Oh so satisfying dish from K-Kitchen at Chicago’s awesome French Market (awesomely open on Saturday). I ordered the Hot Tofu Soup (with pork) and it is warming, savory and just the right level of savory spice 😍

Had the popcorn chicken. Great value, gochujang sauce not so spicy, chicken stayed hot and crispy until I finished the meal.

I don't usually leave reviews, but I was SO impressed with K-Kitchen. I had some time to kill before my train so I picked up some veggie fried rice with fried chicken. It took a while for them to make it, but it was so, so good--and it was fresh and hot!

Absolutely recommend, but factor in the time it'll take to make your food. It'll be worth it, but it's not something you grab 5 minutes before you get on the train or bus.

The food is good but the service is too slow for a lunch. I wouldn’t spend 25 mins to wait for the lunch again. They really need to do something about it.

Located in the French market, this Korean restaurant makes simple meals. I highly suggest getting their bibimbap bowl and sweet potato fries with honey. These are both really good dishes and are pretty quick to come out.Service is very OK. If you order a water on a separate transaction, they will not give that to you ahead of time until your full meal is ready.Atmosphere is nice as it is in a large food court.

Was thrilled to try out the croffle (waffle croissant) and was disappointed when it came out overly crispy (to the point of it almost being burned). I only ate the inside since the outside tasted a bit burned. Was really hoping it would meet the high expectations I had for it. May need to come back and ask them to only cook it until it's nice and soft. That said, the other food looks quite good and I hope I can come back and try the other dishes.

I take it the Chicken Pan Fried Udon is gone from the menu, which is such a shame as it was literally the best food in the city. It's a shame I can't get it again. Maybe post the recipe so I can make it at home myself? lol please?

Very authentic Korean cuisine place in Chicago. To be honest, around downtown area in Chicago, this is the ONLY authentic Asian place (esp. Korean food) that you can get. To second every comment in these positive reviews, the quality of food was extraordinary, and the owner of the place is so nice and welcoming. (She even offered me to have a free soup, because I was walking all the way in the snow storm weather and was frozen from the weather. What an incredibly nice generosity in this modern world!)✅️ Seating: You can seat in the nice area with the food, since there is a plenty of nice seats area next to the place. Also, I saw many locals order take out as well for lunch.✅️ How to find this place: To get to this restaurant, enter "French Market" inside of the station(?), then go straight to the aisle the turn right. You will see "K Kitchen" sign there.According to many Korean reviews, this is a truly “delicious” Korean restaurant in Chicago. It's hard to find good Korean food in the downtown Chicago area, and this restaurant is the only one that caters to the Korean palate. There are many places to sit right in front, and the atmosphere is friendly and local, like a night market, which makes it even better. It seems like a restaurant that is leading the globalization of Korean food, and we hope it prospers even more!

Really low quality, cheap ingredients for how expensive it is. Get a dollar store bag of frozen veggies, some rice, and a generic sauce packet and you have what they serve

It was a satisfying meal for my husband, who is a Korean food fanatic, in 10 days of his independent trip to the U.S. - It would be a waste to eat at the food court - I plan to visit at least once a day while I'm in Chicago!!^^

It's the best Korean restaurant I've ever been to!
This is my first time leaving a Google review, but I'm leaving it because it's so delicious haha.

I often visit Korean restaurants overseas, and it was truly as delicious as ever!
Sometimes I felt like it was expensive when I bought Korean food, but this time, this quality at this price? He asked if this was true and it was so delicious that he and his companions even said they wanted to buy it if it was sold as a meal kit!!

There were other reviews saying that the bulgogi was delicious.
Bulgogi is a must!! You have to try it haha. You can trust the combination of bulgogi + soft tofu stew haha.

I plan to go to Chicago often in the future, and I definitely want to stop by here. The food was so clean and nice! May your boss prosper!

It may seem like it's full of praise, but it's a genuine reaction. Oh, but it's located in a food court inside a mall, so it's an honest review that people who are looking for a Korean restaurant with a good atmosphere should take note of!

First off, i dont leave reviews ever, but I felt i should leave one for K-Kitchen. The staff is AMAZING. Hanna & Chuy always have a smile on their faces, and you can tell they love what they do. They've gone above and beyond to make sure the food is on par and the customer is happy. I always get the Korean Popcorn Chicken w/ honey butter and it's never disappointed me. It's an easy go-to for sure. I also normally get a side of gochujang sauce as well & they always make sure they include it even when I forget to ask for it. I can't stress enough how awesome they are at K-kitchen and how much I suggest you go try the food there if you haven't before! 10/10 def recommended.
