    Huuuuuge KBBQ fan; I've tried many places but this one here takes the crown. Pricing wise (I'm never the one paying) is very fair and the food is always fresh. The salad dressing is probably my least favorite thing off the menu but everything else makes up for it. The service is always very attentive and most of the times they cook it for you. My sister and her friends told me they were going here last night and i dropped EVERYTHING to make sure i joined them, LOL! If you looking for a fair priced KBBQ night, you won't leave disappointed. I bring my own jalapeño so don't expect it from here BUT a couple of their sides do come with some as well.

    Beef brisket

    AYCE Korean BBQ for lunch. Nice ambiance, great customer service, delicious food! My favorite is beef brisket, corn cheese, and pork belly. We also got pork steak, bulgogi, soybean paste soup egg soufflé. The side items, banchans dishes are good especially kimchi, salads, and macaroni salad. The 4 dipping sauces options is great too. I like the booth seatings with higher back giving some privacy in between tables. Service was fast during lunch rush hour! Definitely will be back again!

    Rating: 4.5 stars The AYCE had a very good variety of meats to choose from They also had tasty banchans and appetizers I enjoyed all the meats they had to offer as they were all tasty and fresh I also enjoyed the cilantro sauce they have to eat w your proteins it was really good I would visit this place again!!

    My go-to place for KBBQ! The price ($29.99 AYCE dinner) is worthwhile for the range of options and the quality of the food items. The bonchon is great, and I appreciate how the add-ons like rice and cheese corn are also endless after your first order. Always love coming here!

    The back wall for the others

    I'm torn. The food was excellent. Like most kbbq places, their service is all for one and one for all. It also seemed like all non-koreans were sat on the back wall with the dirty grill plates. Good food, terrible ambiance, great service. Good food wins tho. Would return.

    $25 lunch AYCE
    Gina L.

    Came by for the $25 lunch AYCE on a Monday. Extremely fast service, attentive staff (3-4 people checking up on us constantly). We'd put in an order, and someone would swing by to check if we needed anything else. Grills were changed multiple times during our visit. Wasn't too busy (maybe 4-5 other parties?). Thinly sliced pork belly and brisket were our faves - also got the pork belly, bulgogi, among other meats. Banchan was fine (variety of pickled veg, mac salad, kimchi), as well as slices of pickled radish perfect to wrap protein in. Ask for sesame oil in the salt for dipping. We were surprised by the individual portions of steamed egg, cheese corn, etc. Might be a ploy to fill you up on non-meat items, but doesn't hurt to specify. No upcharge for the steamed egg, which was nice (something I've been seeing at other spots). Can't beat a $25 AYCE !! Ate so much it doubled as dinner too.

    Food was good, service was one of the worst restaurants I've been to. We went during lunch hours and the restaurant was fairly empty. There were few waiters and waitresses walking around, but they only checked up on us 3-4 times during our stay, essentially when we had to order our meats. Also, wasn't sure if we were supposed to cook ourselves or not? They would cook and disappear, so at one point we had to take over because the briskets started to burn. The meats were tasty though. It's a all you can order setup, so we tried few hours of the brisket and prime rib. The array of ban chan or side dishes were good. Their kimchi is fresh, so it's got a good kick to it, not the fermented kinds. I recommend the brisket because it's pretty tender and cooking it to make it slightly crispy and dipping it in the sauces given really adds good flavor. I think it's a sweet deal for $29.99 lunch special, but tip is included. Honestly though makes me wonder if because tip was included, service was mediocre because performance really doesn't matter. Probably will be back because the food was good, just going to hope for better service.

    Super hot sauce
    Scoo J.

    I love this KBBQ place. This one you get the most bang for your buck. The sides are really good and the meat is good quality. I don't mind that they include gratuity, the staff was very attentive and very fast. E.M bop has made it into my KBBQ rotation. Heads up: I asked for hot sauce and they gave me one of the hottest sauces I've ever had. Almost ruined my meal of how hot it was (I have a very high tolerance). I personally think they should give a warning. I was expecting something like Tabasco, Texas Pete. The pure capsaicin sauce was overkill.

    E.M Bop is definitely one of my fav kbbq spots! The variety of what you can order with the all you can eat is great. Some of my favorites are the pork belly and short ribs. The sides taste good as well. The service has been good the times I have visited. The servers have been very attentive and help if they get a chance to see you need the assistance. Friendly as well! My only thing would be to offer more seats in the waiting area because it can get very crowded when busy. Other than that, I love the ambiance and cleanliness inside.

    My group of friends decided on this spot after golf , and let me tell you... they did not disappoint. We had the short rib and spicy bulgogi, and it may have been the highlight of the week. The service was incredible. There wasn't one moment where we had to wait. I wish I got the names of the servers, everyone was very attentive and polite. Can't ask for a better experience!

    The Korean BBQ is one of my favorites. Our go-to for my friends and I, we will normally order sides which can get a little pricey.

    The food is great. The service is awesome. The price is unbeatable for what you get. This is the best korean bbq spot in Duluth.

    Will you smell like bbq after dining there?

    Some korean bbqs have fans inside the grill to keep that from happening. I don't remember if this one did

    MLBB Hot Pot is one of my favorite spots in Metro Atlanta. This is a terrific AYCE hot pot spot…read morewith an incredible selection of items. There even is a soda fountain if you're anything like me and live off Diet Coke. Service has always been on point during my family's visits to MLBB. Drinks get refilled quickly, additional broth is added almost before we ask, and dirty plates get whisked away very quickly. There's a lot of premium or "premium" type of ingredients like pig intestines that you don't really expect to find at that many hot pot spots. I love pig intestines, and I'm proud of it. Heh, but like really, don't knock it till you try it. I'll always recommend MLBB first for people looking for a hot pot spot in the Metro Atlanta area.

    MLBB Hot Pot was one of the best Hot Pot places we have tried in a long while. They have good…read moreflavored broth, fresh quality ingredients, fast service, clean interiors, and the list goes on and on. They have skewers with bite sized meat wrapped around different veggies and mushrooms. I got the impression that they care about their customer's every bite. The veggies, fish balls, and other perishable ingredients were kept inside the refrigerator. The shaved meats, appetizers, and other dishes you can order through a QR code menu. The table was set up conveniently with mini trash bags that were out of your way (you can put the finished skewers), a small cart next to the table for you to put empty dishes or drink bottles and whatever else you wanted. They also bring out the meat and set them here. It gives you more room on the table for you to actually enjoy your meal. We got the two flavor broth today. The Malatang is actually spicy so when you order classic spicy, ask for medium spicy. The other broth we got was the mushroom broth. They were both good but the spicy soup for us was tongue numbing spicy that made my tea tastes like seltzer water. Haha I have learned my lesson for my next visit here. If you haven't tried this place already, put it on top of your hot pot or soupy restaurant list for a chilly or rainy day. Please let me know what you thought of it after your experience! They offer plenty of parking in this plaza.
