Jang Su Jang

Our family has mostly visited Jang Su Jang in Duluth, so this was our first time trying the Alpharetta location. When we used to go to the Duluth Jang Su Jang nearly ten years ago, it was mainly for comforting dishes like Soondoobu, something very affordable and casual. The Alpharetta Jang Su Jang felt quite different. It’s located inside a hotel, and the atmosphere is much more upscale. Because of that, the prices are not cheap, and the overall vibe is more polished than what we were used to. It truly felt like a different version of Jang Su Jang. The food was very good, and the service was also excellent. Everything was well prepared, and the staff was attentive. However, as Korean visitors coming from out of state, it felt a bit distant from the Korean community, which makes it less likely for us to return regularly. That said, it’s definitely worth visiting at least once, especially if you’re looking for a more elegant Korean dining experience in Alpharetta.

This restaurant has a very warm vibe and I found my new fav Korean spot, the service is on point. I ordered Rice cakes with Fish and shrimp, it was spot on. They also have variety of condiments which are so tasty. A must visit!

We have been here several times, and food and service have always been great. Our favorite dishes here are stir fried squid, beef short ribs, and seafood noodle soup. They serve great mixed rice in a clay pot and grilled mackerel as well. Very friendly service. Highly recommended for authenticity and excellent taste.

First time at this location, and it’s just as good as the original in Duluth. The interior feels modern but still has that Korean restaurant vibe—big screen playing K-pop MVs and all. I went with the classic combo: tofu soup with BBQ short rib, which never disappoints. The seafood pancake was solid as always, and the pork belly with all the banchan was also very good. Definitely would go back if I visit downtown Alpharetta

This location is a modern, elevated take on their cozy Duluth spot — and it’s just as excellent. The food was full of flavor and beautifully prepared, with a great selection of classic Korean dishes. The service was attentive and kind, and the interior is thoughtfully designed, blending stylish modern elements with meaningful nods to traditional Korean culture. It’s a perfect place for a date, a get-together with friends, or a relaxed lunch with adult family members.

I ordered from this restaurant for the first time today and was deeply disappointed. I paid $24.77 for a bibimbap, expecting a full adult-sized meal for my son. When I arrived home and opened the container, I was surprised to find what looked more like a sampler—just a spoonful or two of meat and minimal vegetables. There was no mention on the menu that this was a reduced portion or kid-sized dish. For the price, this felt completely unreasonable and caused a real inconvenience, as I had to go elsewhere to buy a proper meal. The presentation was fine, but the value simply wasn’t there. I’d love to return, but only if value and clarity improve.

This Korean restaurant has a welcoming and modern atmosphere that I initially appreciated. However, after multiple visits, I've lowered my rating by two star. Many dishes appear to have been prepared too far in advance, and the quality doesn't justify the prices. Parking is also consistently problematic. While I understand the restaurant is located in downtown Alpharetta, customers shouldn't have to bear the burden of these ongoing issues.

We got 3 different dishes, they were all tasty. I would minus half a star though because the beef rice hot plate only really has a very little bit of beef. It was more like a garnish. Just keep that in mind when ordering. The flavors were very good though.

My FAVORITE place to get Haemul Pajeon in ATL. So glad they opened a sister branch close to our home! Things you should know: I. PARKING Up the street, there is a free parking garage (by the animal hospital). It's a brief walk to Jang Su Jang from there if you can't find street parking out front. II. SERVICE Attentive with banchan refills and timely with bringing out our order. I was wearing a white dress and they were considerate enough to give me a clear, plastic apron so I wouldn't dirty my outfit! III. QUALITY Literally, nothing here has disappointed us! For my friends who don't know how to navigate the menu, here are a couple recommendations: * Haemool Pajun (해물파전) * Bulgogi Mushroom Jungol (불고기 버섯전골) * Kimchi Soft Tofu (김치 순두부) if you like spicy IV. CAPACITY They're relatively new so please show them support so they can thrive 제가 애틀란타에서 해물파전을 먹기 가장 좋아하는 곳입니다. 우리 집 근처에 새로운 지점이 생겨서 너무 기쁩니다! 알아두셔야 할 사항: I. 주차 길 위쪽에 있는 무료 주차장이 있습니다 (동물 병원 근처). 만약 가게 앞에서 주차를 못 하셨다면, 그곳에 주차 후 장수장까지 걸어오시면 됩니다. II. 서비스 반찬 리필과 주문을 가져다주는 타이밍이 매우 신속했습니다. 제가 흰색 원피스를 입고 있었는데, 옷을 더럽히지 않도록 투명한 일회용 앞치마를 챙겨주는 세심함도 있었습니다. III. 음식의 질 여기서 실망한 적이 단 한 번도 없습니다! 메뉴 선택이 어려우신 분들을 위해 몇 가지 추천드리겠습니다: * 해물파전 * 불고기 버섯전골 * 매운 음식을 좋아하신다면 김치 순두부 IV. 좌석 수 이곳은 비교적 최근에 오픈한 곳이니 많은 관심과 응원을 보내주셔서 잘 정착할 수 있도록 도와주세요.

