    Hands down, the BEST KBBQ experience ever! I will admit, it is extremely pricey, but it's worth it. The ambiance is very upscale and sensual and LET ME TELL YOU our server was FINE AF! I do not know his name but he looks exactly like DK from Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift! Whew! Keep him, I woulda tipped him $100 if I coulda lol. Anyways, the food was VERY fresh and well organized on the table. Check out the pictures I uploaded. All in all, I will definitely be back, hopefully with my partner. Again, this is an upscale, pricey KBBQ spot so if you're on a tight budget, don't come here unless you plan on spending at least $200. Literally the best in Atlanta.

    One of my new favorite KBBQ restaurant that happens to be in Uptown ATL. Enjoyed a nice dinner and service was pretty good too. Nice premium beef and excellent quality fresh side dishes, a bit more than other KBBQ restaurants.

    So this is a cool Korean barbecue spot. It's fairly new so it doesn't have a lot of buzz at the older ones have, but it's still pretty cool. It's very clean and the bar is set up in a really nice way. This is in the uptown area. Small little restaurant and a bar district in Buckhead. They don't have free parking so keep that in mind, but at the same time if you're going for like 2 hours you might pay $13. It isn't terrible. I guess. In Atlanta you've paid more I'm sure LOL. But there is parking right in front of the buildings so at least easy access. If you want to drive around to the structure, there's also Park in air as well. I actually didn't do the Korean BBQ sauce when I went last time, I only did drinks. But it depends on when, but I would consider going to do the food as well. You want to check the menu and check the Instagram to see when they have reasonable pricing available for that. But I was looking at the food options and smelling all the food while I was at the bar. It smelled really good. They were Johnny on the spot when it came in customer service.

    Side dishes and grill. Corn and other sides are excellent!

    An elevated Korean BBQ experience right by Lindbergh Center MARTA station in Buckhead - this was quite a pleasant experience! We stopped by on the way to our car (parking unknown here - seems like all paid lot parking, though MARTA parking is free with a validated ticket...) as this was right next to the entrance to MARTA, next to 26 Thai. Not very busy on an early Saturday, so we had some of the most excellent service seen at a KBBQ restaurant. Staff were pleasant, attentive, and cooked for us. Not sure how the cooking experience would be if it were busier, but they definitely kept our grill well attended. This is a more premium kbbq experience, so getting the all you can eat might have not been the right decision. The meat selection is somewhat varied, but limited to fewer selections. Highlight was the seasoned steak. Most other tables got the set menus which came out on a fully dressed tray with a little bonsai tree! AYCE at $50 is higher than most other places and quality is about the same. The tomahawk steak and more premium cuts I think are the draw here, not an AYCE experience. Sides and banchan were quite good. Restaurant is very modern and clean inside, bathrooms were nice, and experience is intended to be more classy than your oily floor kpop blasting restaurant (don't get me wrong those are wonderful).

    Food was amazing! We've tried set for 2 ppl, and it was amazing! Meats were very good and tender, sides are great too. My favorite sides were kimchi, pickled radishes and cucumbers! Waiter was very friendly and helpful, place itself is cute! Definitely recommend to visit if in the area!

    My favorite Korean bbq spot in Atlanta! My friend and I were looking for different KBBQ places to try out and despite their high prices compared to other locations, we decided to check this place out. They give off a high end bbq house feel with nice fancy decors, seating, and lighting. The menu is very simple. Like most KBBQ places, they have the a la carte option or the all you can eat option. I'd normally go with the all you can eat, but the meats I wanted were only a la carte, so we ended up ordering two servings of brisket and a serving of the sirloin. Both were really good, but the brisket, slightly grilled crispy definitely took the win. While the staff cooks your meats, they do ask for your preference on how you'd like it cooked. Their side dishes were also abundant and diverse, highly recommend their kimchi and pickled jalapeños; really spicy. Their soft drinks come out in bottles, so definitely better than those foundation drinks. The staff were very professional and kind. The gentleman who helped grill our meats made sure everything was cooked to our likings and even offered to bring out some extra briskets because the ones we had got slightly over cooked. Definitely great customer service. Now the costs is above average here and some can questions if it's worth it, but factoring in the quality of the meat and dining experience, to me it was worth it and I highly recommend those looking for more of an upscale KBBQ shop to try Bene. Parking is tough as it's all street parking and there actually aren't many spots around the area.

