HARASSED BY EMPLOYEE‼ DO NOT COME HERE ‼ My significant other and I had lunch around 2:30ish last Sunday, doing the all you can eat option. When we walked in, there were no other patrons and no other new ones during our entire time there. That should've been our first sign to turn around. Our server was an older woman who goes by the name Lee. She sat us down and recommended us the beef brisket, (beef) joomooluk, and the pork belly. The beef brisket tasted old. Some stuff came in little foil packets and were already pre-cooked ?? All the meat was bland and the kimchi and other banchan weren't that special either. We ordered the shrimp that was advertised with the head on, and it didn't have the heads on. My boyfriend ordered a sprite as it was advertised as that, but received a 7 Up. I asked for more dipping sauce and didn't receive it. Normally little things like this wouldn't bother us as much, but we just kept getting deceived. The price was $78 for two people, which was overpriced for the quality of food and service. After paying, we left and got inside our car. The server chased us out to our car (we were parked right in front of the restaurant) and demanded more money for her tip. I explained that the food wasn't that great and we simply did not enjoy our time there, yet we still tipped. She said "well you're not tipping the kitchen, you're tipping me." I was already sitting in my car and she was STICKING HER ARM THROUGH THE WINDOW demanding for more tip money. I was uncomfortable with what was happening and ended up signing the receipt for a few more dollars. I also work in the service industry and when people don't tip at all, I still wouldn't do something that unprofessional. At first glance this place seems decent, but I would NOT recommend at ALL. read more

All you can eat kbbq! I never knew there was one so close to my house. My family went there to eat yesterday for dinner. Some of their assortment of meats is different than most places, but that's a good thing. We had chadol (brisket), tongue, samgyupsal (pork belly), moksal (pork neck meat), spicy intestines, spicy stomach, tripe, bulgogi. Yeah, we tried a lot. My favorites were the intestines, stomach, & tripe. I'm an offal girl. I liked that the intestines, stomach, & tripe came out in their own foil packets to put directly on the grill. They are actually already cooked so all you have to do is warm them up! The stomach was the family favorite! We all liked that one. Other than that, everything else was meh. The banchan was not good. I barely touched it, except the kimchi. Their kimchi was very good. The soup that they give you after your meal was seaweed soup. Usually it's soybean paste soup or naengmyun. Anyway, the seaweed soup tasted like water and seaweed. I didn't eat mine. I did not like the taste. They also didn't have fried rice at the end of the meal. Boooo. I'm sure I'll still be back when I have kbbq cravings. Just an fyi, it costs $24.99/person & they automatically put an 18% tip for parties of 5 or more. read more

Wish I read the reviews before coming here. I've never had a Korean BBQ experience, so I asked my grandma if we could check this place out. However, after reading the prices and realizing it'd probably be better with a big group, we just ordered some entrees. The food was ok. I've had better Korean. My grandma was stomaching it so not to appear disappointed by my choice, but I know her to well. But the service? Complete ass. We were the only people there that morning, with three people working the floor. There's no excuse for why we had to wave them down for a fork, or water, or the check. They just sat at their table gossiping away. Never did any of them check on us. And on our way out, when we asked for a bag for our leftovers, the lady had the nerve to look offended. I'd rather go to the Pizza Hut than this P O S Hut. read more

Went here for the first time after hearing a bunch of rave from my family and friends. Awesome spot for AYCE bbq!! Great price and great choices. We had AMAZING service from everyone there. We mentioned we'd never been there before and had never done AYCE and they were incredibly accommodating. I love the call button they have as well. Convenient. The vents didn't work so I was covered in meat scent all night, but eh whatever. The banchan was great! A bit on the vinegar-y side but it was still really tasty. Over all 8.5/10 would recommend read more

This spot is probably my go to in the suburbs if I wanted to get all you can eat Korean BBQ. The service is always good here and they are always so happy to see my friends and I come on a regular basis. If there is something that is needed, they come to the table pretty fast as well which is always a plus! The meat selection and side dishes are great as well. I always leave here really full which is great when you are trying to go somewhere to eat & want to enjoy your food. read more