Parking is a real tragedy, prepare to hunt and hunt and then ultimately go on a long walk to get from a parked car to the restaurant. We got the bulgogi lettuce wraps, seafood pancake, fried calamari, bibimbop, beef soup. Would not recommend the calamari. Comes out fried in tempura which actually was very nice but the stiff, finger-like calamari was tough and quite scary looking once the fried portion came off. Seafood pancake if definitely the way to go, includes calamari and more and overall very tasty. The beef and tofu bibimbop was not plentiful in the beef or tofu but overall was very nice and didn't feel bogged down by restaurant salts and who knows what. It came with a bonus presentation in the hot pot and frying the egg, who doesn't love a dinner and a show? The beef soup really is the star! I felt my soul heal itself with just a few slurps of soup, my bones were warmed from the inside out. Soup is legit whatever throat secret ingredient is really kept me running! 4 stars - good food but just off enough to not go running back any time soon.

Jang Su Jang is one of our favorite Korean restaurants in Atlanta! The short rib stew is absolutely amazing and packed with flavor. It's such a rich and comforting dish, a personal favorite of mine! We also tried the bossam, and I actually really enjoyed it despite not liking fatty pork belly. The dumplings were good as well. Honestly I don't think you can go wrong with anything you order here. But I highly recommend trying the short rib stew!!

Super clean and nice interior. Parking can be a little difficult but it isn't too complicated. The side dishes were perfect and plentiful. I got the Soteok Skewer and it was perfectly crispy and chewy with a sweet glaze. My dad and I shared the Short Ribs for 2 and it was plenty for the both of us. It was so good that I still dream about it The staff was attentive but there's a little button you can press if you do need something ! The food is a little pricey but I assume it's because of the location and how new the place is but other than that, it's so good !!!

I passed through this place multiple times and loved the decor and vibe and one day finally gave it a try. Here is the summary of my experience at Jang Su Jang: 1) Ambiance 6/5: I absolutely loved the vibe and ambiance of this place. This looks like a very posh fine dining space. This was my major reason for visiting this place 2) Service 5/5: The people here are very helpful and they make sure that you are properly taken care of. They were patient and helpful in explaining the different options and even suggested things to replace in case you wanted a vegetarian experience. 3) Food 4/5: The highlight of our experience was the small sides that were offered to us along with our main food. You can order them unlimited and they are delicious - something for every taste bud. Here is the summary of my experience with the food we ordered: a) Fried calamari: They were crispy and tasty. Worth a re-order as an appetizer. b) Mushroom Tofu: The tofu was very soft which was served with a side of rice. Overall the taste was good. This was one of the few menu items which was vegetarian (even without egg). I wanted to try Ramen soft tofu but was told that it might have fish oil or egg in them. c) LA Gaibi: I believe it was this dish but pardon me if I missed it. The portion was huge but my wife did not like the taste of it. The sides also were great accompanying it. 4) Value for Money 4/5: It's not the cheapest place for Korean food but given the ambiance and the helpful people there, I can let the price slide a little. In summary: It is worth a visit if you love beef and steak and want to experience fine dining at cheaper prices. The good: 1) Ambiance 2) Service 3) Sides for your dishes Not so Good: 1) Not many options for vegetarians 2) A little pricey

