Local Stories

Today, we’d like to introduce you to Steve Ju. Steve was introduced to us by the brilliant and talented Melissa LeEllen.

Hi Steve, we’re so thrilled to have you sharing your story with us today. Maybe we can kick things off by having you introduce yourself to our readers? We’d love to have you go into your story and how you got to where you are today.
As the owner of BullsEye Burgers and Chicken, my journey began in 2021 when I retired and returned back to Flowery Branch, Georgia after years of being away owning restaurants in Virginia. The warm, welcoming people of Flowery Branch lingered in my memory, and I felt compelled to return.

Initially, retirement was my plan, but upon my arrival, I observed an abundance of eateries in the area but a noticeable lack of fresh options. Having cooked professionally since 1985, I decided to solve the problem by opening BullsEye Burgers and Chicken. I designed the kitchen and the layout for the 1,200-square-foot space, which was previously vacant.

Our open kitchen floor plan allows customers to watch their food being prepared. We offer five signature burgers, including the unique breakfast burger and the popular BullsEye burger with a double patty, double American cheese, three pieces of bacon, pickles, red onions, and our signature homemade sauce.

For chicken lovers, we have grilled or fried chicken sandwiches, and our famous wings that come in various flavors, including lemon pepper, Buffalo, and garlic parmesan.

Our regular customer, Stephanie Bautista, appreciates not just the homemade taste of our food but also the friendly environment we provide. I always emphasize that we “cook to order,” ensuring the highest quality and satisfaction for our customers. And that’s how we got to where we are today – a well-loved, fresh alternative in a sea of fast-food options.

Amid the pandemic, BullsEye Burger bravely embarked on its construction phase, filled with uncertainty about the future. Fast-forward to over a year later, and the restaurant boasts more than 200 five-star reviews, a collaboration with the innovative marketing firm Creative Global Entertainment, and is even considering franchising opportunities. The eatery has evolved into a beloved community hub, offering delicious food and exceptional customer service. Their straightforward motto, “We hit the spot every time!” perfectly encapsulates the essence of BullsEye Burger’s success.
