Ssyal - Chicago Korean Restaurant offers deep, traditional Korean flavors that leave customers wanting more. With friendly service and a variety of dishes like veggie tofu stew and spicy squid stir fry, this restaurant provides a truly special dining experience. The banchan, including unique options like eggplant in sesame, adds an interesting twist to the meal. The restaurant is also known for its outstanding herbal Cornish hen soup, especially the samgyetang, which is described as warm, tender, and flavorful, feeling like a comforting hug. Many diners praise the samgyetang for its deep, rich flavor and the delicate taste that allows ingredients like jujube, garlic, and ginseng to shine. The spicy chicken galbi and soondubuchigae are also highly praised for their taste and quality. Food generally arrives quickly, often in less than 15 minutes, and the owners are attentive and kind. While the prices are on the higher side for a casual place, the quality and flavors make it well worth the visit.
