Honey Pig was an elusive restaurant that I always heard great things about, but had trouble finding a good group to come with. Having gone this past month I can say it lives up to all the hype and expectations. (Drafted after a visit on 10/10/2014) read more

OH. MY. GOD. It's official. Every time we head to Atlanta, we just have to get some Korean BBQ, and this trip brought us to Honey Pig. When we arrived, there was quite a line! We were told about 20 mins, which turned into more like 45, but totally understandable being a Friday night on a holiday weekend. (Will wait for meat.) We immediately ordered up a few beers and the kimchi and bean sprouts came right out. My significant other, who has never been a big kimchi kinda guy, ended up loving it (maybe because it was on the grill?) and I think we have a new fan! It was spicy and fantastic. We opted to go all out with the ALL the meats, and started out with the brisket. I think this was my favorite... perfectly seasoned and the crispy bits at the end... just incredible. Next up, pork belly, spicy pork belly, one more I've forgotten, and ended with the squid. I did have to take several time outs, walk outside to cool off a bit (dang, it gets hot in here!) Not typical of me to not take a ton of pictures or write notes, but I really wanted to immerse myself in the experience and company. And I did. And it was amazing. And, I'll be back. read more

This place has good Korean BBQ - we often order all you can eat buffet. 25 per person- yes it is pricy. But you pay what you get . Food quality is good. I like the style here that they brought the meat to be cooked at the desk. They offer - Brisket, Korean bacon, Korean Pork belly, and some seafood selections. They are all very good, meat is tender and fresh, marinated ones are nicely flavored. Service here can be a little slow. You need to ask every time which can be a little annoying . Since cooking at the table is part of the meal, that I think they are supposed to come help check the cooking and adjust the temperature. Music is very loud here that You can't hear the other person across the table. In comparison to Iron Age , I like this place better because of it's meat quality. If you are a meat lover - definitely give this place a try. I think it is the best Korean BBQ place in Atlanta. read more

I had to come here before I moved because I was curious how it compared to Iron Age. The meat itself was better than iron age because they marinate some of their meats and thus, have more choices. However, it is more expensive by quite a bit. The service was horrible. We had to ask for more plates of meat at least 3 times before we got it. They also didn't have ice cream like iron age does. All in all, I would prefer Iron Age over this place. They're more attentive at Iron Age, it's cheaper for pretty much the same stuff just no marinated meats. But the marinated stuff isn't worth coming here and paying the price difference. More importantly, there was no ice cream! read more

you can't "buy" all your reviews honey pig. not allowed on yelp either. so maybe yelp will see... that's not the way to do it. we came here because everywhere was packed. 9292 was our first option but the wait was like an hour long so we came here. we were seated fairly quickly, but after us it was pretty packed too. with that being said, service should still be pretty good regardless. it might be a little hectic but your service skills should still be there. we were a party of 8 so tip is already included. that doesn't give anyone the right to slack off. our server cursed so much during his time of serving us. it was cool the first time, after that it was unacceptable. he said stuff like it's busy "as fuck" etc etc. pretty much complaining to us about it being busy and some people were still on break... not really a customers issue but okay. & if we knew how to cook the food that be good for him. also he left for a bit so we cooked our pork belly and someone at our table started to cut the pork belly and he saw that. instead of taking over like most places do, he said "oh okay" and walked off. didn't take over or anything. i forgot to mention, he dropped our entire platter of meat. yeah he tried balancing it on the side which is what a 2x4 wood piece looking thing??? yeah. very nice. and they were also "out of rice paper because it was very busy yesterday and they get shipment every other day" what kinda place gets shipment every other day?? don't you order in bulk?? makes no sense. whatever. lastly, i hate the way they cook their meat. or our server i guess. normal places let people finish their meat or put it on people's plates before putting a new meat on the grill. nope. he pushed it over to the side and put new meat. well now the cooked meat is completely contaminated. thanks. there's way better places out there. read more

