The food is excellent quality for a non table grill style K-BBQ place.
Tables are well kept, the menu is far from generic, YES you can order traditional items but you would be doing yourself a disservice if you did.
However, as the name would suggest, the other half of the BBQ is the Soju!
Traditional beer bottled and wine bottle format are available. Just don't ask me the proper way to say any of their names!
It has 3 table formats (group, bar, and duo seating), so they try to cater to the solo acts and the bored groups looking for grub.
Cons:
That bathroom, I wish it wasn't worth a full deduction, but when your trach can foot lid is facing the wall, the pain is chipping off in corners of it and the light is uncessarily dim to the poiny me at 1st believing the bulb was nearing its end.
The toilet seat is misaligned, meaning it's due for a tightening, and there's little to no annual checking on how clean it is throughout the workday.
Korean music is not something I take issue with. But 9-5 K-pop on a loop with english subtitles is painful and uncessary, I have been in many resteraunts with seeking an "up-beat" aesthetic. Non-stop k-pop has never accomplished this. It attracts a non-existent K-pop obsessed customer, the kind that never go to a downtown corner of building resteraunt in Chicago.
In Summary:
This place has the distinguished title of being 1 of Chicago's unexpectedly High Quality corner resteraunts.
The food seasoning or ingredient quality is flavorful. Yes, there will be sodium, we ALL know what we signed up for, and the Drinks are good place to start on your journey into Soju.
I recommend the pork belly items.
However their attempt at a K-popesque atmosphere are unnecessary and at worst annoying. And that bathroom scares me.
On paper they can easily fit 26 realistically your group should cap at 15.
