I love the food here. When you enter the restaurant, it’s a whole new vibe and totally different from how it is outside. Really good food, enjoyed the spice level. Parking is tricky, there are lots in front but gets filled up quickly. Will definitely recommend this place. There was no waiting,went on a weekday night.

Off the beaten path and DELICIOUS. We had awesome drinks and really great food. The brussels were a great app (and a generous portion). Service was speedy and kind! We’ll definitely return on our next trip to ATL.

One of my favorite places to eat in EAV. It's tucked into an alley but don't let that fool you. It's a large spaciousness inside with a hidden patio. Fried chicken, beef bugulgi, scallion pancakes, and shashito peppers are my recommendations.

Curb appeal is zero some pretty sketch people outside and the entrance was hard to find but those sketch people ended up helping us find the door LOL but the prices are great our server was amazing and the food was even better

Found this place by accident. Damn incredible service and food. We came in with no expectations but the drink turn around time was super fast and tasty. And the food is flavorful and tasty.

One of my new favorite restaurants in the Atlanta area! Everything we had was very good and the pricing is reasonable. We’ll definitely be back!

A fun punk rock themed korean bar. A little difficult to spot but a really fun place. Do recommend!

I ordered the Kimchi Fried rice. It tasted good but there were clumps of old, crunchy rice mixed in. I had the Iggy Pop cocktail and it was damn good. My BF had the tuna bowl and loved it. The service was perfect. The bathroom was scary and dirty. We’ll come back but please clean the bathrooms ?

An Atlanta Bar with Korean Food TheaterNot a SINGLE Korean either in front of or behind the bar. That is all you need to know, but by all means, read on. It’s just a Korean theme, really - you should get Korean food anywhere else and then drink where you’d like.I order Chum Churum, ask about the two varieties on display, and the bartender on Valentine’s Day gives me the Good Day flavors ?Numerical scores are out of TEN. Banchan: 6Components:Potato salad soup? 6. Flavor is good.Radish: 5. Mild.Blanched broccoli with splash of bitter sesame sauce: 4.Kimchi: 7. Probably the good green brand from Costco, it’s not like they’re burying clay pots out back.Beef bibimbap: 3/10I didn’t know they made dolsot this small.Definitely the worst Bibimbap I’ve had in my life (excepting the places that cost less than half of this). I stirred it until I discovered the one piece of beef about the size of a sardine … or … that may have been a mushroom? Not a single drop of gochujang to be found (that’s my favorite bit - if you give me one rammy then I may order a second). Greens bitter with little flavor.I had been fasting for four days and am still this unimpressed.

Very interesting experience. Big tall industrial building, thrash music as background (volume low enough to talk over it), Asian street vibe decoration, and on top of that the food is good. Don't know much about Korean food but this place rules.
