I have been to yogi several times and I usually get the curry with chicken which is yummy but personally I would prefer if the chicken didn't have batter on it but it's still good. Overall, it's good food and the other options I've gotten were okay as well. I got the bulgogi fried rice this time and the flavor was not amazing but it tastes like bulgogi fried rice. You can get radish kimchi on the side if you ask but they don't just give it out anymore. My friends also like the seafood soondubu and boodae jjigae. There's also a water dispenser and to-go containers across the cashier. Sometimes it feels like the food takes a while but it can get busy in there so it makes sense. It's a nice place to get food with your friends if there's seats/not too full.

Atmosphere is amazing and calming, staff are extremely kind and taught me how to use the table buzzers, and the Korean fried chicken here is the best I've ever had. The Lego decorations are very charming, and me and my friends had an amazing time. 10/10, one of my favorite restaurants

I come here pretty often whenever I'm craving Korean food. I either get the jajangmyeon, soon dubu, or the friend chicken. It's always fresh and food always hits. You have to ask for kimchi when you go get your food now. The atmosphere is great. I'm always in awe at the different legos and decorations in here.

I am a very good tempered customer. But this experience at yogi really made me very disappointed. I waited in the store for a full half hour and all I got in return was a comment that they were out of chicken curry. What's even more irritating is that they told me there is no compensation, I can only order a new meal or get a refund. It's hard to imagine that this is the kind of solution a normal business can offer. It was as if the fault was not theirs but mine. The only thing I can do is that I will never come back.

Poor service and saying the f word (in korean) to customer and thought they don't understand what it means. I can't believe such a rude behavior and would like to know if this is a culture of this restaurant or it's just the server is lack of education.

A little loud, and service can be slow at times, but food comes out quickly and is always hot. I think there a better places on campus to get Korean with similarly reasonable prices. I got the bugolgi fried rice which was standard, pretty plain, but satisfying with a fried egg on top. I'd probably recommend their kimchi jiggae more.

I don't understand why this place doesn't have a higher rating. The food here was so good, and the portions were big! I got the 순두부 찌개 (soft tofu soup) with beef, and my friend got the 떡 만두국 (rice cake and dumpling beef soup). My soup was just the right level of spicy, and it was piping hot as it should be. My friend also enjoyed her soup with rice cakes that were cooked well. It was the perfect way to warm up on a cold, rainy day. The atmosphere is nice, and I think the Lego sets displayed around the restaurant were super cool. I'm happy I finally found a Korean restaurant on campus that isn't super Americanized. I will definitely be coming back again. :)
i really liked this place! was brought here by some friends who go to uiuc and was suprised by the amount of flavor and large portion sizes available here. really liked the bulgogi fried rice as well as the glass beef noodles. highly recommend.

The waiters here are crazy and will slam the door like crazy when you are using the bathroom, trying to kick you out. There is no courtesy to the customers, the front desk is arrogant, and after giving a rational response to the waiter's rude behavior, the front desk has no apology attitude. I really think the staff here needs some professional training, and if you don't want to be so angry to cause you feel disgusted, I suggest staying away from this restaurant. By the way, next time you should directly call the 911 if they slam the door again
