Great food and hours! Been coming here for years and will continue to~ recommend the Volcano Egg and the Army Stew!

The food quality is poor, and the price is unreasonable. I suspect the high ratings are due to their reward system, offering free food for positive reviews. read more

Amazing! Portions are huge and definitely coming back here. Great service! And awesome ambiance read more

Flow into Chicago around 10pm and my wife took me here to grab some food, with the time difference and it being so late I was pretty hungry! When we walked in we had to wait for the server but there was only one or two on the floor so that was understandable. We ordered the champurgurri, potato on a stick and the spicy grilled octopus. I wasn't too big on the octopus, the potatoes was cool but hard to eat, but the the champurgurri was amazing! The thin slice beef was seasoned perfectly and the ramen has so much flavor and texture! I was impressed, I've tried making the famous parasite noodles and they do not come out this good! Their beer was good too. Overall it was a nice date with my wife! read more

As a Korean, I wish Koreans understood how to run a business. Six of us went to karaoke and booked a slightly larger room than what we needed ordered 3 dishes and some soju and got charged $500. They told us that we booked a room for 12 people that could hardly fit 8-9. They are so short sighted in how they run their business. I would understand if there was a long wait for the karaoke rooms but they were only half full. The guy said we should have switched to a smaller room but also never encouraged us to. With all these new Korean bars popping up, this place will be struggle city for the next few years. I will not go back. Do better. I will only go to Jurang for karaoke and New village for bar food. read more

I've been here 3 times now and I would come more often if I didn't live so far. This place has the most authentic Tteok-Bokki (sweet and spicy rice cakes) So yummy and the sweet string potato fries is a great combo with a nice cold beer. They also have delicious chicken wings! I highly recommend it! read more

Still my go to Korean bar! Included pictures of our order this time. We got the volcano steamed egg and the spicy chicken with cheese. So many other delicious dishes I always have a hard time deciding what I want. Obviously we also had a mix of soju and beer. A must when you dine at a Korean bar. I noticed that some dishes can be more spicy on some days compared to some other visits. I'd recommend asking for dishes to be prepared less spicy if you're not some that likes the heat. Some dishes can tend to be very spicy so definitely ask the server and let them know. Service is always quick. If you need anything you can always press the bell on the tables to get a servers attention. I'll definitely be back soon for some late night bites and drinks! read more

Would recommend it read more

This Korean cuisine restaurant left a lasting impression. The fresh ingredients paired with unique flavors create a delightful taste. I really recommend the fruit soju and chicken with green onion. Also had one of my favorites anywhere, tteokbokki. Everything was amazing. The service is warm and attentive, enhancing the overall dining experience. Food is a little pricey but you're also paying for the vibe. So come with a big group so you can order several things and share. There's also karaoke next store as a bonus. Highly recommended! I love this place! read more

Good service. Nice atmosphere. We ordered grilled baby octopus and sweet chili chicken. The octopus tastes good, but the portion is on the smaller side. read more

I love some good Korean fried chicken, and Agit definitely lived up to the hype! My two roommates and boyfriend shared cheese corn, ddukbokkgi (spicy rice cakes), chicken, and pork skins. Cheese corn - eat it while it's hot and before the cheese hardens. SO good...I'm craving it again right now. Take that spoon and dig in! Ddukbokkgi - I like my ddukbokkgi thick but this one was liquid-y. Still tasted good though. It came with three dumplings and three fried seaweed wraps. Mild spiciness. Fried chicken - I know people hate this word but the chicken was MOIST (in a good way of course). We got the plain, the one with scallions, and the spicy. I would definitely get a spicy and non-spicy - both were so good! Lastly, the service was good and prompt - thanks to the call buttons. :) read more

The food is great! We ordered beef tender fish cake soup and it is very delicious. Also the service is quite good.

Great food and great place to hang! They have some of the best Korean comfort food in Chicago.

The jjuggumi is very good. Might be spicy for some people but try it with the sesame leaves and raddish.

Not an honest buisness ... the total was supposed to be around $80 for us and they made it $110 so be careful when you get your check to double check and make sure they don't overcharge. read more

We wanted to try a new place and boy were we glad we did. We are not impressed with most Korean restaurants in the Chicagoland area because we cook Korean food at home all the time and most places don't offer consistent, high level of quality that we have found in other major cities. But we were really impressed with the food at Agit. Yes, it's a bar, but we took our 11-year-old son, and it felt perfectly fine because we went early and the lighting in the restaurant was high enough that we didn't feel creepy about it. And after trying the food, my husband (who is incredibly picky) said he wanted to come back again -- which is his highest compliment. What we had: -- Tornado Potato -- the 11-year-old wanted this and we rolled our eyes and said, "Let him have what he wants." Obviously, it came out first, and we were so pleasantly surprised. It's perfectly seasoned, incredibly crispy and delicious. It came with two dipping sauces, ketchup and honey mustard. My husband and I exchanged a look like, "Okay, we have hope for the rest of the food if this potato on a stick is this good." -- Movie Parasite Noodles With Beef Brisket -- again, the 11-year-old ordered this. It's their take on the jjapaguri (ram-don) from the movie Parasite. This dish was big enough for 2-3 people to share and my son was in heaven. He loved it. -- Spicy Pollack Roe Stew (arr-jigae) -- I don't see it on the Yelp menu but they had it on the menu in the restaurant and this is my husband's favorite stew. He judges a restaurant based on how good this stew is and how refreshing the soup is in the stew. He was not disappointed. It was really great and flavorful. -- Spicy Stir-Fried Beef Intestine -- I grew up eating stir-fried beef intestines because my mom used to make it but I have not willingly eaten this in adulthood at all because it's one of those dishes you think back on and wonder, "Ewww..." But I've been watching a lot of Eat With Boki (a Korean mukbanger) and she makes this spicy version look so delicious when she eats it so when I saw it on the menu, I got the sudden urge to try it, to my husband's shock. But it was incredibly well made and delicious! Wow! This is a dish that is hard to make without a ton of soup accumulating when you cook it. But this had no liquid, and it was perfectly seasoned. We hope this place does well and keeps up the quality of the food. We already know we want to go back and try a lot of the other things on the menu. My husband, who grew up in Chicago, says the place reminds him of the quality of food served by Hour Glass and Saboo, both of which closed down. This is also a karaoke place. But for anyone looking for really good-quality Korean food, we highly recommend this place. read more

