to give it a try this past Saturday. From the moment my partner and I walked in, the service stood out. Staff were quick to seat us, and our waiter was consistently attentive. The space itself is elegantly decorated and had an upscale atmosphere. They were offering a summer lunch deal: Wagyu All-You-Can-Eat for $46.99, which is a $22 discount off the regular price. The meal came with a generous assortment of banchan, including salad, radish slices, kimchi, marinated cucumbers, sweet potatoes, and pickled onions. From the set menu, we ordered a variety of items: wagyu brisket, pork jowl, gochujang pork belly, ribeye, garlic butter shrimp, fried tteokbokki, kimchi stew, kimchi aioli tater tots, Korean spicy chicken wings, and a cheesy egg soufflé. My partner enjoyed the brisket, but he said the ribeye was disappointing. It was dry and overcooked, with much of it burnt. The pork jowl was flavorful and well-prepared, but the gochujang pork belly had an overpoweringly "porky" taste, as if it hadn't been cleaned properly. Our favorite dishes were the garlic butter shrimp, the Korean spicy chicken wings, and the kimchi stew, all which were rich, flavorful, and satisfying. read more

My wife and I dined at ARI Korean BBQ Steakhouse for the first time and it was a memorable dining experience. The service and the food was great! Our server, Melinda, who cooks the meat at your table, was engaging and grilled the meat to perfection. The side dishes were also excellent. We look forward to coming back in the future.

F O O D wagyu ayce 54.99 pp wagyu soy and sesame brisket x2 - so good short rib soy and sesame - jumuluk x3 - my fave spicy bulgolgi- the flavor is very soy saucy, green peppery the best combo is, jumuluk in aioli (meaty, chewy, light sesame flavor), then eat pink radish (for the sweet, vinegar-y sourness, crunch). then a bite of the corn cheese (heavier cheese flavor, mini crunch from the corn, salty). UGH. SO GOOD. FLAVOR TEXTURE BOMB. IM CRYING. corn cheese - so fresh and cheesy. not overly salty bao buns (literally two bao buns. nothing inside lmao) chicken wings - crunchy, red chili paste based. so good SAUCES red wine salt spicy soy bean paste jalapeno aioli read more

We had dinner on Tuesday night we were 9 of us, two under age kids and one 94 years old grandma 2 seniors. We were told that us two seniors will get 22% discount and since grandma does not eat more than bowl of rice she will not be charged? At the end of dinner we were charged $231,63 for being seniors, and grandma which she did not even eat rice. We called the restaurant to correct their mistakes by charging the grandma for a full all you can eat and us not getting the discount of 22%? people that were with us and they had more beers just were charged $150? You tell me why would they tell you something and do other? read more

I tried the wagyu menu and felt the proteins were good but I wouldn't pay for it again. My favorites were the ribeye, jumuluk, and galbi. I'd recommend the wagyu soy and sesame brisket for a quick cook. I enjoyed that they offer different sauces and they offer a huge and different selection of sides than other places. They didn't have the cheesy soufflé or soup of the day. The ventilation here is the best I've ever experienced. The tater tots were crispy but very oily, the Korean spicy chicken wings were good but only two pieces at a time, dumplings were fine but they gave you soooo much, and the buldak fire noodles were amazing. Service was ok but extremely slow. Considering there's a 90 min dining limit, service needs to be consistent. I was often left sitting waiting for my proteins to come with nothing on the grill. I also didn't receive my full order. The restaurant is beautiful. I love the look and feel of the place. It's super spacious with plenty of seating. read more

Came on a weekday after work, so it was less crowded compared to a weekend. The meat was great, and the side dishes and sauces were fresh and tasty. A bit on the pricier side, and service did slow down toward the end, but it was a great experience. read more

Wow! One of the best Korean BBQ experiences I have ever had! We came super early in the evening so it was not busy. I'm sure this helped, but service was impeccable.. We got the small sized Wagyu feast. It was definitely a feast! It was so tender and tasty. The amount of sides that came out with this was unbelievable to me. This is one thing that I set this apart from other Korean barbecue places I've been to in the past. We had some Soju in Korean beer to wash everything down.. This was an amazing experience and I can't wait to come back. read more

The Wagyu Bulgogi, the LA Galbi short ribs, the wings, the crème corn etc; are always consistently good. Highly recommend.