    I've visited Bene Korean BBQ twice for lunch, and both times have been great. The restaurant's elegant ambiance, with its minimal yet classy decor, sets a refined tone. Service was consistently excellent during both of my visits. I've particularly enjoyed the Dol-Sot Bibimbap with Spicy Pork ($14.99). The dish had a vibrant mix of fresh vegetables, and the spicy sauce provided a satisfying kick. I've also enjoyed the Chicken Bulgogi Box ($13.99) and the Korean Fried Chicken ($11.99). The chicken was juicy and flavorful in both of these entrees. My partner absolutely loves the Galbi Lunch Box ($18.99). The beef short ribs were perfectly marinated and grilled to perfection. All of our entrees were accompanied by a hearty soup, a refreshing salad with a wonderfully sweet dressing, and three flavorful side dishes. Personally, I think compared to the other options in Atlanta, Bene is an awesome choice for Korean food.

    Really wanted to LOVE this place because I LOVE Korean bbq and was so excited to try out a new spot outside of Duluth. Here's my breakdown on why I felt like I had to leave such a low star review: For starters the price of the set we ordered was $329.99 all beef to serve 4-5 people. We had 3 people and ate almost all of the meat. The meat quality was not bad and they had a great selection of cuts included, but for the price of it... I would have rather gone to kangs kitchen or 9292, you can get sets there for the same quantity and quality at a much lower price. The banchans were disappointing and dishes such as rice, stew, corn cheese, and egg soufflé were all an additional cost. Again, I just do not feel the cost was justified. Our servers were great and the interior was aesthetically pleasing, but I don't think I would visit again.

    For the past few years, I've been rooting for the Uptown development to take off. Arguably one of the best locations in Atlanta due to the property being equidistant from the cores of Midtown and Buckhead AND it being a major transfer point along the MARTA rail system. For some reason (likely due to the high volumes of strip clubs and 24/7 happy ending spas) this area hasn't taken off... That is until Bene arrived I heard glowing reviews from this platform and I LOVE Korean BBQ. I starved myself for most of the day just so I could properly enjoy this experience. A friend and I decided to split the beef & pork combo ($119) and we of course got bottle after bottle of deliciously sweet and slightly minacious soju (they have every flavor you can imagine here!!). I know that seems expensive - but you candidly get what you pay for. First, all the sides came out. I'm a true believer in judging a Korean BBQ place's merit by the attention to detail an establishment places on its sides. The accompaniments here were the tastiest I've had out of any KBBQ place I've ever been. Special attention has to be given to the tofu stew - which had such a rich depth of flavor I almost shed a tear. You get 3 salads here and all of them were conscientiously dressed and varied in both texture and flavor profiles, creating a gradient from slightly bitter to moderately sweet. These salads provided an excellent caesura between copious amounts of meat eating. Now to the headliner - THE MEAT. I said previously you get what you pay for here. The $120 combo left me breathless in terms of both the variety and quality of the meat (and matsutake mushrooms!!) This is honestly one of the first times I walked away from a KBBQ experience and felt blissfully satisfied and not like I was hanging on for dear life like a bloated tick. The beef they use was succulent and lean (not the cheap stuff that's speckled in fat and tendon that you'll get at those $45 AYCE places). The pork belly almost brought me to my knees in a state of either intense prayer or passionate lust. Since we're in the Lindbergh / Cheshire Bridge neighborhood, it was probably the latter. Bene is a destination restaurant in one of the most convenient areas to get to in all of metro Atlanta. I urge everyone to visit this sanctuary of meat and Soju.