Food here was absolutely delicious, We ordered the Bosam Jungsik (Boiled pork with lettuce wraps and veggies) and the King beef short rib stew for two! I couldn't recommend the beef stew enough- it was some of the best I've had! I also loved all of the side dishes they were all fresh and tasty! Service and ambiance was great- we came on a Saturday and were seated immediately. My only complaint is that parking in downtown alpharetta is a hassle so please keep that in mind

Jang Su Jang is the perfect addition to dt Alpharetta and I'm glad they branched out from their original Duluth location. Alpharetta hasn't had decent Asian food offerings and this is a game changer. Great food, gorgeous and modern interior, and quick service! Food: The banchan was good quality and we enjoyed the spicy galbijim entree we ordered. It was too sweet for how I like galbijim, but it was still good. It also was barely spicy. My boyfriend enjoys very spicy food so we asked for a side of spicy sauce on the side. The waitress brought out this little cup and warned us that it is extremely spicy....That was an overstatement- it was one of the spiciest things he ever had! Be careful if you request that. We also tried the spicy tteokbokki which was decent. Overall, I would definitely come back to eat delicious Korean food here. Alpharetta, please continue to open good Asian restaurants!!

Friend visited from NY, I would say Korean food is best in GA. Usually my family visit the original one in Duluth. They open one in Alpharetta which is closer to home. Love this new location! High ceiling, modern, clean, nice vibes. Servers are very attentive. 6 small dishes of appetizers to start with plus Korean bean soup. Seafood pancakes is not the traditional thin pancake but the fried thick and crispy with a lot of seafood and veggies! Galbijjim (braised beef short ribs) is the dish you cannot miss! Short ribs are so flavorful and just the right tenderness! Love eating all the veggies - radishes, pumpkins, carrots! Rice cakes are like gold... only two pieces. The sweet and savory bring your tastebuds to the next level! Very satisfying!

There on Superbowl Sunday. Service was fabulous. Our server was super attentive and excited to share info about the business. Hand-cut noodles were sooooo yummmmm!

Based on the pictures, I think you'll see why I can't take a single star off... By the time I thought to take a picture of the food, it was gone. Not sure how that happened, except that it was just as great as the Duluth location! My wife ordered ramen and dumpling soondubu for herself, white soondubu for the kids, kalbi to share, and I ordered a new one for me: yukgaejang galguksu. Everything was fantastic. Although parking isn't exactly convenient (that's the area, not the restaurant, though), we're definitely adding this to our rotation!

I came here for a family dinner tonight. Food was amazing. Yes parking sucks but there's two decks so you'll find a spot if you come early enough. I would've honestly gave them 5 stars if we didn't have to keep asking our server for things over and over again. The dumplings took way too long. One of my brother's food took longer than the rest of us so we just sat there for a while until he got it. Everything was delicious but I guess overall it sucked service wise because our server just didn't get what we were asking for. Ask them for two waters when you sit down because your server won't come back. Will definitely come back!

Great to have Korean food in Alpharetta. Kimchi Red is so busy these days, it's difficult to get a table so options are very welcome. Jang Su Jang is fairly well known so it's nice to see it show up here. I had ordered a decent spread to sample a few things. It's not as good as the Duluth location so seeing all the five-star reviews is probably just hype, in my opinion. Here's what's good: Short rib stew -- outstanding LA galbi -- pretty good Grilled mackerel -- could be better but not bad Dolsot bibimbap -- solid So tteok -- tasty Not so good: Seafood pancake -- overcooked Deep-fried mandoo -- average, wrappers taste generic Alcoholic drink choices were a bit lopsided. They have sake flights on the menu, but when you ask about it, there's no sake available. :/ Situated in the old Sabu restaurant (you might even see some familiar Sabu choices), the interior is beautiful, but I have to admit I wish it was cozier. Service was friendly. You can even experience the table side call buttons to get your server's attention which every restaurant should have.

Legit some of the best Korean food my husband and I have ever had! We found this place on a whim driving through Atlanta one day. So glad we decided to stop! The restaurant itself was very aesthetically pleasing and put together. However the food was on a different level! Everything was delicious! The staff was nice but again the food is really what got us.

