Buffet
Soojin K.

By far my favorite hotpot place. The price is amazing for all you can eat. I choose the 1 tray of meat option because there is so much to eat from the buffet. The people there are so kind and attentive. The buffet is very clean, always fresh and it is getting replenished constantly. The buffet has all types of veggies, dumplings, desserts, tradition korean drinks, hot foods, and two sauce making stands. I love their current bingsu station. Even when I moved to Chicago, I missed this restaurant.

Came for the AYCE! I got the new soup to try, jjampong! And it was sooo good! It actually tasted like jampong! Wish it was a little spicier but nothing that couldn't be fixed with my own spicy dipping sauce. I also love the concept of having your own pot, it is so much easier to eat when you can just cook what you want and not have to dig through a big pot (cleaner too!) The meats we got and kept getting was the beef rib eye slices! They were so good and had the perfect amount of fatty on it. There were also a lot of selection in the hot bar! I tried the cold noodles but it was very salty! The japchae was delicious tho. The sauce bar was also very clean and stocked up pretty well. I do wish there were more vegetables option if I'm honest. Like enoki mushrooms, different tofu options, yam. But other than that, even if you don't get meat here the veges are pretty filling! Esp with the hot bar. I enjoyed the bingsu machine so much! What an amazing addition! It was so fluffy and perfectly shaved. I also love the powder they have to put on it! Will definitely look forward to coming back here.

Came here for lunch on a weekday. Overall, it was just okay. The quality was decent -- I ordered the brisket as my one meat plate, and it was pretty good. There were a lot of options in the buffet for toppings like veggies, noodles, and sauces, which I appreciated. But most of the buffet items tasted a bit stale, like they had been sitting out for a while (understandable for a lunch service, but still noticeable). Next time I come back, I'd probably try the unlimited meat option and just focus on that, since that seemed like the main draw here.

This is my favorite shabu ayce spot, their buffet selection is huge, lots of veggie, noodle, fishcakes, and korean hot dishes. My favorite thing is the cute bear broth ice.

My niece and I visited this restaurant, and it was absolutely delicious--well worth the drive from Athens! They offer an incredible variety of options, including tteokbokki (Korean spicy rice cakes), sushi, and a great selection of refreshing drinks. The buffet area is full of flavorful choices, making it a wonderful spot for anyone, whether you prefer vegan options or enjoy meat and seafood. For those on the vegan side, you can skip the meat prices and still enjoy the hotpot and buffet selections. But if you're a meat lover, this place is a must-visit. For only $40, you can indulge in an all-you-can-eat experience featuring premium meats, hotpot, and seafood. The quality, variety, and overall experience make it an excellent value. Truly worth the trip and highly recommended! The ambiance was amazing not too loud where you cant talk, and service was amazing cups where always refilled

Clean and spacious all you can eat hot pot in Duluth! The vegetables are fresh and there's so many options to choose from. They also have soba noodles, sushi, and refreshing drinks that come with the all you can eat package. Meat can be purchased separately. Reasonably priced hot pot. Service was attentive. Definitely will be coming back!

*9 broths: dashi(anchovy seaweed based), vegetable/spicy dashi, vegetable beef bone, mara. 3 new broths: deungchon(korean authentic spicy), tomato, udon-dashi *Basic shabu buffet: +70 vegetables, mushrooms, fishcakes, dumpling, noodles and more *If you wanna enjoy real shabu, you have to order protein: - One plate of protein from $7.99-$9.99 - Combo A is just like the basic shabu buffet but includes 1 plate of meat or seafood of your choice with $7, which is $2 cheaper - If you can eat more than 2 plates of protein, choosing unlimited for $37.99 would be better choice. - They have new protein - bulgogi(sweet soysauce based seasoning), which is perfect match with udon-dashi. *K-food and more - Tteokboggi, fried dumpling, fried rice, house-made kimchi, soba naodle - shrimp tempura roll, california roll, spring roll - dessert: fruit, salads, rice punch, cinnamon punch, pudding This place is every Buffet lovers paradise. The ambiance of the place was very clean and 9292 is just a great place to eat good hotpot on a chilly day. This is a must try if you are looking for something to warm the soul.