    4.8/5 Tried the all you can eat set and really enjoyed them all especially the spicy pork, Also really loved all the side dishes too! Service was excellent they help cook the meat well as well as serve it to you. Cute upscale vibe as well

    Grade = B+ We went for lunch and selected the $49.99 all-you-can eat option, which includes a wide variety of beef, pork, and chicken cuts. While not spectacular, Bene delivered a good experience. The BBQ was well seasoned and flavorful, and the sides were fairly abundant. Their ambiance is modern and stylish, and the service was courteous. Our favorite option in the all-you-can-eat menu was the fruit-infused Bulgogi. Very good! We were only disappointed by the one extra appetizer we ordered - their Korean Fried Chicken (sweet soy option). Bland and nothing special. Ultimately it was good value for money - before tipping, we paid $125 for a two-person meal (AYCE for 2, one extra appetizer, only water, no alcohol or dessert).

    My 10 yr old wants to give it 6 stars even though he knows it's it possible. The enthusiasm from him is overwhelming and I'd ask him to stop but he's got some solid points. The service here is amazing. They go above and beyond to ensure the experience is top notch. Shout out to the entire team. The quality of meat is great it's by far the best Korean BBQ inside the perimeter. The others inside of Atlanta usually struggle with quality of meat and quality of side dishes. The prices are definitely higher than other bbq spots but it is in the city the atmosphere is much more upscale and the service is much more attentive. My kid says it's definitely worth the money as he walked to the bathroom as the check was dropped (cheap ass). The fact that they have a full bar now is nice and will definitely start to draw more people to the Korean bbq world. Lindbergh is headed in a nice direction. Little fancy Buford highway in the city.

    Finally got to try this new elevated Korean Steakhouse in Buckhead! The meat was perfectly prepared, I tried cuts like the marinated galbi and tomahawk steak, and they are grilled to melt-in-your-mouth perfection. The butter shrimp is rich and flavorful, and the seafood pancake is a must-try, with its thick, crispy texture and generous portions of seafood, including oysters! Will definitely come back!

    Delicious jigae.

The side dishes are just simply better with robust authentic seasoning and unforgettable flavor that leaves you craving for more. The kimchi is spot on for spice but not overwhelming. The potatoes are to die for, cooked to perfection, tender and absorbent of all the nearby flavors. For the first time, we tried the Korean sushi roll (K-Pop Demon Hunters was calling) and it didn't disappoint. Stuffed with fresh cooked bulgogi and veggies, we ate it so fast we were left thinking of Korean sushi rolls had an edge over Japanese sushi rolls! And we also got the poached dumplings for the first time and almost went as fast as the sushi roll. The authentic style of poaching the dumpling made it taste homemade from grandma's kitchen. The sizzling plate of bulgogi was amazingly put down the gullet on top of everything else. Consistently on point and warms the tummy. Service is cordial, but somewhat aloof and distant at times because we would have loved an offer to refill our side dishes, but admittedly they are often busy and we don't go there to expect Michelin dining service levels. We come for the food. Awesome food. And Stone Bowl House will be seeing us again before long.

The vibe is super cool -- eccentric in the best way, intimate but still lively. They had a movie playing on a projector, which gave the space a whole artsy, underground feel. Now, the menu isn't exactly pescatarian‑friendly, so I couldn't go too crazy, but what I *did* try was solid. The Kimchi Fried Rice was a little on the bland side for me -- I expected more punch since it's kimchi, but the portion was perfect. Most people pair it with their signature chicken dishes anyway, which makes total sense. The Kimchi Crab Cake, though? Absolutely delicious. Packed with savory lump crab, crispy panko coating, and a little lemony finish. YUM. My boyfriend got the Gaja‑style chicken and was obsessed -- crispy, crunchy, tossed in their famous sauce, topped with tofu ranch. He cleaned that plate. Now let's talk drinks. I ordered the Sledge‑o‑matic Lover, and this is the perfect spring/summer drink. Cucumber jalapeño tequila, house‑made watermelon syrup, a splash of lime, a hint of lemon... perfection. It's listed as spicy, but it's really not -- and I'm not a spicy‑drink girlie. This one is fantastic. The service was great too -- warm, attentive, and quick. The food came out faster than expected, everything was hot, and every dish looked beautiful. Gaja really surprised me in the best way.