Had a wonderful experience being served by JJ. Food, service, and ambiance were all great. The food quality is exceptional and he was very attentive. Definitely recommend!!! read more

We went on Friday night. And it was just us and nobody else at 8pm we sat down and ordered from wagyu menu. And all the meat that came out seemed gray. However the sides were amazing and the fried rice was very good but was disappointing because I came to have meat everything we ordered seemed old and was very disappointing we tried giving benefit of doubt our server however was very nice and the place itself is very nice. Which was disappointing read more

This was my first time at high end Korean restaurant and omg all my K drama food dreams were fulfilled. This place is amazing. Our server was very nice and patient and explained everything to us. They cook the food for you in front of you. You get to choose one protein at a time with 2 sides. It's unlimited for 90 minutes. My favorite thing was the Wagyu beef and my favorite sides were the ramen and fried rice. Very nice seating and very cute black and white tile flooring. We really wanted to try their desserts from the cake shop in front of the restaurant but were extremely full. We ate the cake slices late night at my home. Those didn't disappoint either. Will be back for another family night!!! read more

*Free Parking *Reservation highly recommended *Wagyu AYCE $54.99, Ari Halal AYCE $39.99 Children under 3 eat for Free *90 Minutes Limit *Don't expect good quality Wagyu here *The whole experience is a 3.5/5. It is Good for Halal, their seasoning and side dishes was yummy. I couldn't tell the difference between regular KKBQ vs Wagyu KKBQ. Our Wagyu didn't have much marble but the Galbi meat tasted good. I'm looking to find the best Wagyu AYCE spot and sadly this place is not it. Expect to spend almost $100 per person here. We came on a busy Saturday night and the service was slow, I didn't mind grilling some of the meat since the staff was busy. I hope they hired more people soon. I do like their sides, my favorite was the japchae and the bao buns. The Kimchi was also pretty good and flavorful. They offer 19 different sides and 24 different type of Protein for the AYCE Wagyu. Chicken and shrimp is available. I did not like the 90 minutes limit vs 2 hours compare to other KKBQ. Ari is VERY strict on the timing so make sure you eat fast. Because the service was slow that also cut down on the timing for Us to fully enjoy the $75 (22% gratuity) experience. You can only order 2 proteins and 2 sides once you done with your food. The Wagyu meat did not taste better than my fav Korean BBQ Spot. If you want to come here I would try the Halal Ari regular pricing. My Muslim friends said there not much of a difference, only the Bulgogi was better. My BF and I agreed we won't come back. Only bc there is better KKBQ in Georgia for more affordable pricing and longer time to eat. read more

We love ARI! It's definitely more expensive than most KBBQ restaurants, but it's definitely worth the price. Do the Wagyu AYCE and get the ribeye. Some of the best cuts of meet we've had at an AYCE KBBQ location. The interior is beautiful and looks very elegant compared to other restaurants and our waiter was so speedy! Always taking care of us and cooking the meat to make sure it didn't burn. Highly recommend! read more

Quality/service has improved TREMENDOUSLY since the last time I have been here! I used to think the price was a bit high for what it was, but I think it's totally worth it! The menu selection for meats and appetizers is stellar! and the brisket alone was enough for me to want to come back for more! #NEVERFROZEN! Loved all of the appetizers we got as well, especially the kimchi fried rice and egg soufflé! read more

Wow. I'm impressed! 10/10 BUT you must do the WAGYU AYCE. Parking: shared parking in a plaza by the movie theaters Service: our waiter was amazing! Ambiance: 10/10! This is probably one of the boujiest kbbq place I've ever been to. I LOVE how open it is. I especially love that it doesn't smell and you don't leave smelling like kbbq. IYKYK. Their grill has vents inside that sucks the smoke rather than right above and it makes for all the difference. They use gold silverware and cute plates. They could upgrade their cups to match the vibe but whatever lol. Food: we of course, did AYCE wagyu and only ate wagyu plus sides. My favorite was bulgogi and short rib. Our favorite sides: cheese corn and kimchi fried rice. Least favorite: chicken katsu. It was extremely dry and flavor overall was not any good. read more

Ari Kbbq has easily become my favorite restaurant in the area. As the only halal kbbq that I know of in the area, we love to come here for special occasions (or even a random day in the middle of the week) Our servers have always been very kind and helpful. Unlike other kbbq spots I've been to in the past, the servers do the cooking for you. There are two menus that you can choose from, but the wagyu menu is the one that has the halal options. Banchan are brought out and you get two choices of meat and two sides. There are sooo many to choose from, but we typically stick to the Wagyu beef. The soy and sesame brisket and spicy bulgogi are our favorites. All the sides that we have had have been so good! We usually stick to the japchae, corn cheese, and teokbokki! Their salad is sooo good and I love their cucumber kimchi. It's always a good experience at Ari Food recs: soy and sesame brisket, spicy bulgogi, japchae read more