We met up with a friend here and overall experience was pretty good. Lots of food items to choose from and it's AYCE! They have a menu for choosing variety of meats and broth type. We all went with the bone broth. They also have a buffet style for choosing your vegetables, fish balls, tofu, to make your sauce and condiments, etc. the broth comes tasteless with no salt or pepper. It's kind of self service and you the only thing that requires service is beverages, ordering meats, and more broth. I am normally use to flavored broth in shabu shabu and I can see why they made it without salt and pepper so you can flavor it yourself but I'd personally like some flavor to it. Other than that, everything was great! I'd totally try it again if I'm in town because of the variety of options in the buffet. Place is bigger than it looks! Great for small or large groups. Till then, let's eat!

This is the spot where I come for hotpot... but somehow end up getting full off the buffet sides instead . Like, where else can you load up on tteokbokki, soba noodles, sushi rolls, fried rice, jello, and fruit salad all in one go?! For broth, I personally loved the udon dashi (goes well w beef bulgogi) and beef bone broth--both packed with deep flavors! And for dipping, the black sesame and peanut sauce were my go-to for that rich, nutty flavor. Oh, and the bunny pudding costs an extra $3, but it's SO cute--honestly might be worth it just for the picture... service was good, if you come during weekend or rush hour(lunch/dinner time) it might get busy.

As I already tried their bbq restaurant and the experience was great. I've heard that they also have a hotpot restaurant so today I gave it try. The food and meat was phenomenal, especially their buffet line. You can find anything from fresh vegetable to side dishes like japchae and Korean rice cake. The restaurant today is quite staff-short so when I pressed the calling button, no one came most of the time. The price to me is quite expensive too. I understand that their buffet line was great but $30 without unlimited meat is sup rising for me. Beside that, the restaurant is clean and very welcoming. Overall, this place is fire but because of the price, I would not go back for a while.

A friend and I came here during lunch. It was busy! We sat down at a booth and this place is spacious! We came for the AYCE and we can choose our broth. I got the spicy dashi and off we go to fill our plates. They have so many varieties to choose from. We got plenty of greens: kale, spinach, mushrooms, dumplings, meatballs, fishballs, sweet potato, malanga, kimchi, etc. They also brought out large plates of meat and seafood for us to start. Everything was fresh and delicious. They do limit your time, but we sat there for a while and no one rushed us. We were only able to get 2 plates of meat/seafood before we were full. I would definitely come back just for the AYCE. It was more than enough food to fill me up. We weren't able to eat as much meat as we intended to. But good service and nice selection of food. We left with full and happy bellies!

Sophia J.

This was a random place I dine in at during my visit in Georgia and I say my money was well spent here! There were so many choices to choose to put in my shabu shabu while it was super fresh! On top of that, the side dishes, menu and dessert options were so nice too! One thing that I personally really liked was that the servers brought us plentiful meat and not just few pieces at a time. Also the servers were very kind and provided a good service. The restaurant is very big so each tables are decently apart from each other and I liked how bright it was!!

Claire S.

-big veggie selection -meat quality is okayy -service was mostly good; depends on the staff -price is decent for AYCE -hot bar fried rice is weirdly pretty good; but everything else is meh -peanut sauce w chili oil and green onion and garlic and black pepper and jalapeño is my fav sauce combo

So tasty

See all

Do you need reservations for a Saturday around 4-7? Would it be too crowded to just walk in for a group of 4?

Dreamland BBQ

You can find Dreamland BBQ at 3540 W Lawrenceville St Duluth, GA 30096. This is in the heart of the…read morea shopping/restaurant complex at the intersection of Main Street and Lawrenceville Street, bound by Hill Street towards the rear. Dreamland faces the back towards Abbots Bridge Road, there's a large parking lot out front but good luck finding parking there, especially on busy weekends. I recommend going around the corner and parking in front of Coleman Middle School across the street (when school is out of session like on weekends). Otherwise I'd time my visits to off-hours and during the week day. Where to begin with this one? I was a frequent visitor to the Dreamland BBQ that occupied a free-standing building on Peachtree Parkway, just south east of the Forum. From what I remember that building had a fire and I believe that this location is where the restaurant ended up. To start, this is a massive space with high ceilings, a large bar and plenty of seating - very different from the cozy confines of the original location. We attended the exceptional Le Bon fest held by Goodword Brewing nearby and being ready for something more substantial than a few oysters, we ended up at Dreamland. It took a while to be seated as there wasn't anyone out front - there was one booth already seated in an otherwise empty restaurant, so it could be our timing wasn't the best. We ended up being seated at the bar and our server was delightful, super nice and personable. When I went to the restroom to wash my hands, as soon as I touched the single sink valve, water geysered into the air about 4 feet. The other sink wasn't working at all. Anyway I managed, and also reported what was happening as there really wasn't a way to turn it off. My friend Ken ordered the roasted chicken with a double side of green beans. I ordered the half-slab and deferred ordering any sides as from experience, 6 bones tend to be a lot of meat. What I received was something of a joke - the bones were tiny and hardly had any meat on them filling about half the basket. Now I understand that sometimes getting the smaller side of a rack, you end up with less food, but this was somewhat ridiculous. It's been a long time since I've left a BBQ place hungry, but there it is. If the service had been bad I probably would have left a 1 star review, but I'll give the place the benefit of the doubt. Very disappointing.