A great Korean spot in the center of Alpharetta! I will say it is a bit on the pricier side for Korean cuisine but it was well worth it for the taste and portion! I went with my team on a weeknight and there were many seats available. The service was quick and we got to order right away.

Good creative dishes true to authentic Korean! Probably the best seafood pancake. Parking is the biggest challenge as there's nothing nearby. Situated right next to the Hamilton hotel. Service was very good.

The Best Korean Alpharetta' has to offer. Excellent experience this evening. Bonchan , Kim Chi, Dumplings, Vegetable pancake. Spicy Seafood Noodle Soup I would not hesitate to bring company here to explore Korean food.

I love the product, but truly prefer it in its original location. The glitz of Milton does not do the cultural experience justice. Kudos for use of space, especially projecting the tv screen onto the wall. Service was great as usual and the food delicious.

Oh my gosh! I think I found the best place when I need a Korean food fix. Now located in Alpharetta, I no longer need to drive to Duluth to satisfy my taste buds. The variety of offerings on the menu is very extensive. So much so that it was difficult to make a decision. I will have to return several time just to sample the various dishes offered. I found the servers to be friendly as well as attentive. They were willing to answer all of our questions, including the amount of "heat" a dish may have. Check it out! You won't be disappointed.

I can see why this is regarded as the best Korean food in the Atlanta area. The atmosphere is wide open and they have models of the food on the counter. The server was really nice and super quick with everything. When talking about the food, there is so much to say. Let's start with the sides cause they are addictive for sure. The bonchon they serve are amazing!!! The kimchi was perfect, not only is crunchy but it is not as vinegary as other kimchi you will find. Which is good for people who may be trying it for the first time. The potato that they give is a nice bite also and the broccoli small dish was a surprise and was one of the best sides I have had at any Korean place I have ever been. Also, if you want a refill of any of them they are more than happy to do so for you. The menu is good and has a lot of good options, they also have a tapas menu, and a specials menu. My wife got the bulgogi lettuce wraps and the mini veggie pancake off the tapas menu and I got the pork cutlet (tonkatsu) off the specials menu and they were all really good choices. The mini veggie pancake is the perfect share for 2 people and you need to eat it with the house sauce that they bring the table. Crispy, veggie were fresh and the star of the show, and the sauce balanced everything out and made it pop. The tonkatsu was better than most I have ever had. Even if you don't like pork very much this is still an amazing choice because it is light and the katsu sauce that comes with it cuts the fatness and adds so much depth to it. Plus the miso ginger dressing with the cabbage that comes with it is the right side for it. They also add a lil egg salad on the side and it is so creamy and light that it is a bonus to the plate. Highly recommend this to anyone that has never been to Korean places before or really loves Korean food. You don't have to break the bank to eat amazing.

The food and service were great. We were a party of four and we ordered Japchae, Bibimbap and the King Beef Short Rib stew. We had a nice selection of Bamchan with the meal and it was plenty. Highly recommend the Short Rib stew, it was incredibly savory. I will come back again.

Believe the reviews! This place is one of the best meals all around. Great food, great ambience and fantastic service. We started going to the original location in Duluth years ago. This location equally as fantastic. All these highly rated: Beef bulgogi Short Ribs Mushroom Tofu Soup Kimchi Korean version of Waldorf Salad Can skip the rice carbs with a lettuce wrap Love, love love it hear. Our new favorite spot.

I love the starters they offer before anything ordered. They are tasty and nicely made. The dishes have great portions and taste authentic to me. The service is very warm and kind. They could do split by dishes which I must say generally take some effort. Ambiance is stylish and chill. Definitely a place worth multiple visits

Wonderful food, great service, good prices. I lived in Korea for over a year and this is a great Korean restaurant. I'm happy that they chose to open in Alpharetta. Great addition.

Great food. I really enjoyed the Ox Knee Soup. The dish was a slight step outside of my preferences just because it didn't have any meat and I'm not a huge fan of the texture of ligaments/cartilages, but I aware of what I was ordering and I really enjoyed it. It was a great dish that also satisfied my desire to try something a little new. The service and ambiance were right on par with each other. Think nice-dinner/nice-lunch/date-night vibes. Everything was great!

