complimentary soup
Rose E.

We came here exactly the same time last year...but I remember we were bit disappointed in how ridiculously spicy-hot the Galbijiim was! Still, I really liked the vibe of the restaurant, and all that they had to offer, so we decided to try again. Well, again, we ordered the Galbijjim...and this time, there wasn't a Regular or Spicy like last time. We also ordered a small size of Seafood Pancake. Well...Gotta be frank. This time, the Galbijjim was TOO mild. In fact, it even had this brown watery soup base (which I don't remember was a thing with Galbijjim??). WOW. Just can't seem to find the right balance here. Quite disappointing because we both were knocked over by just how AMAZING it was in the original Duluth location. Unfortunately, the Galbijjim at this location is just not the same. It's either too hot-spicy...or too mild (and soupy?!?). Also, the portion is WAY smaller...almost too small. If you look at the hot pot, it barely fills the bowl (?!?). Too mild...too soupy...and too skimpy. So again, we were quite disappointed. We agreed that if we're to have Galbijjim, we'll be going to the Duluth location over this one. Two Strikes, and OUT for me! Their side dishes were good...but again, I felt that the Duluth location offers a much more spirited variety of sides as well. Not sure why this is the case? I found this surprising as well...given how high the ratings were here?? Luckily, there was something we were impressed with...and that was their Seafood Pancake. It was MUCH crunchier than how I remembered it in the past...and both my husband and I agreed that this was THE best version we've had to date! We regretted not ordering the large size of this...as we enjoyed this more than the Galbijjim! It's so unfortunate that I'm still not able to upgrade the review to 5 stars...especially given how I love the vibe of this restaurant! Service is quite good too. But their Galbijjim continues to disappoint...so must dock another star. Maybe if I/we revisit, I'll order something else from their menu...and hopefully, it'll be better than their version of Galbijjim???

We had a reservation and were seated immediately upon arrival. Our server was very patient and did an excellent job explaining the menu and dishes. Since a couple of us are vegetarian, she was also very accommodating with modifications to meet our dietary preferences. The ambiance was lovely and made for a great lunch date setting. However, the food portions were on the smaller side, and the bibimbap was served differently from the traditional style we expected. Overall, we found the flavors to be just average and not particularly memorable. While the service and atmosphere were excellent, we're not sure we'd return specifically for the food.

0/5 stars. What kind of scam is this???? As a korean, this place was a huge disappointment. First off, jjamppong no matter where you go all have a distinct, staple taste. The spicy jjamppong here tasted horrible. it was just noodles with 5 pieces of over cooked and old seafood in chili paste broth.... Second. The bibimbap? why would they serve it on a FLAT plate? it was so hard to mix the rice in it. Portion size of this dish was like kids menu. Not sure if they only focused on the aesthetics of the restaurant but there no need for you to waste money here.

Banchan
Sarena T.

Definitely come here for the lunch combos ($16-20 ea)! It comes with beef broth soup and great sides including a veggie pancake, gimbap, spicy tofu, and more. I loved the Duluth location and this was my first time at the Alpharetta one! The Duluth one has different ownership now. I got the tofu soup, tasty as always! Unfortunately this location doesn't have purple rice though. The banchan (side dishes) were solid too and you can ask for refills. There are only about 10 booths so I would make a reservation if you're coming at a peak time. As for parking, there's a free public parking garage down the street a couple blocks - search up "Alpharetta public garage". Street parking is also free, 3 hr limit.

I have been going to the Duluth Jang Su Jang for many years. After hearing it changed ownership, I figured I should try out this location. It's located in downtown Alpharetta so there is either street parking or a parking deck that is a short walk away. Upon entering, this location is a completely different vibe than the original location. The Duluth location is large and warm, with a cozy homestyle and humble interior. This location gives a more upscale and elegant feeling. All the dinnerware are a matching silver. While the original location has a mix and match of many different kinds of plates/bowls for the banchan. Like some other reviews mentioned, the food is not exactly the same even though the menu looks more or less similar. They don't serve the same purple rice here (my favorite!) or give a raw egg to crack into the hot soondubu soup. The seafood pancake which I loved from the Duluth location, is extremely hard and crunchy here. I like it a bit crispy but still soft inside. It may be down to preference though. Just something to remember because I did see other reviews mention the crispier/harder texture here as well. The soup and banchan are still good. Just not exactly the same. This location is definitely still worth a try though if you are a fan of the original location!

I love coming to Jang Su Jang for authentic Korean food. My favorite dishes are Korean army stew, bulgolgi, spicy pork, seafood pancake, tofu soup, and ttebboki. The side dishes are great, and the staff is extremely friendly. Seating is comfortable, and it's easy bringing my two babies here. Parking can be a bit tricky since they're located in downtown Alpharetta, but there's a parking lot nearby.

Amazing food. So delicious and the wait staff are all so nice. Love their sides, galbi, and bibimbap.

