Le Gourmet has great burgers, french fries, and even better service. While the wait is slightly longer than Jimmy John's, for the same price you can have a delicious, hot, and fresh burger, fries, and drink combo.
AMAZING! Wish I lived closer to enjoy this food every day!
I travelled to South Korea for a month and this is the closest thing I have ate to tasting like the food I had there. Very good quality, good portion sizes. And the owners are super nice!

Le Gourmet Korean Restaurant, run by a Korean husband and wife, offers delicious Korean food in Iowa City. The dolsot bibimbap is a must-try, with flavorful gochujang sauce. The yukgaejang, tteok-bokki, and osambulgogi are also fantastic choices. The chef's consistent quality and friendly service make each visit enjoyable. The kimchi fried rice is a standout dish that should not be missed! Vegetarian options are available upon request, and the restaurant is kid-friendly, offering bentos. While their hours are limited, this cozy spot inside the mall is considered the best Korean restaurant in town, providing a delightful dining experience worth returning for. Customers praise the owners' kindness and friendly service, often remembering guests' names. The food is excellent and well paired with sides, with many trying new dishes each visit without disappointment. Although wait times can be longer during busy hours, ordering ahead online helps, and the staff works hard to serve customers quickly. The kimchi fried rice is especially praised, and the overall experience is highly appreciated by visitors who feel it fills a void left by other Korean spots in the area.
