During our first visit, I mentioned that it was our family's first time in. I had seen other yelp reviews and made dining choices from it. I ordered the bulgogi bowl- so delicious! My husband ordered the combination sushi bowl- extra delicious!!! My daughter ordered the lemon pepper chicken- yummy!! And my son ordered the grilled salmon hot bowl- very good but I like sashimi salmon better just my opinion. We also got the yummy yummy roll- OMG so good we "fought" over it lol. I knew it was a lot of food to order, but I was curious about the brussel sprouts. The server brought me a huge sample!! They were very good too but I was so full I could barely finish the entree I ordered. All portions are humongous!! They are obviously good at planning on people not being able to finish these huge portions that they have to-go boxes readily available where the silverware bar is located. The atmosphere is very comfortable and beautiful to be surrounded by. The food comes out pretty quickly. The wait staff is pleasant and attentive. Their chef is a big deal in the food biz. I don't know why this place doesn't have a line around the building! What's funny is that the week following our visit to Kitchen 121, we were supposed to go to a birria taco restaurant that I had heard about but my husband told me he was craving Kitchen 121 and my son asked why we couldn't go to Kitchen 121, so back we went! We pretty much ordered the same things but during our second visit I wanted the combination sushi bowl and my son got the bulgogi bowl. Same "fighting" over the yummy yummy roll. It's crazy because I don't usually care for fancy sushi rolls- I prefer sashimi- but this roll is amazing!!!! The crunchy outer coating and soft inner filling are perfect together. The flavors of the filling don't overwhelm each other, and the sauce adds a perfect tang! And now I want Kitchen 121 again. Wish I took pics of the food but once we got a taste, the last thing on our minds was to take a photo read more

In an effort to locate a sushi spot on the way home from work, I decided to try out Kitchen 121. Located off of Satellite Blvd., Kitchen 122 is within a small shopping lot; however, there's more than enough free parking. Social Distancing: I believe they allow dine-in, but when I arrived between 6:30p - 7pm, there wasn't a soul there besides the waitress. Even though no one was there, the dining tables were all separated to enforce social distancing. The Service: AMAZING SERVICE. I was only inside a few moments to up my order, but the waitress was extremely nice the entire time. The Food: The food was on point. I had the Double Shrimp Tempura Roll ($14) and Oriental Garlic Soy Chicken ($14). All of it was SO GOOD! I liked the Soy Chicken a little bit better, only because I ordered the Double Shrimp Tempura by accident, yet it still turned out delicious. Overall, this food was great and the staff went above & beyond! Great restaurant. read more

Consistently delicious food. The price to quality ratio is significantly above average in my experience

The atmosphere was great and the food was top notch! I came after work on a weekday and it was moderately busy - a very good sign. It's a self-seating restaurant so follow the signs to the right and order at the cashier before finding an empty table to rest. They will bring the food out to you. The utensils and water cups are located towards the back of the restaurant - just like how they do in Korea! I ordered the Combination Sushi Bowl with fresh tuna and salmon. Not too sure if it was because we came later in the day but the tuna was not as fresh as the salmon in the bowl. Not to worry as it was still in good, edible condition and did not affect the flavor of the bowl negatively. Overall will order again when I am in the mood for some healthy and fresh flavors! My boyfriend ordered the Snow Cheese Chicken with a side of rice and thoroughly enjoyed his meal. On the menu it looks like the "snow" is made of parmesan; however, it looked as though a different type of cheese was used as well, possibly powdered cheddar. The chicken was crispy and moist. Will come again to try the other menu items! read more

My friends and I were craving sushi and decided to stop by! There were many options besides sushi on the menu, which we loved. Not only did they have sushi, but they also had a variety of dishes like their signature chicken, sushi bowls, and noodles. We ended up ordering the rainbow roll sushi, the sushi bowl, and the oriental soy chicken. The service was really great, and they gave us a few dumplings in addition to our order which we were very thankful for. I thought the price was reasonable for the portion that we got. We also loved how warm and homey the interior was. I will definitely come back again with my family and friends! read more

Food was amazing, after a day out in Atlanta trying different Korean foods at festival and city events. all I was missing was some Korean fried chicken, and let me say Kitchen 121 do not disappoint.

