Korean/Mexican mash-up, most delicious, unique burritos and tacos I’ve ever had. We had a pork burrito and a taco sampler (1 pork, 1 chicken, 1 steak), pork taco was the best. Sweet and spicy, not too much of either. Trying to figure out where the delicious flavor in each bite comes from but you can’t because it’s such an awesome combination. All of the menu options come with either pork, chicken or tofu for your protein, you can add bulgogi steak for $2 or $3 depending on which item you choose. It’s a simple menu, 7 main choices and they do have about 8 different sides. Clean bathrooms, free water cups, friendly staff, really nice ambiance for a little place, nice decoration (paintings, old boomboxes, old ceiling tiles) and lighting. Very highly recommend. Zero complaints. The prices are fair for what you get too, especially downtown. I barely ever write food reviews either but this place earned it.

Pork tacos were 🔥 Flavor profile on point and that sauce did what it needed to do. Cute vibe, fast service, and definitely a repeat every time I’m in Chicago. Staff takes a minute to warm up, but once they do, the experience gets better. Worth it.

Best burrito in the city. If I were on Death Row, this is what I’d want for my final meal. Vibes are great and the music playing is always top notch. Love this spot.

Seoul Taco is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner David and GM Virginia is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing Korean Mex fusion with tacos incorporated into it. Definitely come back. 10/10.

Seoul Taco is a beautiful venue with quick, efficient service. I liked the fast-casual style, and the staff were very friendly and accommodating with sauces, even though they didn’t have habanero. The other salsa options were good.
The tacos and kimchi were a bit underwhelming for the price, but the food was still okay. It feels more like a spot you go to for the aesthetic and quick grab-and-go experience rather than standout food. Overall, I loved the interior style and the concept.

Came here at 330 am on a Saturday sober as a judge after a long late flight The place closes at 4 The guy behind the counter takes the order doesn’t say anything until giving us our food when we ask for the cutlery he says we are closed you have to eat out I’m exhausted and not interested in eating cold food when I reach home finally so opted to sit and eat with my hands The guy is behind the counter throwing pans cursing us out to his co workers We finished our meal and left at 345 fifteen minutes before the stated close time The guy working here probably deals with drunk people all night but needs to understand not everyone is the same just drunkard you can abuse. Food didn’t justify the attitude and eating kimchi with my hand cause some jerk wanted to leave work early is insane

I had been coming here since they opened this location almost ten years. But I was back in the area after not stopping by since pre pandemic. I only get the burritos here, and they're great. Some people prefer less or no rice in their burrito, and i actually think the rice is a strength of the Seoul Taco burrito. It's mixed with gochujang or other Korean flavors, and i could eat a whole bowl of it if the restaurant has such an offering. The mixed rice is so flavorful that i didn't really care what the paired protein is. Glad to see ST still doing it's thing after all these years.

Seoul Taco is great. I had the 3 taco meal and got one steak, one pork, and one chicken taco. They were delicious. The atmosphere is laid back, the staff is friendly, and the service was quick. Highly recommend!

I like the concept and flavor combination but the hygiene is questionable. Places smells like it needs a good cleaning. Had stomach issues after eating here. Also food was too salty.

To be honest, the food was too salty… i ordered spicy pork taco and bulgogi taco. I don’t recommend this.
This is some of the worst fusion tacos I’ve had. I ordered the 3 seoul tacos sampler, the korean fried chicken, and the elote. The tacos were almost inedible. It was HEAVILY seasoned and overly salty for tacos. I could see how it would taste well with rice or something to tone down the flavors. However, in just the taco, the marinade and sauces were overwhelming. The korean fried chicken was just OK. I had better chicken at other korean restaurants. Some of the pieces were just batter and not chicken though. The elote was probably the worst. It was all cheese and sauce with no corn, all salt. My partner and I got a stomach ache afterwards. Personally, I would not return to this restaurant.

Amazing food with huge portions!! When they’re busy they have a kiosk which was so so smart.
