Amazing food! I appreciate that right after we sat, they brought out warm barley tea to drink. Great selection of bonchon with our dinner.

So they serve hot cumin water (please correct me if I am wrong) first which we thought was tea - but it set the precedence and expectation really high - we loved it. The expectations were only passed over - when they bought in BANCHAN set one by one and placed it in front of us to begin with - before the main course started over. The timings were spot on they really do care about giving that wholesome experience. We had ordered a BIBIMBAP the hot stone just drilled down on the vibe factor and mine personally was a Beef Bulgogi Bento which taste wise was heavens. The best part of it that I totally forgot about was it came with the side of egg drop soup which was sould refreshing.

Food was great, service great, and overall just a great time. Not too expensive and very flavorful and was fast from order to table. Will be my number one Korean bbq place in the area or when I just want something different to eat. Nice night out! Thanks for the experience!

You absolutely have to try the pork bulgogi here. Compared to other locations, the taste is on a completely different level. Even the sundubu jjigae and all the side dishes are flawless—every single bite is perfect. Honestly, it’s the best I’ve ever had, even compared to the sundubu and pork bulgogi I ate back in Korea for 33 years. The flavors here at the Oakbrook location are truly soul-filling and even cure my homesickness. If you order both the sundubu jjigae and pork bulgogi, the price might feel a bit high, but it’s still way cheaper than a plane ticket to Korea—so it’s totally worth it!

Very delicious Banchan - kimchi and radish specially. No wonder the meals were tasty too! We had bibimbap tofu and chicken and a bento box. All three were amazing. There are multiple vegetarian options as well.

I visited this restaurant during lunch, and I was really impressed! It’s a franchise, but this location stands out — the food here is noticeably better and cleaner compared to other branches like Glenview and Schaumburg. The service was excellent too; both the server and the food runner were genuinely friendly and attentive. I often come to Oakbrook Center, and from now on, whenever I’m craving Korean food, this is definitely my go-to spot. Highly recommended!

Go and experience Korean. Friendly attentive service. Reasonable prices and tasty food. Would recommend you read menu items before going out there and try it out. Fun. Hot (temperature) and spicy.