First time here. My husband and his friends have come here a few times and I finally got to try it out with them. $25.99 AYCE for 2 hrs. Seriously a good deal. It's nice that you can order a variety of meats, spicy or mild and it includes squid for anyone that wants some seafood. Also liked that you could order 1/2 size meat platters, as the rules with AYCE is to have no waste or leftover carry out. Only thing I wish they had is more vegetable options. We had onions and the romaine lettuce If you wanted to go low carb without rice. Would want some mushrooms, eggplant, zucchini etc. ban Chan was not bad, there were different radishes, Kimchee, fishcake, cabbage etc. you also get unlimited soup as well. Waitresses were very attentive and brought things out fairly quick. Bill for 8 people with 20 meat dishes and with some alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages was $315.82, this included tax and gratuity. Note: the whole table has to be AYCE. Cannot split the table, so just make sure everyone you go with is onboard. read more

I really liked the food here! They had the usual menu of any other Korean restaurant and a grill and everything, but what stood out to me was that they had a separate little bar that had raw vegetables and rice cakes (duk boki) for you to cook on the grill. I thought that was fantastic. I love dukk boki! I was able to put it into the spicy pork that we ordered. It comes wrapped in foil so it was easy to put the rice cake in to absorb all the flavors. The staff there was really nice and compliment us on our outfits. It's about 20 dollars for all you can eat for lunch. I liked the spicy pork and the bulgogi the best. read more

Excellent! My first time and the variety of meats was fantastic. Great value for $25/pp. read more

*EDIT* I just noticed I made a typo, the address should be 1147 North Roselle Road, not 147. This is one of those Korean BBQ where you can cook the food right at your table. It doesn't look like much from the outside, just tucked away behind a Denny's in some random strip mall. But the decor inside is great, the owner is very cool, and the food is excellent. They have a special going right now where you can eat as as you can hold down for $20/person. If you've been to other Korean BBQ you probably remember how the price per tray of meat means you have to bring lots of friends with you to make eating this food affordable. But here, the pressure is off and the owner is quite generous. They will bring you steamed rice, miso soup and other goodies if you ask, but mainly it's just about the BBQ. Be sure to order a bottle of "OB" (Korean beer) to go with your food! read more

I found my go to Korean BBQ joint! Like all Korean BBQ place, you will get multiple sides with a side of poor service. BBQ Hut kalbi is well seasoned/marinated, I also liked the non-marinated kalbi as well. I especially like the gas grill with lump charcoal added for additional grilled flavor. Next time I have a craving for a Korean BBQ you'll find me here. read more

BBQ Hut Restaurant - Getting my Korean fix BBQ yum. - Barbeque Near Me - Hoffman Estates, Illinois

If you want to spend a lot of money on mediocre food. For two people spent $71.98 plus tax of $8.64 with a total coming out as $80.62. It's $33.99 a person. The waitress was very rude asking for more money and kept trying to bring back my receipt for more money each time. She didn't deserve the tip I already gave her. Should have just put zero on there. This was a bad experience here I suggest you be cautious of this place if you do go. Not worth it. read more

It was an amazing first time experience. I never had KBBQ before. I went with a group of 13 people, and we made reservations a day earlier. The reserved area was a reasonable size and very clean. It had one TV screen that would play the up-to-date kpop music videos. TVs were displayed throughout the entire restaurant. The biggest screen is when you walk through the entrance. The volume of those tv's could probably be adjusted, but it didn't matter so much since my group was to be louder either way. The bathrooms are very clean to my surprise. In fact, it's as pretty as the restaurant itself (I know. It's funny to say). Service was very friendly and excellent. They always checked up on our group once in awhile for water refills, more orders of the sides (such as rice. first bowl is free... or fish cakes and veggies). We ended up splitting 3 checks... Although it did get complicated for some reason. I'm relieved that the staff was calmly handling the checks and process. Food- since I never been to any other KBBQ place (or had any), I would say that the food is tasty! I shared an egg bibimbap served in a sizzling bowl, and lots of beef. The bulgogi was the best! I loved handling the barbecuing grill. We received lettuce, this rice cake roll thingy that I don't know the name of, sauced cucumbers, and rice. The plates that people eat off of are small, not to my surprise since I know some Asian cultures eat rather small. So, I never felt to sickly full. In terms of price, the food is still expensive. I apparently had to pay $21 (yes, I was in a group... but apparently our calculations added up to this per person +additional charges and tax. I wouldn't say that we ordered a ton). Though, my friend told me that this place has the cheapest prices compared to other BBQ houses. I think all BBQ places will be expensive. I would say that this place is worth it. read more

