    Spicy tenders. Good amount for $9.00!

    Pretty dang good food! Shame it's not busy at all. Tasty and a decent price! I had the spicy tenders that came with fries for $9.00.

    Steak Tacos
    Renne J.

    I completed and order with Apollo Pelion via Door Dash. My order was delivered quickly. I ordered 3 steak tacos with a corn tortilla. I could only eat one because I was sampling e everything else. I ordered fries thinking it was a small order. These fries were delicious and seasoned the way I like them. No ketchup needed. The cole slaw and rice were delicious as well. I absolutely loved the caramel churros with caramel filling inside. I honestly think I ordered to much food but never the less, I enjoyed every bit of this meal. This was my lunch meal so I had enough to eat for dinner as well. For those who had a bad experience, give them another try. I can say that meals are very flavorful, spicy and may be a bit on the salty side for me, but overall this was a filling meal.

    1/4 Chicken meal.
    Kim N.

    This restaurant advertised an ad on Instagram: "Get a free chicken sandwich with the purchase of any meal." My man and I went at 11AM and ordered two 1/4 Chicken meals. We reassured with the cashier that the meals come with free chicken sandwiches; she said "yes". After we drove up to pay and received our food, we wanted clarification that it was two sandwiches and not one. But then she said "No, only one." We were confused because we followed what the Instagram ad said and were expecting two sandwiches. She explained, "One chicken sandwich no matter how many meals you order." We were even more confused because the ad didn't disclose that. We were disappointed, especially since we had high hopes for this new chicken restaurant. The presentation is okay, but once you open it, the chicken is so small. Looks more like a kid's meal to be honest. But that's kind of expected for a $7 meal, however the taste was below average at best. I would have gotten more for my money at Chipotle. If you do a promotion on social media to gain consumers, at least know what your promos say and honor it to the customers. All in all, the experience was pretty bad, and we probably won't be returning.

    My fourth time here and I always forget how much food they give you!! This chicken is soooo yummy!…read moreWe tried some diff things today: Fried shrimp, onion rings and the mochi donuts! All good. Onion rings could use a little salt and pepper but we just fine dipped in the dumpling sauce! Service is always good and fast! They are so nice! You have TVs on to watch stuff and some nice Korean music playing. I highly recommend!

    The person behind the counter was ok. Not too friendly which is fine but also I think he was doing…read morethe table service and counter service. The Ramen came out in a togo container which i was surprised by had very little garnish no scallions and the noodles weren't even cooked all the way sadly, i know its ramen and takes only a few minutes to cook but that was a little sad, the broth was the saving grace, cause it was spicy, salty and had a lot of flavor. I really wanted to like everything, the chicken was perfect but the seasonings were not. I got fried chicken breast with cheese powder and I have never gotten it before so I wasn't prepared for it to taste like straight sugar. I also got the soy garlic sauce and no soy or garlic flavor was apparent to me which I love it was a light almost white sticky sauce on it. So I dont know of someone put the wrong sauce? I have had soy garlic sauce at other korean chicken places and its a thinner consistency more garlic and soy forward flavor and it usually brown. Maybe their version just doesnt have that. Not really hitting the spot. Also I guess I was supposed to get a salad with my meal but it was just shredded cabbage. The pictures show a green salad that other people have posted. Sadly disappointed on that note. The dressing was sweet too. The corn salad was sweet and cabbage filled. The onion mayo had a whisper of onion flavor and again I dont know if that is how its supposed to be. On last thing the spicy mayo had absolutely ZERO SPICE. Non existent spice spicy mayo made me sad. So if you like pink mayo, get that one. The cubed pickled daikon was the only thing that wasn't sweet and it was a nice relief from all the sugar. Maybe I should have gotten the spice chicken batter instead of the original. I want to try it again and approach it from a different angle on the menu.The chicken was perfectly fried moist and crispy. I really hope to update this with a different experience some time. It was a nice cozy little place near hmart.

