From the meats, the pulled pork was my favorite, followed closely by the ribs. Chicken and sausage were good as well. Also - the hot BBQ and Sweet BBQ sauces were very tasty and unique. But again - what made the food taste even better was the INCREDIBLE ladies who welcomed me in.

Never received a call which was service issue number two. So I placed an order today and proposed that they give a pint of Brunswick stew for free. When I arrived, again no greeting and the lady looked dead at me for several seconds. Maybe I don't fit the expected demographic to be served.

We ordered the salmon Benedict, French toast plate, and back and egg scramble. The food came out within about 20 min of ordering and being sat, in waves. The salmon cakes were a bit dry and could've used much more hollandaise, so the hot sauce really helped! And the poached egg was cooked well done so we missed out on the runny egg. The potatoes were nicely seasoned and the drop biscuits were so delicious. We cleaned the French toast plate! And the scramble was just OK--the side of grits were cooked just like at home. We'd absolutely come back and try a few more items.

Once we got there, she was even more welcoming and got us seated in no time. Before I explain my concern, let me make it clear that we will certainly be back when we visit Athens! The location is so close to the UGA campus it's a no-brainer. There was plenty of street parking around, including handicap, so it's easy to get to. While the front entrance is almost hilariously plain and non-descript, the interior is really beautiful!! I felt like we walked into a The Great Gatsby. My daughter was tickled by the ever-changing ticker sign over the bar. Everyone loved the stained glass and deep colors. Even the bathrooms were like being at Grand Central Station in the 20's. And the food!!! We tried all the classic Southern Soul Food staples, and they did NOT disappoint! From the fried green tomatoes, to the shrimp & grits, to an enormous French Toast, they put their foot in it!! Bravo! I have to note that the fried chicken is truly crave-able--crispy, juicy, & flavorful!! The fried green tomatoes were cornbread crispy and delicious! Fair warning that they do have a bit of a bite to them, so check with your littles. We appreciated that they offered egg whites in any dish with eggs, but I wish there was a non-pork substitute for some dishes. There's a vegan selection, but it's just not the same, so we didn't try it. Maybe next time! I lived my goat cheese omelette, and the portion was big enough I got to take some home with me. Just wonderful food all around. The beignets were divine! And it ended up being my daughter's birthday dessert/app. And then we just kept ordering more. Cannot say enough great things about our server--and my mind goes blank because I wish I could remember her name!! She was great the entire time for our whole 9-top group. She kept the waters filled, she cleared plates along the way, she was welcoming and engaging, and we just all enjoyed being here because of it. While we waited for some of our party to arrive, we were directed to a beautiful lobby adjacent to the restaurant. Unfortunately, the floor was exceptionally slippery--like an oily kind of slippery that is not conducive to an 88-year-old using a walker kind of slippery. I was a little worried for my F & MIL. The elevator is so far from where we needed to be that it wasn't worth the risk, so we chose to go up the 2 steps at the front entrance. Luckily for us, everyone was able to move around with care this time.

My friends and I came to this place about a 4 days ago and I was just amazed at what they had. I personally am new to Korean BBQ so I had no idea what to do or what to order. I'm from the Smyrna/Atlanta area so we do not have many places like these, so seeing this in Athens while attending UGA peeked my interest. My friends also did not know what to order either and many items on the menu seemed to be pretty pricey. Like yo, I'm a broke college student. We decided to stay anyways and ended up talking to some of the workers who broke down the menu for us. They really seemed to know the menu so we took the chance and we decided to get the C combo and some of their appetizers and split it among 4 people. Originally, I thought that this would not fill us up and that we would be disappointed, but they did prove me wrong. We found out that the sides were unlimited along with the white rice and the meat looked so juicy! I should of taken more pictures. The waitress, was super sweet and would always ask us if we wanted more sides or if we needed anything else. The customer service was pretty good especially since some of the other waiters/waitresses would also check up on us. I didn't get to catch their names. The only real problem I had was when they would cook the meat, they would drip some of the sauce on the table or over some food. I personally did not really mind it, but my friends weren't too keen on having meat juice being spilled on their plate(s). Other than that small problem, the place was very tidy! The floors were clean and the place was not all smoked up like we thought it would. The restrooms were very clean and didn't smell absolutely horrid so kudos to them for keeping a BBQ place's restroom smelling decent. I also loved the music! I don't really know what songs they were playing, but I'm guessing it was some type of pop song. I wish they were music videos though, because it was getting somewhat boring looking at an album page. Anyways the food was great! The fried rice was probably the best ones I've had, other than my mom's home cooking of course. The servers also cooked the meat very well as well! They didn't burn it and it was cool when they cooked the steak on the grill because the fire rose and it was like a miniature fire show. Nothing too dangerous, but it was really cool! I took a video of it as well and posted it on my snap. The meat was so good. Especially the one that was called Garbi (? Correct me if I'm wrong please). It was the one meat in the middle that was like a strip. The server was not wrong when they said we were in for a treat. After the meal, we got the check and lets just say it was $$$, but it was definitely worth it. Overall, I can say that my first experience at a Korean BBQ place was amazing and maybe I will start looking to try more in other areas as well! The only problems we had were small, nothing too major. The service, the food, and the area was very good and I hope to visit again with more people and more money. Is it also possible to cater? Or to reserve tables ahead of time? Please let me know! I might want to do a birthday celebration or graduation celebration here as well! Thank you very much and hope to eat there again in the future. read more

