“Our family of four are regulars at Mr Kimchi. We love coming here for weekend dinners. This is a definite go to place when our boys come home from college. They crave Korean BBQ and the tofu soup/bean paste soup from here. Our waiter “Key” is very friendly and acknowledges our family every time we visit. He is always on top of it all when it comes to serving our table. We love coming here.“

“First time in this restaurant! From tender ribs to smoky pulled pork and melt in your mouth brisket, every bite is a flavor explosion!! But it’s not just about the meat—the sides are equally outstanding. Jalapeños cheese corn bread out of this world!“

“Big Lou’s loves Big Ange’s Eatery! Great vibe! Friendly and courteous service. Excellent food! I personally had the Reuben. Owner Rokko stopped by our table and introduced himself. We talked about naming our businesses after our parents, Big Lou and Big Ange! Ended our lunch with their homemade ice cream which was smooth, creamy and very tasty! Will definitely be back for more when the crew is on the road.“

“I came recently with a friend and the service and food was great. I wanted a booth and was told no at first but was accommodated to a larger table in the back. We got the brisket and bulgogi along with some mango and lychee soju. The price isn't bad for ayce and you don't feel rushed when you come in the afternoon. Ask for Stephan he was great!“

“We stopped and picked up some ribs, jerk chicken, burnt ends to go. I am a confessed BBQ snob and I was blown away at the execution of cooking and the flavor. I dislike BBQ places that so do season adequately, but they delivered on all accounts.They were also very patient as I was looking over the menu and ordering.Will definitely be back!“

“Good food! We tried few varieties and everything tasted really well. Owner is a nice person too. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for Mediterranean food. Space is a bit tight but they compensate that with good service.Dietary restrictions: Halal“

“Fantastic food! Service was super good and the food came out insanely fast even though they were completely packed full of people. Definitely recommend this place. There will most definitely be a wait as they don't take reservations and it's first come first serve but we'll worth the wait.“

“I have been going to Hofherr Meat since they opened their doors 10 years ago and I can tell you that this is the best source of top quality meat in the Northern suburbs. Arielle, Sean and their team are always professional, accommodating and go out of their way for their customers every day. Whether it is the Beef, Pork, poultry, In-house made sausages...they just do everything well.They will source pretty much anything if you give them a little notice. Congratulations to Hofherr meat on your 10 years in business and i look forward to the next 10 as well! Cheers! I highly recommend Hofherr!“

“strongly recommend the restaurant! Honestly, the best Korean restaurant in the area and overall phenomenal experience.The barbecue was delicious! Marinated very well and tasted great with the salad/veggies that they made! The side dishes tasted amazing and they kept refilling!The service was also incredible. The owners are a lovely Korean couple and they really did a great job to welcome us. They even learned the name of our daughter and brought a croissant from the back for her to eat! They kept saying hi to our daughter during the meal and trying to play with her and engage her. When we left the came to the door to say goodbye to our daughter and us.Definitely 10/10 experience overall. We will be back!“

The food was very filling and at a good price, I loved the experience and I will definitely come again.Parking: There is free parking right outside the BBQ, it is easily accessible.Kid-friendliness: The workers were nice to kids and were really friendly in general.“

“It was our first time here, we were celebrating our 25th anniversary. The wait was not bad, even without reservations. The atmosphere was so relaxing and comfortable that it felt like home. The servers were friendly and very helpful. The food... oh my goodness... it was so delicious and delightful, you really have to try it. This place is nestled away in Northbrook, but is easy to get to. Trust me, try this place!“

“My family and I love coming here! Kid friendly, super clean here and we are always greeted sweetly by the owners and staff and they are so accommodating! One of our go to restaurants. We are always craving their food since there are a lot of tasty options~Few of our top favs!Honey garlic and gangjeong have been the top flavors fried chicken for us, perfect amount of spice and flavor and the chicken is nice and crunchy on the outsideTheir boneless options are good too pleasantly juicy on the inside with a nice crispy texturerose ddeok-bokki- the rice cakes perfectly cooked not too chewy not too hardperfectt texture and the flavors are so delicious. If you don’t have a high spice tolerance this can be a good alternative for you instead of regular ddeok-bokkiKimchi fried rice- delicious can’t go wrong ordering this dish here!We like to order fries and pickled radish with our chicken and it’s byob as well so you can enjoy a nice cold beer all together best combo!!

“In order to get better Chinese BBQ at Chinatown prices you have to drive to Chinatown ??♂️. Specifically now the Kennedy expressway is under construction, Jason is it.The lunch plates with a little vegetable, some basic soup and a BBQ meat is about &10-$12. It isn’t a good value anymore. Tasty but not a good deal.Carry out only.“

“So this place offers tons of bbq meats. We don't consume swine so only ordered the brisket and Alabama Chicken.I wouldn't brag about the mediocre beef brisket and the burnt ends, as we've eaten much better tasting brisket in Troy Alabama.The star of the show at this food joint hands down is the Alabama BBQ Chicken. This was our first time tryin it and .... Boy oh! Boy ..... Love at the first bite ..... Perfectly Crispy, Crunchy Skin and then the most flavorful, moist, juicy and tender bbq chicken meat ever.The service at this location royally sucks .... but the Alabama Chicken masks it with a flavorful punch.“