North Fulton Food Snob Alert‼ no longer do you have to drive to Duluth for amazing Korean Food. Jang Su Jang opened a second location in downtown Alpharetta and it's good. My party of 5 decided to skip the mimosa crowd and opt for an early Sunday lunch at Jang Su Jang. We arrived at 11:30 am and were the 2nd table to be seated. We ordered the Beef Bulgogi lettuce wraps for appetizer and for main course (family style) we ordered the Spicy Pork, Seafood Pancake, Spicy Squid (Ohjinguh Bokum) and Grilled Short Ribs (La Galbi). We also ordered one non-Korean item - the Chicken Teriyaki for our unadventurous mate. Everything came out hot and sizzling. The Banchan (starters) were delicious and plentiful and my favs were the spicy cucumbers and kimchi. Everything was delicious but I'll definitely be back to have that crispy seafood pancake and spicy squid. Service was excellent and the ambiance is cute and cozy. In fact, the restaurant is attached to the Hamilton hotel which is so convenient. Run don't walk to try it!

Classic, reliable, traditional Korean food. Always such a good time. I bring guests here every time they're looking for Korean food because the side dishes are always on point and the range is amazing. Always something for everyone!

Great food. They cook for you, kitchen style not hibachi. Ate rice service when you use the service buttons

I love Jang Su Jang in Duluth and eat there probably at least once a month. Food is delicious and the staff are wonderful and attentive. This Alpharetta location however, is not it, for me at least. The location and decor is swanky but food isn't as good as their Duluth location and the service was non-existent. The owner lady was nice and greeted us. Our actual server however, couldn't be bothered to do his job. He took our order then was not seen again until he brought the check (without us asking and still plenty of food on the table as it was clear we were not finished). When we went there were maybe 3-4 tables and even so another server brought out our food and did all the beverage refills. Our server stood by the bar counter most of the time not doing anything other than cater to another table of his, that got noticeably better service than us. The service was 0 stars. Only giving it a 3 star because the owners were nice and I know how good their other location is. Just go to the Duluth location, where they treat everyone, nicely.

Food is authentic and always amazing. Best Korean restaurant I have been to since I lived in Korea.

For appetizers we got various skewers, all were delicious but the SoTteok SoTteok was our favorite. When the appetizers were brought out, so were all the typical side dishes that come with Korean barbecue. Everything was good, especially the cucumbers and potatoes! We split an order of King Beef Short Rib Stew for 2 for the table. We were 5 people and it was plenty for us to all get some! Extremely tasty, this was the best thing we tasted! We all got various main dishes and every single one was flavorful and delicious. Our favorites were the DaeJi BulGogi and the Seafood Soft Tofu. The service was incredible. Our waitress was very nice and consistently made sure we had everything we needed. The ambiance was great. The inside was clean and modern. They had a giant projector that took up the entire wall, so this is a great place to watch a game too! I would highly recommend Jang Su Jang to satisfy your Korean food craving in Alpharetta!

So excited that they opened one near me! My sister and I usually have to drive 40+ minutes to the one in Duluth. We ordered the Galbi, a spicy beef kalguksu (spicy beef noodle soup), bssom (pork with sides), and the kimchi beef tofu stew (medium spice). The entrees came with lots of little side dishes called banchan - kimchi, cucumber, fish cakes, mashed potatoes, broccoli, cabbage, etc. Everything tasted absolutely wonderful and exactly like the other location. For those unfamiliar with authentic Korean food, I would recommend the LA Galbi, BiBimBop (rice with various vegetables), seafood pancake, and the beef stew with carrots and potatoes. The food is very authentic and full of flavor. I will definitely be a regular here!

Great Korean food! I usually go to their location in Duluth, but wanted to try their Alpharetta location. I ordered the Kimchi Soft Tofu soup and the marinated Galbi. Both were very tasty and equally as good as the location in Duluth. However, the Woo guh ji galbi tang was way too oily. Service was excellent though. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Something to note is that this is perhaps the better location for those who don't speak Korean. Ambiance is very nice as it is attached to a hotel (shares a bathroom with the hotel also). The interior is modern and decorated nicely. It was nice to see some continuity in their decor as they have a bowl display similar to their Duluth location. Overall, I would recommend trying Jang Su Jang!