KITCHEN 121 - Combination Sushi bowl - Sushi Bars Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

This is a really cute place in an unassuming strip mall. I would call it bistro asian. Really cute farmhouse modern style small dining room. Went here for lunch and place was not crowded. Seems to be quite a few pock ups. The menu is a lot of fresh bowls, soups, sushi and asian fried chicken. I had the combination bowl which was presented in a beautiful bounty of veggies and diced salmon and tuna. Super fresh sliced avocado brown rice and lettuce. We started with an app of fried wontons. Delicious and nice drizzle of sauce. The chicken portion was huge. Enough for another 2 meals. . The owner is a sweet asian woman who is the chef. Food is excellent and very good service. Beautiful presentation of food. Well worth trying. read more

I placed a large to-go order online for a work meeting. When I arrived to pick the order up, I was surprised that it was pretty busy even for an early lunch time of 11:30. I waited about 15 minutes past the quoted pickup time. I didn't check the order before I left, which I probably should have. When I got back to the office, the toppings for both bulgogi bowls were missing from the order. We ordered 6 entrees but only received 3 tiny cups of sauce, 4 sets of chopsticks and about 4 cocktail sized napkins. I had the combination sushi bowl, which had the potential to be really good but it was very dry and lacked seasoning. If I had about 4 more of those thimble sized cups of sauce, it would have been better. I was told by my coworker that the bulgogi bowl was also dry and lacking sauce, and of course they were missing the toppings which probably would have helped. Maybe if we had eaten in, the experience would have been better. read more

Absolutely amazing! The food was spectacular and the service was even more friendly and amazing. I wish I lived in the area so I could go here all of the time! If it's out of your way it is absolutely worth the drive. Wish I could give more stars! read more

My new favorite sushi place in town! Plus it has awesome korean fried chickens! I love the special yummy yummy roll with spicy tuna. The roll is big and filled with flavors from all the ingredients. Upon checking in, you get three fried pork dumplings. What make this even more special is the that they are fresh dumplings and not the frozen kinds. The korean fried chicken was great because it was really juicy on the inside and not overcooked like other places. The atmosphere is really cozy also. They also give you some miso soup to sip on. I will be back to try more dishes! read more

Self serve concept. Get your own water, utensils, plates, and to-go boxes. No waiter, you need to sit first then go back up to order when you are ready but the host at the register stares at you until you order. Layout was small and close quarters Food quite bland, no way the food is fresh. Definitely frozen or a couple days old. Salmon hot stone bowl - no hot stone bowl...it was a cold plastic bowl, rice was really dry and looked old, salmon was dry and chewy, Fried egg was good! Rainbow roll - sloppy made, definitely one of the cheaper rolls I've had. Quality of a grocery store maybe less. Udon soup - bland not much ingredients best part was the noodles and they were starchy. Not worth $50 meal, we ended up getting half way done and leaving. read more

저번 주말에 가족이랑 다 같이 외식할 때, 음식, 서비스, 분위기, 가격. 다 너무 좋아서 이번에 한국에서 온 친구들이랑 같이 갔는데 모든 게 엉망이었어요... 저도, 친구들도 모두 영어는 어려워서 간신히 오더 했는데, 오더 받는 외국 분이 저희를 비웃고, 서비스도 셀프여서 팁을 스킵 하자 서버분의 태도가 바뀌었어요. 음식도 테이블에 툭툭 던져서 놓고, 음식을 놓고 갈 때는 핸드폰 보며 투덜투덜 걸어가는 게 너무 불편했어요. 친구가 화장실이 어디냐고 번역기로 물어보자, 웃으며 그냥 걸어가고... 친구들 데리고 온 제가 너무 민망하네요.. 덮밥 같은 게 hot bowl이라고 시켜봤지만 밥만 산더미... 밥 양에 비해 연어가 진짜 조금 있어요....롤이랑 샐러드는 진짜 강추!! 너무 맛있어요!!! 저는 이제 투고만 할 것 같네요... read more

I've been eating here for the past couple of years and what can I say? The food is always consistent and fresh. I am very impressed! My favorite items are the salmon rice paper rolls and spicy tuna roll. Chef Ji really lets the freshness of her ingredients speak for itself. I love that she doesn't cover up the quality of her food by drenching it in sauce instead the sauce compliments the fish. I love this place so much my bridesmaids and I decided to my bridal shower here and it was a hit! The restaurant is so cute and the food is always fresh! Chef Ji is the sweetest person ever! Customer service is always superb. Come try it for yourself. read more

Today was my second time having sushi from here. I feel like the prices are reasonable and the sushi is very good! Will visit again.