BBQ Hut Restaurant - One of the BBQ beefs (i think it was bulgogi?) alongside with rice, sesame and vinegar sauces, small portions. - Barbeque Near Me - Hoffman Estates, Illinois

Went here with my family (3 adults, 2 kids) on an early Fri evening around 6pm. We used to come here regularly up until about 2yo after this place did away with the AYCE option; without the AYCE, the svc and quality just didn't earn our patronage. But after reading the reviews on the return of AYCE here for the past year or so, we finally decided to give this place another chance ths past weekend. We went in aware of the 2hr cap on the AYCE although the server made no mention of this interestingly. We ordered 3 rds of meats... 1ST RD: 2 orders of chadol (thinly sliced beef brisket) and 2 orders of samgupsal (pork belly). Both meats were tender and overall average quality (what I would expect for an AYCE place). 2ND RD: Repeat of 1st Rd to see if 1st Rd was a fluke. Meat quality was consistent (I mention this b/c some restaurants sometimes taper down the quantity and/or quality during subsequent rounds) and the svc was surprisingly attentive on bringing out the meats as well as on refilling banchan/sidedishes, lettuce wraps, seasoned scallion salad, oils, etc. 3RD RD: Ordered 1 order of jumuluk (they serve thinly sliced ribeye here and not the shortrib steaks we were hoping for) and 1 order of bulgogi. The cuts of beef were tender and flavorful (esp the bulgogi) and made for a nice end to this evening's gluttony. All said and done, the above feast was served and devoured in 1hr, 15min! A successful dinner, I would say. We really weren't expecting good svc, so this evening was a pleasant surprise and maybe a fluke, but we'll have to come back to see if this place deserves to be our mainstay once again as there are so few AYCE Korean BBQ options in Chicago these days. This place is definitely worth a 2nd chance to those who have written this place off in the past. read more

Food is very good and all you can eat is obviously filling. Restaurant is nice and roomy. Lots of tables.

Authentic Korean BBQ. Staff was super nice and food tasted fantastic! Highly recommend

Tipped well, waitress came back to our table. Asked if the service wasn't good enough and demanded more money. Should've taken our first tip off the table and left. $81 for cheap meat, service wasn't the best. $81 for a waitress to bring you uncooked food (you cook your food). Paying $81 to cook your own food, at a restaurant that just brings you your food and demands more money after your initial tip. read more

I highly recommended this place for kbbq. I been going to this place for years and never had they let me down. Not sure what is up with the bad reviews because you people have such high expectation and needy. I have been here multiple times and never had once a problem. The people there are friendly and amazing staff. Food is good and for unlimited bbq they offer you cannot beat. FYI there is no problem with the food or the quality of it and it taste great! Just give it a try and you won't be disappointed... This place should have at least 4 star... read more

