Sogongdong Lagrange — Restaurant in LaGrange

This place falls really short of all the Sogongdong restaurants I've been to. Not a very welcoming place at all and staff is rude. I came in with my daughter and fiancé and they treated me like I did not know anything about Korean culture or foods they eat..when in fact I am part Korean and take after my Korean side more. We were treated poorly unlike the full Koreans that were there. My rice arrived after my side dishes, and I was ready to open to eat a little with my kimchee since I was super hungry and the lady told me I was NOT allowed to eat my rice and had to wait. Just who the hell do you think you are talking to?.. I already know what she is getting at..let the rice burn and pour Korean water on the bottom for rice water...but I'm a customer, and if I don't want to do that, then I don't have to. It rubbed me the wrong way.

The lady with short hair didn't even know what was in the haemuel bibimbap and couldn't answer a single question on the menu.

While I was eating there was a foul taste, but kept eating. At the end I puked so much and was so sick out both ends, the 3 hour ride home was miserable.

Only nice lady was the long curly hair lady. She made some Korean tea that's mixed with Korean water. Reminded me when my mom use to make...

Found legit Korean food in little ol Lagrange GA y'all 😁😁 !! Yasss! Now, admittedly I'm horrible with chopsticks, but I do try. We went not knowing what to expect and we were pleasantly happy when they brought out the kimchi dishes. I ordered the tofu stew with a seafood option. It comes with whole shrimp (head on) and mussels. They kindly prepared it with a lower heat level for my newbie palate. I've always wanted to eat legit Korean food and finally have a good place to go to. Obviously, I mean I forgot to snap photos of the entrees because I was so excited. We will certainly be making this a normal spot in our rotation. I have some learning to do on how best to eat the food in the proper way, I know there's a system to it. They all serve Katsu and Ramen. If you love this style of cooking and you've not been then you are missing out. If you don't normally go for it, step outside of your comfort zone and go. You'll be...

I came in here after being ignored at another Korean restaurant that was closer to my hotel. Although it was rainy and on the other side of town during rush hour, I really wanted Korean food. After seeing how busy they were I knew it was nothing but God that led me here.

I placed a togo order with the guy at the front counter and went to the grocery store while it was being prepared. When I got back my food was ready and I could already tell it was a lot, more than I could possibly eat in one sitting—so imagine my surprise when a lady chased me out the store with ANOTHER BAG full of banchan, salad, and various other sides 😵

Not only was the food copious, it was fresh and delicious! So I’ll definitely be back next time...