I usually take to go, so I don't know much about the ambience, but the food is good. It doesn't take too long as well.

Hands down the best sushi I've had in the Atlanta, probably in Georgia. How is there not a line waiting out the door for this place? I'm just sad we didn't try it sooner. Officially our new go-to sushi restaurant. Yum. So freaking full, but happy full. Yummy yummy Baked salmon Salmon avocado Spicy tuna Shrimp tempura Salmon roll appetizer read more

Not a bad spot for Japanese. Nice interior with decent amount of seating for a small location. You have options beyond just sushi. You can order other more traditional Japanese dishes line udon noodles for example. The tempura and fried squid balls were fried with great texture and crunch. The sushi was pretty good as well. It didn't taste too fishy and felt relatively fresh. In terms of service, didn't have too many complaints. The food was served without too long of a wait. The waiter checked on us often but not too often as well. Overall, a pretty decent experience. With the price and selections available you can't go wrong with a lot of the dishes. Safe and simple Japanese dishes. Sometimes simple is a good thing and that's the case. Simple and straight to the point. read more

Went here with a girlfriend for a lunch date as she's a fan of the place. I have it bookmarked so it was high time I went. I think this place is a solid 3 1/2 stars for me, but I'll round up. Psst. Don't forget the Yelp check-in offer (I went for the tako yaki). The tako yaki (octopus dumpling) came with 4 pieces. They were interesting as the inside housed octopus balls surrounded by a fried dough. I would definitely rec this. I ordered the fresh tuna sushi bowl while my friend ordered the baked salmon roll. Since both were sushi items, we both were served miso soup alongside our entrees. The sushi bowl had nice colors and a great presentation. If you mix it up super well, there's a slight sauce at the very bottom. The bed mixture was half rice and half lettuce. Overall, it was okay. I thought there could have been more tuna pieces to be honest. The baked salmon roll was sizable (8 pieces) and pretty tasty. There were only a few cooked sushi options so my friend went for it. The presentation was nice as well. I should have went for the Korean fried chicken as this seems to be their newest creation. Perhaps we will meet next time. 121 Salad & Sushi Bowl is right next door to Starbucks if you're wondering exactly where it is. I know I almost missed it. Ha! read more

Located in the shopping plaza on Old Peachtree Rd with Five Guys and Starbucks. Parking is super limited and congested due to Starbucks. Arrive early or park in the back area of the complex. Indoor is clean and decorated with a few tables and 1 long picnic style table. Order food at the counter and have a seat until your food arrives. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. They even offered samples for us to try. I had to get the fried boneless chicken and they both were delicious! I also ordered a fried salmon roll which was also good. This is quite the gem and I highly urge patrons to feel the novelty of this dinning experience. Be sure to find the mystery of "What's Your 121?" read more

If you want sushi and customer service done right, ROLL up in here! Came by on a Friday night around 7. The place wasn't busy yet, but there were other diners there. The space is small, but has plenty of seating. Nice modern rustic decor. I had a difficult time looking for the restaurant. Fortunately, my hubs arrived before me and was able to tell me how to locate it. It's right next to Starbucks. Ample parking. First off, the service is FANTASTIC! The staff was super, super friendly, helpful, and attentive. The chef/owner herself visited each table and chatted with customers. She was very sweet! They all went above and beyond to make our experience a memorable one. We ordered the following: Crispy Brussel Sprouts $8 Octopus Takoyaki $8 (complimentary with Yelp check-in at the time of our visit) Cucumber Roll $9 121 Special Eel Roll $14 Fresh Tuna Sushi Bowl $11 Wow, AMAZING!!! The crispy brussel sprouts had the perfect crunch flavor. Loved all the textures. The complimentary octopus takoyaki came with three 3 balls and were crispy on the outside and chewy (octopus) on the inside. The cucumber roll was a refreshing change from the usual sushi we order. The rolls were big and came with crab stick, avocado, red cabbage, and sweet vinegar dressing. The 121 special eel roll came with shrimp tempura, crab mix, avocado, cucumber, topped with fresh water eel, tempura flakes, honey mayo, and eel sauce. Delicious! These rolls were big in size and flavor! The fresh tuna sushi bowl came with rice, avocado, radish, seaweed, and more. Fresh indeed! Had a wonderful meal and experience. Prices were reasonable and portions were good. Will be back! read more

