My family and I had a great lunch at Kitchen 121. A very intimate space that is quiet and good for smaller groups. We came in the afternoon, so parking wasn't an issue. The staff was a bit reserved but they did warm up as our visit progressed. We ordered a few items from the menu, including a California Roll, Double Shrimp Tempura Roll, Rainbow Roll, Oriental Soy Garlic Chicken, Grilled Shrimp Hot Bowl, and the Grilled Bulgogi Hot Bowl. Everything was fantastic; hot, flavorful, and fresh. Even the beverages were refreshing. The Lemonade was solid. The Peach Green Tea was new to my taste buds, and I really enjoyed it. I especially liked the Virgin Mojito, really nicely balanced and this would be my go-to drink for sure! If you're in the area, stop by and try it for yourself. I would absolutely return. read more

Upon entering Kitchen 121, you order and pay first at the register. There's also a self-serve water station and utensils, which keeps things simple and convenient. This is a Korean-infused style restaurant with a relaxed, chill atmosphere that makes it easy to sit down and enjoy your meal. The serving sizes were generous easily enough to share between two or even three people. Overall, the food tasted really good and the service was excellent. Would definitely come back! read more

KITCHEN 121 - Grilled Bulgogi Salad and spicy Redpepper Chicken Platter (Serves 2-3) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

My friends and I came here because we were craving sushi, and it really hit! I love that sauces are self serve because I absolutely love dousing my sushi with spicy mayo and eel sauce. The rolls were quite hefty, and I felt really full. I loved their fried dumplings and seaweed salad as well, and everything is really fairly priced. I highly recommend!! read more

Had the Korean beef Bulgogi, it was fantastic. Need more places like this around GEORGIA. Will definitely return if I am back in this area again! read more

This location is in a strip mall and can be hard to find if using the map on a phone -mine and my friends brought us in the back into an industrial area. I thought I was in the wrong place but just follow it around! The food is pretty good - I had the bulgogi stir fry and my friend had the chicken. Again both very tasty, especially the proteins I thought were cooked well. Good cuts that were not too fatty and not overdone and dry. The space is very small, I might describe it as a bit tight. I would say that it is not a place with a lot of privacy. The service was fine - you walk in and go to the counter to place your order and they bring it to you when it's ready. It's pretty easy to figure out but no one offered to assist me or anything on my first visit. I would say great lunch spot, give it a shot. read more

Great service and friendly staff. I love the semi private and divided seating arrangements. Fresh food and plants give a nature environment; great atmosphere. Feels like I'm eating outside but with the AC on. I got the shrimp bow and my friend got the salmon bowl. We both agreed it was delicious. This is self serve, grab your own utensils, water, and sauce station. You can also grab your own togo containers, no need to ask. Great for quick lunch. Definitely will be back. read more

A nice spot with some very tasty food. The "dining room" was much smaller than I expected but it had a nice, relaxed vibe (with Sailor Moon playing in the background) We ordered the Oriental Garlic Chicken which was AMAZING! Had the perfect crunch but juicy texture and the sauce was everything! We also tried the Bulgolgi bowl which if you love a runny egg, pretty good. If not ask for scrambled. I believe my sister had the fried shrimp bowl which was also amazingly juicy and crispy at the same time. Add Eel sauce to any of this and it takes it to the next level! Lastly my sushi loving son ordered the rainbow roll which was decent. Fish definitely tasted fresh but sauce was needed to add flavor. Pieces (6 not 8, I believe) were also huge which could be a good or bad thing depending on who you ask. All in all a spot I'd recommend. read more

KITCHEN 121 is an Asian fusion casual eatery that serves sushi, Korean fried chicken, and more. It is rather small inside, so dining is a tight squeeze but I think there is one table outside. Because space is limited, the ambiance can feel either quiet or loud depending on the crowd inside. The service was efficient and friendly. We got the Yummy Yummy Roll and Double Shrimp Tempura Roll which were their special rolls. The rolls were massive! I could have gotten half of it and been satisfied, but they did cost $16 so I guess it is good that the rolls were big. The Double Shrimp Tempura Roll came with a small popcorn chicken on top of each roll which was interesting. The popcorn chicken tasted good and while I thought my roll was tasty, especially with the spicy mayonnaise drizzled on it, there was a lot going on in terms of what was in and on it. I would like to come back and try their Korean fried chicken! I would probably give this place a 3.75/5 if I could. I think people who like Asian fusion will enjoy the food here. read more

Great food and wonderful service! We got the salmon bowl with extra protein and the udon soup, as well as the pork dumplings for an appetizer. Presentation on the dumplings were cute and they come with the quintessential sweet/savory sauce to dip in. Udon soup was great and a classic, with two pieces of shrimp tempura. Salmon bowl came with seasoned rice, salmon of course, and a separate bowl of assorted veg (lettuce, pickled radish, red onion, and cucumber). my partner said that there was like a lemony/citrusy dressing/sauce on the veggies and said he wished he had more lemon to squeeze into his bowl. Overall great food, but the price of extra protein was a bit steep for the amount of extra salmon we got. read more

