East Wave Kitchen

Ordered the power rice bowl with bulgogi beef and was disappointed. $14 for a half filled container with a spoon of meat(they charged an extra $4.50 for that alone) which was somewhat overcooked. You already have to think twice when you see all black waitstaff and cooks in an Asian fusion restaurant(there wouldn't be any expectation of anything less if Koreans were cooking soul food) and that's exactly what I got. Mayonnaise for seasoning with a little sweet sauce and some spice. The previous owners knew how to deliver on quality, quantity and fairer prices and I miss going there(especially the pho) after discovering them last year. I will not be coming back to this place as it is clearly a downgrade from the last one...at least have the decency to change the name so customers aren't dece

I recently returned back to Atl for a concert at State Farm Arena. I had walked past this GEM on the hunt for food and decided to circle back after viewing the menu online. I am extremely glad I did! The food was absolutely fantastic! The customer service exceeded my expectations. The owner himself came out to make sure I didn’t need anything else and the food is to my liking. To top it off I was there to see Fantasia and in conversation I had mentioned that to the owner and to my surprise he started playing her music. I was floored. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience and food that burst with flavor! I hope to return soon! Give them a try you will be NOT be disappointed! Long overdue but I had to take a moment to shout them out!!

My cousins and I randomly decided to try this spot and it did not disappoint! The vegetarian pho pot stickers are amazing! The portion size of the entrees are huge & decked with lots of flavor. I also ordered their hot honey garlic wings and those are now my absolute favorite! The service was amazing and the staff was so kind! I cannot wait to come back and try more items! (Unfortunately I do not have pictures of my order because I tore it up)

To start, I had no clue this place opened up recently! I originally thought it's been closed for four years, but it reopened under a new owner I think. This menu is entirely Korean based food, unlike the fusion I've seen in older menus. I got kimchi + spicy pork + rice and it was delicious for the most part. The price and portion is great for the area. The spicy pork was actually spicy and pretty strong while the kimchi was fermented and strong but savory. My only complaint was that the rice was a little stale. They provide self-service kiosks and have very hospitable workers. The atmosphere is also very chill but gets full quick during lunch times.

This restaurant recently reopened as a Korean street food restaurant, and I am so glad that it did. It is the most authentic Korean I’ve tried south of Doraville and definitely the best in the downtown area. The menu boasts a variety of tasty, traditional Korean food items that remind you of umma’s cooking, including customizable combos, which I personally have really enjoyed. The portions are generous, pricing is very reasonable, the service is friendly and quick, and the vibes are chill if you’re planning to sit down for a meal. I’ve seen many Korean-speaking Koreans come through for lunch and that in itself speaks to the authenticity of this place. It’s encouraging to see a Korean establishment in downtown ATL that actually does its food right and represents Korean cuisine well. Definit
