“Dancen is the kind of Chicago restaurant where the food, atmosphere, and experience all come together. Rather than a polished, upscale Korean dining room, Dancen embraces the lively character of a traditional Korean drinking spot, with an intimate setting, sizzling grilled dishes, bold flavors, and an energetic late night vibe. The fiery buldak fire chicken topped with melted cheese, paired with an assortment of grilled skewers, is an ideal introduction to what makes this place special. In one sentence: Dancen is a quintessential Lincoln Square Korean pub where flame charred fire chicken, smoky grilled skewers, bold Korean flavors, and late night energy create an experience that feels authentic, exciting, and distinctly Chicago.“

I had a wonderful experience at CM Chicken Kimball! The gentleman who helped me was incredibly kind and welcoming. He greeted me with a huge smile, was extremely respectful throughout my visit, and even walked me out the door as he herded me my order and thanking me.I highly appreciate that level of genuine hospitality.
As for the food, it was outstanding! I ordered the wings with Korean sauce, as well as the wings with the white cream and onions. Both flavors were absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly. I will definitely be coming back here. Highly recommended!“

“Had a fantastic meal at Seoul Ave in Oak Park. We ordered the Beef Short Rib, Rose Tteokbokki, Cheese Donkatsu, and Kimchi Pancake, and every single dish was outstanding.

The Beef Short Rib was tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The Rose Tteokbokki had a rich, creamy sauce with just the right amount of spice. The Cheese Donkatsu was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and filled with plenty of melted cheese. The Kimchi Pancake was packed with flavor, crispy around the edges, and one of the best I’ve had.

Beyond the food, the service was warm, attentive, and welcoming throughout the entire meal. The restaurant delivers an authentic Korean dining experience with excellent quality and generous portions.

If you’re in Oak Park, this place is absolutely not to be missed. Highly recommended!“