My friend wanted to give BBQ Hut Restaurant a try since he heard nothing but how amazing the service was and what a wide variety of options they offer on their all you can eat menu ($25.99/person). The restaurant is pretty small, but we didn't have a problem getting a table for 5 right away. First thing we noticed when looking through the AYCE menu, they didn't offer any appetizers which most AYCE Korean BBQ places I've been to does. They did though give a decent amount of banchan (side dishes usually served alongside with your meal) and had a good meat selection. The service wasn't anything like people raved about. It was extremely slow. It took over 20 minutes to get uncooked meat to our table. We didn't even get our waters or banchans refilled without trying to flag down one of the only two servers. Also we were missing dishes we ordered. For the meats, it was either a hit or miss. We tried everything from brisket to pork to stomach. The brisket was probably the biggest hit at our table, but even then 2 out of the 5 briskets we ordered was extremely tough. Also the seasoned meats were nothing to rave home about. I don't think I would take the time to drive to Hoffman Estates to come back here. There are similar places in the city that offers AYCE Korean BBQ that has better service and quality of meat at around the same price range. read more

I came here on my birthday w friends and fam (8/1) and it was pretty good. The staff were nice and funny but towards the end of our 6th serving, the bbq was all salty and dry. Seemed like they did it on purpose so we'd stop eating. We had nearly 10 servings (6 of us) and we just couldn't eat anymore. Was way too salty and dry. Fortunately, the price was okay. read more

I came here on a weekday evening and the restaurant was close to empty--there was only one other group present. Nonetheless, the service was great. The ahjumma working constantly checked on our table to see if we needed anything. I ended up ordering the soondubu jiggae, which was quite satisfying. There wasn't anything special about the banchan, but I was slightly disappointed that they didn't have radish (my fave). I will definitely have to come back for AYCE KBBQ. read more

It was a fun experience, completely different taste to what I am used to. Some of the sauces were unbearable but people who I went with loved them, so to each their own. Service was amazing, the lady had dishes out before we even asked for them, through out our time there she was there just about the whole time assisting us with everything, definitely will come back. Some of the meat was amazing, others was decent. Definitely something to try at least once. read more

I personally have been here numerous times with groups of people, and, love it. For the price you pay for unlimited it's actually pretty worthwhile. I will continue to keep coming here when I'm craving some KBBQ within close proximity to my home and make memories. It's nothing crazy special, but I really love it nonetheless. read more

BBQ Hut Restaurant - Barbeque Near Me - Hoffman Estates, Illinois

Ordered through Uber Eats. The dolsot bibimbap had nothing dolsot about it. While good, and with decent chunks of beef, the rice wasn't crispy at all. Plentiful on veggies (which I'm a huge fan of nice pieces of shitake!) The flavor was good, a good size for the plate. I also ordered the rice dumpling soup (duk mandu guk). It was a bit lackluster. I appreciated the shreds of scrambled eggs, but the dumplings themselves were a bit small. A little too much of the rice cake slices. I would have appreciated a bit more broth. I just love my soup, and love slurping on it especially when it's bad weather outside, or I'm feeling a little sick. I'll probably honestly order it again when I want my Korean fix. but I might be spoiled by some great Korean food, too. not bad! read more

The types of Korean BBQ places I'm used to allow you to get as much meat as you want, buffet style. Ordering our meat was definitely different. Service was really fast, although we were the only ones in the restaurant. But my cousin said that usually they're slow to getting you your meat. Unlimited buffet is also for two hours, which is a weird concept to me, especially for the price you pay. We ordered the brisket, pork belly, bulbgogi, Circle steak, and then had repeat orders. Everything tasted great. I'm a huge fan of side dishes, so getting my fill of kimchi was a huge bonus. Overall, it's a nice place especially with the unlimited. However, I'm just not a fan of the time limit. I felt like I was in a hurry to eat my food. I'm the type that likes to take their time when eating at a Korean BBQ place, mainly because waiting for the food to cook was always good for conversation time. But, apart from that, I'd definitely recommend it. read more

So, come and enjoy the experience and i hope you get the same service as i did. read more

If I could give this place 0 star, I would. Very rude service. 6 of us came in and had AYCE. We were extremely hungry but we had to wait for more than half an hour and there was literally nothing came out besides water. No small dishes or anything. In the meantime, there was a group came in after us, but the old lady (who was our server) decided to serve them first and left us hanging. Excuse us? We came in a group of 6, we weren't invisible. Great. First time and going to be our last time here! read more