This young lady greeted guests as they arrived in the door with the most pleasant disposition that I have ever seen, and I will tell you why she was so fantastic in a minute. We were promptly seated as she politely asked us to please be patient with her as she was THE only one working that evening. This young woman was the greeter, the server, the bartender, the food runner, and the bus boy. She did it all with a gracious attitude that I have ever seen one person muster. Although it was a Wednesday night, there were a few people inside and it could have been a task that quickly became overwhelming, but it did not for her. Kuddos to this young lady! The fries were not greasy. They were crispy, soft, and plentiful. I would recommend giving Dreamland a try not only for the food but also to look at the decor and take it all in.

Best BBQ is a Cantonese food stall located inside Great Wall Supermarket. They sell favorites like…read moreroast pork and duck as well as dim sum. Out of all the food stalls in the food court, this one was the most popular when I went. It was pretty lively in the back corner, which is where this place is located. I thought the service was fine. The workers are there to get work done, not to perform outstanding customer service. I got the Crispy Pork on Rice! I love getting this meal at these Cantonese/Chinese places. I found the pork belly to be really tasty. There was a nice marinade over the skin and meat, plus the skin was pretty crispy even when some of the pieces got a little too moist inside the container. I thought there was a generous portion of the crispy pork in my meal. There were some mustard greens in the rice plate which added nice variation in taste. I also got a small cup of complementary soup on the side which I did not try but it did smell good. Overall, I think that my meal was pretty good. I would probably come back if I am ever inside the Great Wall Supermarket.

Don't know why I never rate this place. But this is probably the freshest dim sum you'll get…read more Located in the food court of Great Wall Supermarket, you can find a variety of dim sum plates plus all the entrees they have.

This time, I brought my friend who has never had Korean bbq before for her to try. We went right when it opened so it was quiet. I told the server it was her first time and he was eager to explain everything to her. I don't think she was prepared at all what was about to grace our table He brought out a cart full of side dishes and start to explain what each one is along with the flavor profile. When he got to the scallion salad, she was just not loving it, but he told her to at least try and see what she thinks (don't knock it til you try it!) Then he said they're still getting the charcoal ready so it'll be a few more minutes and my friend's eyes just (like what?) So we start with trying a bite of all the sides. She enjoyed everything except the sliced onion salad. Surprisingly, she loved everything else, including the scallion salad! She's a texture eater, so I was weary of her trying the tofu, but she really enjoyed that too! So... the charcoal comes out, and she's just Then the server brings the grill with the cheesy corn, spicy bean sprout, and he poured in the eggs. Followed by the meats! Since she didn't really know what she likes, I made a few suggestions and the server suggests letting him bring us the most popular items first and we can work our way through the menu. What a great idea!! Started with brisket and ribeye and wow ... meats were fresh, paired with the sides, and the dipping sauces, it's just chef's kiss!! We then had bulgogi and pork belly and those were just bursting with flavor! The cheesy corn was good but burned too fast on the grill, the spicy bean sprouts are amazing, and the steam egg is my favorite . The only downside is that if you don't eat those sides that are cooking on the grill right away they'll turn dry and burned and it won't be as good. The cheesy corn also caused some splattering to our hands when we were cooking the meats. The server apologized for the oil splattering since he heard the squeal immediately soak up the oil from the cheesy corn so the splattering would stop. Overall, my friend gave it 10/10!!!
