GOP CHANG ON FIRE

An authentic spot for Korean BBQ intestines and stomachs. The food was great, and the service was good too, though they can get pretty busy. It really feels like a place you’d find in Seoul rather than the U.S. I like it!

This place was great!!!! The gopchang and rib mead were delicious. I liked it so much that I ordered a 2nd serving of the gopchang. The banchan and kimchi fried rice was also delicious. The restaurant even gave me vibes of the restaurants in Korea. This place is not your typical Korean bbq and you’ll only find Koreans eating here! If you want to eat like a real Korean and try something new, then try this place!!!!!

Pretty decent Korean gop-chang restaurant.... Went there on Friday evening, there was some waiting, about 20 minutes which was my max, haha. However, it was worth the wait; the food was great and the service was outstanding. I think our waitress name was Ye-rim, she looked young but her grilling skills were excellent 👍, not to mention she was very prompt refilling our ban-chans. Meat portions seemed small compared to the pricing, but in this inflation age I cannot complain too much....especially the Korean food. Will definitely back here when I am in the area craving Gop-chang 😋.

The concept of Gopchang (곱창 - Intestine delicacy) might seem unusual to those unfamiliar with Korean cuisine, but it's a beloved delicacy in Korea, often enjoyed with Soju. We chose this restaurant to celebrate our one-year anniversary for our church's spiritual organization, making it a unique setting to discuss religion and God over a drink. We relished the various parts of the intestine delicacy; some were delightfully chewy, while others had intriguing flavors. It was fascinating to learn that intestines are rich in protein and low in cholesterol, making them a nutritious option for those needing extra energy. The service was exceptional, with the waitress explaining the best way to enjoy intestine delicacy and its potential benefits as she served us. Being there brought back fond memories of Korea, and we thoroughly savored every moment of our time at the restaurant.

I’ve had beef intestines in Korea before, and this place gave me the exact same feeling I had in Seoul. The food is delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!

I am surprised that It was really tasty. Highly recommend this place. But Gopchang is hard to fill you up, so fried rice or ramen noodle is a must. Also, they serve soup on the side, it is refillable. Me and my friend (2people) had Combo A ($40)+ Daechang ($15) + Kimchi fried rice ($4) +2 beers = $75 + tips.

I have always been a regular customer at Gop Chang On Fire 2. This is the first time ever I’ve been to the Suwanee because the Duluth location was packed so I drove to this location. I gotta say I absolutely love it here. The food is really good. I even love the service here too. I just love everything here at this location. I definitely come back here when I’m in the mood for gopchang again!

They have two locations and I normally go to the Suwanee location. I always order combo B and share together. The gopchang tastes very good, but only thing that I don't like is the sauce.

Finally got to try this place! I've bookmarked it for a while just never got the chance. Main reason for our visit yesterday was due to it is one of the very few restaurants that open later than normal (most restaurants close at 9PM these days). We came around 9.15 and the place is full. It smelled so good! Be prepared for your clothes, skin and hair to carry the yummy smell even after you leave the restaurant. We ordered the packet A, pig intestine, kimchi fried rice and white grape soju. The amount of food is just enough for my teenage son, my husband and I. We enjoyed everything except perhaps the gopchang (small intestine) itself. We do not enjoy the sandy/gritty texture. We LOVE the pig heart! They serve a unique banchan that I never had in other Korean restaurants around: chive kimchee. It is super delicious. Even my son that doesn't eat green couldn't stop eating it.

After hearing many good reviews and seeing long lines outside of this restaurant, I finally had the time to come here for dinner. I was worried that they might get busy fast, so I came a few minutes after they opened. As it was empty, I sat wherever and was immediately greeted. After much thought and consideration, my mom ordered for us (I'm the type to just not know what I'm eating in these cases). Unlike some Korean BBQ restaurants, the servers cook the meat for you. It did take longer than expected for it to be fully cooked, but it was definitely worth the wait. Rice was extra, so we split it. I would definitely come here again and try other menu items and bring more people with it. Highly recommend!!

Came here on a date night with hubby. We wanted to go somewhere the kids wouldn't be able to eat lol. We would feel guilty going to places we know they would "miss out" on. This is definitely more for brave foodies trying different type of food. Food was good, service was great, overall ambiance of street food in Korea was there. I would come back here again!

