Rice and salad that comes with it
Kris A.

It was great! Edwin took really good care of us tonight! He was funny and kind to talk to as well, which always makes the experience feel good that you can connect with someone during your time at the restaurant . We got a bit of everything as part of breaking our diet for date night: squid, spicy chicken, marinated steak, and last the lemon pepper chicken, which Edwin validated was a great choice (and that it was hehehe). Best with groups for sure, but also great for just two. Nomnomnomnom

My husband and I went to the Duluth location last week for the first time. I really loved the screen on the wall playing music videos! I didn't understand the music, but I liked it anyway lol. It was pretty loud at first -- I couldn't even hear my husband sitting right next to me but we asked the server if they could turn it down just a little, and they actually did, which we really appreciated. Our server was cool and friendly, and the food was good. The bulgogi was my favorite, so good! The restaurant appeared clean, but my only issue was that the floor was very slippery. I'm not sure if they had just mopped or if it was greasy, but I almost fell.

Overall super great!!! Cheaper than most bbq spots but this one still hits really good. Let me tell you what you can get for $32 in dinner time. The ambiance feels like a night club, loud music and spacious. The service was great! Our server went above and beyond The food was super tasty and worth every penny!!! Will absolutely be back!!

Been to Iron Age in VA and had a great experience, so while visiting GA, my friend & I had to check out the Iron Age in Duluth. Compared to other Korean Bbq locations, Iron Age keeps dining very simplistic. Starting from the menu choices, where there are two options which is a la carte or all you can eat. My friend and I both got the all you can eat option for around $30 per adult. The meats we tried were the brisket and unseasoned steak. We cooked the brisket to make it slightly crispy and dipping it into the sauces provided, it was really good. The unseasoned steak was cooked medium rare, but it had too much fat and chewy for me to enjoy. We ordered the brisket few times and called it a day. I feel like they short changed us on the egg portion. Small portions in a small aluminum bowl to cook over the fire, my friend wasn't too thrilled. The kimchi here wasn't bad, was more of the fresh kind than the fermented. Our waiter was really cool & friendly. He not only cooked our meat to our liking but also recommended other good Korean bbq places in the area. They have a Photo Booth in the front with amazing lighting. Scan the QR code and the picture will be send to your phone. We ended up getting some amazing pictures that night. Solid 3.5 of 5 stars.

Soy steak and seasoned steak

Good food very good service Joshua took care of us and 32 all you can eat, lemon chicken and soy steak are awesome.

First time here and in years today and I remembered why I stopped coming. The meat was so low quality. Very small selection of meats. They barely had any sides. They only had rice, rice cakes, salad and steamed eggs. The steak was full of tendons. They had broken cups that leaked all over my pants. We aren't Asian and none of the Asian staff would talk to us. I said "thank you" so one of the staff to be polite, she looked at me and walked away. My brother said "have a good day" to another one and she just stared at us without saying anything. The walls were dirty af. On top of it, I saw a review from yesterday where a lady had a roach on her sauce. No thanks. Pls just close down.

I asked for original bulgogi came out hawaian bulgogi
Ines N.

The freshness of the meat wasn't good. The service is good enough considering we didn't get the right order. Also the side dishes, they are so limited with it. Only 3 beef dishes for lunch. The ambience nice. But I don't feel like at all you can eat restaurant because of not so many food

Rebecca C.

We were happily surprised at the excellence of this KBBQ spot in the Korean hub of Duluth. Our server Matt was attentive and offered great suggestions. The bulgogi was SUPREME! The marinated sauce on both the regular and Hawaiian was sweet and savory. The side options were plenty, such as rice, steamed egg, and kimchi. The spot itself is very modern and darkly lit with music videos all around which would make this a great spot for evenings and weekends. For $22 at lunch we will definitely be returning if we're back in the area.

Came here as a party of 2 on a Friday night and was seated promptly. Standard Korean bbq fare with all of the fixings. Our waitress was attentive and our food was fresh. Cool place to come with a group as they have booth style seating, music playing and music videos on the tvs throughout. We didn't eat much but the food was plentiful.

A fun place to celebrate an occasion. Beyond that, it's rather underwhelming in flavor and in options for the price of a KBBQ.

Does anyone know what the mayo looking dipping sauce is? They give you 4 dipping sauces to start out with. A spicy one, a salty one, a sweet one, but I can't figure out what the yellow/ mayo looking sauce is.

