Head up to Duluth for Korean fried chicken at Thank U Chicken. It’s totally worth the long trek north. While Thank U offers traditional batter-fried chicken on its menu, the standout stars include the soy sauce marinated and the spicy sauce fried birds. An entire chicken here averages around $25. Beer and wine are also available.

Jennifer Zyman, Atlanta Magazine restaurant critic and former editor of Eater Atlanta, raved about this newly-opened Korean barbecue spot last year. The restaurant uses traditional charcoal table grills rather than electric. The unmistakeable, smokey flavor the grill produces in the meats along with the quality of the meat used make all the difference. Order the Special #2 with seasoned pork, pork belly, beef short ribs, rib eye, beef bulgogi, and brisket. It comes with banchan (Korean side dishes including kimchi fried rice).

Pocha is short for pojangmacha, meaning “tented wagon” or a Korean street food vendor. Han Shin mirrors the feel of a Japanese izakaya with warm woods, rows of tables, and small dining “huts” surrounding the perimeter inside. It’s great for late nights, beer, soju, small bites, and karaoke. Try the smoked pork slices with bean sprouts or the budae jjigae (“army soup”) made with ham, sausage, baked beans, and kimchi or the spicy kimchi hot pot.

Some say the banchan at this Eater Essential 38 restaurant is the best in Atlanta.

While many people head to Food Terminal to eat dinner, don’t discount their next door neighbor, Dish Korean. This bright and airy restaurant mixes modern with tradition both in its dining room and its dishes. Snack on banchan, which quickly arrives at the table once seated, then share a seafood pancake, the spicy short rib or stir-fried squid bokkeum, and kimchi fried rice with spam or broth-tossed noodles with clams. The budae jjigae (spicy sausage, spam stew) here is comforting, filling, and totally worth the order, too. Like burgers? Try the dduck galbhi made with short rib and topped with spicy cabbage and house mayo.

Now open in Oakhurst, Son of a Bear Korean tavern and soju bar is owned by Michael Lo and chef George Yu (Taiyo Ramen, Suzy Siu’s Baos, Noona). The tavern’s menu focuses on shareable, family-style small plates such as kimchi fried rice balls, Korean fried chicken wings, and country fried kalbi bites and larger dishes like beef bulgogi and pork bo ssam. For something a bit heartier, order the hangover ramyeon with pork belly and kimchi. It pairs perfectly with a Cass on draft.
