Really delicious food, and plenty of it! I ordered the goat soup, which is a big bowl of soup to begin with, and it came with rice, kimchi, and a turnip(?). I was not a fan of the turnip, but the kimchi was delicious, and I really liked the rice and soup together. The vibe here is very much that of a food court inside a mall, because that's what it is. There are mall noises, at least two different kinds of music playing from different directions, shoppers walking by. You order, get your food at counter, and bring your tray back to the same counter when you're finished. The cashier at the counter is friendly and polite. Get the goat soup! You'll be glad you did!

I live far from Niles but I always come here whenever I am craving for some soup. They have the best soups I ever had here in the US. I always go for Tendon soup and Short Ribs soup. Always a thumbs up when it comes to taste and I always feel full afterwards. I always see the lady owner at the counter whenever I order so she's a fixture here. Me and my husband thought Assi Plaza closed since Google said it closed permanently. Good thing I did not surrender and googled for this specific restaurant hoping it relocated somewhere else. Lo and behold, they just changed the name from Assi Plaza to Park To Shop and when I called Korean Beef Soup's phone number, somebody answered and it was the owner and they are still open! So off we went again. Imma try the other soups next time I come back. This resto has the best soups I ever had. It doesn't disappoint the palate .

Best Korean ox tail and knee soup combo. With added probiotic kimchi on the sides . Ox tail soup is a known collagen rich soup and the ine they serve is delish! Service is brisk. You are given a round thingie that alarma when food is ready. Resto is located inside Korean Assi grocery store. Just the regular wiiden table and chair fast food ambience but with the homey comfort food. Can't neat that!

The Korean Beef Soup, aka 'Seoul Ga Ma Sot Sullungtang', is located inside the Assi supermarket as part of their food court vendors.Their menu offers their popular sullungtang, but they also have other soups, such as Yum So Tang (goat soup), Dak Gom Tang (chicken soup), Kkori Dogani Tang (ox tail and beef tendon soup), Gamja Tang (pork back bone soup), etc.We used to come here often when I was living in the area, and this place is the preferred choice for those who crave for ox tail soup. The soup is slightly creamy and filled with tons of sliced beef and tendons; I usually like my sullungtang a bit more creamier and thicker.A good option for those who are craving for hot broth during the fall/winter seasons.Plenty of parking in the grocery lot.+located inside Assi market+plenty of parking in shared lot

Gave this place a try because we were hungry after shopping at Assi. The owner recommended us to get spicy pork soup and beef soup. I'm pleasantly surprised and impressed. The soup is nicely flavorful and the portion is big. We love how the meat just fall of from the bones. Definitely will come back for more .

This vendor is located inside Assi mall at the food court. i had thought the mall was dying with all the new korean grocery stores popping up but it has recently revived and it gives me great joy! of all the korean groceries, i think Assi had the best food vendors! My usual go to is Lai Lai which has korean style chinese food. if you're looking for great korean soups check out 'Korean Beef Soup'... very original name I know. i usually get their oxtail soup which is incredibly flavorful and so hearty... makes me miss my mothers cooking. i have tried their chicken soups which are excellent and will have to try their super extensive menu of other korean stews and soups.highly recommend!!

If you want simple good korean soups, this place should be on your list. They offer most of the basics soups and their kimchi and radish sides are spot on. We came during an off dining time and they were still busy with a steady stream of customers that came in. Many uncles and aunties visited this booth so its got the community stamp of approval. We got the goat meat soup and Seoul lung tang. Both were tasty, had a perfect ratio of ingredients and came piping hot. Needless to say we left completely satisfied and would definitely come again.

absolutely amazing. our server nick was super great and helpful and the dinner was fantastic.
The place has the best gamjatang, beef cartilage soup and oxtail (and cartilage combo) soup I've had in the Chicagoland area. The soup is deep and flavorful, and I don't think they take shortcuts given they only specialize in slow-cooked stews. Portions are generous for the above. Underrated given it's in a food court.

I make a trip to assi mart on milwaukee ave to go to this place. It is in food court of big korean market called assi mart. Their gam ja tang is definitely my favorite. It is a must try.

It was so good, I was thunderstruck. What a wonderful surprise, instead of getting good food I received great food.

The best Korean soup place in The Chicago area. Authentic and full of favor. Their pork bone soup is outstanding but also try their oxtail soup for less heat.