If you like organ meats or intestines this is a good spot to hit up! Good spot for a drink as well. Set B, although it says it's for 4 people, we ended up ordering an extra Daechang to fill us up. Service was great as they really took good care of us. They overheard one of our kids saying they wanted more tofu from the jji-gae and the waitress brought us a whole plate full. Ambiance is typical kbbq... little dark and Smokey but chill.

9.7/10 Being adventurous with cultural cuisine, I fully enjoyed Gop Chang on Fire. We ordered Combo B (4-person serving) of assorted beef intestines and stomach linings. They were marinated in a mildly spicy sauce. Pickled leeks, assorted side dishes, and salted sesame seed oil helped balance the spicy, oily beef intestines. After the main, we ordered the fried rice, which they lay out on top of the grill with wax paper. The rice came pre-mixed from the kitchen so it's ready to eat. The minimum order is for a 2-person serving. For the pairing, we order a bottle of Terra lager.

It was my first time coming here after my friends told me that this was one of their favorite gopchang spots. The prices have changed compared to the old menus that are on yelp so I was a bit surprised when we got there and saw the new menu. We ordered the Combo A which is normally for 3 people but I thought it was the perfect amount for my boyfriend and I. Along with our Combo, we ordered an extra 2 bowls of white rice and it also comes with a free soybean stew on the side. The side dishes included kimchi, green onion kimchi, and spicy beansprouts. Our server was super nice and attentive to our grill. He cooked it perfectly and placed it on the side for whenever it finished cooking. I loved the extra onions and potatoes that came with everything too.

I absolutely love a good Gopchang. A group of friends and I, we call ourselves the "Gopchang Gang," have been to about 5 different Gopchang places in the area. This place does it right every single time and IMO is best Gopchang around. The sides are a little slim as well as the variety on the menu but they are a Gopchang restaurant and this is what we are going for, so we can't complain.

This is personally my favorite gopchang restaurant in Georgia! The service is quick, side dishes are impeccable, and food is shef's kiss. I've been coming to this location year after year and the quality has always been excellent. The prices have been rising little by little, but that's expected. My most recent visit in February 2021 priced one serving of daechang and gopchang at $16.99. Depending on who I come with, I usually get 2-3 servings on average for two people. Kimchi fried rice at the end is always a must as well! You will definitely need a shower once u leave this place. The strong smell of barbecue will linger!

Highlight- brought a friend who's never tried korean bbq before, and it's not fair for me to write a full review, since this place is called "gopchang" on fire-- meaning intestines on fire (it doesnt make your intestines go on fire, don't worry), and I didn't order the gopchang, but the beef rib instead since my friend and I weren't game enough to eat intestines. I give this place a 3.5 for its beef- I will write a review update when I have tried their intestines some time. We ordered the beef rib- 17.99$ a person. You had to cook it yourself here and the beef quality definitely isn't the same quality as 9292, Breakers, 678, or even Iron Age. I am guessing this is not what they are famous for- things that are NOT Gop Chang. So if you come here, I recommend NOT ordering the meats and save that order for a place that primarily does meats like the other korean barbecues I mentioned. The meat as tougher quality and one of those where you had to watch carefully b/c it can be super tender one second and then tough as leather the next second. so that part, I don't quite like. The ban chan was a lot of scallions and chives in spicy sauce, radish to cleanse your palate, a spicy tofu soup which wasn't that spicy. Overall: Wait for me to try the Gopchang- until then, I don't recommend normal meats on this menu- clearly not their specialty.

The Original Gopchang On Fire. Which means, nothing really changes between this place and the Gopchang on Fire 2, it's both the same restaurant. GoF2 is just a cleaner looking place and it's a bit larger. The OG Gopchang on Fire is more tapas style and no private rooms for parties. You're in an open sprawl with all your dining neighbors. The food is the same as location 2, the prices are equally pricey as location 2, and the rules are the same, which means, if you go it alone, you need to order two entrees and that's $30+ right there. And that to me is just way too pricey for a single person to enjoy tasty organ meat and it is tasty!!!!! So much fatty goodness from the stomach and intestines as well as the amazing savory flavors of the side dishes that all compliments and cleanses your pallet. But again, the 3 stars is due to their rule of "must order 2 entrees" and each thing is $15 a pop. Another thing to note with location 1 (this location) is if it's busy, sign in because this place gets poppin!!!! So get there relatively early!