Honey Pig - honey pig trying to pay you to write a 5 star review. no thx - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Honey Pig is one of only a handful of places for which I am willing to traverse into the jungles of the OTP. In my experience, any restaurant that is guaranteed to induce the meat sweats is well worth the potential risks - vaccinations and antibiotics will fend off the rest. Food: Honey Pig is a Korean barbecue restaurant that serves signature meats like samgyupsal (grilled porky belly) and bulgogi (marinated beef ribs). All meats are cooked alongside a heaping serving of kimchi and bean sprouts. During my visit, our party of 12 opted for the all-you-can-eat option, which afforded an unlimited amount of five different meats. All the meats were good, but the spicy samgyupsal was the real standout - unfortunately, they don't serve it until the end since the marinade does a number on the grill. Once the meats were finished, the waiter prepared a fried rice course, which was equally as delicious. Service: Contrary to the experiences of other reviewers, our waiter was actually quite pleasant and accommodating. He engaged in small talk while cooking the meats and was eager to answer the multitude of questions that our group had. He was also incredibly quick to replenish items when asked. Atmosphere: Honey Pig is certainly a bit more trendy than your average Korean barbecue joint. The place is filled with a series of tables and booths, each of which has a Korean cast-iron lid in the center - you can cook the food yourself or let the waiter do it for you. As expected, I did leave reeking like a slab of smoked meat - however, the exhaust system over the tables is superior to that which I've experienced elsewhere. My only gripe with the atmosphere was the blaring Korean dance music, or "K-pop", as other reviewers have dubbed it- I would have preferred a shrieking harem of harpies to that disastrous noise pollution. Cost: Expensive if you purchase a la carte, but worth the price if you go with the all-you-can-eat option. Individual meats are $10-$25, while the all-you-can-eat is $25. Sodas are $2, wine is $7-$8/glass, and Korean drinks are $9-$15/kettle. Other: Honey Pig is located in the middle of a strip mall on Old Norcross Rd - directly next to Kauffman TIre. Ample parking is available in the strip mall's private lot. The restaurant would not take reservations for our group - I'm not sure if that was just for the weekend or whether it was their standard policy. Also, the waiters split the tips at the end of the night and a 17% gratuity is added to parties of 7 or more. read more

Honey Pig - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I went in for lunch after seeing the place next door to Chung Hae. The lunch specials are very affordable at around $7. I opted for the Spicy Pork with vegetables. Lunch items are accompanied by traditional Korean sides, kimchee, etc. The meal came with a total of 5 side items and the spicy pork was brought out on a sizzling platter like fajitas. Lunch items are not cooked at your table, but you can order BBQ any time of the day. The decor is very nice with stone top freestanding tables and booths. The parking lot is very full on what should be normally slow weeknights so I would assume that many Korean customers really like the place. read more

Okay okay okay. This place hits the spot. Long lines and limited seating are the major downfall. Other than that I felt right at home. Brings me right back to having lunch with my Korean dad back in NJ. Let's start with the option of unlimited serving of select entrees for $28... that alone is a reason to go Bulgogi was outstanding. Well marinated and seasoned beef cooked to perfection by our servers. Spicy pork and pork skin heavily seasoned and outstanding taste. The ponchon could be a little different with a couple different options but all in all really good. Places like this and several others in the ATL area make me wish that I lived her. Great service does this place justice and certainly makes me want to come back. Patrick took care of our table and showed us a very hospitable dinner. Well done and I'll be seeing you soon. read more

Not sure why it doesn't have more stars. Maybe because it's my first time eating Korean BBQ. Maybe because I went yesterday and have already gotten an addiction. As I write this, I'm on my way back. I am a big girl trapped in a tiny body and boy was the fat lady trying to come out after eating this delicious food. My my my my.. My friend who is Korean, his mom and I became really good friends and she said that she would take me after I went on a rant on Facebook that I wanted to try it.. but wanted to go with someone who already knew the process. They serve wine (very limited) some alcoholic Korean concoctions, water, and sodas. I opted for water. We ordered the all you can eat combo. I can't remember the name of everything however the beef (starts with a B)** no pun intended **was AMAZING! Oh wait.. let me back up. We went on a Thursday at 6:00 .. it wasn't crowded and we were seated promptly. The dishes that I can remember bc omg it was THAT much food.. are: spicy tofu soup that I used throughout my entire meal.. dipping everything in. .. cheesy corn.. salad which consisted of lettuce and sweet onions..a simple vinegar dressing made it delicious and lite... Jalepenos mixed with something I can't remember . But they were pickled.. 3 sauces.. one was sesame oil with salt (best one to me) my friend preferred the one that looked like peanut butter but tasted nothing like it however it was also delicious and the last one was some sort of chili sauce... sticky rice.. i'm still thinking..lol.. man it was a lot.. we did get spicy chicken which was delicious.. my least favorite was the pork belly..I just KNEW that I would love it bc I am truly a swine gal.. however it was lacking flavor BUT this is a STRONG but by the way... with all of the sauces .. anything that WAS bland could be made whole again lol..ohhh yeah.. Kimchi...potatoes. and sprouts... I really needed a wheelbarrow after that meal... even when I became full..I found myself still picking food from the grill..I do not apologize for it and I'm going back tonight just to make sure I wasn't dreaming yesterday. Our server was very nice and helpful and even took our picture for us. read more

