Very good eel rice, I ate it and it was quite tasty, also service was good as well, and they have yummy tea

First time trying this place. Loved the clean and modern look of the place. Our server, Grace, was very knowledgeable and courteous. Took time making sure we understood the menu. Banchan was simple yet full of flavor. Tofu soups were excellent...they definitely offer variety of flavors that are hard to find anywhere else. Excellent experience overall. read more

My favorite soondubu place in Atlanta! They made their own tofu, which is much firmer than normal, but packed with flavor. Their beef, oyster, and even plain stews are good. I like the multigrain rice a lot too. They offer a great price for their stews and even have a Wednesday 30% special for soondubu. Their complementary and unlimited banchan and barley tea are pretty awesome too. Most people who come are Korean, but even not non-Koreans it's a good experience. I've been back often and will continue to return. read more

The food is very fresh. The service is great. The food is healthy. My family loves Tofu but the great thing is they make their own tofu. Grace, our server was very kind and very quick. We love this place!!! The ambiance is really clean as well. My husband loves their special rice call Gondure. Very healthy. read more

Du Bu Gong Bang makes their tofu fresh every morning, and you can genuinely taste the difference. Started with their signature black sesame firm dubu with kimchi -- so much better than packaged tofu. The spicy seafood soon dubu (shrimp, oyster, squid) was rich and comforting, and the seafood scallion jeon came out massive and crispy. Also got the la kalbi, which fell right off the bone. Every dish comes with rice, four side dishes, and steamed cabbage -- great value and portions. Will definitely be back. read more

Upscale Korean tofu spot with lots of veggie-forward, healthier options. Menu is extensive but easy to follow. Very busy, with a more self-service setup for utensils. Food was clean and fresh overall, though a few dishes (like the mushroom perilla) felt slightly underseasoned. Pro tip: scrape the rice from the stone pot and add hot water for scorched rice soup--don't skip this. Also seems that there are daily specials! (See pics) read more

10/10 would recommend eating here!!!! The food is incredible and worth every penny. They have a variety of stew options and highlight the importance of soybeans:) Service: 10/10! you're taken care of and everyone is so sweet :) The ambiance is excellent! The lighting in the restaurant is not too dark and not too bright, just right to enjoy your meal and environment. Lisa and Grace were our servers and they felt like family:) They set the space and tone to be approachable and comfortable. Would highly recommend coming here! read more

Du Bu Gong Bang - Soybean Cold Noodle Soup 콩국수 and Grilled Mackerel / 고등어 한마리 구이 - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

The house-made tofu is wonderful! However, we must have came on a bad day; service didn't even give us a beverage, let alone acknowledge us, until I flagged someone down over 20 minutes into being seated at a table.. That shrouded the entire experience for us. 직접 만든 두부는 정말 훌륭했습니다! 하지만 저희가 운이 좋지 않은 날에 방문했나 봅니다. 테이블에 앉은 지 20분이 넘도록 직원을 직접 불러 세우기 전까지는 음료 서비스는커녕 저희가 온 것조차 인지하지 못하는 듯했습니다. 그 점 때문에 식사 경험 전체가 아쉬움으로 남았습니다. read more

A pretty good traditional Korean restaurant that serves tasty tofu stew. It was quite busy last weekend when we tried this place out and it was recommended by my friend's friend. Service was excellent and they recommended their popular dishes. The side dishes were pretty good, but limited. Portion size and price were not bad. My favorite was the oyster seaweed soon dubu with the grilled mackerel. read more

Overall Solid, busy Korean tofu spot with good service and a cute, clean vibe. I came in extra excited because they make their own tofu, but the food leaned more modern and Americanized than I hoped, so I can't give it a full 5. Price and value Pricing felt average for today's economy. Not cheap, not outrageous. The in house tofu is a cool value add, even if it didn't fully hit the "wow" level I've had from tofu shops in Korea. Food and flavor The biggest thing to know: the flavor profile felt more catered to modern tastes that are sweeter and spicier rather than the more traditional OG style. That's not "bad," just different. If you're expecting Korea level authenticity and balance, set expectations accordingly. What to order Best bet: stick to the OG sundubu stews, especially the spicy options. That's where this place shines the most, and it's the safest way to have a satisfying meal here. What I'd skip The pancakes were not worth it to me. They felt too thick and batter heavy, with not enough filling for the flour ratio. I'd rather spend that stomach space on stew and tofu focused dishes. Service Service was pretty good. Staff was attentive and the overall experience felt well run. Atmosphere and wait Atmosphere was cute and clean, but it's very popular. Expect a wait unless you make a reservation ahead of time. Recommendation If you're in Georgia and craving a more authentic leaning Korean tofu experience (by US standards), this is worth visiting. Just go in knowing it's more modern, sweeter, and spicier than traditional OG style. Order the OG spicy sundubu stews, skip the pancakes, and you'll have a much better time. read more