The people working there were polite and nice. It's a nice place with almost a cafe aesthetic. I got the combination bowl and it was so good! I was starving so I ate a bit before taking a picture of how much they filled the bowl and how it still looked presentable. I'd love to come back here again! read more

Thanks Yelp and Instagram for steering us here - a bit of a drive and happy it was worth the journey, lol. Appreciated the menu variety - we ordered different dishes and shared ... two people in our party loved the food so much they ordered more for dinner! They have Korean fried chicken, sushi rolls and bowls, and grilled meat bowls w/ rice or Udon noodles - all very good, and portions are great. Order at the front, and food is made-to-order. Owner is Korean and came to our table - super nice and asked for our feedback. ORIENTAL SOY GARLIC CHICKEN - $17 All their KFC use white meat - surprisingly their white meat is very moist ... honestly almost tasted like thigh meat to me. I'd love to try their lemon pepper or sweet onion chicken next time. DOUBLE SHRIMP TEMPURA ROLL - $16 Shrimp tempura, crab meat, avocado, cucumber, popcorn shrimp, tempura flakes, honey mayo, spicy mayo, and eel sauce. Loved all the texture activity going on in that roll - very good! TUNA SUSHI BOWL - $13 Pretty much a poke bowl - the fish tasted yummy and all the veggies were very fresh. I'd love to try the salmon sushi bowl next time. STIR FRIED UDON WITH GRILLED SALMON - $17 This was probably the group favorite - very good and the udon had the perfect chew. Great comfort food. I'd order this again. GRILLED BULGOGI HOT BOWL - $16 Meat was very flavorful, and came with side of pickled veggies on top of salad. MISO SOUP We also got a taste of their miso soup - perfecto! Overall great spot to check out if you're in the Old Peachtree Rd area - or maybe after shopping at Assi Korean supermarket nearby. read more

Wow, wow, wow! The moment I walked in, the space felt cozy, trendy, and perfectly aesthetic. I noticed they've earned a Michelin star, so I knew I had to give it a try. I ordered the 121 Yummy Yummy Roll, the Red Pepper Chicken, the Fried Pork Dumplings, and a Mango Lemonade. They also have a self-serve station for water and plates, which was super convenient. The food came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor--everything had a great crunch without being oily. It was pretty quiet when I visited, but I can imagine this spot gets busy on weekends. Overall, such a delicious experience! read more

Kitchen 121 is such a cute place. You order at the counter, and while there isn't traditional table service, they do bring the food out to you. Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. We started with the fried vegetable dumplings, which were tasty and perfectly crispy. The crispy Brussels sprouts were amazing! I had the stir-fried udon tofu bowl, which was full of flavor, and my husband really enjoyed his JB roll and the stir-fried udon bulgogi. Our friends were also very happy with their meals. Overall, a great spot with fantastic food. read more

Kitchen 121 has an amazing menu with delicious dishes! I personally had the pork dumplings and udon grilled chicken noodles, and I left with a full and happy stomach!! The restaurant is self serve, and next to the counter where you order there is a timer, on which if you hit 10:00 seconds exactly, you get free dumplings!! Overall an amazing place, would recommend 10/10! read more

One of my favorite restaurants in Georgia! The food and ambiance are perfect for a relaxed lunch or dinner out. The service is nice for a non-table service restaurant. You order your food at the counter and all of your plates and utensils are at another self serve counter. But the staff still keep an eye out for guests who need anything. The seating area is smaller but laid out well to give some areas of communal eating and other more secluded spots. The use of barriers helps break up the space well. And the food is flipping fantastic! Nothing I have had there was anything but delicious. From their sushi to their bowls. Their chicken in all it's varieties are all scrumptious. The two big things I recommend are their sweet onion chicken and their miso soup. If you don't like onions their lemon pepper chicken is very unique and another favorite of mine. While it may be something to be ignored elsewhere, do not skip their miso soup. It is way better than it has any right to be. read more

I ordered the fried pork dumplings, double shrimp tempura roll, and the crunch California roll. Fried pork dumplings and double shrimp tempura was just ok in my opinion. I don't like sweet sushi I prefer more savory sushi rolls. Crunch California rolls wasn't good at all way too sweet. Sorry I have had better sushi elsewhere read more

We visited the establishment as we were in the Duluth area for a convention. The prices were average due sushi, but service was not up to par (strike 1). The sushi roll we had was not really cold, which should have been my red flag (strike 2). The seating was very limited and cramped, and the manger in which one must serve themselves for plates, flatware, etc. was very off-putting. Honestly, with no hostess, waitress, and no one to check on the patrons, why are we tipping up front? Strike 3 for me was the case of food poisoning that I am still suffering from - days later. *** I would not return to this establishment or recommend. *** read more

We just left this restaurant and everything was delicious. We went because my 5 year old Grandson requested this for his birthday. The udon noodle soup has such great umami.