I had a terrible experience at this Korean restaurant and feel compelled to share my concerns. I ordered a lunch box, but it did not include the items listed on the menu. To make matters worse, I was automatically charged an 18% tip, which the restaurant states is only applicable to the all-you-can-eat menu. Since I ordered from the regular menu, this charge was completely unjustified. When I calmly tried to address these issues with the server, instead of resolving the mistakes, she became hostile and even threatened to call the police on me. This behavior was shocking and completely unprofessional. It's unacceptable for a restaurant to misrepresent their menu, improperly apply charges, and treat customers with such disrespect. I left feeling humiliated and frustrated. I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Up until recently I had never heard of "Koreon bbq", I was getting sick of eating at all the same places so I thought I'd take a risk and try this place out! Upon entering, the atmosphere was fun and friendly. The staff welcomed me in and sat me down immediately. My eyes gazed over the whole restaurant, very sleek and modern! I opted in for the combo A option which basically gets you to try a variety of different meats and cuts. It even comes with Kimchi Fried rice, yumm. Everything was incredible! By far my favorites were the bulgogi and marinated short ribs! Between the music, the friendly service and the food, you can bet I'll be back for more! read more

Wow! This place is super awesome, normally I have a hard time finding good korean bbq places because I can't eat meat but this place catered to my needs extremely well. The servers here are extraordinarily nice and helpful and my server, Angie I think? Helped out a lot when I asked her what my options were and she recommended multiple things that were both things I could eat and delicious! For the amount of stuff you receive the pricing is moderate but I believe the level of service that is given from this place is exceptional and the price is reasonable because of that. I highly recommend you give this place a try!! read more

If everyone here is in love with kbbq in Duluth y'all should give D92 the meat option there is among one of the best. Also thank god they came to Athens so we don't have to drive an hour every time we crave for some grill meats. Their marinated pork neck is one of the best meat there, it is so full of flavors, and their chicken is the best in my opinion it is not dry like other places. It is so worth the experience and the staffs was very friendly and helpful!! Another great thing is their lunch menu they got plenty of options for VERY good prices!! read more

Loved it! I found our eating experience to be really fun, as there were many courses on the table and a waiter who took care of us non-stop ! (..since you actually have a grill on your table, the staff manages the food on your table). The courses were varied, excellent, fresh and the right portions. Mostly again, it was fun. Courses started at $ 8, and $12 but $20 was more the average. Our waitor was top notch and to me this matters. The grill concept genuinely comes from Korea, we were told. I gave this Korean restaurant 5 stars! read more

The interior is nice, albeit a little dark with thick large curtains. Our server was so nice! I'm not sure that I'd find it as good of a value for the dinner menu, but for the lunches coming with soup and salad, and good portions for the cost, it was great.

We didn't really like that ginger salad was swimming in dressing and nearly inedible because it was so watery and sweet.

The potato was more lukewarm instead of hot the bean with ham was piping hot. My husband ordered the Kona chicken with French Fries. The chicken was actually slightly pink in the middle. He did not notice until I started cutting up his leftovers for our pup. I ordered the chicken tender salad with the house dressing. It was very delicious.