It's similar to the sauce you often get at Japanese hibachi restaurants - sometimes called Yum Yum sauce or a variation. It is pretty good on chicken and vegetables. It is a mayo based sauce with tomato paste, sugar, rice wine vinegar, butter,… 

What are the 4 dipping sauces at ironage And what's in it?

In no particular order bc I am not sure of the original names, the flavor profiles are these. *… 

All you can eat?

Yes, but they updated their prices!

Is there an updated lunch menu with prices for 2022? I only see menus from 2 years ago listed.

the prices have increased by a minimum of 50% and they've limited the menu options

Is there a kids menu like at Thrill?

No.

Does anyone know the name of the sauces?

Sesame Oil w/salt & pepper, sweet oil, chili sauce, yum yum sauce

Hey everyone I want a sauce thats on the menu at Iron Age is gas salt and pepper in it? Do any one know?

Sesame Oil

Where can I get the dipping sauces so I can buy to use at home during this quarantine?

Try Hmart, they have a vast variety there.

How do we make reservations? Do we have to call or can we do it online?

you have to physically be there. make sure you get there early or send someone to WAIT but also take in mind if the whole party isnt there depending how busy they usually will skip your turn.

I want to take my boyfriend here for his birthday with his family. Family of 11..! How much would it be per person? Anybody know??!

$25 per person

Has anyone gotten good service from some employee here named Dennis?

It varies honestly.

Does anyone know exactly what the sweet dipping sauce is? I keep getting different answers of what it might be.

Galbi Sauce

How manny people can you have in a party/group?

8+ People for a reservation.

This is the first time we want to try korean bbq, how many knd of meat can we choose per all you can eat order? Can we choose each kind?

There is only about enough room on the grill for two at a time. So they typically want you to order only two at a time, but you can order as many times as you like.

How and What kind of soups does this restaurant offer; and is that included in the $23 price for dinner if that is all that you order?

The last time I was there in December. The price includes a type of beef soup. Nothing exciting. Yeah I don't think they have a separate price for just the soup. If you only want soup maybe try a different place while your party gets bbq at places… 

I noticed that there have been some changes to the menu. Could someone tell me the changes(including price for lunch)? I'm choosing between Breakers and Iron Age

The last time I was there they didn't have my two favorite things, which are pork belly and brisket. I like the brisket so much I typically started and ended the meal with a round of brisket. My visit was about a month ago and I haven't been back… 

Does any other kbbq have the mashed potato banchan that Iron Age used to have?

Do you mean the potatoes salad? If that what you're looking for then yes!!!! It's at breakers k bbq!!! Sometimes they bring it out but sometimes you have to ask for it. They also have the rice paper! It's across the street from Iron Age. It's… 

Anybody knows another Korean bbq that charges 23 per person like Iron Age?

JM BBQ in the same plaza as Sweet Hut on Pleasant Hill. Breakers Monday to Thursday is $26.

Are there any restaurants that are like Iron Age used to be before they changed their menu? That is, they have thin-sliced brisket, pork belly, rice paper wrappers, and kimchi cooked on the grill?

9292 (down the street from iron age) is similar to how iron age used to be... I go there now instead of iron age.

We had naengmyeon (cold noodles) and mandu (dumplings) for lunch at Naju Myunok yesterday. It was…read moregood. This is a popular, casual, quasi-cafeteria-style Korean restaurant in Duluth. This restaurant soft-opened in March 2024 and officially opened in April 2024 in the old Breakers Korean barbecue space near the defunct Gwinnett Place Mall, and I-85 at Pleasant Hill Rd (exit 104). It's spacious, but can fill up quick. We arrived at noon on a Saturday and there were still plenty of open tables. However, by the time we left, shortly after 1pm, it was packed with people looking for tables. Someone jumped on our table as we were getting up to leave. This is not a sit-down restaurant. Instead, you order at one of two touchscreen kiosks at the entrance and then wait for your number to be called to pick up your food. Everything is self-serve, from condiments to hot broth. You also bus your own table. Here's what three of us got: B3. Heo [sic] Naengmyeon ($16.99) - spicy sweet potato starch noodles with raw fish (should be spelled "hoe") C3-B1. Naengmyeon and Yuk Jeon ($20.99) - cold sweet potato starch noodles and thinly sliced beef pancake C1-B1. Naengmyeon and Dwaeji Yang Nyum Gui ($18.99) - cold sweet potato starch noodles and grilled pork neck D4. Kimchi Son Mandu ($11.99) - handmade kimchi dumplings My wife and I love naengmyeon. We thought Naju's version was good, especially in this fast-casual format. To nitpick, the noodles stuck together and the ice melted too fast. Regardless, I found the noodles to be delicious, refreshing, and satisfying. The spicy version came with a small bowl of icy broth on the side. The raw fish, beef pancake, and grilled pork neck were all tasty and of decent quality. As for the handmade kimchi dumplings, they were legit. Big and filling. In addition to naengmyeon, Naju also offers a variety of Korean soups (e.g., seolleongtang - ox bone soup and gomtang - beef bone soup) and LA galbi (grilled short ribs). During our visit, the pickup counter was staffed by a bunch of ajummas (Korean middle-aged women), basically Korean lunch ladies. I'd come back. This place seems ideal for a quick stop for an easy and reliable Korean meal / comfort food.

