We came to 678 on Friday evening around 6 pm, we did not have to wait for a table. We previously dined here and loved the potato salad side. We also love how this place uses charcoal to cook the meats. We ordered the combination B meal for 5 of us. It was a good amount of food. Although the meats were delicious, the noodle soup was mediocre.

678 KBBQ is pretty spacious and clean inside. The service was fine, but it was also not super busy when I was there. My friend and I did AYCE and got the pork belly, pork skin, and beef brisket. The pork belly was really good, but I was kind of taken aback by the pork skin. I was expecting the pork skin to be like a crunchy pork rind once it was grilled, but it was still very fatty and almost gelatinous? I was not a big fan of that. I also know that a lot of people like charcoal grills at KBBQ because it makes the meat taste better, but when the beef brisket was being grilled, the amount of smoke that shot up was insane. I do not know if the fans were working at the time or if it was just super hot, but the beef brisket literally just tasted like charcoal when it was done being grilled. There was no flavor of beef at all, which kind of sucked. I will say that the side dishes, corn cheese, and steamed egg, which were unlimited, were SO good! I loved the steamed egg a lot; it was pretty basic but it had a savory taste at the same time which made it more delicious than other steamed eggs I have had.

definitely a little pricey for (to me) a limited menu but the charcoal makes up for it. I'd definitely come back. it isn't my go-to though. I still prefer a variety when going ayce E X P E R I E N C E we came on a mon , as a group of 2, around 12pm. the restaurant only had two tables occupied. we were immediately sat. F O O D ayce: incl brisket, pork neck, seasoned pork neck, pork skin, pork belly, spicy pork belly, soy chicken, spicy chicken not many options for me. basically just brisket. we tried brisket x8 pork belly x1 pork skin x1/2 (interesting texture.. very chewy, thick. almost gelatin like. tastes great with pork belly together in one bite) if you want galbi (which is a crowd fave), you'd have to order the combos or order it separately :( the charcoal makes the food taste 100x better than other kbbq places (making up for the lack of options included in the ayce menu). and I love the grill bc rhe oil from the fatty meats drips out so you still get that fatty texture from the meat but not an oily coated mouth absolutely love that all the pieces of meat are sliced to perfection. the brisket is extremely thin- not too thick so it's tough, not too thin so there's no resistance to the bite. the pork belly is the same way- thick enough that there's chew but not too thick that I'm chewing for 5 years the red bean sauce and the salt/sesame oil is delectable. eat the meat with the radish to cut the oiliness! S E A T I N G ample. great for large groups as well. private rooms available S E R V I C E meng was phenomenal. she was pretty quiet/seems a bit shy. she gave us space to just have our own conversation, which was nice. she was very observant; brought us refills of radish and cheesy corn, without us asking (we loved those side dishes especially). she is also a fantastic cook with great timing. the meat would have a nice crust/char (not burnt), but not be overcooked/undercooked. it would just be al dente! P R I C E 38.99 pp ayce + tip = 98.xx

Came here because a friend likes it, partially hidden since it doesn't face Satellite Rd directly, but it's basically next to QT and Waffle House. They do an all you can eat, but we chose to go with the beef special that was $99. Really tasty, charcoal makes all the difference. Banchon was refilled as requested, but maybe 6 total. Meat was of quality and tenderness, and the service was excellent. All of the cooking was completed for us, which is always nice. Plenty of parking and other food options when you come here. Support small businesses!

I have lost count how many times I have been here. But every time, I left very satisfied. The service and the food is just spectacular. The combo options here are my favorite as it includes some of my favorite cuts. This is one stable for good quality korean bbq you can count on if you are lost because of the many choices.

Atmosphere: 678 Korean BBQ is a charcoal grill KBBQ spot with a relaxed vibe. There's a waiting area near the front of the restaurant and grills that stretch through the whole restaurant. Service: We waited for about an hour on a Sunday for dinner, which we were a bit surprised by. However, we were able to wait in their separate waiting area, which was still quite chilly in the winter, so be sure to bring a jacket that you wouldn't mind smelling like BBQ after! Food: We ordered all you can eat and tried their beef brisket, pork belly, spicy pork belly, and pork neck. They gave a good variety of banchan, and their side salads paired well with the meats. There were also some areas on the side of the grill for steamed egg, corn cheese, and kimchi to be cooked while your meat is getting grilled, which we thought was clever. The meats themselves were all fresh. Our favorite was the beef brisket, which was thin and had a balanced ratio of lean meat to fat. Overall: 678 KBBQ is a solid spot for AYCE in Atlanta. While the wait can be a little on the long side, the unique charcoal flavor of the grill and the variety of banchan made the wait worth it. A drawback might be that their beef selection and marinated options are rather limited for AYCE, but from the items we've tried, we would happily indulge in another visit.

You jave have understand what the plan is I order to leave happy here. Are you coming alone or with others but just want a plate of your favorite protein, rice and side items for yourself? Or are you coming with friends and plan on sharing with the group? The key, in my humble opinion, is knowing who you are with. Say you are slow eater but you have 3 friends who eat quite fast... your gonna lose out UNLESS you agree to just try and split everything (the meats) evenly. The individual plates will run you anywhere from 30 to 40 dollars while the LARGE group platters can run you anywhere from 90 to 200 dollars, depending on the size you get. All of their meats are delicious and theor staff is very helpful and friendly. The noodle soup you end with is more tnan plenty so make sure you leave a little room. Overall great experience, specially if you're with friends who enjoy all sorts of proteins and flavors.

From what I understand, it's a long-standing restaurant. The servers were friendly and checked in often to ensure we didn't need anything. The quality of the meat was good, as were the side dishes and other items, but there are a few things I would like to point out. 1. the restrooms. The restrooms were overflowing the day we were there. A staff member was constantly sucking the water out with a mop basket. Our family hated getting that sewer water on our clothes and legs. 2. fans. The place we ate was at the corner in the backside. The fans look very old. The problem was that it could have blown out the smoke better. We had to eat in that smoke. I recommend closing this restaurant for a day or two for building maintenance and fixing some things; then it would be almost perfect.
