It's been over 15 years since my last review here. They've rebranded the signs to TODAM from Cafe…read moreTodahmgol. The inside is small and cozy. Staff are friendly as ever. They were slammed with a holiday party of 12 so the kitchen was backed up. I was offered a free beverage on the house so A+ on service. The menu and website now have English which is an improvement from the last visit. I ordered the beef and seafood spicy soup. There were several other options I was considering so the menu has a lot of variety. The soup has udon style noodles so I wasn't surprised when the giant pot was brought out to the table. The big surprise was lots of clams, mussels, and other shellfish. An added bonus was they threw in a soft shell blue crab too. That explains the giant pot. Portion size is heavy for one person and 2 people could make this a light meal. For $32 it seemed pricey but I wasn't expecting a giant pot with so much in it. It's 3-4 of the bowls you would normally find at a tofu soup place. TODAM is worth checking out if you haven't been in since the rebrand. Service is what makes it stand out.

I believe the cons outweighed the pros during our visit to Luxor, a unique noraebang (Korean…read morekaraoke establishment) in Duluth. Three stars is still okay, but I wouldn't consider myself a fan of this joint just yet. I called and made a reservation for 20 people on a Saturday night at 10pm. I was told over the phone that our group would get the biggest room in the house. When we arrived, on time, this was not the case. I think we got maybe the 2nd or 3rd largest room in the place. We got Room #6 which is a rectangular-shaped room with a long table running down the middle and an open, U-shaped couch lining three of the walls. This couch could seat 16 people max and we were all sitting rather snug. When all of our group was there, this meant that some people had to stand. Fail. It was already a bit uncomfortable for the 16 of us who were seated just to get up and move around, pass the mic and song book, order/grab drinks and food, etc. Due to our large group size, we were told there was a two-bottle minimum for the room. Bottles start at $100 per. We ordered Johnnie Walker ($100) and Grey Goose ($120). These two bottles got us 4 hours of karaoke. After tax and automatic 18% gratuity added to the bill, our total was about $300 for the room. For 20 people, this works out to only $15 per person, so it's actually a very good deal. (We were actually a few short of 20, so our per person total was higher.) Those two bottles weren't enough for our group, so we ordered an extra bottle (Crown Royal, $120). Someone in our group already paid for this bottle in advance, separately as soon as he ordered it. At the end, when it came time to pay the bill for the entire room, I was presented with a ticket with all 3 bottles on it. We almost got double-charged for the bottle of Crown! If we didn't question the staff about the extraneous line item, we would have paid an extra $120+ for nothing. After bringing this mistake to the staff's attention, they seemed apologetic. I just don't know for sure if it was an honest mistake or not. Apart from the small room size and billing discrepancy, some other things I did not like about Luxor were: (1) song selection access and (2) smoke. Actually, smoky environments don't bother me *that* much, but I thought it would be worth noting. Like Ai Tunes, Sound of Music, and other NRBs, Luxor has a restaurant/lounge/bar-type area outside the karaoke rooms where people can order food, drinks, and just hang out. It's smoky in this area, so be forewarned. I think Luxor actually has a good song selection, but accessing all these songs is a pain For example, I noticed they had Adele's Skyfall theme song in their database on the same weekend the Skyfall movie premiered. That's pretty impressive. Unfortunately, the song book only had a mere fraction of the songs that were actually in the system. Not only that, but there was only one remote for the entire room (and it was written in Korean) so it was bothersome to hand off the remote due to the aforementioned spacing issues, plus we had to keep asking our Korean friends to help operate the remote for us. All these issues aside, Luxor does have some great things going for it. While this place is super Korean and caters mainly to young Korean clientele, the staff are also young and Korean and thus, typically speak and understand English well. Everyone seemed friendly and attentive and service to our room was generally good. Each bottle of alcohol ordered came with regular glasses, shot glasses, mixers (Coca-Cola and cranberry juice), and platefuls of fruit and snacks. The fruit plate was beautifully presented and included pineapple, watermelon, grapes, oranges, kiwi, and strawberry. The snack plate had peanuts, seaweed, cuttlefish (win), banana chips, and a couple other extras. All of that was very nice and among the best snacks I've seen at any Atlanta-area KTV. The theme of this place is awesome. It's like you're singing karaoke in an Egyptian pyramid complete with wall carvings and hieroglyphics. Yes, it sounds bizarre and that's because it is. Outside the door of each the rooms are colored lights. They blink and light up when people are inside singing. Inside, the rooms have plenty of fun, colorful lighting from lasers to strobes to rotating, light-up disco balls. Our room had one big TV at one end and two smaller TVs in the corners of the opposite end. In general, the setup was nice -- we just had too many people for the room. The sound and video quality were good. One fellow Yelper described Luxor as it being "the Clermont of karaoke joints." I wouldn't go so far as to say that. The actual build-out is nice, but I did notice an exceptional number of drunk people here. There was vomit on the floors of both the men's and women's restrooms. Apparently, this is the karaoke joint to come to if you want to get wasted. As my friend CJ told me, Luxor is more of a place to drink rather than to karaoke.