Gopchang on Fire is a one-of-a-kind restaurant in metro Atlanta. Gopchang refers to intestines and, in this case, cow intestines which are cooked pretty much Korean BBQ style on grills at every table. I'm generally not a fan of intestines. The kinds I've had often had an unpleasant smell or taste, but not here. The intestines here are actually quite delicious, among the best I've ever had. So, I'd set aside any preconceived notions about intestines and give this place a try. You'll probably be pleasantly surprised. This restaurant is located in the Assi shopping plaza on Old Peachtree Rd in Suwanee. If facing Assi, Gopchang will be to the left. This is a small, casual place, almost a hole in the wall, with seating for I guesstimate roughly 40-50 customers tops. There was about a 10-15 minute wait when we arrived for our 7pm Saturday night dinner. The food menu is simple (first four items are beef): Gop chang - small intestine - $12.99 Dae chang - large intestine - $12.99 Mak chang - upper lining of last stomach - $12.99 Tuek yang - upper lining of first stomach - $15.99 Beef rib meat - $19.99 Pig intestine - $12.99 Small intestine stir-fry - $12.99 Spicy small intestine soup - $29.99 (for 2 people) There are two combos. Both combos come with gop chang, dae chang, mak chang, and tuek yang. The difference between the two combos is one combo, Combo A, is designed for 3 people ($34.99) and the other, Combo B, is designed for 4 people ($44.99). They also have ramen and kimchi fried rice on the menu. Beverage-wise, they have beer, wine, and soju. Alcohol commonly accompanies gopchang meals. Two of us visited for dinner and ordered the gop chang, dae chang, and mak chang, all a la carte. We could've ordered Combo A, but were unsure of portion sizing (and probably should've asked). I still could've eaten after we finished our food, so I'm thinking Combo A probably would've worked for us even though there were just two of us. It was pretty obvious which organ was which. The gop chang was placed in the center of the grill. It was coiled up. The dae chang looked like kielbasa sausages, bigger than the gop chang of course. The mak chang looked like a flat, spongy blob. Also served was what I think were small slices of liver, but I could be wrong. On the edges of grill were slices of daikon radish, white onion, and sliced mushrooms. Banchan consisted of kimchi, spicy bean sprouts, two types of spicy scallions/green onions, and a spicy tofu soup with enoki mushrooms and chopped scallions. The intestines and stomach tasted great. I wasn't expecting everything to be so savory and flavorful. It didn't really taste too much different than various thin cuts of steak. The flavors were beefy and smoky. Expectedly, the textures were different than steak. My favorite was the dae chang. It seemed to be the fattiest as well as the tastiest. In general, the gop chang, dae chang, and mak chang all had soft and somewhat chewy consistencies. The dipping sauces (soy sauce, sesame oil with salt & pepper) are almost essential, so be sure to use them. Service was terrific. Servers cook and cut (with scissors) all of the intestines and stomach at your table. This place is a hike for intown folks like me, but I would definitely be up for a return visit.

My first time having intestines cooked like this so I have nothing to compare it to. I really liked it. It didn't have any smell or taste that you would think it would have but they cleaned it well enough that it just tastes good. We ordered a gopchang combo set so we got a variety of parts cooked at our table. In the end, they made fried rice for us as well. From what I remember, I do not remember having to pay extra for the fried rice but my friend, who went recently, said that she had to pay extra if she wanted fried rice. Our waiter was friendly as well. Very attentive and made sure that our intestines were cooking correctly. Overall, I would love to go again if I were in Georgia. I'll be trying a gopchang place in LA in a few weeks so we'll see how it goes.

Located in the new Assi Market plaza this place can get super pack - but soo worth the wait! Specialty in intestine (big or small) this place cater the best delicious bbq! (not the average typical "korean bbq" but lets say another type of yummy bbq!) You shouldn't cook/grill on yourself... the servers know what they're doing - let them take care it!! They don't serve pork but they do serve up the best marbling meat you've ever seen! OH~!! the green onion is perfection! pair them up with some kim chi and the bbq = HANDS DOWN!!! Happy BBQing~!