I happened to be in the area on a Saturday afternoon due to an appointment nearby, and I was searching for something to eat for lunch when I came across this restaurant. The staff was super sweet and welcoming, and the ambiance was chill and laid back. I ordered one of the combos: Soon Dubu and Grilled Mackerel. I was honestly blown away by the amount of food that I received for that price! They of course give you banchan, but the banchan was super fresh and clearly well prepared. Something else that they gave me that I've been wanting to try was the hot stone rice! If you've never had it before, they put the rice in a hot stone bowl (hence the name!), which makes the rice at the bottom crispy. The easy steps to enjoy it are scraping out most of the rice, pouring tea over the rice, covering it for a few minutes to let the flavors infuse with the rice, and enjoying it by mixing and scraping the crispy bits of the rice--don't worry, they provide clear instructions with images a each table. As for the tofu stew, it was perfectly prepared, and it honestly packed a punch with the flavors! Same thing for the mackerel--it was beautifully grilled and seasoned well. I wasn't able to finish all of it myself, so I definiteyly took the rest to go. I'm dying to go back and try other dishes! read more

Atlanta has a lot of good Korean food, and this place is definitely on the list for tofu stews! I ordered the spicy tofu + egg stew, and it came with crispy stone pot rice. Personally, the crispy rice was a bit too hard and dry, but it still tasted delicious. Stew was great! Pretty comparable to ones I've had in S. Korea, though maybe a tad bit less flavorful. Definitely prepare yourself for a wait if you come on a weekend or busy time, we waited around 40 min (at least Teso is next door so we shopped around!). It was busy inside so food also took quite long to come out, around 30 minutes. However, having the side dishes (banchan) to snack on while waiting was nice. read more

One of the best tofu soups I've had. I was surprised that they made their tofu in house. It's a long process and most restaurants but the premade ones. We also got the seafood pancake and it was delicious! I was so surprised. It was better than most Korean tofu restaurants in California! Not only the seafood pancake but the tofu soup as well! Highly recommend when in GA. read more

My husband and I stopped in on a weekend afternoon and were seated right away. The decor is modern with a zen vibe. It's very cute. As soon as we were seated and placed our order, we were served complimentary hot barley tea. Napkins and utensils are conveniently stored in the table drawer, and the servers bring plates, bowls, scissors and tongs as needed. I was a bit unsure why the bowls were provided, but the server explained that traditionally people mix the rice from the stone bowls into the regular bowls and then pour the hot barley tea into the stone bowl. This softens the crispy, slightly burnt rice crust and creates a nutty and savory tea you can enjoy. My husband and I ordered the following dishes: 1. Seafood Scallion Jeon (small size) 2. Spicy Oyster Soon Dubu with LA Kalbi Combo (He upgraded the plain rice to Umami Mushroom Rice +$2.95). 3. Grilled Eel Sot Bap Combo served with a Small Plain White Soon Dubu (I upgraded this to spicy +$1). The Seafood Scallion Jeon had a perfect balance of chewy and crispy textures with a fresh scallion flavor combined with savory seafood. This was delicious and the small portion was more than enough for two people to share. The Spicy Oyster Soon Dubu was rich in flavor and had a generous amount of oysters. The LA Kalbi was well-seasoned and cooked to perfection with a satisfying smoky char. The upgrade from regular rice to the Umami Mushroom Rice for (+$2.95) added extra depth to the meal and was worth it! The Grilled Eel Sot Bap was topped with sliced ginger and scallions, then torched table-side for the final touch of sear. The result was amazing. Overall, both the food and service exceeded my expectations. I'm already looking forward to my next visit and would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a wonderful dining experience. read more