“One of the best restaurants I’ve been to I’m my entire life. My brother had a terminal illness and the food here was so good it was his last wish before he passed. Luckily after we ate the food a miracle happened and he was cured! I’m so happy right now 10/10, this place will always hold a place in my heart.“

“The food is decent but with everything being al a cart the price really adds up fast.We paid $26 for 1 burger and a salad.No sauces fries etc .A bit much for my wallet.Parking: Just fineKid-friendliness: High chairs available. Very casual atmosphere.Wheelchair accessibility: The doors are very air tight so if you're coming alone in a wheel chair you may find access difficult.“

“My daughter and I traveled from DC to Chicago for a cheerleading competition. We decided to try Porky's... I am not making this up, hands down the best BBQ I've had in years. The combo sandwich with brisket and pork, is phenomenal. The Porkys Beans with brisket, left me speechless. Outstanding customer service to go along with the great taste. Honestly wish I lived in the area, so I could eat here more often.“

“Delicious BBQ and Greek food! Friendly service, caring owners, great neighborhood place, been going to BBQ Pit since 1990 and it's always a treat! It's also great to go before or after a (an earlier) movie at Wayfarer! It's also fun running into your friends there!“

“Came here on Sunday, March 3rd 2024. Service was great but a bit slow. The restrooms need to be deep cleaned. Super gross stuff on the sink, no hand soap available, toilet was dirty and bathroom floors felt a bit sticky. The food, however, is amazing. I see why people rave about it. Great quality and taste amazing! Just wish the bathrooms were cleaner!“

“Having been here many years ago, and returning, found that their food has improved, but the service is minimal at best with the owner and one staff waiting on all the tables. After we sat down to a half empty room, it started to fill up and there were not enough staff, not even a bus boy to clear tables.We ordered the Dolsot be Bim bop and the Yuk Guy Jang, which I order visiting new Resturants to see if they are consistent with authentic Korean food. The Yuk Guy Jang was good but much different than I’ve ever had before.I will try to visit again since I love Korean food too see if they are consistent.Be fore you go, look ? ⬇️ and hit the thumbs ? up.“

“This place is always great! I would suggest getting there an hour before you plan to eat since it is ALWAYS packed. The food is always amazing, and I have never had a bad server. They really do pride themselves on their performance with customer service.“

“Hands-down my favorite place to eat whenever I am not over 20 mins away I stop by to get a steak sandwich. I literally bought a charcoal grill and that's the only way I grill now is because of this place because that flavor that the charcoal gives nothing else compares. I don't know if any other place that uses a charcoal grill. It's a literally just steak on French bread no sauce no toppings and it's the best thing ever because of how they marinate it and grill it on a charcoal grill. The sauce they have on the table is the best sauce I've ever had I don't know how to make it but I want to know it goes amazing on the fries and I loaded up on the sandwich to the fries and coleslaw and salad are excellent as well. The jumbo fried shrimp are amazing Family owned Greek restaurant doing things the old-school way can't compare this place has been around for over 50 years I believe always a bunch of people I'm sure everything else is delicious too but I've just never not wanted their steak sandwich to try anything else and it's what I recommend for everyone you will not be disappointed. Warning, though you will not enjoy your steak sandwich. Anywhere else after you've tried one of theirs unfortunately, I found that out every other place disappoints after having one of these.“

“Drove 35 minutes to eat here, but was skeptical about how good it would be. I left with a full carryout order of 1/2 chicken for tomorrow, after finishing a 1/2 order at dinner today! Absolutely delicious, and not to mention, very kind owners!“

“The food was really good but not excellent. The corn pudding lacked flavor. It was almost like damp cornbread mixed with corn kernels but no flavor. The pulled pork was good but almost cold when served. I'll definitely try it again because we went when they first opened, and it was a Monday.Kid-friendliness: Large open space as long as you don't let your kids run wild and they will have a good time.Wheelchair accessibility: It's all on one level , with easily accessible doors and parking.“

“*Grilled tripe that is more Korean than Korea*This is a tripe lover who traveled to the United States. I've been to many places including Wangsimni and Sinchon, so I honestly thought I wouldn't be impressed.But the tripe here is fresher and more plentiful than in Korea. If you think about it, it’s obvious, right? Meat is very cheap in America haha.Oh, the fried rice is also really big..I ate tripe, but I can’t resist ordering fried rice, right? I was so full that I tried to take it out, but it was so delicious that I ate it all.If you go to Chicago, you must eat it.. Really..“

“Would give this more around 3.5 stars. Iron Age is a pretty Americanized, whitewashed korean restaurant which if you like by all means eat here. They were out of rice cake 2 hrs before close so it was really just a bunch of meats to choose from, and having just rice and meat isn’t really my cup of tea but that’s my personal preference. Also the music videos, which were very loud, had weird and even sometimes gorey scenes which are projected on the walls of the entire restaurant. The food itself tasted really good. I especially liked the bulgogi and the spicy pork steak. Service was great and our waiter was very helpful and attentive. There are many other korean places nearby with a greater variety of korean food for cheaper. Probably won’t come again.“
