“ This Chinese-Korean place gets 5 stars from both a Chinese and a Korean. We ordered the classic jjampong/jajangmyun/tangsuyuk and would recommend all 3. I usually dislike jjampong but this one changed my life. It is packed with seafood and the broth is so rich with umami flavor without being too sour or overwhelming. The jajangmyun was great and the noodles were perfectly cooked and the tangsuyuk was crispy. Anyway I might be a jjampong girl now, but only at this restaurant. ”

“ My friends came here to celebrate another milestone through our graduate program. Half of them had already gotten a private table in a secluded room being a party of 6. Perfect if you're looking to celebrate more intimately with your group. We got their Go chu jap chae, Cream shrimp, Jjambbong, Tangsuyuk, and Seafood jaengban. It was my first time having Go chu jap chae but I really enjoyed all the bell peppers and onions with thin cuts of beef. The fluffy rolls were just a plus. Cream shrimp were also fluffy but my favorite dishes were definitely the Jjambbong and Seafood jaengban. It was difficult to say which one I liked better because they were both delicious in their own ways! The Tangsuyuk was also crispy with the sweet and sour dipping sauce on the side. Overall, my friends and I had a great time. The food was fantastic, the portions were hefty, and the prices were justified. Staff were attentive and efficient so I can't wait to come again. Come check them out, you won't regret it! ”

“ Ohhhh man this place is good quality food, great quantity, for a relatively low price! Def recommend if you are craving some good jjajangmyun that's not hard on your wallet. The place itself is pretty big, lots of seating. I came in with a couple friends on a Saturday evening and it was packed. The service was good and food came out fast. ”

“ Came to try the jjm but it was not mind blowing. As I prefer mine a bit saucier and this was a bit dry and had a lot of rawer onions. However, it is good price if you just get the regular base one. What did impress me however, is the specialty dish we ordered. The chicken tasted almost Vietnamese with a lot of citrus and fish sauce flavors. It was very refreshing and something I've never had before. They do get busy so expect a full restaurant during weekend lunch time. I do like the round family style tables they have available. There's also a side room so the restaurant has decent amount of seating. Our server was nice and kind. ”

“ I was in Atlanta for a business trip and was staying near a co-worker in Duluth who took us here. Coming from the Bay Area, Korean food for me is Korean BBQ and Korean Hotdogs. Going to an actual dine in Korean Restaurant was a whole new experience. Lots of parking outside, the restaurant was clean, the staff were very attentive. My coworker ordered their popular dishes that we are trying for the first time: Jjajang myun (black bean noodle), jjam bbong (spicy seafood noodle), and Tang soo yook - sweet and sour pork dish. They also had Chinese dishes so we added Mongolian Beef that we all know. Service was fast and food was served hot. Everything was delicious, I like that the sweet and sour sauce was separate rather drenched that we could just dip the fried pork in it. The Black Bean Noodle and Spicy Seafood noodle were very tasty. You can request the spicy/hot level to your preference, or request for non spicy. Huge servings, we even had leftovers to take home. I will definitely come back to try other dishes. Highly recommend Zoong Guk Jib if ever in the Duluth area. They sure made a lasting impression that I will be looking for these items in Korean Restaurants here in the Bay Area. :) ”

“ There is a new location in ASSI plaza that is really cozy but delicious. Fast and helpful service, and the flavor of the seafood ja jiangmyun and palbochae was terrific! Support small businesses! ”

“ Heard that the jjajang myun was really good here, and it did not disappoint. For only $8, it was a generous portion. The noodles were nice and bouncy. We also ordered the pork and shrimp sweet and sour dishes, and that was plenty to share amongst 4 people. They were fried perfectly. The interior is nice and the staff is very friendly. Would definitely recommend this place if you're craving Korean-Chinese cuisine! ”