We have dined at this restaurant several times. We love to eat Korean BBQ. My family and I love that we can cook our own meat at our table. The multiple vegetable side dishes are excellent!! This is a great Korean restaurant to check out. read more

I just wanted to say thumbs up to the two waitresses, who took care if our table continually. We had a very big group and they catered to every request we had. The food was great, meats were fresh, well seasoned, and big variety of them. In addition, they had nice variety of condiments and sides. Overall pretty nice experience. read more

The food tasted good, the staff is friendly, but the service is a little slow. It takes a while to get the order served before you can cook the meat. I would have rated this restaurant four stars, but during this most recent visit, there were issues with the vent system, which seems to be blowing air down rather than sucking up the smoke, so our table was so cold, we had to eat with our jackets on. read more

The food was ok but the service ruined the whole meal. Two of the staff were quite rude.

Good good! It's alllll good. Okay, maybe not all good but 90% of the banchan is pretty righteous with the right flavors and consistency (huuuge texture eater here). The meats were good and bulgogi was not too sweet. Found the flavors on the gizzards bland but ya know, you can't have it all! They serve most things on point and the ssamjang was also good. read more

My first time here and the staff is super friendly! I didn't expect this, usually these places are get in get out but I felt very welcomed here.

Which I greatly appreciated. read more

This is one of my go to Korean BBQ places in the suburbs. The place is very clean and not smoky at all. Doing the unlimited saves you a ton of money and you get to try all the different kinds of meat they've available. My favorite is the pork belly. I wasn't a fan of the chicken though, so I wouldn't recommend getting that on the unlimited menu. The sides were all delicious as well and had great flavors. The service was great and they're very friendly here. They're very attentive if you need more meat, sides, drinks, and etc. I suggest to try out this place for some good Korean BBQ read more

I came here ready for the all you can eat like I've done in the past. I was all geared up and ready to consume large amounts of protein! Unfortunately upon entering, I learned that this is no longer an option. The hostess explained that they swapped it out in exchanged for larger portions of single choices of meats and better quality. I was a bit skeptical however dinner still turned out just fine... well good actually. I admit that the quality of the Kalbi, short ribs and wine marinated pork belly was a bit better. The seasoned / marinated meats had a lot of flavor and overall I loved the other dishes we ordered too. My wife and I loved the Kim Chi Bulgogi Bibimbop and spicy seafood soup. Still loved the side dishes and our service was great. They even gave us another order of Kalbi on the house! BTW. The beef short rib was really thick and super meaty. It helps that you're a good griller and don't over-cook your meat... which we didn't. =oP If you're in the Schaumburg / Woodfield area, this is a pretty good place if you're in the mood... read more

Being that this was my first time at Korean BBQ joint, I am rating this place based on stomach satisfaction only. Obviously, my stomach was a fan. After waiting awhile for our server to greet us (we were sat without our third person which I would not recommend here unless you know what you want to order right away. [They seem to ignore you until they see you are ready.] No messing around here with efficiency.) We started with the pan fried dumplings which I thought were pretty amazing, especially when dipped in the awesome soy/chili/garlic sauce that they came with. Maybe I was just hungry. For our entrees, we all went for the $22 all-you-can-eat grill (and ended up only having three things...I would recommend going hungry so you get your money's worth and can try more options). We ordered Bulgogi, Kalbi, and Spicy Chicken. ALL were delicious. I didn't have the patience for the chicken to steam in the little foil packet, so I mostly had the two beef orders and the veggies. AND lots of the sides. I have NO idea what any of the sides or sauces were but they were all awesome. Most of them were spicy too which made me happy because I likeah the spice. I also really liked the bean paste and the little bowl of pure sodium they put in front of me. (Not sure what either are really called but both are YUMMY.) Overall, the service was decent (the ladies checked on our grill several times and made sure that we were cooking everything correctly, got us refills, and asked if we were okay), the food was pretty good, and the experience was fun. I would definitely come back again. read more
