Tabletop-grilled Korean barbecue and banchan, served at Doraville and Duluth strip-mall rooms along Buford Highway. Yet Tuh and Iron Age anchor the corridor.
Atlanta hosts the South's largest Korean population, concentrated north along Buford Highway and into Duluth's H Mart corridor. Korean immigration peaked in the 1990s after the Olympics drew international attention. Yet Tuh, opened in Doraville in 2008, runs the classic charcoal-grill tabletop format. Iron Age in Duluth franchised the AYCE banchan-heavy version. The corridor's depth makes Atlanta the strongest Korean food destination east of LA.