    What a find! This is a no frills place, except for the food. I went with the Fried Chicken chunks…read morewith the Soy Ginger sauce. The breading on the chicken was great. The flavor, the crunch were both great and the sauce was super tasty! I also got the fried Brussels Sprouts, which on their own were great, but I dumped the last bit of them into the Soy Ginger sauce after I finished the chicken and that took it to another level! My wife got the Build Your Own Turkey Burger. It was pretty plain (picked and mustard) but she raved about the flavor. She said it was juicy and had great flavor. The team working the night we were there were great, super helpful and friendly.

    Needed a quick dinner fill me up and the basic stuff wasn't cutting it and I needed something…read morefilling and rather dirty. I was feeling a burger and out of all the places in Duluth/Norcross, nothing outside of fast food was open or non-existent and I'm not driving past Beaver Ruin to find something and nor am I going further than Duluth Hwy. So I needed something and thankfully, Yelp was the resource I needed. I typed in "burgers" in Duluth and Craft Burger by Shane popped up and to my surprise, the Duluth location is the ONLY one that is open till 3am six days a week and since I've never been, I needed to try it and since I was feeling burgers, this option was perfect! Upon arriving at the place, it's near the Soel La Boel Korean restaurant off Old Norcross and Pleasant Hill across from the Toyota Dealership. When walking in, it's a corner joint with a very spacious interior that's clean, well lit, and offers roughly 50 seats. To order, it's kiosk based but their menu is extensive so you might need to do your homework first before coming in or order ahead. The only service they offer is from kitchen to table but you bus your own stuff which seems to be the model for these fast sit down places. Now for the food. The burgers are thick 6 oz patties. Can't really tell if they're seasoned as it seems like the cheese, your veggies, and whatever sauce you asked for seems to carry the flavor and not the burger patties themselves. But the patties are thick boys and you definitely get hit with strong beefy flavors. Think old school Big Mac in terms of size but with better quality ingredients. The bun is lightly toasted that ensures your burger holds it's shape and for the most part, it's a flavorful bun as well.. I opted for the build your own burger which starts at $12 then w/ the extra patty is another $4 and then their signature custom items are a la carte and you add one item as you go along from fried egg to grilled mushrooms etc. They offer fries and a drink meal for an addition $6. I love their fries! Long, crispy, yet you can taste the potatoes! Delicious fries and they offer other flavors of fries like truffle or buffalo flavors. When I compiled my items between the additional patty and the meal deal, I was already was looking at a $21 burger meal with is comparable to some of their competitors like Burger Fi or Burger 21 which all share the same concept but Burger by Shane seems to have better ingredients. All in all, this place is fantastic! Highly recommend Craft Burger by Shane, especially when it's after midnight and you need a quick fix for a burger!

    Yesterday we had to work on location in peachtree corners so my boss asked me to find a place we…read morecould order out from for dinner. We needed to feed 150 people and they wanted wings. So I found this place less than a mile away. I called them around 1pm and asked for an order for pick up by 8:30pm. We ordered 300 dry lemon pepper wings, 200 mild wings, 150 fried shrimp, a whole pan of fries and a whole pan of rice. We came in and paid after we ordered and everything was ready by the time my boss went back to pick up the food. I just want to say the woman who took the order was very pleasant and my boss was very happy with the service when she went to pick up the place. The facility was very clean and the food was fresh. They even gave us a good discount for such a big order. All the food was well seasoned and the wings were a nice, big and crispy. The shrimp was fried perfectly and didn't have a greasy after taste in fact the tasted buttery and delicious. The rice was fresh and tasty and they even gave us a big tray of celery and all the condiments we could handle. My boss ordered a Turkey burger while she waited for everything to be boxed up which she thought was spot on as well. Sometimes when we put in big orders at other places they give us teeny tiny wings and hardly ever give us free veggies or a discounted rate so I really enjoyed this interaction and if we are ever back in the area we will definitely order again.

    Good wings & things. From frozen, the fried okra is spot on…read more Good fried rice. Great Philly cheese.b
