On Mon-Thurs, they offer a pretty solid all you can eat lunch option, though you'd have to be pretty hungry to exploit it! We got the veggie bibimbap and seafood soup, along with the requisite set of appetizers. Both were tasty and filling. Note that we had to ask for some "hot sauc" to generate some extra spice...I put quotes because it was a bit sweet - but still offered sufficient flavor. Service was friendly and straightforward - answering our questions and providing some side items as requested. It seems like they are labor constrained, but they definitely made it work.

The Korean food scenes got my wife and I hungry every time! Having been to many of Atlanta's best Korean restaurants over the past decade, Stone Bowl is a clear notch above the rest. The side dishes are just simply better with robust authentic seasoning and unforgettable flavor that leaves you craving for more. The kimchi is spot on for spice but not overwhelming. The potatoes are to die for, cooked to perfection, tender and absorbent of all the nearby flavors. For the first time, we tried the Korean sushi roll (K-Pop Demon Hunters was calling) and it didn't disappoint. Stuffed with fresh cooked bulgogi and veggies, we ate it so fast we were left thinking of Korean sushi rolls had an edge over Japanese sushi rolls! And we also got the poached dumplings for the first time and almost went as fast as the sushi roll. The authentic style of poaching the dumpling made it taste homemade from grandma's kitchen. The sizzling plate of bulgogi was amazingly put down the gullet on top of everything else. Consistently on point and warms the tummy. Service is cordial, but somewhat aloof and distant at times because we would have loved an offer to refill our side dishes, but admittedly they are often busy and we don't go there to expect Michelin dining service levels. We come for the food. Awesome food. And Stone Bowl House will be seeing us again before long.

Despite this, the restaurant was vibrant on a rainy midweek day... Almost full to capacity with patrons. Happy my partner recommended this restaurant! I sat at the bar to place my to go order and was greeted promptly by the bartender. He brought me water and provided the QR code to order. The gentleman next to me was enjoying the Bimibap which looked very enticing, but due to the cold weather, I wanted something warm. Soup was not an option and was directed to the glass noodle dish. The glass noodles were of a sweet potato consistency and included several vegetables. I did not know that the bone marrow mentioned in the description would be an actual marrow, quite large that was discovered once I dug into my dish at home. The flavors exuded were right on point! The portion was also ample for a second meal. Will definitely return to sample the Bimibap on a warmer day and possibly some of the drinks offered. I truly enjoyed the waiting period at the bar, striking up conversation and viewing Misery which was being projected on the wall... A true horror classic. I enjoyed the atmosphere and menu offerings.

I popped into Gaja Korean Bar this past Friday... and wow…read more This place is a hidden gem for real. I've walked past it a million times and had NO idea it was even there. The vibe is super cool -- eccentric in the best way, intimate but still lively. They had a movie playing on a projector, which gave the space a whole artsy, underground feel. Now, the menu isn't exactly pescatarian‑friendly, so I couldn't go too crazy, but what I *did* try was solid. The Kimchi Fried Rice was a little on the bland side for me -- I expected more punch since it's kimchi, but the portion was perfect. Most people pair it with their signature chicken dishes anyway, which makes total sense. The Kimchi Crab Cake, though? Absolutely delicious. Packed with savory lump crab, crispy panko coating, and a little lemony finish. YUM. My boyfriend got the Gaja‑style chicken and was obsessed -- crispy, crunchy, tossed in their famous sauce, topped with tofu ranch. He cleaned that plate. Now let's talk drinks. I ordered the Sledge‑o‑matic Lover, and this is the perfect spring/summer drink. Cucumber jalapeño tequila, house‑made watermelon syrup, a splash of lime, a hint of lemon... perfection. It's listed as spicy, but it's really not -- and I'm not a spicy‑drink girlie. This one is fantastic. The service was great too -- warm, attentive, and quick. The food came out faster than expected, everything was hot, and every dish looked beautiful. Gaja really surprised me in the best way.

The menu feels a bit more streamlined than I remember from the original location, though the core dishes are still there. It will be interesting to see how the restaurant evolves under the current management. Regardless, the food consistently tastes authentic and well prepared. Service has always been pleasant and efficient during my visits, which makes the experience even better. Parking can occasionally be tricky since it's located in downtown Alpharetta, but there's a nearby free parking garage that makes it manageable. Overall, it's a solid go-to when you're craving Korean food in the area without needing to drive to neighboring cities.

0/5 stars. What kind of scam is this????…read more As a korean, this place was a huge disappointment. First off, jjamppong no matter where you go all have a distinct, staple taste. The spicy jjamppong here tasted horrible. it was just noodles with 5 pieces of over cooked and old seafood in chili paste broth.... Second. The bibimbap? why would they serve it on a FLAT plate? it was so hard to mix the rice in it. Portion size of this dish was like kids menu. Not sure if they only focused on the aesthetics of the restaurant but there no need for you to waste money here.

He brought home a spicy chicken bento box that included rice, a salad slaw of some sort, a tiny bit of Mac salad, kimchi and kimchi cucumbers. It was a nice sized lunch portion! The Mac salad was cool, not usually my thing but it was tasty. The salad was also really good and fresh, I wish there was a bit more to enjoy. The kimchi and cucumbers were very good, I wish they were spicier but I ate them alll. The chicken was delicious but not spicy enough. All together, this meal was a perfect combo of flavors. I'll definitely return for more bites to enjoy.

Located on Buford highway just OTP Kang Nam has a nice building and spacious parking lot. Walk in and you are greeted quickly and shown to a table. There are also curtained booths for privacy.

The box also came with three veggie side dishes that have a name but I am not looking it up sorry. My box had some udon soup that was ok, a delicious roll, 12 slices of fish, a couple eggs, come eel, some tempura, and a crab stick. It was all fresh tasting and delicious. The yellowtail was especially good, I dont always like yellowtail. All of this for only $26 I think is awesome. I will be back!

This was a long time ago, maybe before Covid, and it's really sad to see that it went downhill since I've last been. Upon entering, I noticed we were the only customers. Strange, but maybe the late lunch, early dinner time is not busy here. We were sat down, but the service wasn't very friendly. Despite being the only people here, we felt rushed to order and go. I suppose the biggest reason I'm giving a 3 is because of the yellow croaker/corvina. I love, love, love when tofu houses give it, and when I saw it here... it was the biggest disappointment. It was old. Definitely not as fresh as some of the other offerings here, and honestly, of the menu items here, only the seafood pancake was anything truly worthwhile. While the galbi was well marinated, it was thin. The soft tofu soup was good, but I feel as though most tofu houses do it well, so it's expected.

One of the most esthetically pleasing Korean BBQ places I've been to. It's an all you can eat spot with an extensive variety of meats to choose from. The quality of the meats is A1. Don't let me get started on the side options they offer! They provide substantial assortment of sides that are all savory & delectable. On top of the delicious food they also have a full bar available for your enjoyment. They have complementary parking available so no worries about adding an extra cost to the food adventure. If you sit at the tables with a grill it is an "all you can eat" option for everyone at the table only, no exceptions. If you desire to eat from the single meal menu there is bar seating available. There is a two hour limit per table but that is more than enough time to get your fill & moneys worth. Trust me you must go and it would not surprise me if Thrill becomes your new favorite Korean BBQ spot as well. I know it stole my heart and I plan on coming back many times over! Nom nom nom!
