“If you love “all you can eat”, you will like this place. There are so many options for meat, seafood, vegetables and fruits. Each portion is not big so you can order variety food to try. Quality of the meat is good as well as seafood. We ordered crab. It came alive! There is 2 hours limited time but it’s long enough for you to enjoy the meal. It’s quite smoky inside but it is worth it.”
“I like this place very much such a best Barbecue in China town .”
“Amazing Service by Aaron C!!!! Came here for a birthday and he was extremely attentive and helpful! Made sure we got the right portions and treated us so kindly! Best first Korean bbq experience highly recommend!”
“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. 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! 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.”
