Thanks for watching the FOURTH season of our Eater show, K-Town. We started out in LA's Koreatown but I always knew, in my mind, that this series had to go to Atlanta. I'd never been to Atlanta but just heard so many great things about the food scene, and honestly, the Korean food in ATL is as good as LA's. and as good as KOREA's. Atlanta should be proud of its amazing Korean food. I can't wait to share more of the finds in the next few weeks. Stay tuned!

There are definitely a high concentration of Korean restaurants there on Buford highway, but there is also an extremely high concentration of Chinese, Vietnamese, Malaysian and Mexican restaurants, some of which the best of what the city of Atlanta has to offer(and I would argue some of the best in the southeast. Buford hwy is less a k-town and more of a melting pot of a lot of different ethnic cuisines. You want Korea town, go to Duluth/Johns Creek.

These videos are cool but a lot of people want to see cuisines other than just Korean or Korean fusion. I feel like they're pushing the Korean thing way too hard. You have Thai food, Indian food, Italian, Japanese, Carribbean, Chinese etc so I don't see why every video has to be Korean cuisine

Nice, I never heard of this Korean restaurant on Buford Hwy. I mainly just go where my Korean friends suggest so this will be cool to check out. I think he (or Eater) should do a whole series (just a couple of episodes) on Atlanta Korean food, especially in Duluth where the real K-Town is.

I've been looking for some great Korean in Atlanta. But after living in LA for 25-years, I've been kind of disappointed, so I'm looking forward to checking out this place. I'll be back to review it then. In the meantime, thanks for posting, bro.

Duluth is great, but so is anything on Buford Highway. Yet Tuh will always have a special place in my heart. My husband and I had our first date there, and then a year later her proposed to me there. I love everything that I've eaten there.

Korean reminds me of Lady Rainicorn from Adventure Time (she speaks it, but it isn't dubbed) or Korea's excellent, excellent movies. (Mother - not to be confused with the Jennifer Lawrence movie - is one of my favorites)

Great review mate: . Eater has such great reviewers but you guys get a bad rep because of that brother and sister duo. Even the meat show is great compared to those two. They don't know what they are talking about
