Loved this place! Hidden gem. The name confused me at first but once I stepped inside it was awesome. Instant ramen bar, Korean street food made to order,Part Korean convenience store and Asian market, vape if your into that. Lottery and casino machines in the back. Section of very cute clothes totally affordable. I came for ramen and tteok bokki. The Ramen idea was so cool. For 10 bucks I got to pick a classic Korean instant Ramen package of my choice and add a fresh egg , rice, cakes, fish cakes or other add ons. They then mix the Ramen and add-ons together and you could eat it there or take it to go. They also have dumplings. My absolute favorite was the Korean street food tteok bokki. It’s kind of like a thick rice canes in a very tasty sauce. It’s so addictive. You just have to try it. Included in the $10 is also a pouch drink and they give you an ice cup with ice. I had a great coffee drink. When I was done and totally satiated I bought a couple of really cute dresses that were about 20 bucks each and then bought some Ramen to go, seaweed and some great frozen items. I got a great beef fried rice, dumplings, rice cakes and kimchi fried rice. The people there were so nice and helpful. I was just super excited for this place to come up. Get some quick tasty Ramen and some of the other food they make. I’m gonna make this my weekly spot and I...
Read moreThis is my cousin's store. When I visited Augusta last week for Thanksgiving, I went in thinking he had just opened up a small vape store. Let me tell you, as much as I can without family bias, this place has SO much. Aside from vapes and other related items, they've got trendy clothing, COAM games in the back, lottery soon to come, and don't even get me started on the food... my goodness the variety! From Korean ramen, kimchi, candy, snacks, drinks, ice cream, the list goes on. It's like a more convenient H-mart but you can hang out and enjoy your ramen/snacks thanks to those automated ramen cookers that prepare them perfectly within 3-5 minutes. I myself may have partaken in an embarassing amount of ramen and there may have been witnesses 😅. I have to say, visiting Beauty Smile was like going back to my childhood in Seoul Korea, to the source of my fondest of nostalgia: those convenience stores where kids like myself hung out after school jostling over arcade games, munching on chips and slurping on one too many ice cream. Heaven had competition! The owners, my cousin Bryan and his family, are so kind and welcoming, I implore everyone driving by to check it out sometime. They really do take care of everyone so well, you will find yourself coming back for more. Thanks for your hospitality Bryan, and I'll visit you guys again...
Read moreI give this place 5 stars because of the experience. It was really cool using the machines. We had some help to get started and was told were the sauces were. Being a foodie and all and dreaming of one day going to a Korean 7 eleven I really see some similarities. Most items here can be prepared here and you can warm them up or use the ramen machines. Which were so cool. I would suggest having more toppings as well as sauces. Maybe some fish sauce, sesame sauce, red chilli flakes , seaweed, Naruto coins. I think that's what it's called lol, green onions and soy sauce at least. We didn't see any of that. That would have sent our experience to another level. We did try some ramune drinks and some peach ice cream. This had to be the star of the show. It was shaped like a peach. So beautiful to look at. I didn't even want to eat it. All In all if you're looking for an experience...