Our usual kbbq place is Breakers and Oh My Samgyupsal, but decided to try here one day. Least favorite Korean bbq place in Duluth area so far. DO NOT CONFUSE WITH HONEY PIG CHAIN IN WASHINGTON DC AREA! This restaurant is completely unrelated and food quality is terrible. Meat is old, cheap, and not well stored but they charge a price similar to that of Breakers. We got the AYCE option and regretted every bit of it because we couldn't chew through the meat they served! Had to spit it out or make myself swallow the chunks. Will not return to this restaurant EVER. Our server was very polite though, so if anything they have that. I would've given this place 1 star but I did appreciate the service that was provided. One last thing to note - they have had food safety/health violations due to which they had to shut down for a period of time. We found out only after we had gone to the restaurant. read more

I had the opportunity to visit Honey Pig during a Korean food tour in October 2016. Though my trip wasn't the typical experience as it had to be a bit brief, I was able to get a glimpse into the personality and experience of Honey Pig. I'd heard about this restaurant before from a coworker. He praised it, so I was curious. When I saw it was one of the restaurants we would visit on the tour, I was excited. The food was amazing. I had pork belly, kimchi, and fried rice. The food is prepared on a large cast-iron lid instead of a typical grill, which provides a more customized Korean BBQ dining experience. The restaurant is lowly lit, which also provides for a more intimate experience. I could imagine birthday dinners or date nights here. Overall, I enjoyed Honey Pig. I will return. read more

We always leave Honey Pig stuffed to the brim. This place is one of our favorites. I lived in Korea for 16 months, and when I came back, this was the first Korean meal I got to have since "the real thing." We loved it immediately. -- The free stuff: The mung bean sprouts taste exactly they do in Korea. The kimchi, radish soup, thin rice cake, sauces, and even the water cups/bottle and "yogiyo button" are exactly like they are in Korea. When you're finished with your meat entrees, be sure to get the free rice and soup afterward. A server will put the rice on your skillet and mix in everything that's left. It's delicious! Galbi: Not exactly like what I had in Korea, but very close. Honey Pig's version is more tender, and a bit more chewy. Great flavor. I like this meat the best. Bulgolgi: Not what I was expecting, but my husband likes it. There's a lot of bite to it, and it takes my teeth a while to break down the meat. Brisket: Yum. I had this a while back, so I don't remember what I thought of it, but I don't remember it being bad. -- If you go after 6 or on a holiday, expect it to be very busy. We went Christmas Eve and waited about an hour. The place is packed, but that's because the food's so good! Loud, raucous, and happy people, just like it should be. Great for an authentic Korean dining experience and for some amazing food. Can't wait to go again! read more