Keep in mind we went right as the restaurant opened, so the service was great. Food tasted pretty good. They were generous with their side dishes

So yea gave this place a try. Came here Thursday night and finally was able to get a table. Side note: came here twice and the wait is ridiculously long. Come week days before 7pm or you will have to wait a long time. So if you didn't know this is a Korean restaurant that servers cow intestines. I'm Korean and I tried it a couple times and always though it was nasty. But when u actually taste it, it's actually pretty good with a chewy texture. We got here got a table and we ordered a 3 person set combo. (Which comes with small + large intestines and upper of first and last stomach) Yea sounds nasty lol!! I'm not sure what order it came in but 2 our of 4 was decent and the rest was awful! Sorry but I guess I'm not a fan of it. Pros: you can try something real new! Cons: service was eh, not really friendly, and floor was very slippery. Overall I don't think I'll stop by. Just not my taste buds. But it was cool to see what the fuss was about. Side note: eat with beer and it's awesome ( so I was told) If u in a mood for a try come by!

The best gop change place in the world!! Service is on point and the taste is on the different level. In my honest opinion, it's better than what I had from Korea. Hands down!

At first they were the best! Daechang was NOT CUTTED and cooked well but now they cut open it and I don't like it. All the gops are gone. And it gets burned so easily. Anyways, I feel like I go there because it's marinated unlike other places and also their soy sauce dip is much better than other places. Oh and other thing is their spicy ramen noodle. It's different every time you order. One time it was same day my friend ordered ramen but it was so good and spicy we ordered second and it totally different taste.

Do u like very unique BBQ? This will be the best place for u. I didn't know they serve intestines or organ meats and I wasn't big fun of them... but workers were very very nice . For that, I will give 5 stars!

I literally walked in trying to order takeout and one of the waitresses handed me a menu, And Said and I quote "this is probably not your type of food, but let me know if you still want to try it" Keep in mind I am black so I was caught off guard immediately. Like what is that supposed to even mean? was that meant to be a warm welcome?!? I Guess this was their first time seeing black people in the restaurant but I walked out and left because I refuse To support a business that perpetuates through assumptions and stereotypes. I will not be returning.

What can I say, this is the flame. Every single visit, consistent fire. The combo prices are insanely low. Fried rice is also flame. I cant get enough

The meat is good, but the portions are questionable for the price. The staff is friendly, but the interior space is a close-to-your-neighbor atmosphere (as in, not much room between some of the tables). The soup that comes with the kbbq set is really good.

I got makchang and gopchang. For the price, portions are way too small and not worth the money in my opinion.

TL;DR - Great food great service Gopchang on fire is probably one of the only restaurant around the area that solely focuses on intestine bbq. Price is relatively cheaper compared to other Korean bbq restaurants that serve intestines and quality is much better. Whole meal isn't extravagant, they serve 3-4 side dishes and just bbq, but they make sure they're great at what they do.

Definitely a different style of korean bbq. I'm a big fan of intestines, so that definitely made this place more interesting! I tried the combo option in order to try a couple different types of intestines. The combo included small/large intestine and 2 kinds of stomach linings. Surprisingly I really enjoyed the stomach linings as they were very chewy and flavorful. This restaurant is not for the faint of heart, but it is truly a great experience to try some great cuisine

TL;DR - Fantastic Korean BBQ and great service, in a casual setting. Don't be scared by the intestines. They're delicious (this is coming from someone who had never eaten beef intestines before). My wife and I are both fairly new to Korean cuisine. We've maybe had 6 Korean meals over the past few years, and stuck to mainly the same dishes (bibimbap, bulgogi). While we have really enjoyed all of the meals we had previously, we really wanted to try something a little different. We figured, why not go out of our comfort zone and try beef intestines? Who knows? Maybe it will be insanely delicious. Fortunately, we figured right! We ordered both the dae chang (large intestine) and rib meat, and to say that it was tasty would be an understatement. The best way I can describe the dae chang is like an amazing piece of fatty beef. The flavor was off the charts fantastic. After letting it sit on the grill until the edges are all nice and brown, it gets crunchy on the outside, but stays nice and chewy on the inside. It's really amazing. The rib meat was also fantastic, but the dae chang really blew me away. As other reviewers have mentioned, the sauces they bring you (soy sauce and sesame oil) compliment the meat extremely well. In addition to the meat, we also ordered a side of kimchi fried rice, which was fantastic as well. The complimentary banchan (side dishes) were good, but definitely took a back seat to the meat. They also brought us a complimentary bowl of tofu soup, which was spicy and delicious. The service was outstanding. The restaurant was super busy (every table was full the entire 90+ minutes we were there), but the servers were always extremely prompt, and they were a huge help with preparing the intestines. For those that might not consider intestines, because it's not something most Americans would typically think about eating, I would strongly urge you to forget that and give Gopchang On Fire a try. It really is a fantastic place, and I definitely think the food would appeal to anyone that enjoys really delicious grilled meat. Plus, you get the satisfaction of seeing the looks on the faces of your family and friends when you tell them that you went out to eat beef intestines and loved it!

