Stopped in for lunch. Had the Danji Fried Half Chicken with a side of fried rice and hubby had to have the waffles 🧇. Waffles were warm and fluffy and had just the right amount of syrup. The Fried Rice was awesome 👌🏼 👏🏼. The chicken was perfectly fried. Not greasy just juicy and crunchy. We didn't feel so heavy after that we were able to continue our grocery shopping.
The first thing you need to be aware when coming here is that the food is delicious but expensive, and the portions are huge! Other reviews say that you share a plate with someone, that’s true. Me and my husband shared the Korean Chicken BBQ fried rice and we felt it was perfect for both. We spend $71 for 4 people, drinking just one tea and one beer, the rest was their courtesy water, so I believe it could have been $80 or more if we all had drinks. Other than that, we loved this and we would come back specially for their kimbob because they are delicious and affordable comparing the rest of the plates. It’s a must try restaurant if you love Korean food, the kimchi fried rice was super super hot 🥵 beware! My daughter couldn’t eat it. Food is spicy here.
They used to be a full service dine-in restaurant, then the pandemic happened. Service suffered here quite a bit to the point I didn't want to come back. I took a chance again and now you order from the counter. They made a good business decision as everything is back to normal and food quality remains exceptional.
All I can say is I was definitely not disappointed and it was well worth the drive. I'm definitely coming back to try other things but the dumpling ramen and on rice ton is full of flavor. Like something out of an anime no lie.
I've been to DANJI in Buford several times now... Every dish I've ordered has been great EXCEPT for their actual fried chicken plate with potatoes... Not a fan and very hard to eat. My favorite dish they have is their OMURICE, you can get it with whatever protein you'd like but I typically get the beef bulgogi or the first picture you see here, the TON KATSU OMURICE. You basically get whatever delicious protein you want with fried rice that is covered with a thin layer of eggs (kind of like an omelette) with a side of cream corn and a salad. Their BULGOGI FRIES are definitely a favorite (enough to share with 4 people) and their fried dumplings are very tasty. They have these RICE BALLS which I'm a huge fan of, I ask for mine fried TUNA. Think sushi but rolled up into a ball with sauce🤤 You can get regular sushi if you'd like as well. Their ramen is DELICIOUS but I made the mistake of ordering DANJI RAMEN with chicken because it was WAY too spicy for me... It had two little 🌶️ and their max on their menu is 4 🌶️, I figured I'd be fine... NOPE 😂 I still finished it but I suffered the entire way through. Food always comes out quick and the staff is friendly. Some nights I grab my own refills and some nights they come and refill your drinks for you, I don't mind either way.
Danji is a fun spot because they are in the middle of busy Buford right around from the Mall of Georgia but they don't get too ridiculously busy. Good food at reasonable prices with spacious tables for big groups makes this a fun stop for any occasion. If you go just be careful with your spicy level, don't be fooled!!! 😅 This is one of my go to spots now 😎

First time in Danji restaurant and YOU have to go!
It’s the greatest place with amazing food. The Tonkatsu and Omurice is to die for. We ate fishcake Udon, soy chicken, Tteok-bokki, kimbap with beer. Everything tasted a great.
The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience.
It was my first visit here, and we ordered ramen, udon, kimbob and donkatsu. Everything was good, and we especially liked kimbob and ramen. Very generous amount of food as well! Will recommend to friends too!
We ordered omurice, ton katsu combo menu, and danji kimbap and squid kimbap. The foods were more than enough to keep us full, and the ton katsu was thick and soft that we all enjoyed it so much. I packed omurice and ton katsu for my son, and he very much enjoyed the meal, he said that the eggs on the omurice were soft and the fried rice was delicious. Of course, ton katsu combo was the best!
