    A few things to note: 1. If you want a table with kBBQ grill, ASK for it, but plan for all of not most of your party to order kBBQ. 2. The service isn't bad, it's just different. 3. They give great banchan (Korean side dishes) and will refill as you ask. 4. If you want kBBQ, do not order just one dish. Order at least 2 or they'll get annoyed with you. Instead you can order most of the stuff on the kBBQ menu but already cooked. If you do that, the meat comes with lettuce leaves and a few sauces (one peanuty sauce and another sort of sweet chile sauce), which you can wrap the meat in. Most of the negative reviews about this place are because of the service, and I think it's mostly because Americans aren't used to service from other cultures. There are certain expectations for how much to order/eat, and an understanding that waiters are here to feed you and that's it, in places like Korea, that aren't as common in America. The waiters were never rude, they were just to the point, unsmiling, serious, and of few words. We did hear from our waitress that some of the owners can be stingy, but she happily refilled drinks, banchan, and gave us extra kimchi to take home. Here's what I tried: -Bulgogi: 7/10 - It was good, just not the most flavorful. I've had better bulgogi, and it also wasn't piping hot. I also think the marinade could've been better, but it was bulgogi, it was good, and there was quite a bit of it. -kBBQ (precooked) Galbi: 9/10 - I adored their Galbi. It was hot, the special sauce on it was sweet, salty, and umami, and the meat itself was tender, well cooked, and had a bit of a chew to it. The meaty flavor really shined, and paired with the lettuce leaves, rice, and sauces, it was absolutely divine.

    What you need to know: 1. If you want Ginseng Chicken Soup, you must order it two hours in advance. 2. If you want the full BBQ experience, get a grill table, but if you do that, you have to order as many meat entrees as there are people in your party ($25-$27 each). 3. You may get a tiny lecture if you start eating the sides before your meat is ready. 4. Service is good. 5. Bulgogi dishes are delicious, duck is good.

    Bought one of everything on the menu.. you know when you try a new place and you want to try everything. Yeah, i did that as a single dine in eater. Lots of food. Everything was good no complaints. Least favorite item the pot stickers (Mandu). Had plenty for lunch the next day after eating heavily. Prices are fair. Atmosphere is good. Convenient location off 75.

    japchae, soondubu, and banchan

    i've been going to Tofu Village for years. their soondubu (spicy tofu soup) is amazing, one of the best in metro atlanta. japchae is another winner here. they have this great charcoal kbbq set, which brings an authentic "seoul" ambiance. the ladies are very nice and always willing to refill our banchans. the restaurant has ample seating, tables always clean, and a variety of customers dining in around the clock.

    I haven't had Korean in too long so my husband found this place for us to go on a date night. The restaurant is very nicely decorated and offers k-dramas on some of the TVs to watch. The food is very well flavored, fresh, and delicious. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Excellent Korean restaurant!

    Kimchi Jjigae

    Came to Tofu Village for the lunch portion of the Kimchi Jjigae ($11.99) and was a little bit disappointed. Something was a little off about the stew. Yes this is a subject comment, but it just didn't hit the spot. And on top of that they charge way to much for extra cup of rice. Sure miss the kimchi in Koreatown Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Food: 2 Service: 5 Dinning Experience: 5 Total: 12 of 15 / 80% /

    It sucks having to give this place a 1 star after all of this time because the food is good, but I can't deal with the poor customer service anymore. I just came to pick up my order not too long ago. When I arrived and gave my name, they stated that they accidentally gave my order to someone else that had the same first name as my last name. I understand mistakes happen so it sucked but I was completely understanding. They were going to quickly remake mine when the customer that accidentally took my order came back since he realized the mistake. They immediately tried to give this order back to me, but I expressed my concern about it being unsanitary since it was most likely opened already by the customer and not sure what else. The hostess proceeded to argue with me to try to convince me to just take the order when one of the staff came by and stated that they'll just remake it. I waited about 10 minutes and they gave me my order. I fully believe that they just waited that same period of time until they handed me the same order they accidentally gave away because the jjajjangmeyon I ordered was completely lukewarm at this point. I previously had a bad experience when I picked up an ordered a few weeks ago as well and just thought it was an off night so I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt. However, this one takes the cake. I don't intend on coming back even though I love the food there, but I seriously question their practice and service skills. Absolutely disappointing after all of the years I've been here.

    Great lunch with mom. It's what the doctor ordered on this chili winter day. The galbi was tasty and the tufu stew with kimchi was piping hot.Great service. Great experience overall.

    Kimchi soon Doo boo

    We ended up here because our normal Korean spot was too busy and we were hungry We'd been wanting to try it after seeing soupbelly post about it on Instagram! Definitely worth the trip. The servers were all so nice & checked on us regularly. The food was good and most of the plates were big enough to share. I had the kimchi soon Doo boo and my husband had chicken ka su Chicken was sooo crispy and sauce was thick & tasty. Really good with the little sliced cabbage I didn't get a pic of the banchan but lemme say those potatoes are lit and the fish cakes were so good! The soon Doo boo had plenty of beef, tofu & even an egg. It was flavorful and I got medium but I'll definitely take it to hot next time. Wasn't sure what their idea of spice was. They also have kbbq that isnt all you can eat but it smelled good! There's plenty of parking & seating. The place is huge inside

    Lunch!! Ain't leaving here hungry!!

    Are there private rooms for Karaoke here? Was it a good experience?

    Yes, but they're in the next unit of the storefront, so they're not as obvious from the restaurant lobby. Ask at the host counter and they'll set you up. We always have a great time!

I've called twice in the last two weeks, and I have still not been refunded. They sent me a refund receipt at one point, but they apparently refunded the wrong card. I've always enjoyed the food here, but the management is just awful. They made a mistake, took over $35 from me, did not apologize, and did not follow-through as promised.
