“It is located right across the street from the Lincoln park Whole Foods and walking distance from REI- there’s a lot to do around the restaurant before and after you dine at JiangNiu BBQ”

Some noted
We were there for the first time and the host did not explain anything. Charged us 120$ for TERRIBLE meat and service.
Average cost is about $50 per person after everything. I think it does not worth it.

“A great place for Friday night out with friends.”
A great place for Friday night out with friends. You can grill and hotpot all at once. They have a great meat and vegetable selection and with the new set up you can grab as you like. Do not worry about your grill burning as staff are quick to help with the change.

“Jiang Niu offers decent variety of meats and side dishes.”
Jiang Niu offers decent variety of meats and side dishes. The food quality is generally good, and the self-grilling setup is straightforward. The restaurant is clean, including clean restrooms, and the atmosphere is pleasant and enjoyable. There are many vegetarian options available, and it is also suitable for guests with non-halal restrictions. It is recommended not to arrive too late in the evening, as some ingredients may be limited or sold out. Overall, it is a solid option for casual group dining.

“The $40 all-you-can-eat was worth it.”
The $40 all-you-can-eat was worth it. Just make sure to let them know otherwise they will charge you. The food was fresh and the seafood was delicious even though I never got the tilapia. It was busy so the attention span of the server was average. The fire pit guy was more attentive than the server. He made sure our burned plate fire was changed out🤣🤣. The atmosphere was clean, clean, and clean. Thank you for a great visit. There was no time limit when we visited.

“Good Korean ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT BBQ.”
Good Korean ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT BBQ. You get your iPad and your table with a grill. They bring you sauces and dips and all you do is just order on the iPad and wait for plates to arrive to your table from kitchen. Some menu items such as scallop vermicelli are limited. Drinks are extra. They have many meat options, my favorite being garlic beef slices (pretty fatty so you can’t eat a lot of it) and black pepper beef strips. I liked this location a little better than the one on Chinatown. Great service. They also have better grills so the food doesn’t stick as much.

tasty Korean bbq at a good price compared to some other places in the city. The meat portions were huge. The spicy shrimp and pork belly were our favorites. The servers were also super friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely be back

“Service was very friendly and food was decent.”
Service was very friendly and food was decent. You get what you pay for so don’t expect premium meat. It is a bit greasy and not the best quality but there are lots of other items that comes with the all you can eat that are decent.
