​This place is famous for its Korean BBQ, but you absolutely cannot ignore the sushi! The value here is shocking! ​The Sushi Combo Set is only $34.99! We ordered the two-person set plus a few extra rolls, and the portions were so incredibly huge that we couldn't finish it all. We ended up taking leftovers home to enjoy later. ​ The sushi quality is top notch fresh tuna, salmon, and beautiful specialty rolls. My daughter's eyes lit up she was so satisfied! Seeing her happy made the experience even better. ​We chose this restaurant after Sunday service, and it turned out to be the perfect spot. It's great to know they offer private rooms for a more intimate dining experience, too. ​I genuinely believe you'll have an excellent time here no matter when you go. They nail the flavor, portion size, and price. I highly, highly recommend it! Go check it out!

What a wonderful experience at this beautifully decorated restaurant. If you are in Swanee or Duluth areas in Georgia and want to experience a top notch Korean cuisine at a different level, go here. Their service was exceptional as well even during the busiest night.

Quite an intersting place with really huge menu encompassing Korean, Japanese, and Chinese among which Korean and Japanese being much more comprehensive. The extent of menu reminds me of the comprehensive menu at Cheese Cake Factory. Lol. Good food. A bit overpriced, I think, though as the portion of some items were rather meager. Very nice cosy and private interior with many sitting areas within enclosed rooms! Quite a large place which may contribute to very slow service with the communication phone in the room not being answered, prompting one of us to keep going out to find a server to help us after several minutes of trying each time. When they did finally come, they were courteous and responsive.

Fresh food, clean and welcoming atmosphere, friendly and kind staff. Food was good. Not a big fan of huge plate and rice bowls etc. Felt a bit off

Very nice Korean restaurant that serves up all the Korean classic food. We enjoyed the overall experience and food. Presentation was very nice but some items could have tasted better. Throughly enjoyed the meal and we walked away full.

We ordered the Sambap, and the soybean paste (강된장) was literally sour. We even wondered if they had put fermented kimchi in it because of the acidity. The server took it back to the kitchen without explanation and didn’t return until we were nearly done with our meal. The replacement they brought out tasted completely normal, which makes me question whether we had been served spoiled food the first time. As for service—pretty much nonexistent. I was hoping things would have improved since my last visit, especially on a weekday night, but no. Not once did any server check on our table on their own. During my previous visit, we were seated and left without water for 20 minutes, and even though we kept pressing the service bell, we were ignored. When the server finally came, I said, “Wow, you guys must be so busy—we’ve been sitting here unattended for 20 minutes.” She snarkily replied, “Well yeah, it’s dinnertime. You should’ve come at a different time then.” Seriously? 밥때가 됐으니까 밥 먹으러 식당을 가는 건데, 안 바쁠 때 오라고요? Completely rude. I will not be returning or recommending this place to anyone. Here’s my honest two cents for this sad excuse of a restaurant: save your hard-earned money and go elsewhere.

Inside was nicely decorated and like the option for private rooms for large parties. However, we felt the staff was disorganized and did not meet our needs. I had to get up to get my own refill for a drink. We were ghosted when it was time to pay the bill and then we also had to get up and all pay at the counter. It felt like a sit-down takeout place rather than a dine-in restaurant experience. To be fair our party was big sized and you may have another experience but still no exception for the price you pay at this restaurant. Other than that, the food was terrible. The food has a lot of potential but I had to send back the combination fried rice.

We come here and enjoy the private rooms. We get the 2 person bbq it came with lots of sides and the meat selection was good. Our servers are always pleasant & very attentive to us

This was a major disappointment! I wanted to experience what all the hype was and come to find out it's way overrated! Service was extremely poor and the food was way too salty! We had a party where they added gratuity which was fine but what was not fine was they staring at us like we did something wrong. If the tip wasn't satisfactory then a mandatory gratuity shouldn't be added. We didn't get ANY refills on water throughout the stay, they said that they ran out of rice, and the sashimi didn't taste very well where someone could get sick. No worries, we are definitely NOT coming back.

Delicious. We got the meal for 2. We got the Crunchy Spicy Tuna Roll and Orange Roll. I got 2 corn cheese because it's sooooo good. You can grab an icecream on the way out. The service was amazing. Love our server! Beautiful place. Loved having a private room. Would definitely come back.