They're way overpriced. My family and I, (4 adults and a toddler) went here yesterday for dinner and our bill came out to be around $200 after tip. Wth?! The food here is decent but is definitely not worth that price. I honestly don't feel like this korean bbq place is any better than other ones I've tried. We decided to go with the unlimited option which is $27/person. My stepdad wanted to try the shrimp so we ordered that extra. It cost $28 for 4 pieces of shrimp and some mushrooms! We went here yesterday around 6ish and it was crazy busy which I had already expected it to be. We were quoted a 50 minute wait but I don't think it took that long. It was more like 35-40 minutes? Once seated, our waiter came out to take our order. I wanted to try the spicy squid and spicy pork belly but the waiter insisted that I should order those meats last because it tends to burn the grill and would cause the rest of our meats to burn. I really wanted to try it but he was really adamant about me ordering it the end. Instead of fighting with him, I just went ahead and ordered other things. At other korean bbq places, they would change out the grill if this happened. I guess he was trying to save himself the trouble of doing this? I don't know. When I finally got around to ordering the spicy squid and pork, it was brought out by a different waiter and placed atop a piece of foil to cook. I guess it was on the foil to prevent it from burning the grill? Not sure why the first waiter kept insisting that I wait to order the squid and pork if it's cooked on a piece of foil anyways. My recommendation is to save your money and go elsewhere! read more

This place is pretty good albeit a little pricey. I went with one person and we were told if we ordered just one portion of meat it would come pre-cooked and we wouldn't get all the cool stuff you grill at the table. So we ordered 2 meats but they were around $19 each (yikes!). You do get a whole head of kimchi, large amount of bean sprouts to grill, and bottomless salad but the rice is not free. They have some other non-grill plates as well. The place is pretty large but a little dark so it feels bar-like. They iron grill is cool but you'll get spattered with grease just a tad bit. The service was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend trying it at least. read more

I've heard great things about honey pig and finally decided to try it! If you're a big fan of Korean BBQ but are looking for something a little more casual than Breakers, this is your place! The ambiance is very inviting and makes it nice to share a meal with friends. My table of four ordered the combo platter that said it's enough for 3-4 but it was definitely enough for around 5-6! My favorite were the different mushrooms and the bulgogi. The kimchi and rice paper were also great additions to the meats. One thing they don't give you is a bowl of rice with the platter. read more

Honey Pig - Combo platter for 4, serves 6! - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Came here on Labor's Day. Wow, this place is HAWT (as in temperature). I've never seen so many BBQ grills before. We sweated just sitting next to the grill...I can imagine how crowded this place would be in the winter time. We were seated in a booth after a 10 minutes wait by a very kyeopta waiter. I thought this place is aimed toward the cougars since there were so many attractive young men work here...however most of the customers were older Asian men =P Food: Since most of us were half-full, we didn't opt for the AYCE meal ($25.95, great deal!). Come hungry if you want this option. Instead, we got the Honey Pig pork belly, Small Octopus, Small Beef Intestines, and Small Assorted Mushroom. Along with the unlimited Bean Sprouts and Kimchee, there were more than enough food for 5 people. Keep in mind that none of these meat are marinated. So make sure you dip them in the sauces (Miso, Chili, Salt&Pepper&Oil). They also gave us the rice wrappers, which I didn't think add any flavor to the food...ask for lettuce wrap instead! We were in a rush to go home (4 hours drive!), so we skipped the Kimchee Fried Rice at the end =[ I will come earlier next time! Service: As I mentioned before, the guys who work here are cute! Especially my main waiter (the one took care of the inside booths near the restrooms). We actually had 3 different guys came to our table. I assumed they helped each other out. None of them introduced themselves...they were too busy running around. They answered all of my questions but I had to ask them three times for ice water (came in a big bottle) and soda. They brought out Bean Sprouts and Kimchee and refilled them quickly, however, we took the meat and grilled them by ourselves most of the time. I still tipped 20%+ but damn guys, gotta step it up! Service definitely needs improvement. Parking wasn't a problem. We waited about 10 minutes at 6PM on a Monday. It got pretty crowded around 7PM till later so expect a long wait. I will come back when I have a chance to go back to ATL. Hopefully the service will be better. Tip #1: Dress casual and prepare for a long shower after. Tip #2: Come hungry if you planned to order the AYCE meal. Tip #3: Ask for lettuce wrap and the Kimchee Fried Rice at the end. 2013/#74 read more