Maybe I just don't get this niche area of Korean cuisine but I found the cold soup kind of bland…read moreand most of the normal dishes I expect on a Korean menu, kimchi, the sides, japchae, etc. didn't seem to be there. The dumplings I ordered were kinda meh too. I feel like I could boil some Bibigo or Pulmuone dumplings from H-Mart and they would have been better. But again, this is a pretty big Korean area outside Atlanta and its possible I just don't know what I'm talking about on this one. In any case, it isn't really for me, and the dumplings were not great.

I do not feel as though downtown Duluth truly captures the amazing food scene of the city, but again, an old friend did like it enough to tell me about it. Inside was pretty spacious. High ceilings and bright. You have to go up front and order, and they'll give you a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready. Pretty standard so far. It's not too loud, even with the music playing in the background, so not bad for hanging out with friends after the food is done, though we didn't. We were all pretty disappointed with our food. It wasn't bad, thankfully, it was just meh. We could've literally drove 5 minutes away for better, so we left as soon as we finished. The good thing is you get to choose what protein you want with your dish, which is nice. However, the chicken katsu here is thin. Also, the K-Fried chicken doesn't really mesh with the pasta. It's like a skewer on the side of your main dish. You can eat them separately and be happy enough. I was ok with the bulgogi, but I would've expected better from a Korean establishment. I haven't tried every single protein option, but I won't lie, tofu in pasta isn't the most appealing to me. For the main dishes, it was pretty bland, especially the omurice. You need the egg and the protein for flavor. The Schezwan pasta wasn't even spicy. At least the carbonara was creamy as it should be.

"Mom's Kitchen Table", a literal translation to their business name, lives up to the name itself, no lie. The mom definitely uses fresh ingredients and put that extra care/preps to deliver the full spectrum of Korean home meals to the line - taste the banchans here and you will understand. A bit over-seasoned at times. but considering these are complimentary to rice, the main dish of a Korean meal, it is meticulously arranged to give the neutral umami you seek. One worry I have when I discover gems like this - the owner/mom must stay healthy and never retire, so everyone who are curious can experience it, at least once in their cycle. People who frequent other Korean restos may feel this restaurant is a bit pricey (a few bucks or so), but I will gladly pay for that few delta so I can have the best Korean home meal available in the area, period.

And wow, from K-Mom's service herself (and I think maybe her husband?) to the food taste AND presentation, this place is now on the repeat visit circuit. First let me rave about the banchan selection - not only is there 10 different banchan, they are quality banchan (see pics) ... my favorites were the anchovies w/ peanuts, spicy raw squid, radish kimchi, and shiitake mushrooms. The menu selection is your usual traditional Korean dishes and the prices may seem high but competitive w/ other Korean restos - and very worth it when you think about all the tasty banchan accompanying your meal. JE YOOK BOKUM - $17.99 Spicy stir-fried pork. Pretty good. Also came w/ a big bowl of seaweed soup (nice surprise and delicious) AND purple rice ... I love purple rice! YOOK GAE JANG - $15.99 My friend said it was very good! I only tasted the soup part and it was good! Overall, highly recommend - their food is a great example of 손맛 (sonmat). I'll be back for sure!

Shortly after we were seated, (literally 1-2 minutes) about 3 employees came to our table letting us know we needed to order within the next few minutes. It was like 10:05. I tried asking one of the employee what the meat options were and was just interrupted by him being persistent in us ordering and did not really answer our questions, mainly because I noticed some of the meat options were pork and I do not consume pork for personal reasons. My partner and I felt overwhelmed and just ordered something we thought would not include pork. After submitting our order another employee came by with the check already without us asking insisting for us to pay before our food even came out. Mind you the restaurant closed within 20 minutes at this point. When our food did come out, it did contain PORK!!! We just left shortly afterwards and left the food on the table.
