“Friendly staffs, Cozy and comfortable restaurant for family, couples, groups. Hot tea and water were offered once we seated Refreshing banchan were offered before our foods arrived, it doesn’t take long for our foods arrive. Crispy fried dumplings were good. Beef Raman noodles were not over cooked, The broth flavor was mild, but good. Beef bugogi was flavorful with rice on the side. Kimchee soup comes with noodles on the bottom side hot stone steamed rice along with the order. We all enjoyed our dishes. We get there right when they open. The place fills up quickly. Highly recommended.“

“This place is NUMBER ONE! Came to Illinois for a convention, was recommended this place by a few friends and holy cow, I'm not gonna be able to eat chicken from anywhere else for awhile! Their chicken is the literally best I ever had. Loved it so much, I made sure to get take out on my drive back home, 2x in 3 days, and I would have gone a third time had I not made prior plans! Do yourself a favor and TRY THIS CHICKEN!“
“This place was so good it was a little pricey but I understand why. The food and service was very good and it seemed very clean in there. I didn't expect for the ramen one to be so good but it was the best. Even the next day I heated it up in the microwave and it still tasted amazing.“
“Stopped in for a late dinner, good service and we were attended quickly. We had the boneless wings since they were out of the whole chicken and bone in wings. We tried soy garlic & spicy galbi and they were tasty! They were both crispy and good flavors.Food was great, only complaint is the restaurant was uncomfortably hot. My girlfriend and I decided to take the food home since it was so warm inside.“
“Went here with my boyfriend a few weeks back, definitely recommend fried rice and the Korean chicken wings!!Honestly think this place is more for young adults since they play more American r&b and pop music rather than Korean music.Tried their takoyaki and it was kinda hard, and the spicy wings were a bit dry, but overall good place to go with friends“
“We discovered this place tonight after reading Google reviews. It’s the best Korean BBQ I’ve had in years. The kimchi and Galbi were personal favorites. Our waitress was so attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. We had an amazing experience and will be back soon!“
“We usually frequent another family-style Korean restaurant in Schaumburg - which we've loved over the years! Wanted to try something new for a change.Ambience is very cozy - booths (instead of an open space) with traditional touches!Food is DELICIOUS - let's get that out of the way!Some observations:* Salad/sides - tasty, free refills, 5 choices* Bulgogi and pork dish - lots of veggies used as fillers. My kids are 'carnivores' and as such don't eat any veggies. They see meat and attack! The amount of meat we get in each plate is very less.* They should have an option without veggies. We ended up buying 4 plates of bulgogi and 2 plates of pork - just for 3 adults and 2 young kids. One of them had miso soup and I had the bibimbap! Price is reasonable but with volume of less meat, it adds up.* They don't have individual miso soup bowls for kids. It's a large bowl with greens already in it. My kids HATE greens.* Wish there was a easy way to call the waiters/waitresses - no call button and with only 1 person speaking in English, you are at the mercy of that person crossing you or the other waiters passing the message! This also impacts how quickly they could bring things. For ex. we asked for the lettuce and miso paste at the beginning but got it towards the end!* Dessert was a nice suprising touch and we all loved it!Will definitely go back there...now that I know their menu and system better.“
“Love the service here. The guy at the front is always cheerful and quick. The wings are amazing. My favorite is the sweet and spicy flavor. Good lunch specials. I got the seasoned fries as my side. They were too thin for me so I'll try the other fries next time.Two suggestions for the team: 1. if you guys can close the bag without using staples as it caught on to my finger while i was handling the bag and 2. I thought the strawberry dragonfruit refresher would have caffeine in it but it's just juice so perhaps not referring to it as a refresher would help the customers who were looking for a little pick me up. Other than that highly recommend this restaurant!“