My coworkers and I have been going here whenever we need a quick Korean food fix but it has been letting us down every time. Jang Su Jang is super popular Korean restaurant in Duluth and the owner recently sold off its original location in Duluth as well as JS Kitchen banchan store while keeping the Milton Jang Su Jang location. Like other comments, parking is a bit hectic but there is a deck you can park in on the next stret over. Interior is much fancier while the initial location has very traditional Korean vibe to it. JSJ is known for their side dishes, hence they had their own banchan/side dishes store. Also has a diverse menu, which my goto was the galbijjim or haemulkalgooksu. Each visit we visited the Milton location, food was bland but we kept telling each other it'll be better next time and we'll try something else next time but I think we just had enough. Here's all the disappointments. They dont have the same purple rice from their original location. Banchan is not as good - kimchi is watered down, japchae is so dry, and etc... Half of the sides are bland which is also true for the entrees as well. I used to love Duluth JSJ seafood pancake but here, they changed to more fried and crispy version that hurts the roof of my mouth. My favs such as haemulkalgooksu has no depth in it here. Also all the other soup entrees that my coworkers tried such as yukgaejang and galbitang were all let down as well. While we love having a Korean spot in Alpharetta, just little disappointed that they tone down the flavor.

Our family has mostly visited Jang Su Jang in Duluth, so this was our first time trying the Alpharetta location. When we used to go to the Duluth Jang Su Jang nearly ten years ago, it was mainly for comforting dishes like Soondoobu, something very affordable and casual. The Alpharetta Jang Su Jang felt quite different. It's located inside a hotel, and the atmosphere is much more upscale. Because of that, the prices are not cheap, and the overall vibe is more polished than what we were used to. It truly felt like a different version of Jang Su Jang. The food was very good, and the service was also excellent. Everything was well prepared, and the staff was attentive. However, as Korean visitors coming from out of state, it felt a bit distant from the Korean community, which makes it less likely for us to return regularly. That said, it's definitely worth visiting at least once, especially if you're looking for a more elegant Korean dining experience in Alpharetta.

Seafood Pancake
Tyrone Omar N.

Tried Jang Su Jang for the first time and was genuinely impressed. The food was incredibly flavorful, especially the seafood pancake and soon tofu soup. Everything tasted fresh and authentic, and the banchan selection was generous and varied. The staff was kind and attentive, and the overall vibe felt warm and welcoming. To call your server at any time you just press a button on the table which is very clever. Excited to come back and try more!

Korean Short Ribs

I returned to Jang Su Jang a second time. This was just as great as the last! The owner, Steven, was there to greet us again and talk. He is very proud of his food and he should be. He made sure to take care of me and my guests. And we ate so much. The service was so attentive. I know our serves went back and forth every 10 minutes just to get us more kimchi pickles. They are so amazing they should be jarred and sold We had a repeat of the previous dishes and added pork belly to it. I ordered short ribs to go with as many pickles as they could give me. I can't wait to be hungry to eat all my leftovers. Please make the journey up to Alpharetta to eat at Jang Su Jang. Steven works hard on this food and it shows. You will love the ambiance of such a friendly restaurant.

Do they take reservations for 2 on weekends?

Is there a parking lot or an easy access garage? Any parking fees?

You can park on the street but parking space is limited, as this restaurant is located at downtown. However there is an uncovered public parking just a couple blocks away. That parking is not free and I can't recall how much it is to park there…

There was no line when we arrived and sure enough, as it got closer to noon, the line was almost to the door (and the line wraps around the interior of the restaurant.

There was a good amount of meat and they were chunks so I ended up just eating the meat and the bread separately with a fork instead of biting into it like a sandwich. The sauces were great and my favorite part was the side iI got, the mashed sweet potato. It was some of the best I've ever had and I would repeat this meal in a heartbeat!

This is my go to spot for some local BBQ in the Milton area. Parking lot is super small and you…read morecan also park in the rear. I was seated right away. I had sweet tea to drink to give me a little jolt of energy. I also enjoy their variety of sauces here. I ordered the Beef Brisket platter with 2 sides. I been craving some Brunswick Stew for some time now. Food got here a speedy time. The brisket was tender and tasty. I wish it was alittle more thick with some crust on it, but that's okay. The Brunswick stew had way too much meat in it and not enough vegetables. I usually don't complain about too much meat but the stew wasn't what I expected. Service here is fast and great. I highly recommend this bbq spot if you're in the area.

Wanted to give this place a try after hearing so much about the wings! In terms of the food: wings…read morewere as advertised - sauce is excellent and mild-medium spicy, and the chicken itself is tender with a subtle smoky flavour. Unfortunately the rest of the food was fairly mediocre, the meats came out luke-warm, grey, and chewy, and needed a lot of sauce to hide that. Needed a good sauce and re-bake to eat again. Fries were quite solid and very potato-ey although quite oily. Mac and cheese were fine for the kind of food. Food definitely not bad bad, and with how the wings are we could just chalk this up to an off night. Parking is quite small - if it gets busy then there's extra parking by the fire station next door, but the lot being small makes it hard for two cars to go wide (especially some of the giant trucks but that's another story). Friday night when we came there was a live singer! Good family environment restaurant but can get a little loud. Very casual vibe inside. Service really excellent for a busy night, servers and runners were prompt and very attentive. Waitstaff were very very nice and observant overall and took care of everything quite well.
