I had oyster soondubu with regular spicy which was extremely tasty. Side dishes served with were also very Korean. Attentive service made my visit a worthwhile. I am wondering if there is a better soondubu place in Chicago than Chodang.

My entree combo meal package, which included Korean barbecue and tofu soup, arrived scorching hot. The beef short ribs had a subtle sweetness and were flavorfully seasoned. It was cooked to perfection; the meat retained its juicy texture and was tender. The ribs go really well with the seafood tofu soup. The soup has a pleasant spice touch and is rich and savory. Silky tofu, clam, and headless shrimp made comprised the soup's ingredients. It's less, but because it was fantastic, it doesn't really worry me.
Great restaurant for soft tofu stew! I had the combo meal of seafood/beef tofu and beef. The stew was packed with flavor and was delicious while not being too spicy. You can also select between white rice and various (healthier) types of rice - I got the brown rice and it was excellent. The atmosphere is relaxing, and the service is really good. I recommend checking it out!
Family friendly, Friendly staffs with average service, edamame was offered once seated, but sever never check on us once the foods arrived on our table . Our little one loves fried dumplings and Chodang ribs, ribs are flavorful and tender, beef tofu stew with Udon noodles with great flavor, great for this chilly weather. Hubby enjoys his seafood and beef tofu stew with Steamed rice on the side .
I usually don't rate 5 stars unless something really stood out. I did so today because I just had a humbling experience I'd like to share. It's about 2 o'clock and I walked in while the staff was having lunch. Fast forward... I watched as one of the kitchen workers was leaving. She and the other staff members seemed to have a bit of a language barier, yet she was greeted by everyone so genuinely that it made me want to work there. I also realize that I, too, was treated like they wanted me there, not only as a one and done customer. The food was not a 5, but still one of the best Korean food I've had.
Compliments to the owner and the managers that run this place! You sure know how to treat human beings.