We stopped in on New Year's Eve after a long day away from home. I quickly read other reviews and thought we'd give a try. I can see why the reviews were great. I ordered lemon pepper chicken, my family ordered rolls and soup. Everything was delicious and ordering was a breeze. The restaurant, and restrooms, were clean. I'm glad we gave Kitchen 121 a try, we will definitely be back. read more

Cute little spot. The food was pretty good and reasonably priced. would recommend if you want some Asian Fusion dishes

Very good food and service. The worker was very nice and very helpful while ordering. The portion size was more the enough for me and my tots to share and the food was delicious. I would more than recommend the oriental soy garlic chicken, it was my favorite thing on the menu. The restaurant was also very homey and gave us refuge during a hurricane like storm. Eat here if you want the best Korean fried chicken in the south east. #121 read more

I can't say enough about what an incredible experience my friend Morgan and I had at Kitchen 121. Sushi was fresh and perfectly prepared, seaweed salad was on point, chicken was incredible and the wonderful owner Jiyoung came out mid-meal to make sure we were enjoying and gave us the most delicious orange drink I've ever had. Can't give this place a higher review. . Price was also very reasonable. Will be back next time in town for sure. read more

First of all, the customer service is excellent. They take orders quickly. They also explain the menu and the dine-in process for first-timers. Next, the restaurant is clean and organized. There is a section for utensils and napkins (self-served). They sanitize the table before and after. They even have used and sanitized cups for pens lol. Most importantly, the food is heavenly good. We got the combination sushi bowl (tuna, salmon, vegetables, brown rice, and special sauce), bulgogi hot bowl (side with bowl of veggies), and double shrimp tempura rolls. They give us two pieces of dumplings for appetizers. Thank you. This is my first time and I will be back with my family. Thank you so much for the service and food. read more

Great local find. Ordered to go. Big portions and delicious meals. We purchased hot tofu bowl, udon noodle soup, and mini avocado roll. The tofu bowl was a hefty meal. Warm not overly fried tofu was cut in cubes and well seasoned. Lightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Honestly one of my favorites renderings of tofu out there. The rest of the bowl consisted of a bed a rice with vegetables. I had this same bowl for lunch and dinner. The udon noodle soup warmed the soul on this rainy day. Soup came packaged separately from the noodles for transport purposes. Classic thick cut noodles. Plenty to share and actually also lasted for 2 meals. The mini avocado roll was a cute tiny bite sized vege sushi dish. It was surprisingly tasty for something so simple. Just avo and rice wrapped in seaweed but so yummy. My wife and I will definitely be coming back and exploring more of the menu. read more

Very good sushi! Tried the Special Eel Roll and absolutely loved it~~ my friend tried the Nigiri and Udon combo and she enjoyed her meal as well! They added mushrooms with the udon and we thought that was interesting but was still a good mix with the noodles. The menu has less items compared to other sushi restaurants but I'm excited to come back and try the other rolls! :) Also, this restaurant is fairly small but cozy! All the utensils, plates, and cups for water are stationed in one area of the restaurant where you can grab by yourself. You also have to order your meal and pay at the cashier first before sitting down. read more

I came here for the bowls. After looking them up online, I had to see if the bowls were as colorful in person and they were. Great flavor in the sushi bowl with everything you need for a healthy treat that tastes good. The eel roll had thick chunks of eel on top with crab and shrimp tempura inside.

Loved the sushi bowl and the hot bowl. Good service. I want to go back and try their Sunday brunch with the mini poke bowls if they still do it. Hubby got the combo sushi bowl and the tuna/smoked salmon were delicious. The ingredients are simple and they don't overdo it with sauce choices. There's poke sauce and soy sauce on the table and you add as much or as little as you want. The hot bowl was amazing! The tofu was tender and cooked perfectly. I loved this tofu!! The toppings come on the side. read more