“The best Korean restaurant in America I work as a driver and I drove all over America and ate in different Korean restaurants, this restaurant is the most ideal the best Korean restaurant, delicious food, super service. I recommend everyone to come and eat here. You had a very good time here. I will give this restaurant a thousand stars. Super, super, super!!! ?“

“I absolutely love this place! I can be here 2 times a week. The staff is amazing, and super friendly! They make their food with LOVE. Everything is so fresh and taste amazing. And the fruit teas are such a thirst quencher!! Recommended to everyone if they love good “
“Beautiful place with beautiful staff. Highly recommend marinated ribeye(number 14) and all dishes we ordered were absolutely delicious. Julie on staff was very kind and overall amazing experience. Highly recommended. Kimchi Fried rice and spicy chicken were also very good.“
“Any time you walk into an ethnic restaurant and hear their language as the dominant sound of the dining room, take notice. This traditional self-serve counter Korean restaurant in a strip mall hides amazingly flavorful food. It is a one person operation, like many Asian food stalls, but he manages to keep it moving so you don't feel like you waited forever, and the dining room is a pleasant place with tea available for free. Every tray is completed with a salad, soup, and pickled kimchi vegetable, usually diakon. This mix, along with your entre, gives you those flavor and texture elements that make a great meal.“
“I never had Korean barbecue before. I was skeptical. Wow! 6+ stars. All the ingredients were fantastic. Flavors I’ve never had before. I highly recommend anything that says beef. John was the best waiter I have had in a long long, long time.??????Thumbs up“
“Searching for an authentic Mongolian restaurant in Illinois felt like uncovering a rare treasure, and we hit the jackpot with this place! The staff was incredibly friendly, creating a warm atmosphere, and the food was beyond delicious. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the bento box—a perfect blend of flavors. If you crave genuine Mongolian cuisine, this is the place to be! Highly recommend it for a delightful dining experience.“
“I have tried a few things here but my go to is the Dolsot Bibimbap, always great and satisfying. The side dishes are always to my liking, they vary from visit to visit, and that is ok with me. Prices have come up but are reasonable. I am often the only or one of the few customers who does not speak Korean there. It is not a fancy restaurant so prepare your expectations for a more relaxed, casual, almost street food style, dining experience.“
“We ordered chicken noodle soup, letting the waiter know that we were going to share. They thoughtfully split our order into two bowls and even gave us a little extra. The chicken noodle soup was delicious! The noodles were cooked perfectly, not too hard and not too soft. The broth was comforting, and the chicken and ingredients tasted fresh. It really was the best chicken noodle soup I've ever tried. The service was great too. We'll definitely be back again.“
“I'm was surprised to find a Korean-style chicken place around here but so so happy. They expanded their menu too and if you haven't had CupBop yet, give it a shot! It's got a little of everything. Of course, if you come in and get their fried chicken every time, I think you'll be very happy all the same.And my girlfriend says that me introducing her to Korean Corndogs changed her life.“
“??????? ??’? ????!This rating encompasses four categories: Atmosphere, Price, Service, and Taste.Atmosphere (2.5/2.5): The restaurant boasts warm ambient lighting, ample natural light from large windows during the day, tasteful decor, comfortable seating, and well-kept furniture. The visuals of the food are truly mouthwatering.Price (2.5/2.5): Their soon tofu stews, priced at $14.49, offer a choice of rice, spiciness level, and a variety of side dishes. Additionally, for aficionados of beef short ribs, $28.89 secures a combo including soon tofu stew, rice, spiciness level choice, assorted side dishes, and a generous portion of meat.Service (2.5/2.5): The staff operates efficiently and courteously, with the owner personally attending to each table, ensuring all needs are met and soliciting feedback on the dining experience.Taste (2.5/2.5): The flavors are exceptionally rich and satisfying, with the warmth of the food not only evident externally but lingering pleasantly after consumption.Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend giving it a try!“