Love this spot. I just moved to Georgia from Los Angeles and was looking for a good gopchang spot and thank God I found this place. If you are a fan of innards this is the best spot in Geoegia. Slightly marinated, presteamed for fast cooking and packed with delicious flavor. The kimchi fried rice is also to die for. This place is a little gem.

Rude service, I wont recommend going there around midnight. They close at 10:30 but kitchen close at 11 but it seem like they dont want you there... so if you plan to go late dont expect good service! And they complain about my baby talking too loud ???? Wtf ???

Delicious gopchang daechang and makchang with lovely service! Come early to avoid long lines and enjoy ~

Brand new restaurant in the Assi mall. It's right next to the Suwanee chicken. Loved their gopchang and great service! Will go back

top of the world ! not at all ! used to be good back in maybe 3or 4 years ago? now jack the price and low on their services, very rude especially the female waitress

Food is good. First time I tried it I was hesitant but turned out to be a good alternative for Korean BBQ. For the people who won't dare to touch the intestines the restaurant offers other foods like spicy chicken w/ vegetables and regular beef slices. My family is large (6 ppl) so whenever we go we get crammed into one table. I wouldn't recommend the suwanee location to big groups. Also wait times on busy nights are usually 30-45 mins on weekends between 7-9pm and on holidays. The service is pretty good!! Away ask for the kimchi fried rice at the end!!! Only downside is the place is tiny and everything feels so crammed in.

My family and I have dined here 3-4 times within the last month or so (don't judge, we like gopchang ok??). The restaurant is rather small and the wait, especially on the weekends, can be 45mins+, so your best bet is to come on a weekday. I usually come with a total of 4 people and we order the set menu for 4 with kimchi fried rice. I've never had the intestines come out funky or had any foul taste to them, but my husband has. Make sure you let the innards cook thoroughly (your server should let you know when it's safe to eat, so be patient). The meal was rather inexpensive compared to 9292 gopchang. I will continue to support this chain. We need more gopchang places closer to the downtown Atlanta area, so I hope they expand!

This place is awesome for inside eating or takeout. Friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. The whole menu is delicious, including the sides. If you need more sides , the Waite staff brings it with a smile. Come to this restaurant for a fantastic eating experience. 10 stars!!!

One of my favorite places to eat! The food is absolutely amazing and I love getting the fried rice at the end! This restaurant has the best intestines that I have ever tasted and my favorite meat is the daechang (IT'S SO YUMMY!). The service is great, all of the servers are super friendly and nice!

Disappointed with flavor. Very plain. They can work better with dipping sauce. Dipping sauce doesn't go well with gopchang. Also, not impressed with side dishes. The reason I gave 2 stars, service was good. Waiter and waitresses were nice.

Not much side dishes and intestines are like chewing on rubber. There is a proper way to prepare intestines so that they are tender but this place does not know how.

Pricey and very poorly organized waiting list for seating orders in busy time, but taste is good.

Decided to try this place since close to home. We saw it had only been open for a short time. This place is very simple and not a lot on the menu. This place is strictly intestine bbq. The quality and service of the food and staff were on point. We had a wonderful time eating at this restaurant. Or should I call this a bar? The only thing that was upsetting was the wait time. The place is quite small and since mainly Korean people are sitting around drinking and socializing, tables are not turning over very quickly. I would say, if you are in the area and feel adventurous, give this place a try.