The tea was good. Our waitress Vanessa was nice. It really ends there. The bulgogi beef over cooked. The brisket was so tough that my dinner companion couldn't chew it. The shrimp tasted like burnt garlic. The garlic burns to get the shrimp to be done. The chicken tasted charred. The only think I liked was the rice. read more

Great service here. Awesome selection of American Wagyu meat including brisket and bulgogi. I love all the sides they have including a fried pancake, tteokbokki , salad , corn cheese etc. kind of pricey but we came for their deal on Tuesday so it was okay. Awesome place! read more

Put down our names at 630pm, had to wait 45 mins to be seated. Met the server at 722pm, asked if they would honor the 40% AYCE because we got here on time (4pm - 7pm was the promo), but we had to wait. The manager would not honor it. The food was slow. Around 45 minutes, we were only served 2 plates of briskets. Pork belly was really salty. But my server was pretty, nice, and gave us complimentary corn Cheese. My bf and I have been to Ari 3 times in the past month and a half. We only came back today to try the wagyu acye with friends because we can never eat enough just by ourselves. Over all, in the 2 hours we were there we ate only 5 plates of meat for a party of 4. read more

The wagyu menu is only ok barely worth the price is the main reason for the lower score. Unfortunately you can get better for less if you are willing to take the drive to pleasant hill rd in duluth there is at least 6 places with better prices than ARI and they even have bigger selections and better food/service/atmosphere overall. Ari is simply upscale for the sake of being upscale the food does not warrant the price. Thankfully the one thing worth mentioning is their wine salt which you can buy at the gift/bakery shop in front of the restaurant. TLDR buy the wine salt and eat elsewhere. read more

Deplorable front of house staff. Will not support this establishment cannot compete with similar level kbbq's in nyc for the same price point. read more

We went to Ari on a whim. We were hungry and didn't know what to eat but saw this nearby and decided to try it. The food, the service and the atmosphere were phenomenal. I can't believe it took us so long to go there. We tried different types of meat and all of them were delicious to the core. Even the server was friendly and professional. We spent $150 for lunch; way too pricey for our regular meals but it's worth splurging on quality food once in a while. read more

Compared to other kbbq spots in the area, this place is a bit more pricey. However, the atmosphere, meat, and service reflect the increased cost. I have been here for both lunch and dinner. And the quality of service and meat was consistent. There is a bakery attached to this restaurant, so leave some room for dessert. While I truly enjoyed my experiences here, it's more likely that this will be reserved for special occasions and not necessarily become a go to spot to scratch my kbbq cravings. read more

Let me start by saying BEWARE! AVOID THIS PLACE! OK, with that out the way let's begin. Parking was super easy. Plenty of spots. A full bar is always nice. Atmosphere is what you would expect. They cook the food for you at your table. We ordered the Buson feast. There were four of us and I'm fairly certainly they charged us for four but only brought out enough food for two. The fried rice was terrible. Dry with no taste. Same for the strip steak. Brisket was mostly fat which is par for brisket. I can go on about how bad the food was or how little food there was but I hope you get what to expect. Would I go here again? Absolutely not. This place may have been the worse Korean bbq I've ever been to. It's rare that I give one star but this place earned that 1 star. read more

My delivery order was quite dry. I ordered the waygu bulgogi bowl and some wings. The bulgogi was quite dry; not fresh. The wings were ok

Offered good quality cuts of meat. Wagyu all you can eat is American wagyu but for the price of $55/pp I didn't expect japanese wagyu. Comes with dipping sauces and sides. The side orders were mediocre. Really, just go for the meat. Overall great variety of food and good service. They grill the meat for you. Ambiance: modern Parking: large free parking lot read more

Highly recommend ARI! We love doing the AYCE wagyu - it's honestly a great value. But pace yourself, and don't stuff yourself on carbs so you can eat more of the meats. Ask your server for their favorites and get some of those. But try the fried tteokbokki and the corn cheese is always a favorite. Service is great, try as much as you can, but don't waste! Oh - and always, always get the egg soufflé! As a note, it's limited to one. read more

Ordered the spicy bulgogi, La galbi, jumuluk, egg fried rice, Korean spicy chicken wing, and veggie pancake. Everything was delicious! The server was lovely and cooked all the meat perfectly. There are so many things to try, I will def be back with a group. The restaurant is really nice, and the booths give a bit of privacy. I also had a yuzu soda which was nice and refreshing. This is def the best AYCE Korean bbq I've had in Atlanta. Highly recommend! read more
