I don’t know why others can eat after 6:30 but I cannot

A true hidden gem for comforting, home-style Korean food, tucked inside Joong Boo Market and reminiscent of a classic Korean food stall. It’s no-frills, just hearty dishes with great quality at an excellent value. We especially loved the codfish soup and tteokbokki. It’s always a treat to grab some groceries and enjoy a quick bite at the snack corner.

Food is ok, it's very affordable but the service just sucks sometimes and sometimes not worth the trouble. There's a sign above the register that says it's open til 7pm and another sign at the counter that says it's closed at 630pm, it's confusing. I've definitely have ordered there past 630pm. There's not much consistency to the service. The food I've gotten is good for the price, but it's not going out of your way for. I'll probably think twice before I go again.

The food is tasty and very filling! The area to eat is very small and crowded, though. Tables are good for 4 people or less. The wait time was not bad. We waited for our food for about 20 minutes. A good place to eat nearby would be the NEIU El Centro campus. You do not need to be a student to enter and use their facilities! Also, please be kind to the workers they are literally old grandmas working hard ❤️

Decent food but be prepared to wait 30 min for takeout

Don't expect a mater di for service, it's a Korean restaurant in a store. Food is as home made and authentic as it gets.
As a native Korean, I won't call it authentic but still good and the vibe reminds me of my youth.
It's not bad if you think of half the price of the food as the emotional price of the plate. However, it was not a traditional Korean taste because it was based on soybean paste.

The sol lang tang was excellent. I prefer this to the food court in H mart downtown. It's more authentic and cheaper.
Food is nice but I didn’t find the place to sit down so I ate at the parking lotFried chicken & dumpling good enough for homesick Asians (portion huge enough for 2 people)

Such a great value! Cheap and good quality. I like the tofu soup $10 because it’s on sale this week (usually $12)