OINK OINK! Come prepared to rock out with your K-pop out! The good... Got the bulgolgi, spicy sam gyub sal and octopus. Everything tasted pretty good. I can't complain about that. It tasted better than Iron Age. They actually season the meat. Octopus wasn't seasoned. Waitress was awesome! Super attentive The bad... According to the reviews, we are supposed to get fried rice. Well, we never received any fried rice nor was there any mention of fried rice. We had over 50 dollars worth of food for 2 people and no rice?! But... Iron Age gives me rice. The ugly... All of the cups we had to use for water were dirty. And the metal chopsticks were ridiculous. I'm asian and am used to eating with chopsticks. But man, those things were fatiguing. My fingers definitely had a good workout today. While the food is better than Iron Age, I find it pretty expensive for what it is. From what I've heard, LA has affordable BBQ that's also tasty. I propose a fusion of Honey Pig and Iron Age... Iron Pig... affordable cuts of meat that have seasoning on them! I think I'll just buy my own meats and have my own K-BBQ at home from now on. Quality, seasoned meats at my place! read more

Honey Pig - Bugolgi and octopus - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

SO GOOD. I am Korean and have tried many different Korean bbqs in New York (my hometown), California (college), and Georgia (my new home) and Honey Pig always tops the list. We ordered Chadol (beef brisket), prime steak, and samgyupsal (pork belly). It's grilled with seasoned bean sprouts and kimchi! I love wrapping the meat with dduk (sticky rice paper) and moo (pickled radish). Towards the end they bring gaelan jiim (steamed egg custard) and the mix the rice with whatever meat you left order + bean sprouts + kimchi + mushrooms! A nice way to end a meal! It can get busy and the waiters work hard and have many tables to wait so don't expect them to cook everything for you. You may have to flip meat yourself but don't flip too much or else you lose the flavor. The waiters are great though and will bring out extra sides when you need! Definitely recommend this KBBQ place!! read more

First time here. First thing we noticed is that the chairs we sat in all sank. Not comfortable. The water is served in metal cups. If you are sensitive to metal tastes you will not like it. Ask for a glass glass. We tried the pork belly,Beef bulgogi and pork bulgogi. The pork belly was fantastic! Loved it wrapped in the rice wrappers. Beef bulgogi was very good. Heavy on black pepper. I ordered a bowl or rice to go with it. (rice was plain short grain white rice. Kinda boring) Pork bulgogi was very tender and sweet. Did not have the heaviness of black pepper like the beef. I would recommend Honey Pig. If I do it again it would be for pork belly and rib eye w rice wrappers. read more

After much hype, I finally had the chance to eat here on my last visit to Atlanta. This place is held by my circle of friends as the pinnacle of Korean BBQ in the area. I've had Iron Age as well as all the places on Buford Hwy... so I expected this place to be a clear level above all the others. I would say that the food was definitely good, but I'm not sure if I could clearly tell its superiority to all the other places. "What about the quality of the meat?" my friends would ask. 'It's good. Better, but not exceptional." Thus, this place does not earn anything above 3 stars. You get better meat, but is that worth the $10+ extra you pay versus the other places? I'm not exactly sure, as the whole aim of the All-You-Can-Eat Korean BBQ is quantity, as long as it's above a certain quality. I would say all the other places have the quality, but it's about the quantity for price. I don't think I could justify 4 stars for this place as it doesn't represent a better value for taste compared to the other All-You-Can-Eat Korean BBQ places. read more

For so many years, I have always thought this place has the highest quality (and price) among all the other Korean bbq restaurants. Came to celebrate my new job. Got in with only 3 tables of customers, seemed like a slow day. The waiter was nervous and kept making mistakes. He told me it was his first day. I said "it's okay, take your time." He never came back to our table to help us or ask what we need, and neither did any other waiters. I had to cook all of it by myself. Plus, 95% of our pork belly was just straight up fat. No, I am not joking, they were just white fat with a thin line of "meat". After at least 20 mins, I was so mad that I pressed the ring button. The lady came, and I was politely telling her that nobody checked on us at all and showing her fatty pork belly pieces. She got mad and told me that pork bellies are fat and interrupted me explaining why I was upset by saying "okay, what do you want." Got the second order of the night, and they, again, never come to ask nor help us while all the other tables (even those that came in after us) were being served. My server was helping other tables but not ours. Imagine you came here paying 80 dollars to get pork bellies that were just white fat and received no service at all. This is my first time giving such a detailed bad review. I will never come back to here ever. read more