The best rolls at the best price! Plus all sushi comes with unlimited side dishes. We have been going recently and have loved it. If you haven't tried it recently, you should. Great value, service is good and food is fresh! Give it a try!! Summer special is 30% off all rolls!

My mom and I stopped here for dinner. We had the squid ssam bap (various leaf wraps). The food was excellent and was more than enough for the two of us. They do have a lot more to offer on their menu as well. However, the waiters were not attentive to our needs at all. From the moment we walked in, we had to wait for several minutes for someone to seat us. We also had to press the call button multiple times before someone came to help. All in all, food was great, but service could use a lot more work.

Had a family dinner here. There was 10 of us. Food was good. Not the best, not the worst. Price on higher side compared to similar joints in Duluth. Main complaint is service. In the beginning it was so rushed like food kept coming with no time to finish anything. Like we were shoveling food in just to clear space. For those who know how Korean sushi/sashimi platters are generally served, after the main sushi/sashimi, they usually serve a stew and a roe rice dish. It took more than 40 minutes between the main sushi/sashimi and these dishes to come out. This was 40 minutes from when we asked them for this. We ended up leaving without eating it and asked them to pack it. Food good, price high, service horrible.

The beef bulgogi special combo was amazing. It came with so much food! Four pieces of sushi, lots of tender, marinated beef, tempura sweet potato, shrimp, and a pork dumpling plus fried rice, fresh fruit, and all the side dishes -- spicy kimchi, pickled veggies, a fruit salad, and a squid salad. You get tons of food for a fair price. The service was fast and the food was super fresh. We did a to go order for the office so I didn't get to experience the dine-in atmosphere but I most definitely will be back to try the Korean BBQ amongst other things.

Arirang-K is about a 40-minute drive from us, but my partner insisted that we check it out due to positive reviews from his acquaintances. So we made the long trip to the restaurant on a Saturday. We were seated as soon as we arrived and were one of the few diners there for lunch. The place was spacious and clean, and it was cool to see a robot delivering food to each table. The menu had dozens of options, making it difficult for me to choose an entree. I was tempted to order sushi but ultimately went with the Boiled Braised Black Cod Stew. We received six complimentary side dishes, including a bowl of cold kimchi soup that was seriously amazing! It was salty but sweet and tasted heavenly. The robot delivered our food in less than 20 minutes. My dish was rich in flavor, but the cod had too many bones. I'm unsure if I'd order the Boiled Braised Black Cod Stew again, but I know I'll return to Arirang-K!

Supervising woman was very rude when I was adding some side dishes into my togo box. Spent lots there but their attitude ruined our family dining experience. Never going there again. They don't care about customers.

Arirang is located off McGinnis Ferry and is one of the only KBBQ joints in this area. The interior is quite frankly amazing and you usually get your own private room. The servers are nice but they don't seem to have a button to call the staff. Purely food based review: 6 Piece Tuna Sushi + Ramen: Decent combo if you're craving a bit of both. The ramen is fancy instant ramen with some beef pieces. The tuna was fresh but a little too much rice to my liking. Beef KBBQ (2 Person): Enough to feed a family of 4 as our main entree. Every piece of meat ranged from decent to pretty good. You get the usual sides but note it's not unlimited. Bulgolgi Pancake - Big serving, a little burnt but was decent as a shared appetizer. Dragon Roll - One of the more stuffed rolls, it was decent but nothing too special to write home about. Korean Fish Soup - It was a backup option as they didn't have grilled eel. It was ok, simple broth and white fish. Oysters - Came in a big set of 5. Personally, this was my least favorite dish, it didn't taste as fresh and was super watery. Ultimately their menu is vast but some of the stuff we wanted wasn't offered nor recommended by the servers. We had to reorder three times. Price-wise is also on the higher side. Unless you're coming for lunch specials or want a private room dinner, I wouldn't come here regularly.

Pick up Sushi/Sashimi deluxe and it looks really small for $69.99. What has been changed? It was $49.99 before but it must be better than before. You must change the online price! the sushi/sashimi wasn't fresh, it looks like it was over a couple of days,

Arirang-K is a very busy and popular lunch spot. The hostess was multi-tasking so it took a few minutes before my friend and I were seated. My friend had the beef bulgogi and really enjoyed the flavors. I had the rocketman sushi roll and presentation and taste was great. The ambience can get loud as it is a large, open restaurant with high ceilings. They have the robot waiters here which is pretty cool but the actual wait staff is rather slow and dry in the service department. Don't expect a sugary sweet reception here. We had to wait for quite sometime to receive the check and we were unsure if we go to the stand to checkout as it wasn't explained to us.