Du Bu Gong Bang - Combo Two Spicy sundubu with egg, LA Galbi - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Du Bu Gong Bang is a solid tofu restaurant located in the same shopping center as Chubby Cattle Shabu, Teso, and Sweet Hut. The service we receive is great. The staff is very attentive and respectful. The interior is clean with a very nice woodsy aesthetic. Napkins and utensils are all located in a drawer at each table. Food is super tasty! The menu is extensive and there's good combo options too. * Seafood Pancake ($19.95/Large): Yummy! * Eel Combo w/ Spicy Tofu Soup ($19.95): Very filling. I recommend paying the extra $1 for spicy soup though, the plain one is super bland. Eel is good and topped with eel sauce on a bed of rice. * Galbi Combo w/ Tofu Soup ($29.95): Always a good one to order! * Oysters Combo w/ Tofu Soup ($24.99) All orders come with side dishes (kimchi, fish cake, sesame veggies, etc) and cabbage wraps. Portions are big and definitely shareable. I'm a fan! read more

This was my second time here - the first time I did not review because I think it was a fluke - service was extremely slow and disappointing on a busy day, our waitress forgot to put our order in so we sat for 1 hr waiting before they realized. They offered one of the cheaper items on their menu - a cabbage dumpling for free but it was not very good nor enough to make us feel better. The second time we were served promptly and service was good. Food is great - the black sesame tofu didn't really taste like tofu but was still good. Fried fish is delicious and so is the soondubu. Pancake is also good. I would give it 5 stars if the service wasn't terrible the first time. Pretty large restaurant and really cute/aesthetic ambiance. read more

Wow...if you want a nice dining Korean style experience, this is the place to be! The ambience is very zen and relaxing. The staff are super nice and helpful. I was seated pretty quick and they immediately brought a pot of hot tea. The air was a bit stuffy as everything was made pretty hot. Luckily, today has been a pretty cold day. It is about 5:28pm and the night is drifting off to the dark. Overall, the price wasnt bad at all for the amount of food you get and I was able to bring some food to go too. I highly recommend it! read more

Interior is pretty and looks fairly clean but the food is sadly not tasteful or presentable. Tofu was slush and the beef was dry and tough to chew. Side dishes were marinated fish cake, mushroom and steamed cabbage. Not impressed and will not recommend especially recommend their vegetable vermicelli for not korean style at all. Cooked in so much oil of some sort, greasy! read more

One of the best meals I've had in Duluth! We got the soondubu and grilled mackerel. It came with some side dishes, ssamjang, steamed cabbage, and stone bowl white rice. The grilled mackerel was soooo good. So crispy yet tender! Soondubu was really good too. Spicy one had a nice kick to it. You eat the white rice then pour hot water in the stone bowl to make a nooroongji and that with kimchi was so delicious! Highly recommend going here if you're in the area! read more

Du Bu Gong Bang is a traditional Korean restaurant that you can go to when craving tofu dishes. From pan fried tofu and perilla oil appetizers to delicious soft tofu soup in various flavors and toppings, this is the perfect go to spot and a pleasant change from your normal kbbq and other Korean restaurants that serves marinated protein sides of beef (bulgogi), chicken (dukgalbi), and spicy pork (jeyuk). Today we had ordered the tofu appetizer pan fried in perilla oil, soft tofu soup with oysters and perilla leaves topping with mushroom rice, and spicy soft tofu soup. The entrees we ordered came with various side dishes that you can eat, including steam cabbage and Korean sauce where you can wrap up rice and side dishes for a mini ssam (steam cabbage wrap). Everything was delicious! Interior of the restaurant is beautifully decorated, neat, and very well kept. The servers are friendly enough and do their best to tend to all your needs for a near perfect dining experience. We appreciate you Du Bu Gong Bang family for working hard and efficiently to make sure we had an amazing experience while visiting Georgia! This business is conveniently located in a plaza and offers plenty of free parking spaces. They have other restaurants in the same plaza you can try next time as well. Please let me know if this review helped and if you had the chance to dine in at Du Bu Gong Bang yet! Thanks! read more

Do Bu Gong Bang has quickly become my favorite restaurant in the area! They make fresh tofu for the tofu soup, and the service and ambience are fantastic! The price is very reasonable as well.

