Cozy Korean restaurant. Big House in Korean means something like older relative's house. The menu has items you would find at family gatherings. Looking forward to coming back.

Why is the person who answers the phone so rude?So far, I've never had a problem while ordering over the phone, but you didn't tell the customer, isn't this going to happen? What should I do? Are you going to fight?When I went to pick him up, he kept asking me if this was my first time doing catering and asking me to fight haha.Train the child who answers the phone properly.

There was not much to praise about the interior. The furnishings are plain and simple. The furniture is clean and well-maintained. It also makes me feel at ease especially first time coming here.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to adjust my original entree order of their yook gae jang to bool go gi dup bob. The thin, tender slices of beef were combined with mushrooms, scallions, and white onions. Its flavor is weak, but its texture is perfect. Luckily, a complimentary tiny side dish was included to go with the meal. I liked that it gave the bland beef more taste. Since the side dishes are provided at no cost, feel free to ask for a refill. It came with a mildly flavored soup on the side to wash it down.

The food was served hot at my table, which I appreciated, and the service was prompt. Although they could do better at paying attention, the personnel was polite. Although the food is average, the price is affordable. I hope to return and sample more of their dishes. It doesn't seem like the food I ordered did justice and that’s why I want to give them a second chance. Thank you for the meal.

I stopped by this place a few times when I went to Chicago. The taste becomes increasingly dull. This means that localization is taking place.

There is so little beef in bibimbop you will feel dizzy after eating because you are lacking protein. They raised bulgogi price from$15 to like $23 . That is crazy . Too high price compared to so little amount of food

As a korean who grew up on great home-cooked and restaurant Korean food, I love this place. The staff are attentive. The food is well seasoned and delicious.

Humble facade but the food is quite good. Reasonable prices and great quality. Worth the trip.

Really tasty! The prices aren't cheap but very reasonable for what they give you. Friendly server and glad to have descriptions on the menu. Great hot tea and kimchi with the meal as well. Will be back
