Big Joy - Marietta

We were surprised and thought we were going to the Korean restaurant. the place is now Brazilian eating. we stayed anyway and ordered a lunch. we thought it was really good. we ordered the salmon with a mango sauce and a tasty steak with a fried egg above. the fries, drilling and tears were also good

Stone pot bibimbap is great. Letting it sit for a minute really gets that rice nice and crispy. Give it a shot!

Delicious Korean food! I had the hot pot rice bowl with beef and it came with miso soup and kimchi. I have not tried the Mexican side of their fusion yet.

I 'm still not sure how I feel about this place... let 's dive in. My buddy Gustavo was in town and wanted to have some lunch so we figured let 's go to Marietta... they have a little bit of everything . I wanted some Korean so I suggested BIG JOY, their menu looks delicious! When I arrived Gustavo was already there and he asked you look lost... you OK? , I said yes... but I thought we were about to eat Korean food... this looks... Brazilian? . Sure enough, Big Joy used to be a Korean location but got taken over by this Brazilian restaurant and I guess they didn 't bother with changing the name or much of the inside, just their menu. We are already there, might as well check out this place. I didn 't recognize much on their menu so I asked for a salmon and Gustavo asked for a steak. We both wanted appetizers so we ordered these things that said BRAZILIAN BITES, I got chicken and beef while Gustavo ordered the cheese. The language barrier was difficult, and that 's coming from two guys that speak Spanish!! We had a hard time understanding our waitress and she had a hard time understanding us but we got through it. Gustavo never got his cheese bites but he didn 't get charged for them either and we were fine with this because the chicken and beef were plenty. Think of like a delicious hush puppy except they are filled with a tasty beef or chicken, that 's what these were. Fried very well and paired well with the spicy/fruity tasting sauce they came with. Gustavo 's steak and eggs looked amazing and for $13 he said he would consider coming back for it. I think he got 3 pieces of steak that were cooked well and marinated perfectly. The rice and beans were a good compliment to the steak along with the fried egg. I ordered the Salmon which caught my eye because it said it came in a passion fruit sauce and passion fruit juice is one of my favorite drinks. Although you get more for your money with the steak the salmon with rice and black beaks and broccoli was delicious!! That passion fruit sauce went perfectly with the salmon, rice and black beans. I could have done away without the broccoli as it was just steamed, nothing special. As we were finishing up and I start looking around, I noticed I didn 't see a health score... so I ask my waitress what is your health score rating? but she didn 't understand me after a few attempts so she said boss pointed at the kitchen and walked away. She came back with a gentlemen who asked how he could help me, so I said just wondering what your health score is , which he replied health score? . I said yes, what is your health score? .... he finally said no health score here and started walking away.... OKEY DOKEY... I thought I enjoyed your meal very much, everything was delicious but I hope I don 't get sick of this.... . My question would be, would you go back to a location that was delicious but has no health score or any knowledge of what a health score is? I 'm tempted to say yes... yes I would because their food was great, but I don 't think I could. Let me know if you stop by this location and try them out!! If they have a health score please let me know so I can pay them a visit again. EDIT: Their salad was NASTY... the lettuce tasted nasty and whatever was in it was nasty... never again!!

The food was okay, but the experience was horrible. They barely spoke English at a restaurant clearly marketed toward the typical American. The wait was ridiculous. It was like they've never served more than 3 tables before. My friend asked for a bubble tea. He had to ask for it again twice. He eventually went to get a refund and the cashier pretended to have no idea what he was talking about. I don't understand how this place has such a high rating.
