Top 3 Korean Restaurants in Atlanta Make You Feel Like You Are Eating In Seoul

I love Korean culture. I used to live and study in Seoul, South Korea for a while, and I found out that Korean cuisine is a lot more than just Kimchi and Ramen. That is when I started to love Korean food.

I found this restaurant through Yelp on a starving night when no other chicken place opened. The first impression I have with this restaurant is, wow, the radish is a bomb. The taste is exactly how I used to eat it in Seoul. It brought all the memories I made in Seoul with just one bite, and I appreciate it so much. The interior inside is bright and cozy, and most of their customers are Koreans that bring the same atmosphere as you are eating in Seoul. Another thing that makes me fall in love with this place is that they serve chicken pieces in decent bites, through which it enough to keep the pieces crispy outside and juicy inside.

Seo Ra Beol $$

Here comes my favorite traditional Korean food restaurant. The food is always cooked with care, and delivery dedicate taste. Inside the restaurant is separated into two parts, one is for usual dining area, and one is a BBQ area with grill plates. It is Korean trusted. Whenever I came in, almost every customer in the restaurant is Korean. The only disadvantage is some waitresses don’t know much English, so please be careful and check twice after ordered.

Honey Pig $$$

A cultural characteristic of South Korea is BBQ. And my go-to-restaurant is Honey Pig. They offer a lot of side dishes, which include delicious and addictive Corn Cheese. They have a huge round grill plate on each table for a lot of food that can be cooked on at once. And what I like best about it is that they grill the kimchi, just like how Koreans usually do it. Overall, the restaurant is small and dark, and they will be super crowded on the weekends, so get yourself there early. The price for All-you-can-eat set is higher than most of the BBQ places in the area, but I can promise it’s worth the hype. And their customer’s services are also very friendly and helpful.
