I was really excited when I found this place online because it meant I wouldn’t have to drive far for Korean BBQ.
We really wanted to like this place, and at first we did. The food was delicious, the environment was nice.

“But I loved the extra extra garlic in the clam and enoki dishes that you cook on the grill…but please reduce the oil by 90%”
First-time visit - and a serious sanitation concern.

I went there on my birthday and it was New Year’s Day so it was packed but I love how they treated everyone great and giving their great customers service. One thing that I love about this place is that check up on us if everything was okay. Thanks to place for making my 21 birthday so special. I will be definitely coming back.

“We had a great family experience at Shinhwa Korean Steakhouse.”
We had a great family experience at Shinhwa Korean Steakhouse. The quality of the food was excellent, from the meats to the shrimp, and cooking together at the table made it fun and interactive for everyone. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked just the way we liked it. The atmosphere was welcoming and family-friendly, and you could tell a lot of other families were enjoying themselves as well. It’s the kind of place where you take your time, enjoy good food, laugh, and create memories together. We all left full and happy, which says it all. Highly recommend for a family night out

“I highly recommend this place.”
I highly recommend this place! This was my 2nd visit, and every single time the experience has been perfect. My girlfriend found this spot for New Year’s Eve, and we were blown away by the quality. Since it's an All You Can Eat Korean BBQ, I was impressed by the high-grade steaks and chicken. I visited again yesterday, and even though it was a quieter day, the service was even better. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming. For the quality you get, the price is very affordable. If you are in Chicago, this is a must-visit! I’ll definitely be back every time I’m in town.

Aaron C. Was our service during the duration of or meal. Aaron was very attentive, and kind to us. We came for my Boyfriends Birthday and he gave us a little cup of ice cream and a decorative plate that was so cute. Thank you Aaron for your wonderful service and making my boyfriend’s birthday a little more special.