I have been happily coming to Honey Pig for over 5 years and have probably spent well over 2000 dollars at this restaurant. I have dined by myself multiple times over the years and have always been happily served, until tonight! I drove over 45 minutes to come to my favorite Korean bbq restaurant, I was set down, and asked what I would like to order, so I ordered my usual "Unlimited" the waiter tells me that they have a minimum of two people rule- I ask if this is a new rule and I am told that they have always had this rule. I asked "how have I been able to eat here by myself on so many occasions?" the waiter tells me that who ever served me was in the wrong and that this has always been store policy- however it is not listed on Honey Pigs website, nor is it listed on Honey pigs Menu! That's strange, you would think it would be clearly listed online or in store if this has always been store policy. I asked for a manager and was told by the waiter that there was no manager available and that he was the head waiter and that he would do nothing for me! Nor did he offer any further explanation or option to this long time customer. I will make sure that I take my business, birthdays and group gatherings across the street to Iron Age or 678 from this point forward. It's a shame to be a long time customer and be treated so poorly. read more

Wow...I gotta admit that I was thoroughly impressed with everything about this restaurant. I will also admit I wasn't expecting too much from a Korean restaurant in Atlanta, but was pleasantly surprised upon coming into Honey Pig. One of the friends that I went with declared Honey Pig as the most authentic korean bbq restaurant that she's had in the U.S...in terms of service, food, etc. We decided to go with the all you can eat option, which is definitely the way to go for those who enjoy food (and if you're reading this yelp review, you probably really enjoy food). I can't remember the names of all the meats, but there were 5 or 6 different options to choose from, and they start from non-marinated and you can make your way progressively to marinated meats. This place also has rice wraps that you can wrap the meat in, but does not have the salad (until later) that typically accompanies korean bbq meals in LA. I want to say that the quality of meat was pretty good, and that all the vegetables that accompanied the meal (kim chi + bean sprouts) were delicious as well. My only gripe would be that there wasn't any pan cheon (little korean side dishes)... To end the meal, the waiter cooked a fried rice mixed with salad, seaweed, etc. on our grill and it was delicious...hadn't ever tried that before from a korean restaurant and was thoroughly impressed... and just when you think it's all over, they bring you soon du bu and only two things run through your mind 1) omg i'm too full 2) ...are we being charged for the fried rice and soon du bu? The answer is no, it's all included in the meal! Overall, the waitstaff was friendly, food was great, came with a party of 6 and easily got seated...great place to go! read more

Honey pig offers Korean bbq of decent quality. I enjoyed the side dishes that go very well with the BBQ meat. At my visit last Friday, apart from the usual bean sprouts and kim chi, 3 sides were available:1) Wrappers to wrap the cooked meat 2) scallions for the wrap and 3) the fermented turnip. This is the only bbq I know off that offers kim chi fried rice at the very end of the meal. There are three draw backs to Honey Pig: 1) It's overpriced to the quantity of the food available 2) Wait time could be quite long. If you arrive after 7pm, you may need to wait over an hour. 3) Poor service, esp. during peak hours. We turn the meat ourselves majority of the time. When we ordered additional items, it took half an hour to get here; though those items are served raw on top of the stove! For readers who want to try Korean bbq once in a while though, Honey Pig is not a bad choice! read more

Honey Pig was my favorite kbbq spot as a student! I loved their variety of meats and that they opened so late (perfect for odd hour desperation munchies!). Recently, the establishment seems to be overshadowed by the many newer bbq joints popping up all over the place. However, fond memories remained and my friends and I decided to go back mainly because Honey Pig is open so late on weekends. We showed up a little over 2 hours before closing on Saturday and were told that Honey Pig was closed. I understand that the kitchen often closes earlier but 2+ hours seems a bit premature.The place was pretty empty so maybe the staff wanted to go home early? Anyway, we ended up eating elsewhere. read more

I can here with my buddy to try it out. He is Korean and highly recommended this place. It did not disappoint. We got the unlimited buffet which came with so much different meats. You basically tell them what you want and they bring it to you. My favorites were the green tea pork, beef brisket, and curry pork. The food was amazing and very worth the $27.99 per person buffet. I will Definitely come back again! The waiter service were great as well! read more