We went there last night and the place needs cleaning..im sorry to say but the karaoke room stinks ..idk if people pee or poop in there but really u can smell it right away once u go in..definitely not going back.. read more

Like everyone says- solid Korean bar in the burbs! It's very old fashion like- literally you'll hear 80s/90s/whatever korean music in the background, but the food is really good. I would skip the egg based appetizers but the rice balls, cheese buldak chicken and Korean army soup are all really good here. The broth wasn't as greasy - and I liked how it was perfectly spicy. It's good for 2-3 people. Overall recommend this place! Had the soju cocktails there before and it was good (not that strong tho). My non-Korean friends really enjoyed the food. read more

It's a fun place to hang if you've got cool friends! Haha just kidding. It's a cool place to be, even without cool friends! So glad I've checked this place out. It was quite empty on a Sat night at midnight, but perhaps people come later? I didn't want it to be a full house where I have to shout to my friends anyway so it was perfect for me. The food was really good. Unlike American bars where you get really crappy food for drunk people, Korean bars are all about good food. Have yummy food while you enjoy your drinks. And what's a must? Fried chicken. I wish I got the fried chicken with the sauce because I got plain fried chicken. The assorted skewer was such a good deal because you get all 5 kinds for $20. I'd rather skip their competitor JuRang and come here instead because service was so much better! And I like to have drinks in dark lighting. read more

Well, we had another hankering for carryout Korean fried chicken and picked this place. Around here, there are fortunately many Korean places to choose from and we thought we would try this one based on some good reviews.  So this review is based on a carryout of their fried chicken, and not the business as a Korean karaoke bar per se for which it has high ratings. I think we blew it by ordering right near their 5:30pm opening time on a Friday evening.  Place was still totally dead at the 5:45pm pickup time.  I believe, mainly based on reviews, that if you catch their kitchen at a good busy time and going through freshly made batches, you'll get a good product.  What we got for $18 was a container of leftovers, maybe from the previous day.  It definitely was not freshly made.  The chicken itself was reheated hot and tasted ok, but was dried out, and it was topped haphazardly and strangely with stale french fries.  Is this standard? - I'm thinking not as their Yelp photos show either fried chicken only, or topped with green onions ($3 extra).  It was like someone didn't want to throw yesterday's fries out, but instead threw them atop the chicken.  I guess it was "free" but it didn't make a good impression, and especially so being stale. Anyway, going with 2 stars.  There were 2 other Korean karaoke bars we were considering which have good fried chicken, and I have to think we would have gotten a better product just based on our past experience at both.  The 2 stars gives this place some benefit of the doubt that they could have done better if they wanted to, that is, when it's busier.  In the end, we won't ever be back! read more

Amazing overall! The portions are share sized so take that into account. We were seated right away and the atmosphere was super easygoing. Food came out super fast and every item was amazing. The tempura with the Ttekboki was super good and the spicy and sweet chicken was delicious. They serve what I think is cooled barley tea instead of water and if compliments the food super well! Really reccomend this place! Also think they have a separate space for karaoke so that looks like I'm going to do after the meal. read more

This is my first time here and the service is great! The spicy octopus is really good!

I've been here a couple of times and enjoyed my time! I'm not sure why I always forget that this place exists when I want to go late night drinking...but the location is in an unassuming plaza so I always forget it's there even though I pass by it often! I haven't been disappointed by the food nor drinks, and it's open later than any of the other korean bars I've been to! I didn't know that they had karaoke here, so I was pleasantly surprised when my friends decided to finish off the night in one of the private rooms in back~ Rooms were spacious and had good song selection. The only gripe would be the very prominent sewage (or something else?) smell that is always there, but otherwise I definitely want to come back more often! read more

Grill baby octopus taste very good, and the fried chicken also very good. Recommend half half for chicken!

Wow, where do I start? A Korean co-worker of mine recommended for us to try out this local hot-spot. When you first enter, it's a bit too loud, but for me, that's expected since this place is a bar. The food here and the services are beyond that. I ordered the famous AGIT Ramen, which comes with Ramen and seafood marinated in a spicy delicious broth. Mind you, I am a Ramen connoisseur, and I've been to top Ramen places and this place competes with those restaurants. Also, they had a very good potato skewer that comes with two special sauces. The staff members are beyond professional. One of the chefs bows his head down (out of respect) when he serves you the food. This to me, shows the level of care and passion that goes into his foods. read more