“ Zoong Guk Jib is the best Korean-Chinese restaurant in Georgia. This place is about as "authentic" and legit as it gets in the States. That's all you need to know. If you want details, keep reading. Zoong Guk Jib or "jung-gug jib" is Korean for "Chinese home." The business opened in January 2022. It's located in the Duluth Village shopping center (Pho 24, Harue Korean Chicken, Rothem Cafe, White Windmill) on Peachtree Industrial Blvd, south of Pleasant Hill Rd. It replaced Korean homestyle restaurant Seoul Shin Jung (which I rated four stars back in 2017): https://bit.ly/3veSv0l This place is popular, especially among the local Korean community. Try calling and making a reservation. We were able to get a reservation for our party of nine on a Sunday at 6:30pm. When we arrived, the restaurant's two dining rooms were completely full. We heard that waiting for a table here is common. Good luck on the weekends. This is one of those Korean businesses in Duluth that's owned and operated by Koreans for Koreans. Case in point, specials on the blackboard menu, just inside the entrance, were written in Korean only. Don't let that stop you though. The regular menu wasn't great when it came to English translations, but there were helpful pictures and the servers (at least, the ones we interacted with) were nice and accommodating. Plus, you can research what to order on Yelp beforehand. Below is a list of what we ordered, using the restaurant's English descriptions. I'll try to elaborate more on each. This list should give you a good idea of what this place has to offer and how much everything generally costs. I've been to my fair share of Korean-Chinese restaurants on/around Buford Highway and in Gwinnett County over the years and I don't remember any coming as close to Zoong Guk Jib in terms of variety. For example, they offer six different kinds of jajangmyeon and seven varieties of jjamppong (spicy noodle soup). Pretty much all the Korean-Chinese staples are on the menu and we got most of them. Noodle * Jjajang Myun x2 ($7.95 each) - noodles with black bean sauce, pork, and vegetables * Hae Mul Szechuan Style Jjajang Myun ($26.95) - noodles with black bean sauce in Szechuan style with seafood, pork, and vegetables Pork * Chopssal Tang Soo Yuk x2 ($21.95 each) - fried pork with sweet rice flour with sweet and sour sauce * Mapo Tofu ($20.95) - stir-fried tofu, minced pork, vegetables in chili bean sauce. Chicken * Kan Poong Ki ($22.95) - fried chicken in sweet and sour garlic sauce with spicy peppers and vegetables Shrimp * Creme Sae Woo ($28.95) - fried shrimp in creamy lemon sauce Special Dishes * Palbochae ($32.95) - stir-fried seafood and vegetables in spicy oyster sauce * Yan Jang Pi ($33.95) - stir-fried starch sheets with beef, vegetables, and cold seafood and vegetables Side Dishes * Small White Rice x5 ($1.95 each) Everything was fresh, outstanding, and well executed with generous portion sizes. I think Zoong Guk Jib has the best Jjajang Myun in metro Atlanta. It's the best among those I've had in recent memory. The restaurant gets everything right, from the noodle texture to the balance and flavor of the jajang (fried black gravy) that covers the noodles. This was my first time trying Hae Mul Szechuan Style Jjajang Myun. It was something else. The best way for me to describe it is it's "Jjajang Myun Paella," complete with jumbo shrimp, shell-on mussels, octopus, and squid plus pork and greens. The Chopssal Tang Soo Yuk (fried pork) and Kan Poong Ki (fried chicken) were excellent. Both are served with sweet and sour sauce, but the sauces are different. The Chopssal Tang Soo Yuk sauce came with onion, carrot, red cabbage, and cucumber. The sauce was served on the side. For one dish, we poured the sauce on top. For the other, we dipped the pieces of pork into the sauce. It was yummy both ways. I really enjoyed the rice flour batter which had a softer, more delicate consistency. The Kan Poong Ki is similar to American Chinese food, e.g., fried chicken with sugary sauces, but better. I recommend the Palbochae, Yan Jang Pi, and Mapo Tofu. These dishes were filling, satisfying, and packed with flavor. You need to order them with rice. Unlike a typical Chinese restaurant, rice must be ordered separately here. The Palbochae and Yan Jang Pi amount to large stir-fries of meat and/or seafood with veggies and tasty sauces. Add squeeze-bottled spicy mustard to the Yan Jang Pi. The mustard elevates the dish to another level. The Mapo Tofu here is some of the best around. Complimentary kimchi and pickled takuan (danmuji -- yellow daikon radish) was served with our meal. Crisp and delicious. Service was great. Despite a busy dinnertime service, our entire order came out fast. The staff was friendly. And they provided plenty of scissors for us to cut the noodles. Closed Tuesdays. Shout-out to my friend and fellow Yelper Jinsoon Y for introducing me to some of the awesome dishes here: https://bit.ly/3S04Oqp ”
