15 Best Korean Restaurants near Lisle

“Stop by here after a stroll at the Morton Arboretum on a hot day! It’s a self-service small casual place with good quality food. No tipping required is awesome 👍😄We ordered Tanaka Box that came with fresh big sashimi and nigiri, the spicy tuna roll had a real kick which I love. The Volcano roll is baked and is done well. Bibimbap was on point, too. I would stop by again next time we come to the arboretum.“

“I came Lysle for staying overnight. And found this place where I can eat Korean food. The place was little running down, but the food wasn’t bad. I mean good and price is reasonable. I ordered a yukgaejang since I am by myself. Guess what they brought a small gigym (pan cake) for service. I was pleasantly surprised since it is hard to find this type of service in these days. The service was good I mean they are attentive to the customers. Overall, it was good!“

“We drive over an hour and love everything! Can’t wait to try something different every visit.“

“Delicious food! Friendly staff! It's one of my favorite kimchi places. Definitely recommend!“

“I could eat this every single day for the rest of my life! I’ve been really into the spam one and the ratio is great. When they take their time to make it crispy, it’s sooo good 10/10! However when it’s barely fried without the crispy edge, it starts to taste a bit raw (I know spam is cooked pork) 8.5/10.“

“What an excellent eating experience!! The waiter was friendly and seemed to anticipate our requests. It was my first time in a Korean restaurant and I was glad that my son accompanied me and explained the various foods and choices. It was SO comfortable and enjoyable! The food was AMAZING! I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking for an exceptional eating experience!!“

“Best and very rare Chinese Halal restaurant in the area.“

“The food court was very busy during dinner hours but the food was yummy and came out in a timely manner. The cashier was not Korean but I didn’t know and kept talking to her in Korean lol. We had to check our order numbers just in case after we found out she was not Korean.

The owner came out while we were ordering and was super friendly and helped us get our food to the table, even though she didn’t have to.

Unlike some of the other places in this location, they give you actual silverware (in my case, goldware) and it was a lot nicer experience than trying to eat your soup with one of those flimsy plastic spoons. The chopsticks were still the wooden ones though.

I had the galbitang and it was good. Meat was falling off the bones literally, and the broth was yummy. Only caveat was the noodles - they were overcooked.

Comes with 3 barchan items - in my case, soybean sprouts, kimchi and cucumber kimchi.

At $20 per dish in a food court, I’d say it’s pretty steep. Still, I’d come back. Maybe for the Sul-lung-tang (cheaper but similar) next time.“

“We have been coming here since the place opened. One thing they have is tire consistency. Every time the chicken is on point and perfectly done. The snow chicken is our go to, comes with an amazing sauce and a bucket of onions. Try at your own risk, you will get hooked. Bussin!“

“Have had both regular and boneless. Forget Wing stop and Buffalo Wild Wings. DAK DAK is the real deal. Huge meaty wings. You have to try these and you won't go anywhere else. On top of all that, it's fun to say DAK DAK“

“First time there and it was a treat. The interior of restaurant was well done and the atmosphere was very good. Friendly staff and great service. Prices were reasonable. The food was top notch. Try the Bulgogi which was great. They give you good portions for the price. Highly recommend the restaurant and I plan on being a regular.“

“The fried chicken and seafood udon noodle we ordered were delicious! Service and atmosphere were great too! BellaBot was the highlight of the night serenading a nearby table with a happy birthday song. Highly recommended for anyone.“

“If you enjoyed a savory taste with the right amount of ingredients- you really have to try this place, it’s just a good hall inside Hmart, noisy and busy but the tasty dishes will make it worth it. Shrimp dish was a little pricey for the quantity but everything else was reasonably priced. My fav jajangmyeon place for sure! The tangsuyuk batter was so lite and chewy- so satisfying.“

“I had an absolutely delicious meal at this restaurant! The chicken was incredibly crunchy and yummy—I honestly couldn't get enough of it. The bao buns with pork belly were out of this world; a true standout dish. To top it off, the bulgogi fries were also amazing.
The portions were very generous, the staff was exceptionally friendly, and they took the time to explain the menu. With prices ranging from $10 to $20 per item, the cost was quite reasonable for the quality and quantity.
I highly suggest you give this place a try! I can't wait to go back and explore more of the menu, but I already know the chicken is a must-order again.“

“BB.Q has some of the crispiest, crunchiest, juiciest chicken I've had. Top notch. Dine in when you can for a fresher experience, but carry out isn't a bad option either. Incredible that they can slather these things in sauce and they are still crispy and delicious.“