“I really liked this place. It's small seems more of a take out restaurant but the food we had was pretty good. We had the gyoza, veggie fried rice, a Philly roll, bubble tea, and bimbibap. All delicious and the staff was very kind. Bubble tea was a lot better than expected. Will definitely be back to try more.“
“I really like this restaurant. I don't know why because I can't particularly say the food is the best Korean food or that they have the best service or anything but something about it is just really nice if you want a humble Korean meal. The price is pretty reasonable for the food you're getting and there has never been anything I didn't like. The service is just okay. It's typical Korean service, sometime they're nice, sometimes they're not. But they were really understanding when we went with a bunch of babies that were loud and messy. My go to dish is the soojaebi, which I don't like paying for since I make a really good version at home very easily, but I feel like something about this place is just worth it. Definitely a place worth checking out if you like Korean food but don't like making it yourself.“

“My family and I love coming here! Kid friendly, super clean here and we are always greeted sweetly by the owners and staff and they are so accommodating! One of our go to restaurants. We are always craving their food since there are a lot of tasty options~Few of our top favs!Honey garlic and gangjeong have been the top flavors fried chicken for us, perfect amount of spice and flavor and the chicken is nice and crunchy on the outsideTheir boneless options are good too pleasantly juicy on the inside with a nice crispy texturerose ddeok-bokki- the rice cakes perfectly cooked not too chewy not too hardperfectt texture and the flavors are so delicious. If you don’t have a high spice tolerance this can be a good alternative for you instead of regular ddeok-bokkiKimchi fried rice- delicious can’t go wrong ordering this dish here!We like to order fries and pickled radish with our chicken and it’s byob as well so you can enjoy a nice cold beer all together best combo!! (chi-maek) ❤️“
“I love this place so much. The lady who runs the place is super nice and prices are very reasonable. Compared to some of the other waits for restaurants at Mitsuwa Mama House is one of the quickest to get food from. There is almost always no line and you can get your food within 5 minutes. I normally get the Beef Bulgogi and it is always flavorful and a big portion. I definitely recommend if you are looking to come to Mitsuwa to grab a relatively cheap and quick bite.“
“A nice hole in the wall Korean restaurant. It's surprisingly very spacious inside and very homey. It's close to my place but first time checking it out! I ordered the gamja tang which is a soup made made with pork back bone and vegetables. It was tasty. Lots of big chunks of meat. My dad ordered the kal gooksoo, noodle soup with clams and vegetables. My brother ordered the sul lung tang, beef bone broth with thin slice beef, noodles, and green onions. I got to try a bit of their orders and everything was tasty. The 6 side dishes they bring out are also tasty. We naturally spoke to the server in Korean. She was very attentive and sweet. Prices are reasonable. It's nothing mind blowing but a place I'd recommend if you want some simple yet solid Korean food.“
“I have a shellfish allergy, and they offer a great variety of rolls and other foods I can eat. They have an impressive menu overall and good-sized portions. The Kamakazi roll is AMAZING. The mochi ice cream is a perfect portion for after dinner.“
“?? ? ???????? ?????, ??’? ??????!After deciding to grab a quick meal in the area, my partner and I were promptly seated and served.(1) Taste(1.75/2.5): While sundubu jjigae is a Korean staple, ours lacked depth, and the seafood tasted overly fishy. However, the mixed tofu soup was a redeeming factor.(2) Ambiance(2/2.5): The atmosphere was lively and somewhat comfortable, but the seating and decor were not a good arrangement . Despite this, the restaurant appeared clean and well-maintained.(3) Service (2.5/2.5) The staff was attentive and responsive to our needs.(4) Price (1.75/2.5)“

“Hidden gem that’s mostly take out, but they have few tables for dine in. I got the spicy squid stir fry to eat in and ordered kangpunggi to go.Squid was good, however the portion size was on the smaller side… definitely could consumed two orders. Seasoned well and had a kick to it. The kangpunggi was good as well, perfectly fried but lacked the sourness that I was expecting. Overall good experience on first visit.“