When I got there to my surprise it was a self serve restaurant it was my first time at a place like this and my experience was amazing, you order at the cashier and then you choose a place to sit and they bring the food out to you. You could grab plates and sauces and water on the side. The service was exceptionally fast and the owner was the sweetest Korean lady!!! Great place highly recommend! The food was amazing, great portions for the price and amazing flavor!!! The store looks great!! The ambiance was amazing. read more

I care more about food than service, so i'm bumping it up to 4 instead of 3 for that reason. TL;DR: Food was good, very popular for take out, but the dining area could use a good deep clean and redecorating. Arrival: The parking lot is a bit small, but since this place doesn't get too busy for dine in during lunch, it shouldn't be a big issue. They have a spot right in front for pick up orders. The restaurant opens at 11? but the kitchen opens at 11:30? It's a bit confusing. Menu: I came here because i wanted sushi and it had good reviews. I knew i wanted the poke bowl but they also have a selection of other offerings if that's not what you want. Everything felt well priced but the chicken doesn't come with rice which is kinda annoying. Service: Order at the counter and they bring the food to you. Utensils and condiments on the shelf to the left of the counter. A small group of people ordered before us and after they sat down we got up to order at the counter (we were initially seated because we got there before 1130). After my friend started to order, the cashier interrupted her and said he had to go put in the order for the group ahead. Why didn't he that before starting to take her order? The interaction with the cashier was a bit odd though not horrible. Ambiance: This is not a spot where you'd take someone if you were trying to impress them. The interior is in desperate need of an update and cleaning. There is a small portable fan on the floor next to the door circulating air, there are lightweight (honestly cheap-looking) partitions between some beautiful big wood tables. There are extension cords visible all over and it just doesn't feel clean and grand. Almost all the seats are also directly under AC units that were making us very cold we had to walk a circle to see where we could sit to even survive. Food: My group ordered a combo poke bowl, salmon poke bowl, crunch California roll, 2x baked salmon bowl, red pepper fried chicken. Honestly, all the food was amazing and we really enjoyed it. The baked salmon roll comes with 8 pieces but they were on the smaller side, none the less they tasted fresh and flavors worked well together. The poke bowls were very big and like other reviews said were mostly veggies and small portions of fish. The only issue here is that i asked for the pickled radishes on the side and he took the time to note it, but it did not show up that way. So if you have any allergies, just be very very careful. The fried chicken was crispy and the sauce was good and got spicier as leftovers, and it was a huge portion. As mentioned earlier, as an asian restaurant, it's sad to see rice being an extra charge and $2 for a small bowl is a bit annoying. Overall: I think we'll do take out in moving forward as the food was good but the restaurant itself was nothing to be missed. read more

This is becoming my favorite place for sushi in GA. Portions are official and the taste and flavors are deeply layered. Their special eel roll is to die for. Excellent miso soup and seaweed salad as well but the sushi is top notch and the star of the show. It's not really a service restaurant but the vibe and ambiance make it feel like home. The tvs are playing cartoons and a variety of options. If I lived closer I would be here often. I have to try the fresh chicken as well one day. It's on the list for sure. read more

KITCHEN 121 - 121 Special Eel Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Stopped by for lunch and got lovely service at the counter. It's a self service type of place so we ordered at the counter and the food was brought to us. We tried this soy garlic chicken (boneless), combo sushi bowl, and a baked salmon roll. The soy garlic had good flavor and the chicken was tender. We weren't expecting boneless but it was tasty. It would have helped to have a side or something but the sides were sold separately. Chicken was 16. The combo sushi bowl was 13 with salmon and tuna. My only issue with it was that it had a smaller serving of protein than most poke bowls but they put more veggies instead. If you like the pickled veggies and seaweed salad, you may not mind but I'm used to seeing more protein. It was beautifully assembled with a light refreshing soy sauce like sauce. It paired well with the chicken since eating just fried chicken is kind of rough. The baked salmon roll was fair--nothing noteworthy for $10. Overall, we had a good casual experience and the food was pretty good! read more

Nice assortment of food and good place to take kids. Good udon for kids, while $15 and little to no veggies (good for picky kids) had 2 shrimp tempura and some table mushrooms. Fried chicken was quite tasty and rainbow roll was pretty good and not pricey at $11. All in all. Good experience and would drop in with kids again! read more

Our family of 5 came here for dinner for the first time. Inside is well decorated. You order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. You get your own utensils and water. Food came out pretty quickly. Very impressed with the presentation of the food. Food tasted great and portion size was good. Since I eat low carb, it's not easy to find a Korean place that has much to offer with low carb. But the Bulgogi salad was perfect for me. Only complaint here is the door to the restroom keeps slamming. The door needs to be replaced with something that does not slam when it closes. Overall, great food at reasonable prices in a nice environment. Glad we came. read more