Grew up eating at their OG location in Duluth. I always remember the place having great service, tasty variety of banchan, and soul warming food. When I heard they opened up a new location in Alpharetta I had to try it out. The interior is more modern and clean as usual. The menu however was a paper printout and dirty. While the OG location is in a nice hardcover panel menu book. The selection is also more limited and the portion was not filling especially for the price. Overall, the food and service was descent, it needs some adjustments and would be a great restaurant. I would give it a 3.5/5 for this location.

Delicious! Caveat: I am spoiled by the amazing food from K-town in Southern CA, but 4 stars means I definitely recommend and would come back. Located at the bottom of the Hamilton hotel, it is a chic- and upscale-looking restaurant. Service is friendly and patient; I also love the call buttons. Dok boki, bulgogi, chicken teriyaki, and jap chae were standard. Galbi was great--so tender that you can actually bite it when using chopsticks! Beef stew recommended by out waiter was nice comfort food with turnip that soaked the juicy stew. Ban chan was good though not refilled: potato salad, kim chi, glass noodle/cabbage/carrot, yummy spicy cucumbers, and more. Drinks were pretty tasty too: got a strawberry margarita that was not too sweet. Portions were standard; prices were on the higher side but likely what I would pay in CA. Overall a solid place and would come back if wanting Korean food in the area.

I went to the new location in Alpharetta with a few friends, and I will have to say, I loved the food and experience a lot more than the Duluth location! The waitresses were so kind and helpful. I got the Seafood pancake (and my gosh, I've never had a crispier one!) and the Galbi tang.

Awesome food. We ordered hot sake, lettuce wrap. Location was perfect, right at the center of downtown.

Wow! Excellent Korean cuisine, excellent ambience and excellent service! They get 3 Es from me!

We want to Jang Su Jang for the first time tonight. It won't be the last. Excellent in all respects - food, service and ambience. This place is in our rotation now.

I tried this new location and I really enjoyed how close they're located in downtown Alpharetta. They have several new menu items compared to the Duluth location one, which I think it's delicious I had a great time dining here with my in-laws to have them experience Korean foods. I will definitely eat here again!!!

Outstanding tofu soup , the service is good . Wish they understood English better , would help to get the order correct , but the food is outstanding.

It DID meet my expectations as it is the most delicious Korean restaurant in this area. Galbi (Korean marinated ribs ) are thicker than other restaurants (which I loved)- sweet and flavorful. Bossam (Korean boiled pork wrap) is very tender and juicy. Must try wrapping it with Napa cabbage and house made pickled raddish. Bibimbap is also must try- pouring egg on hot stone pot is unique. The side dishes are also presented neatly. Highly recommend!!!

I highly recommend King beef short rib stew, seafood pancake, la galbi and their king beef rib soup!! Service is always good and they have the best Ban Chan (side dishes)!!

The food, service and ambiance were all excellent. I wish I had five stomach because eating the ban Chan filled me up before the pork belly came out. It was cooked to perfection! I will definitely go there again when I'm in Alpharetta, Georgia!

Great customer service and the food was fresh and delicious. The ambiance has an modern sophisticated vibe with good upbeat background music.

Great service. We were running late and got there 30 min before closing and they were willing to accommodate us. The mackerel was good. The beef stew was on the sweet side. It wasn't our cup of tea and if you don't like sweet as a flavor. Recommendation would be to skip it as it's a 60 dollar dish

We encountered superb service. They had provided extra sides since the kids devoured them.

First time here. Good ambience. The bbuddae jiggae was horrible. Don't order it, esp for the price. It was bland and had hardly anything in it. Waitresses were very kind, but took a long time to order.

What an absolutely amazing experience and some of the best Korean food I've ever had, including time spent in Seoul. The highlights ... the pork belly is just mouth watering good. Everything we ordered from appetizers to mains was just over the top in a very modern hip atmosphere. Will be back again and again. Well worth putting on the top of your list.

Probably the best Korean BBQ I have ever had!!! The tapas were fabulous!!! We will definitely be back!!!!