This is my second time coming to this Korean restaurant. Food is always fresh and delicious. The side dishes are also high quality. I would definitely recommend trying the donkatsu. The portion size is huge and it comes with a gravy boat of sauce. I was quite impressed by its presentation and taste. The only downside for this restaurant would be slow service. My family came around 4:00 so we assumed slow service was due to most waiters being on break. Finally, they have free soft serve ice-cream! A great way to wrap up a heavy and filling meal.

My wife and I have lived in the northern OTP for 8 years now, and we've hit a lot of the Korean places that we can. For a while, Jang Su Jang was our jam, but it was crowded and slow. Then we liked MJ Korean tacos and Thank You Chicken because our young kids liked them, but both seem to have gone under. We like several Korean BBQ joints and have eaten at specialty tofu houses or cold noodle joints and snack shops, but none of them was consistently awesome like Arirang K has been! My wife typically orders stone bowl bibimbap, and I get the spicy beef rib cabbage stew, and we often get LA Kalbi to share. Our kids split a tempura udon with rice on the side. They like the ice cream machine and giant basket of lollipops as incentives to eat well, just in case the delicious food isn't incentive enough! But what really stands out to our kids? Robot bussing of food! That's why they call it "the robot restaurant"!

I have now been here for dinner with friends, and lunch with family. Both times were different in the sense of types of meal, but I'll speak to my overall experience. First- a huge space. Lots of private rooms for smaller groups, large events, and if you just want some privacy. Most of the rooms are set up for if you plan to grill. Very clean, organized, and certainly COVID friendly if you don't want to be in a main area with people you don't know. Their lunch special (sushi and sashimi) for $25 is a great price. High quality food, plated beautifully, and generous portions. I think a lot of people would say that's expensive for lunch, but this is a higher end lunch if you're going this route. For our small dinner group we went with a couple rolls, (so many different sushi rolls to choose from!) a Kim chee pancake (pa jun), combo A for Korean bbq, which is normally recommended for two but we split it three ways so we could try a bunch of different things. All super tasty. The banchon (side dishes) are simple but delicious. Today for lunch I split the sushi and sashimi combo plate and also had the tempura udon. With the banchon this was more like an early dinner for us. The tempura was executed perfectly, the udon was generous with the noodles and fish cakes. I'd have liked more broth but I do like saltiness and a lot of it. That being said, when it's busy I can see how service can be slow. But you know when coming that this is a huge space, and if you're eating BBQ, unless you know what you're doing they will help cook for you so you don't mess up your meal. If you're in a private room and you need something, knock the phone off the cradle (music plays, signaling to the team you need something). It's that simple. Otherwise, Korean restaurants aren't like your traditional meal out. Unless you need something, they don't bother you. It takes some adjusting; but it works better if you don't have someone asking you every couple minutes how it's going. Just eat, enjoy, and go. Not inexpensive to eat here but again this is a nice space, decorated beautifully and you're going to enjoy it. They offer free soft serve ice cream (I think it's for dinner only) so we struck out there. My three American friends were all pleased that they could get so many different types of dishes to eat. If you want to split a bunch of things it works out nicely! Support small businesses. I believe this used to be owned with Bogle Bogle next door but they sold that off to focus on this mainly. No photos. It was so good we dug right in. Sorry!

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!! Highly disappointing experience. I brought my father here for his birthday and I had let them know in advance but yet we were IGNORED. Michelle was our waiter and forgot our order, consistently trying to get her attention to be waited on, didn't bring out our soups/salads until the end and we had to wait over 30 minutes for our hot sushi rolls that came out cold. She left piles of dirty plates and did no pre-bussing. Plus, she included the tip with our bill to substitute for the bad service. The food was beyond mediocre, you'll be much happier trying one of the other local Korean restaurants.

I really enjoyed my visit to Arirang K in Johns Creek. I've been waiting for this place to open and glad I was able to make it out to lunch. Interior is nice and open. Loved the frames of little hanbok jackets (korean traditional outfit women wear displayed near the entrances of the private dining rooms. I love they have that option as well. Staff was incredibly helpful and kind. I was impressed that they gave generous banchan (korean side dishes) when during lunch and when ordering a lunch box combo. The banchan was tasty as well. The menu was filled with a variety of options including korean soups/stews to korean bbq to sushi. We ordered the lunch (bento box) combo and was pleased with the main protein portion size. You left full which was nice. You also got a soup and a salad with a lunch bento box combo. Nice. I'm looking forward to going back to try some of their other menu items especially the Korean BBQ. Hope this restaurant is well received in the area so they will be around. They are also located near Divine Coffee shop which makes for an after meal coffee stop.