There is something "off" about Honey Pig; the Nuevo - Korean BBQ restaurant in a decidedly Korean - centric part of Duluth. It's an unsettling place and I'm trying to put my finger on it. Maybe it's the ratio of protein to dineros - to me it's quite pricey for the proportions of meat/seafood that are given (and granted, our table did not order the UNLIMITED @ $26.95/pp). Or, it could be the wait staff. Now this is a personal bias, but it is 100% Korean hipster - dudes. Some of the most beautiful women in the world are Korean - hire some! So me and 27 other folks visited Honey Pig Tuesday night as part of a local MeetUp group called Buford Highway Foodies. We took up the more private side of the cavernous restaurant decorated with just enough pig paraphernalia to let you know it's a southern (albeit Korean) BBQ joint. Groups of 4 foodies shared a Ssot Dduk Kung, or iron cast lid that is super-heated by a fire underneath and used as a grilling apparatus. Honey Pig prides itself on its kimchi and it along with mung beans are amply spread around the grill when it's fired up. A cold palette cleansing soup is provided as well as dipping sauces (sesame oil with course salt, sriracha, bean paste) and wraps for the proteins to follow. We ordered pork belly, beef boneless short rib, and scallops. Again, while skimpy on the protein, it was fresh and tasty. The pork belly was fatty and delicious. The beef rib pieces could have been larger but were of quality meat. And the scallops, 8 in #, were big, succulent, and tasty. At the end of the meal, for a 3 dollar upcharge you get a small bowl kimchi rice spread over the grill and crisped together with all the stray tasty bits left over from the grilling. It's a good addition but an awkward upcharge. The total bill for 4 (with no alcohol) was $105. Recommendation: maybe visit once to be a part of the hipster scene but stick to Buford Highway where the meat is more plentiful and the prices less steep . read more

There's a big hype of All-You-Can-Eat Korean BBQ. Therefore, there was a long line in front of the restaurant. Luckily, we beat the crowd by going there in 7pm. You have 3 options in Honey Pig: 1 Order whatever you want by dish and pay for every dish; 2. Order Combination A or B; 3 The unlimited combo, but the catch is you can't order every kind of meat. Last time, we chose option 1 and ordered several dishes, but we left not full... A lesson learned. This time, we ordered the unlimited combo for 4 persons. The K-pop music was so loud, that we needed to shout to each other to have a conversation. But magically, we ended up with good conversations, and forgot to order every kind of meat. Every meat we tried was of high quality, and we totally enjoyed it. What a pity to forget green tea and wine(?). They put kimchi and bean sprouts to the round grill first, then all kinds of meat. My friends who eat veggies a lot seemed to love them. I, as a carnivore, loved their meats. Brisket was thinly sliced, yet just a warm-up. The Sam-Gyum-Sal was just the right portion of fat and lean meat! The idea of putting pork skin on the grill is also genius. Chicken bulgogi was sweet in every bite, and squid was my favorite, even though the spiciness was hard to handle(BE AWARE!). It was almost summer time, but they did not turn the A/C to a cool degree. The same thing happened last time. 20% tips are automatically added. All the little things wiped off one star. read more

Honey Pig - Briskets, kimchi and bean sprouts - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Pros: AYCE KBBQ available, squid is included in the special, good options of sides to eat with your meats, customer service was good, great place for big parties, & cute little ambiance. Cons: This exact location was amazing the first time we visited this place. When we came back to town 3 years later, we were truly disappointed in the meat & just overall quality of the food. Our meats had little to no taste even with sauces. :( read more

Food was good, service was ehhhh We went for a co workers birthday, and the boss man got splatter with meat juice For the pricing it could definitely be better! read more

I used to look forward to coming here every time I am near Atlanta just because there isn't a place like this in Tennessee or North Carolina. But of course in California there are way better places then this. But the prices have gone Wayyy up costing us like $30 a person just to get full. They don't even give you that much meat for the price. The music is too loud in here like going to the club and you end up having to shout to your family members across the table. Menu- would recommend getting the honey pig signature pork belly and boneless prime short rib. Drinks- highly recommend rice wine read more

