I am deeply saddened to write this view in particular because I feel like there some very…read moredisturbing undertones to the nature of the service I received in this restaurant on this visit. First, let me say that I love this restaurant. I live in South Metro Atlanta, so for me to come all the way up to Buford, Georgia to eat at this place, I really like it. My previous experience has been nothing short of excellent. Even on this visit, the food was excellent and I had no complaints with its quality or in the environment in the establishment. However, when I walked in, I was greeted my an extremely rude young man at the front counter. He was so rude that, I decided to leave and went back to my car. As I sat there, I had to remind myself that I had driven over an hour and it would have been foolish to leave at this point. So, I went back inside and ordered. Again, extremely rude to myself and my guest. It was so bad that my guest also noticed. Even in telling us where to sit, he acted as if I was bothering him by coming inside and ordering food. When our food arrived to the table, he just slammed it down and walked off like he was annoyed. What was even more telling about how, insanely, disturbing his behavior, was that when he and his 'shift' left and was replaced my some young ladies, the experience, completely changed! I mean, immediately changed. The young ladies were helpful, pleasant, and friendly. The mood changed so drastically like night and day. Again, this food is good! The environment is neat! But, if this young man is continued to be allowed to interact with customers, there will be some continued problems.

TLDR: Food 3.5/5, Atmosphere 3/5, Service 1/5. Would pick up food to go but would not choose…read moreto dine in again. During my short time in the Buford area, I've come to this place twice in the last two days. The food brought me back as well as proximity to our hotel, however if I were local, the service would drive me away. The type of staff that seems more, interested in hanging out and talking with each other than actually serving the customers. First day I was here. I got the bulgogi Omurice dish and it was tasty. I expected the omelette actually cover the entire portion of rice (top and bottom like an omelette which it didn't. Nevertheless, served piping hot in the stone dish and the flavors were good and not overpowering, and the portion was large. A decent value. The second day, after learning a lesson from the previous one, my wife and I split the Bulgogi fried rice dish (which she had gotten the day before.) Again, the flavors did not disappoint. The rub came when my cousin and I, who have two Independent families and who paid separately, were bulked together as one large group so that a mandatory service fee could be tacked on. When I asked, they said the computer made them charge the service fee. This is in addition to having the system prompt for a tip in addition. The ironic part is that we weren't even standing next to each other in line. Then if you are going to charge a service fee, we would expect to have some solid service that is pretty prompt. Small things such as being able to get water when and as soon as you sit down (perhaps they were busy?), as well as having the sufficient amount of silverware (perhaps they just miscounted?) and actually people smile when they're helping you (perhaps it was the end of the day and they were tired?). Lots of hypotheticals. Just a higher expectation of service, especially when being subject to this service fee. Nevertheless, the family enjoyed the food. We are in and out and about 45 minutes and I'm leaving town today so it doesn't really matter but if you're looking for great service, this isn't the place for you but if you just need a quick bite to pick up and take back to your home or hotel,, go for it.

We were happy to find out that the lunch menu applies on the weekends too! $24.99 for lunch and $29.99 for dinner. You can opt for the dinner menu if you want more beef options. Since it was our first visit, we stuck with the lunch and it was more than enough for us. Some of the meats we ordered: - Beef Brisket - Beef Bulgogi - Spicy Beef Bulgogi - Pork Belly - Spicy Pork Belly I enjoyed the beef brisket and pork belly the most. Banchan offered are japchae, corn cheese, kimchi, sesame broccoli, pickled radishes, egg soufflé and rice. Japchae, sesame broccoli and egg soufflé was tasty. I wasn't a fan of the corn cheese as it came out in these little aluminum cups with cheese on top and it's left on the grill until the cheese melts. The service is good. You cook the meat yourselves here, but our server came around to take our orders and change the grills pretty often. 985 also offers a ramen bar for an additional cost at the center of the restaurant. They have a ton of ramen options for you to choose from and various toppings to add a la carte. Overall, it's a decent AYCE KBBQ at a good value. Nowadays, $25 AYCE KBBQ spots are rare and for that price point, I'd consider this a 3.5 rounded up to 4 star.

Rice was top notch and they had fresh veggies. Atmosphere was wonderful. Very clean and bright in here, nothing much to note. Music was soft and low for holding a conversation. Service was good.

The moment I said Korean fried chicken, she lit up like I had just announced free dessert for life, so the decision was instantly made. Ordering online was quick and painless, with clear tracking that let me know exactly when to leave the house. By the time I pulled up to the window, everything was ready and handed over piping hot, which is honestly the dream when you are picking up food and want maximum crunch preservation. We went with the honey garlic boneless, the soy garlic boneless, and an order of beef dumplings, and the flavors were exactly why this place stays in our regular rotation. The chicken had that signature ultra crisp coating that stays crunchy even after the drive home. Not just crispy, but the kind of crunch you can hear before you taste it. The honey garlic was sweet, savory, and sticky in the best way, coating each piece without turning it soggy. The soy garlic brought a deeper, umami rich flavor that felt balanced and satisfying without being overly salty. The dumplings rounded everything out perfectly. Tender wrappers, flavorful filling, and just the right companion to all that crispy goodness. Everything tasted fresh, hot, and consistent with what we have come to expect. No surprises, no drop in quality, just dependable deliciousness that makes you wonder why you would order fried chicken from anywhere else. Most importantly, my mom was thrilled, and that alone makes this place a Sunday dinner hero. When the food is this good and pickup is this easy, it is hard to argue with tradition.