This place has been closed, but we tried to eat at Bogle Bogle, but they close on Tuesdays, and we saw Arirang-K is back in business! The first thing we noticed was it was pretty packed in the main room. It took a really long time for anyone to even talk to us before seating us. The restaurant itself is amazing and huge. There's 20+ private rooms in the back, and it's super nice in there. But we ate in the main room since we weren't grilling, and I think for all those tables there was one server. And she didn't move very fast. Everything took super long - just 4 dishes to finish and our meal was a good Hour 45 minutes. We got the Dolsotbibimbap - mixed rice over stone, as well as Nabe Udon. The food itself was very good. I think the Dolsot is the exact same thing as Bogle Bogle (same owner of both restaurants) which was very good and just as expected. The Udon looked great, and the kids finished most of it, but there were a lot of veggies (which is great for adults). I understand with the situation they might understaff, so no big knock, I'm sure it will get better. All in all, I liked the restaurant and would come back!

My family and I went to Arirang for lunch and had a lovely time. The service is really quick, the interior is spacious, and the menu has several options for KBBQ meats and sushi rolls. We ordered off the lunch menu: I got an 8pc nigiri + udon combo, my mother ordered the salmon teriyaki bento box, and my dad got the shrimp teriyaki bento box. Prices range from about $14-16 -- not cheap for lunch in Johns Creek -- but the portion sizes are BIG. Each entree also comes with miso soup and ginger salad, so you'll leave full (and likely with leftovers)! I thought the nigiri was fresh, though I found it strange that they seasoned half of it with a sweet sauce that masks the flavor of the raw fish. The udon paired nicely as a warm dish!

I came here with family on a Friday night. I got impressed how big and clean this restaurant was. There were a lot of private rooms. In fact, there were very few customers in the big common room. Private room was really nice. They stocked up napkins, utensils, etc... in each room. We ordered family bbq and some sushi rolls. Food was very good. Portion was big. They had smokeless bbq. So it's the first time I left a Korean bbq place and still smelled civilized. They had robots delivering food. Server was very attentive and stayed to cook our meat perfectly. Restroom was the cleanest in all Korean place I have ever been. Finally , my kids got so happy to get complimentary ice cream. I will definitely come back

Please replace the hostess that works in the front. She is so mean and condescending! We walked in at 4pm on a Saturday with 6 people celebrating a bday and we were looking forward to try a new Korean restaurant. However the first impression of this place rubbed us the wrong way because of the hostess. She was snobbish and repeatedly asked us if we will be doing bbq or dining with her condescending tone. We had a reservation too! She kept staring us down like judging us. Once she determined we might be good enough to use one of their bbq room, she threw the menu down and she sat us down. We are not overly sensitive to behaviors of old Korean waitresses that work at Korean restaurants since we are used to it but this lady takes the cake! This place is NOT cheap too! And Im not about to drop $400 for dinner here again. I'd rather spend it else where with better service.

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of food and perfect service. Ordered Family Beef Dinned for four. It was a lot of perfectly cooked meets; salad was perfect and a lot of tasty appetizers. Plus, service was great and polite. We will come back soon.

As a native Korean-American coming from Ktown, Los Angeles, I would say that food in ATL is not up to par since we come from the land of the melting pot. However, I would have to say that the service, ambiance, and scale of Korean restaurants in ATL are by far above and beyond! Servers are actually FRIENDLY and courteous and you don't have to literally rub elbows with people. The best part is you get to sit in a private room without any prior reservations! Will most likely visiting here again since they have a huge VARIETY of selections in our place!

Update: Came back over and loved it even more this time. All silverware was individually wrapped which we loved. We sat outside on patio. They have very large umbrellas that keep you fully shaded. The freebies (edamame, kimchi, peanuts, soup) were a nice touch. The bartender wasn't there so I was bummed we couldn't get a cocktail but service was excellent. The ninja roll was delicious and the calamari was great. The seafood pancake was much larger than expected. Can't wait to go back.