Vibey and trendy (for a tofu place), pretty solid grade of dish items offered and sure, the tofu is house made but for me that was about it. Servers seemed too busy to be attentive yet can't complain as they were doing their jobs. Seeing an OG ajussi killing the whole bottle of makgeoli with with some tofu anjoo was memorable. read more

My new favorite restaurant to bring my older relatives when they come to visit (don't get me wrong, I love it myself as well, but older Asians are particularly fond of it). First of all, this parking lot is officially a nightmare after all these good restaurants opened up. If possible I try to go during off times, like 3pm. But now to the food. They make their own tofu in house using high quality beans, so the texture is completely different than your supermarket tofu. It's amazing, and I'm honestly not even a big tofu fan. Their tofu appetizers with kimchi are so good. The black sesame is the way to go, I love the seared one with the crispy crunchy outside. I've tried both of their Jeon, the kimchi and the seafood, and both of them are amazing. The seafood one in particular, is honestly the best I've ever had. Crispy, plenty of seafood, and they don't fill it with dough like some places. Both the Mackerel and Galbi are made perfectly. The spicy seafood tofu soup is super delicious, though I'm not sure why they don't include an egg. I'll definitely add one next time, as it's quite spicy and can use the egg to balance it. We've also have the Dubu Jungeol and loved it. Everything is really delicious here, with a simple menu focusing on tofu but plenty of real meat options. Finally, we tried the seasonal dessert, korean street pancake with ice cream and loved it. Amazing restaurant! read more

As an enthusiastic flexitarian, I love restaurants that highlight plant based protein. We ordered two bowls of soontofu, the stir-fry with squid and the cold soybean noodles. The seafood soontofu was bursting with juicy oysters and was not laden with salt and oil like other restaurants. The black sesame tofu that came with the squid was delicious. I wish they sold it and I could take some home. Unfortunately, the red pepper kochujang sauce for the stir fry was overly sweet. We upgraded one of the rice bowls to include thistle which was outstanding. The restaurant's aesthetic is lovely and clean with high ceilings. Dubu Gong Bang will surely get me through the chilly winters here with their bowls of comforting goodness. read more

It was good got the seafood pizza thing I liked it a lot . Whould recommend people was nice.

The environment is clean and comfort. Love the high ceilings and the mirrors. The service is nice, BUT there are lots of people on weekend, so you need to catch the waitress! The Black Sesame Tofu with Kimchi is good! But be careful when you cut the tofu, cuz the oil is still sizzling at the beginning. I enjoyed the light crispness of the tofu very much! It does not come with any sauce! It is intend to eat with the kimchi! However you can dip in any salty sauce (such as the sauce for the rice) and it is gonna be more flavorful! The tofu soup with oyster is great! Not like the tofu soup in other restaurants, their tofu seems hands-made! read more

We came on a Saturday night and waited for around 20 mins to get seated for 2 people. The inside was very spacious with high ceilings and well lit. The greenery and a projected video playing on the wall gives the place a clean yet cozy vibe. The food was amazing! If you're looking for something a bit more than just soup, getting a combo is the perfect portion. I would also recommend upgrading the rice to thistle rice! The thistle rice comes in a stone pot, you can scoop out majority of the rice and pour in some hot barley tea to make porridge with the left over rice stuck to the pot! read more

Following a roadtrip, my friend and I wanted to grab lunch on our way back to Atlanta. We were able to get seated right away for lunch on a Monday by the kind hostess. We shared their Scallion pancake (small), kalbi combo with soon dubu and ban Chan which was more than enough for the two of us. Ban chan is unlimited so we ordered another set since we had finished our first. The pancake was crispy but also chewy. There was even some octopus and oyster in it! The soon dubu was flavorful and hearty. We loved how the kalbi was cooked medium. Overall, we had a perfect experience in their slightly classy establishment. Staff were efficient and professional and the food was exceptional. Prices are very justified by the portion and I cannot wait to come again! read more

The soondubu here is so good! Very unique compared to other places like BCD because they make their own fresh tofu and their ban chans are not the common ones you usually get. Since it's fresh tofu, they're like little tofu clouds - soft and round - instead of silky like the tubes from the store. Everyone was sooooo good; all of my friends and I were so impressed and exclaimed how this will be a go-to restaurant for us. About the food we ordered: 1) Seafood pajeon ($15) - must get! Crispy, light, filled with seafood (even whole oysters), but soft in the middle and flavorful. 2) Black sesame tofu with kimchi - pass this dish! Nothing special, exactly what it is. Kind of pricey too ($12) so would recommend you skip. 3) Oyster & seaweed soondubu ($15) - soooo good! Light broth, refreshing and packed with oysters. They do not skimp out so you really get your money's worth. 4) Pan-fried mackarel (forgot the price) - cooked to perfection! Salted just right, the skin is crispy, the fish is still juicy. This was probably my favorite item haha just wasn't expecting it to be so good. read more