Assa Tech used to be my go-to karaoke in high school. It opened up around 2014 and I used to…read morefrequent this place a lot -- even after high school, it was definitely the IT place for karaoke. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the same feel/vibe as it used to. I recently went just because I wanted to jam out to a few songs. We went around 8pm on a Tuesday and this place was dead. We were literally the only folks there. I mean it is a weekday but still I was surprised at how little people there were. That's not a big deal bc we get undisturbed karaoke time. We went into our rooms and I just felt like it was really worn down. The karaoke machine/remote was slow/laggy, the room had a weird smell and there was definitely no AC in the room. I think the AC was probably because there was no one else there. But I mean it does have the basics -- it has all the songs you need, it gives you a sense of privacy and most of all - their food is always on point. We didn't order food this time but there garlic wings are some of the best in the game. We did order a beer and the owner gave us some Chex Mix to munch on which was nice, but I just felt that the entire place could use a little love/renovation. Will I be back? Probably -- Assa Tech is still one of my preferred karaokes but it just didn't hit home like it used to.

Moon of Seoul in Duluth, GA…read more Moon of Seoul is a pocha-style Korean restaurant in Duluth that's open until 2 AM! One of my favorite Korean restaurants in the area. I have been visiting several times now. Their interior is back to the 80s-90s vibe. Here's what we ordered this time: Korean Fried Chicken (Recommend ) We got the Half & Half with Original Korean Style and Korean SSS. Both were super crispy on the outside and juicy inside. The Original is more savory and classic, while the Korean SSS has a sweeter and spicier kick. Grilled Beef Intestine / Gopchang (Recommend ) This is one of their new menu items! The gopchang was really well prepared, crispy on the outside, juicy and tender inside, and it literally bursts when you bite into it. It comes with seasoned raw chives, which add a fresh contrast to the rich beef intestine. This goes SO well with beer! Mushroom Cream Risotto (Recommend ) The presentation wasn't our favorite, BUT the flavor surprised me. It's a rich, Alfredo-style cream sauce with plenty of cheese and mushrooms. Very creamy and comforting, although it's pretty filling. K-Army Stew Loaded with ramen, Spam, sausage, tofu, and more. Definitely a filling Korean comfort food dish that's great for sharing.

The vibe/decor here was fun like it's a true bar. There were still a good selection of menu items…read moreso it's more of a restaurant first and foremost. The hubs really raved about the food here and so here's my chance to try the food with a visiting friend who enjoys all things Korean. Fire grilled chicken feet: These were actually pretty meaty for what they are. And with its jam pack flavor, the meat sort of fell off the bone. I think these were the shining star of the night. With my Asian group of friends, they said the chicken feet here was solid. Sweet potato sticks: These were interesting. As they weren't quite fries but rather potato sticks as described. I rather like sweet potato fries, but these were way different. It definitely feels less carb-y, but it's like chips that you're eating. Each bite proved to be crunchy and sweet as these were sweet potatoes. Half and half wings (original? + spicy?): These were meaty and oh my gosh pretty flavorful. The spicy version was spicy but not by any means 'I'm going to die' spicy. Though I did think the group toned down the spice level. Haha. Whatever the other flavor was, it was not spicy and pretty delectable. These were overall pretty hearty wings. Seafood pancake: Though good, it was sort of like any other seafood pancake I've had. There wasn't anything great nor bad I'd say about this. It had a nice crunch and good ratio of seafood. The hubs raved about this place like it was a 5. But with my experience, I'm thinking it's more like a 4 star experience when I consider my taste preference and pricing. Though I'm surprised the reviews here aren't better...

Based on a recommendation from an acquaintance, we decided to have an early dinner at this uniquely…read morethemed restaurant. As its name suggests, this establishment is designed as a gathering spot where people enjoy hearty meals paired with drinks--especially Soju. The ambiance clearly reflects that intention, offering a relaxed, nostalgic space for winding down over food and alcohol. The restaurant is located on the second floor of the building and is easy to spot thanks to its prominent signage. Upon entering, the first impression is striking--the lighting is dim, creating an intimate and moody atmosphere. The layout includes several partitioned areas, offering a sense of privacy even in an open space. The decor, music, and menu all seem carefully curated to appeal to an older crowd, particularly those in their 50s and beyond. One noticeable and charming detail was the abundance of handwritten notes and messages scribbled on the walls by previous customers, reflecting both the personality and demographics of its regulars. Initial greetings and seating service were adequate--nothing exceptional but courteous. However, once our food was served, the attentiveness of the staff noticeably declined. The restaurant uses a call-bell system, and while this is common in some Korean establishments, I personally find it disengaging. The service felt passive rather than proactive, and we had to ring the bell more than once to receive follow-up assistance. For drinks, we ordered SoMak (a mix of Soju and beer) along with classic Korean bar snacks like Buchu Jeon (chive pancake) and 깻잎 (perilla leaves) as 안주 (side dishes for alcohol). We also tried the 천엽부침 (pan-fried beef omasum). While it was interesting, we found the flavor profile a bit too bland. We offered feedback, hoping they might re-season it with salt, pepper, garlic, and sesame oil to bring out more flavor, but they simply brought out dipping sauce instead, which didn't quite address the issue. Overall, both the food and service felt like they were missing that final 2%--a small but meaningful gap between a decent experience and a great one. That said, the unique atmosphere and concept of the restaurant still hold value, especially for casual, drink-centered gatherings. I sincerely hope the management takes constructive feedback seriously and works toward enhancing both the flavor of their dishes and the attentiveness of their service. Despite the shortcomings, I do plan to return for another visit--perhaps with a different group or on a different occasion--to explore more of what the menu has to offer. There's potential here, and with just a bit more effort, this place could really stand out.