    Service? Excellent. Ambiance? Relaxed and enjoyable. Food? Oh...MAN. Wow…read more.. I came here about 8 years ago with the same family members +1 family friend and we enjoyed dinner then, but it truly didn't compare to this visit. Previously, I had Kang Nam slated as an overpriced, but decent sushi place that serves meals on a more robust scale if you're dining with a party. However, the sushi back then was somewhat underwhelming. Last night, we had a phenomenal set. Hamachi, Otoro, Unagi, Ebi, and more! Every piece was delicately balanced and beautifully arranged. Honestly, I wasn't really expecting too much going in- and I'd only chosen Kang Nam as a place where I could get some decent sushi while my family got something else entirely. My mom had Don Katsu (served with a small dish of Japanese style curry sauce). My uncle got the Tempura Udon, of which they served the tempura shrimp on the side in a bed of tempura flakes. This is kind of genius, because you can make the decision on when you want to dip in your tempura instead of them bringing it and you have to down the tempura fast in order to still have it be crunchy... NOT HERE! It stays crunchy since they serve it separately. Love that. We had refillable banchan: kimchi, king oyster mushrooms, and glass noodles- all of which were delicious. We all received bowls of deliciously simple miso soup and we ordered a set of fried dumplings. Everything was great! That is...until the sushi came out. Wow. Presentation: 10/10. Flavor? 10/10. Portion-size: TEN OUT OF TEN, Y'ALL. The sushi rice was fantastic and they didn't use too much like a lot of places do with their nigiri. The toppings were functionally decorative. The sweet shrimp was especially pretty with two different colors of roe on top. The yellowtail didn't need the toppings it had- green onion and fish/squid flakes(?)- in my opinion, but they added a dimension of texture to the initial bite and a hint of flavor to the finish. The fish was perfect in every way: not too thick, no too thin, overlapping the rice by double to allow for perfect soy sauce dips without soaking the rice, and I just CAN NOT EXPLAIN how good each piece was... The sushi rolls were so delicious and every bite had wonderful textures and flavors, but my absolute favorite roll was the one with the smoked tuna on top- WOW! Absolutely stunned. Never - EVER - have I actually tasted the smoke flavor so clearly and completely. I am a HUGE fan of that one and I can't even remember the name of it...it's in the picture on the plate behind the sweet shrimp. The eel nigiri was also a highlight for me- as it's one of my favorite pieces of sushi, I always order several pieces. I was happily surprised to see they were nearly twice the size I get at other restaurants. Hands-down, the best otoro (fatty tuna) I've had in Atlanta. The sushi chef here also believes in giving special service by preparing some extra pieces for the customers as well. I only ordered one set of otoro, but next time....oh my...my bill is gonna hurt next time. Each 2-piece set of otoro is set at $17, so...yeah... It's going to be SO WORTH IT though. I will 10000% be back- soon. I might just get some Otoro, Hamachi, and one of those smoked tuna rolls...man. SO. RIDICULOUSLY. GOOD. Get in there if you haven't been in a while. Trust me!

    This is such a cute little spot! It's very homey and welcoming. The food is fantastic. Service was…read moregreat! I got the Bulgogi Bibimbap and it was a good size! I feel like two people could have ate from my bowl. Next time, I want to try the Veggie Dumpling Tofu soup! Also, it's so welcoming in here, there were a lot of folks here by themselves enjoying a meal and just being to themselves. I love that a lot!

    I remember years back thinking this place was good, not amazing, but enough to make it worth coming…read moreback. This was a long time ago, maybe before Covid, and it's really sad to see that it went downhill since I've last been. Upon entering, I noticed we were the only customers. Strange, but maybe the late lunch, early dinner time is not busy here. We were sat down, but the service wasn't very friendly. Despite being the only people here, we felt rushed to order and go. I suppose the biggest reason I'm giving a 3 is because of the yellow croaker/corvina. I love, love, love when tofu houses give it, and when I saw it here... it was the biggest disappointment. It was old. Definitely not as fresh as some of the other offerings here, and honestly, of the menu items here, only the seafood pancake was anything truly worthwhile. While the galbi was well marinated, it was thin. The soft tofu soup was good, but I feel as though most tofu houses do it well, so it's expected.
