Best Korean restaurant in Chicago! We celebrated our friend’s birthday. It is a great place to hang out and enjoy the food. The service is great and the restaurant is very clean. The location is easy to find. We definitely will come back.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Best Korean restaurant in Chicago! We celebrated our friend’s birthday. It is a great place to hang out and enjoy the food. The service is great and the restaurant is very clean. The location is easy to find. We definitely will come back.
Lunch Special: $9.99 — Highly Recommended We were in Chicago because of my daughter, and I noticed a Korean restaurant nearby. After reading the reviews, which were very positive, we decided to stop by for lunch. I originally went in planning to order samgyetang, but when I saw the lunch special—seolleongtang for $9.99—I couldn’t pass it up. I ordered the seolleongtang for dine-in and got the samgyetang to go. It was a cold day, and maybe that made it even better, but the food was absolutely delicious. The broth was especially amazing—rich, comforting, and full of flavor. I enjoyed it so much that my bowl was completely empty by the end! Highly recommended, and I will definitely visit again the next time I’m in Chicago.

We came here on a whim because we really wanted authentic Korean food on a gloomy day. The atmosphere is so open and bright and service was quick and friendly! Everything we ordered was soooo gooood! The banchan were all fresh and delicious and I HIGHLY recommend the signature samgyetang and the seafood pancake!