Placed an online takeout order combo - sushi & beef miso ramen. We brought it home and ramen is already in the miso soup with beef instead of putting ramen and soup in separate container. By the time we brought it home for my daughter to eat, the ramen was soft and soggy and the salmon rolls were really small. Once again very disappointed with this restaurant. Even though we live very close to it, we go there very rarely because of their quality of food.

OK - Yelp put down my review cuz I was complaining about the imbeciles taking over two slots to park like some inbreds. It is the resto's responsibility to have their patrons enjoy their visit, and I believe it includes all the amenities including parking, ingress & egress, and crowd control. Oh well. Going back to their actual food & service review - good meat quality, good stone bowl rice, but no service when it gets crazy busy on the weekend nights and the waiting staffs will only come after your multiple call buttons, they will serve you sketchy by how old your group is (noticed this a multiple times, I'm not even that young (only the looks lol) but totally seen & felt it). Time to time the waiting staff will F up your expensive cuts of meat, throwing them on the cold grill waiting to heat up, cuz they are super busy and need to serve older groups who they'd think will tip better. Skip the Japanese offering here - tried their $300 combo option which didn't meet up the expectation at all.

So, I decided to give another chance and went back for lunch time. The lunch was very good. I ordered korean beef bone soup, and it was delicious. They served us many variety of banchan (variety of small dishes that are served before the main dish, such as kimchi) and they were all delicious. They offer variety of lunch meanie such as Bento box, poke, and traditional Korean soups. The waitress was so so sweet. She didn't speak English well, but always smiling and stopped by our table at least 3 times to check on us. Unfortunately their sushi was so-so last time, but their lunch was great. I will go back and try their BBQ next time!

I really like the food and its consistency here. The sides are always fresh tasting and one side dish will regularly change to keep things new. The reason for the update is the service. They need to train their employees better. Most are doing a good job but I don't see a standard across the board. If they're nice, it's b/c that's who they are. Sometimes you get a server who doesn't smile or greet particularly well. They are slow to meet your requests. They don't always come out to greet at the door. I think the host works on certain days b/c a few visits we just stood at the door and a server rushes to get us. Overall, it's a solid addition to the area since there aren't Korean options there but they need to do better in the service area.

Really really wanted to like this place. For one, it's close to my house. Two, great service from a very sweet server. Three, my daughter loved their miso soup. And four, my boyfriend liked their volcano roll. He's new to sushi, so this was a big step for him to even try it. Sadly, the best thing on the menu was the roll and their soup per my daughter. Despite nice ambiance and all, I was pretty disappointed. We ordered the chicken and salmon hibachi for us, and then I got the kids meal chicken with rice. The hibachi came with salads and miso soup. The salad wasn't good at all. The dressing was very thin, the lettuce was the iceberg type, and the flavor of the dressing was pretty non-existent. The miso was a hit with my daughter. The hibachi was terrible. The chicken and salmon were so overcooked it was difficult to eat. My boyfriend managed fine, because he's all about his protein, but I could barely get it down. The accompanying veggies were also sub par and overcooked, too. I was really disappointed. Also, the portion sizes were off. If you look at the kids size, it's pretty much the same size as the adult minus the salmon and $15! The shining star of the meal was the volcano roll. That was actually pretty good, but the roll wasn't tight enough and fell apart when I tried to pick up each piece. Oh, and I asked for wasabi and spicy mayo, and they are pretty stingy with giving those out. The waitress was very sweet, and I really wanted to love this place with it being so close to me. But the food just didn't make the cut. I wouldn't bother coming here again.

I couldn't wait for this place to open and it just did today. This place has to be the fanciest Korean restaurant, not just in the Atlanta area, but in the entire US. My son and I stopped for the lunch. He had chicken teriyaki bento box and I had the sushi combination platter. Both were excellent. They do have a lot more to offer on their menu, and for the decor they have, the price is very moderate. The waitress and the manager was very attentive to our needs. Very friendly for sure and a great service. It seems like their specialty is sushi as well as the Korean BBQ grilling on your table. I can't wait to sit in the private room they have, and see how the Korean galbi taste like. All in all, great 1st experience!

