We had KBBQ for two and it was a perfect amount of food (meat, seafood, apps, soup and desert). Everything was really tasty and flavorful. Maybe include a little less veggies to decorate meat/seafood (it was hard to separate them) and include a bit more meat/seafood.
Very friendly service. We felt very welcomed. Would definitely come back to try out other dishes.

The warm, inviting atmosphere and the genuine kindness of the staff created a dining experience reminiscent of eating in my own home.
The food itself was exceptional. Everything tasted homemade, from the perfectly pickled radish to the flavorful side dishes that complemented the main course beautifully. Each dish was crafted with care, showcasing authentic flavors and ingredients that transported me to another place.
Beyond the food, the staff played a significant role in our positive experience. Their hospitality was second to none, making us feel not just welcomed but genuinely cared for throughout our meal.

This place was fantastic for K-BBQ. I went here recently with my partner for our first time trying K-BBQ and our experience was amazing. The service was excellent and the quality of the food was beyond expectations. We did not unfortunately make a reservation, so we did have a 45 minute wait, so I would recommend calling ahead if you plan on dining here. The prices also seem to range between 30-50 dollars depending on what you get during dinner, but the quality and portions absolutely match this well. We were both stuffed after our meals and very satisfied! They even brought us plenty of delicious sides and ice cream for dessert, all included in the price. We had ordered the marinated thin steak and some of the tenderloin. The staff had even come over to give us some tips on how to properly BBQ and eat everything together. Absolutely recommend.
A pretty good kbbq place with a weird interior design lol. The bibimbap is my favorite also really like the fried egg shrimp appetizer. As of the bbq part, the beef tongue was pretty good, but I have had better Berkshire pork belly. They don’t have as many choices of side dishes as a lot of other Korean places but offer ice cream for desert. And the price is a bit higher compared to other kbbq places I have frequented. But I still will come back to try other dishes and bbq items.
We usually frequent another family-style Korean restaurant in Schaumburg - which we've loved over the years! Wanted to try something new for a change.
Ambience is very cozy - booths (instead of an open space) with traditional touches!
Food is DELICIOUS - let's get that out of the way!
Some observations:
* Salad/sides - tasty, free refills, 5 choices
* Bulgogi and pork dish - lots of veggies used as fillers. My kids are 'carnivores' and as such don't eat any veggies. They see meat and attack! The amount of meat we get in each plate is very less.
* They should have an option without veggies. We ended up buying 4 plates of bulgogi and 2 plates of pork - just for 3 adults and 2 young kids. One of them had miso soup and I had the bibimbap! Price is reasonable but with volume of less meat, it adds up.
* They don't have individual miso soup bowls for kids. It's a large bowl with greens already in it. My kids HATE greens.
* Wish there was a easy way to call the waiters/waitresses - no call button and with only 1 person speaking in English, you are at the mercy of that person crossing you or the other waiters passing the message! This also impacts how quickly they could bring things. For ex. we asked for the lettuce and miso paste at the beginning but got it towards the end!
* Dessert was a nice suprising touch and we all loved it!
Will definitely go back there...now that I know their menu and system better.

A great Korean spot in the area, decent food and excellent service, the waitress was super nice to our toddler, we tried some Korean soups but will definitely try barbecue next time
We had an excellent authentic Kbbq experience & we were pleasantly surprised by the hospitality as well as the food at this place. We are definitely coming back to this place when we visit Chicago.
I first off have to say the extreme family like atmosphere, authentic feel, and kindness of the staff made me feel like I was eating in my own house. The food was excellent and their grill to cook the meats on worked without fail and was able to cook veggies outside of the direct heat of the fire, which provided for a more efficient cook. The side dishes were delicious especially the pickled radish. You can tell it’s all homemade. Overall our experience with the food and especially the staff were a home run 10/10 score for us.
