    It was my first time there and I loved the food! The service was amazing, our server Lisa was so friendly and nice to me and my friend! I would definitely recommend and definitely coming back!

    I was pleasantly surprised by this new KBBQ spot. The atmosphere was great right when we walked in--the interior was nice, and the music was at just the right volume so we could actually hear each other. It's such a relief to go somewhere where you don't have to shout while eating, like at some other places. What really stood out was the rack they place on the grill for the cooked meat. I've only seen one other place do that, but I honestly think everyone should do it. Most places transfer the cooked meat to a plate, and as someone who eats a bit slower, I don't like how the meat gets cold so quickly and doesn't taste as good. Keeping it on a rack on the grill solves that problem without letting it burn, which is genius. The quality of the meat was great--none of that weird meaty smell you sometimes get at other spots with the non-marinated cuts. The side dishes were all solid, but I especially loved the pickled radish and jalapeños. The soybean paste soup was another highlight because they put brisket in it. A lot of places tend to go heavy on the anchovies, giving the soup a strong fishy flavor, but theirs didn't have that problem. I must mention that the service was excellent. Everyone was really friendly and attentive, and a special shout-out to Isaac, our main server--he was fantastic! I like how they also offer regular dishes that aren't BBQ, so we'll definitely have to go back to try some of those.

    We chose a soup (choice of 3 options) and went with the cheese corn and the egg soufflé as our sides.

    Great atmosphere, food was well prepared. Service was friendly and always available. Took my date…read morethere and saw others were on a date, too!

    (Would absolutely return, but my jeans may never forgive me)…read moreThrill Korean Steak and BBQ - Buford, GA First impressions: We walked into Thrill expecting the usual KBBQ chaos -- screaming tabletop grills, flying lettuce, and that one friend who overcooks everything into charcoal briquettes. Instead we got... vibes? Like, actual nice vibes. The place is sleek, modern, and somehow smells like victory and garlic at the same time. Dangerous combination. Service: 10/10, no notes. We never had to wave anyone down for more banchan, which in KBBQ is basically a miracle on par with parting the Red Sea. Food: Oh honey. * Banchan game: Strong. The kimchi was doing backflips on my tongue, the potato salad was creamy crack, the fried rice cakes were so addictive I considered hiding them in my purse. * Meat quality: Top tier. The pork jowl (samgyeopsal) was so fatty and glorious I briefly considered proposing to it. The "Thrill Prime Ribeye" lives up to the hype -- marbled like a Renaissance painting and basically melts. We also tried the garlic soy marinated galbi and I'm still thinking about it during meetings. Rude. * One tiny gripe: The spicy pork bulgogi could've used another punch of heat. My husband (who thinks black pepper is "wild") loved it, but I wanted it to slap me a little harder. Value: Very solid for the quality. $50ish per person all-you-can-eat and we waddled out feeling like we robbed the place. Pro tip: Pace yourself or you'll hit the meat coma wall around round three and start making bad life choices (see: ordering dessert). Atmosphere: Clean, bright, great ventilation (my hair did not smell like a campfire, which is a first in the history of Korean BBQ). They've got K-pop or the tv playing but not at migraine volume, so you can actually hear your dining companions confess their sins between bites. Verdict: Thrill is dangerously good. Buford finally has a KBBQ spot that can hang with the Atlanta heavyweights, and it's somehow less than 10 minutes from the Mall of Georgia (perfect for post-shopping regret eating). Bring stretchy pants, an empty stomach, and friends who won't judge you when you hit the order your 4 round of meats or drinks. We're already plotting our return. My waistline is filing a formal complaint, but I'm ignoring it.

    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.

The brisket was so juicy and pork belly nice and thick. Our server was always ready to change our grill or get the next meat cooked.

Absolutely fantastic Korean BBQ can be had at Cow Wow Korean BBQ and the service and ambiance was superb as well so no minus stars there. We came for a late lunch and enjoyed a relaxed and very enjoyable Korean BBQ meal and everything was to a very high standard. Health score and proper handling of the food is no longer a concern whatsoever. They are open late till 2:00 a.m. so late eaters can enjoy some mean Korean BBQ grilled over charcoal. Honestly, this has to be one of the top three Korean barbecue places in all of Georgia and possibly even in all of USA. 5 stars is an understatement. Thank you Cow Wow!