Gave this place two chances... Simply put, bad service, subpar food. For what they charge, you are getting ripped off big time. Our party was put into a room with floors not cleaned from the previous party. Floors were disgusting and sticky. Plenty of unoccupied rooms around and hey they thought it'd be best to put us in this room?? For a restaurant that's known as a sushi restaurant, you'd think they'd have more than one person working on making the sushi. Took forever to come out. The sushi that we ordered as appetizer came out after everyone had finished their entrees. To top it off, it wasn't even fresh. There was a thin film of grime on it and it definitely didn't smell right. My wife ordered a sashimi and ramen combo. The ramen was unmistakenly fast food ramen! For $25, you'd think they'd actually make real ramen with deep flavored broth! For what should've been a memorable dinner, my uncle's 80th birthday and the first big family outing since covid, it was memorable for the wrong reasons. There are plenty of good and great Korean restaurants in Atlanta suburbs. This one does not meet any standards of a good restaurant whatsoever. If you're hesitating between this place and literally any other place, pick the other place. This overpriced, unclean, subpar food restaurant should be a hard pass for everyone. Definitely never coming back here again.

All in all not a horrible experience. In full disclosure, I have only been to one other Korean BBQ place so I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. The place was really clean and very well decorated. The service was friendly although not all that informative. That was a letdown because as I said before I've only been to one other Korean BBQ place and didn't know exactly what everything was. When I inquired about certain items on the menu my waitress did not know the answer, she would have to go ask somebody. The sushi was very good. The dumplings were very good as well. All in all I would go back but I felt the prices were a little too high.

Great Korean food! Service is fast and efficient. Ambiance is also good. I have not been here for dinner but so far lunch has been excellent. My daughter loved that robot that delivers the food :)

Great food and service. The interior is by far the nicest restaurant I have seen. They did an incredible job.

Wait at waiting area for more than 5 minutes, hostess/waiters already saw us. Totally ignored without any kind of greeting. Like we are not exist.. if you don't want business, don't turn on your open sign.

We did not have a good first experience. It started with no one greeting us near the door. Odd, that the main dining area was completely empty of customers. Finally someone showed. They asked us if we wanted BBQ seating and yes that's what we came for. And she motioned forward, stopping soon after and said no BBQ tables available. We took a table in the main dining area and began to look at the menu. About 30% of the menu was self cook, but that was not an option since all the BBQ tables/rooms were apparently filled. Ultimately choosing other items, the Tempura Shrimp was so salty we couldn't finish that part of the mean. Then towards the end there was still no sight of the waitress, when we wanted to check out. Had to go to the register and make someone check us out. We had been waiting so long to try this very nice looking establishment, and on first (and will be our last) visit we found super bad service and not good food.

Food is ok. The server we had did not speak English too well and it could be cultural but she comes by very rude. Possibly better staff considering the price you are paying here.

This has made our sushi top 3. The restaurant is beautiful. I love the private rooms especially with Covid going on. We got seated and the servers could close us in. I was a little disappointed that they don't have chicken on the bbq menu because I don't and can't eat red meat. But the save was very quick. We had hot saki and it is so yummy. My husband has had the tuna and yellowtail carpaccio and loved them both. Even the kimchi, soup and sprouts that they bring to the table to go along with the meal are amazing. We've had 5 different sushi rolls. The Johns creek, spicy tuna, and 2 others I can't remember the name of but they were all great. It was so good we went back 2 days after our 1st visit. The service is also really great. I'm sure we'll be back again this week. Definitely a flavor stand out for this area for sure

OMG, my Chirashi Don was to die for!!! The quality and the variety of the sashimi were super impressive. I used to own a sushi restaurant and I can tell the difference in fish grades. I'm not giving a 5 star because their service quality needs improvement. A friend and I ate at their sushi bar a few times already, but hardly any server greeted or came by to check on us. The sushi chefs got us refills. Great sushi, but not so great service is what I experienced.

Variety & Tasty! -- These two are Arirang-K to me! I visited Arirang-K 5 times after its grand opening. Arirang K has various foods to please all customers. It's very best place to meet clients and family or friends because they carry various dishes. I ate traditional Korean food, Japanese food, Poke, lunch food and rolls. Every food tastes best. Also it has cocktail bar and I want to try this someday. Also it has separated BBQ room and I could meet my clients in this calm separated room. It was very helpful to talk w/ them. I can say this BBQ room is good for meeting w/client or my family members. Also Asian traditional lattice pattern door in this BBQ room is my #1 pick.

Very good portion size for the price. You get some ban Chan and miso soup. Also free ice cream. I would try the all you can eat optio. next time. They have improved and increased their menu choices such as having fresh fish and all you can eat option. The place As Always is pristine and immaculate. The staff is attentive.