As a Korean food lover from Minnesota, Korean BBQ is something that I usually can only dream of. After starving myself after a day of traveling to ATL, I drooled with anticipation on the car ride straight from the airport with my dad. Naturally I ordered the unlimited option. I only found out after that the price doesn't include the elusive Galbi or marinated short ribs but I figured the pork belly and brisket would satisfy my carnivorous desires. The server gave us plenty of kimchi that was cooked on the stove as well, which was positioned to soak in the tasty meat juice. The meat quality was solid, with just enough fat to keep things tender and the kimchi was a good level of sour. They provided the usual soy bean sauce, some chili sauce, and seasoning salt, which kept things interesting. The service was pretty decent as well. The waiter was relatively attentive though I think because we were seated in the corner, it took him longer to get to us, forcing us to attempt to grill. For the cons: it was a hot summer day and there didn't seem to be any form of air conditioning. Also, I noticed our plastic bottle that our water came in was deformed, likely from the hear. I hope I didn't drink plastic! Finally, the price was a little higher than I would have liked, given that the selection of meat was more limited than I wanted. Overall though, it was a solid Korean BBQ experience. I knew that because I left the restaurant ready to go into a food coma and never wanting to eat meat again. read more

My friends and I always come here when it's time to have our bi-weekly or monthly Korean BBQ feast. I am Korean so it's nice seeing my non-Korean friends enjoy this food! We usually get the unlimited so that we can try whatever we desire. I cannot wait for the holidays so that I can bring my other family members from out of town here! Great social meal but 1 thing-- I would like it if service was a tad more attentive. Usually the servers come to your table and cook the meat or check up on the meat for you periodically. But the last few times that didn't happen too much. But that's all! read more

Honey Pig - Gettin down and dirty eating everything. - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Everytime, when I have a chance to go to Atlanta, my husband and I must visit Honey Pig! lol. I recommend you guys have dinner instead of lunch time. I also love their side dishes: cold kimchee soup, rice paper, especially, kimchee fried rice with seaweed, soybean with sesame oil and homemade kimchee,... Great service and quality food! Tip: If you are confused where you should go between Iron Age or Honey Pig, dont hesitate to come Honey Pig. I came to Iron Age before, but I didnt like really much. Since, they are too crowded, long line, slow service speed. read more

Honey Pig - Korean Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I love taking people to Honey Pig for a good culinary experience. Most people have never tried Korean BBQ and if they have, it typically stops at Kimchi. The food here is delicious and the service is great. I would recommend this place for a date, or it's also a great place to share food with a large group of people! They have an option where you can try unlimited meats of various things, which I highly recommend for a first timer. I wish they had the same unlimited option for seafood, but all in all, it's still wonderful! read more

Upon entering Honey Pig, we were perplexed and not sure of the type of restaurant it was. Typical American interpretation of the name would be a southern barbeque joint, but as we waited to be seated, it became apparent this was a Korean barbeque restaurant. There were many tables with large cast iron lids topped with sizzling meat and vegetables, revealing aromas which instantly drew us in. After eating bean sprouts, kimchee, duck, pork, condiments, and a salad, to our surprise, they brought out rice and another soup. The rice was placed on the lid and mixed in with whatever you had left on the lid. We did not know this, so we ate all our meat and only had a few vegetables left, but the rice was delicious. After eating rice, the grand finale was a bowl of hot traditional Korean soup brought out in a cast iron bowl. This was so much food for an unbelievable price of only $21 per person. Overall, we had a delightful experience and lots of fun. I will say the service is not the best by American standards, as our server was not friendly. But, I really did not care, as the food was so good and the experience with my family was priceless. read more

It was my first time @ Honey pig and I was very much unimpressed. For the pricing I'd figure we'd have a decent range of options but really all you're getting is pork belly(lame seasoning) and 2 other meats.. one beef and one chicken. It was so disappointing. Usually I'm excited for the corn with cheese and by far that's the WORST one I've ever had. When asked to bring a few more mushroom because when you first come in they just give you TWO heads of mushrooms, they said that we'd have to be charge. The meal was 33.00 and not to be able to bring extra mushrooms is insane. The menu selection is a joke and TASTE wise was just a let down. Do better Honey Pig. read more

This place was delicious! Sujin and the rest of the staff took such good care of us! Our favorite dishes were the curry pork belly and the marinated pork butt. The staff made us feel so comfortable! read more
