    Casual dining fried chicken place, but several other Korean dish options. Staff is friendly and quick. Clean dining area. I love the sweet and spicy fried chicken. The skin is fried in such a way that it's almost separated from the meat, it's really yummy. We also got some fried rice with bulgolgi that was good, but a little greasy. Definitely fast food. We also got the corn dog type thing that was filled with cheese. Pretty yummy, but heavy. Good food, but for a cheat day.

    Bulgogi Fries

    Came with a friend Sunday evening around 7 pm. Parking was really easy to find because the restaurant is attached to a mall. We were greeted and seated right away. This place is known for their Korean chicken wings but we got the bulgogi fries and tteokbokki because that's what sounded good to us at the time. There could have been more bulgogi on the fries but the fries themselves were cooked perfectly. The tteokbokki had a good kick to it but the flavor was great. It came with two gyozas on top as well. Would recommend!

    This place was a nice surprise. I love Korean bbq style food and these wings had awesome flavor and were super crispy. Even my husband liked and he's pretty particular about wings. The place is casual and a bot carries the food to the table.

    Half & half soy garlic and spicy
    Maggie M.

    The Tteokbokki was spicy and cheesy good. They added 2 veggie potstickers on top. Also had tried the Bulgogi stir fry Udon, which was amazing. Red peppers and bulgogi were in the dish. Great flavors and had the right amount of seasoning. We like the Udon Noodles, so this was a new dish to try for us. Last of all had the chicken katsu on rice and side of Cole slaw. Like that they have robot servers that brings the food to the table. The servers will come by to take the food and place on the table for you.

    Chicken  Seoul Sampler
    Annie K.

    I got the Seoul sampler. The food was pretty good. I did order pickup so I didn't realize there was a sign that said due to the bird flu the chickens will be medium size. Korean fried chicken is know for there large and plump drums/wings. If the fried chicken was the original size I would say it's definitely worth coming here to check out! However the chicken pieces I got were pretty small. I would say it's quite overpriced currently. Definitely wait until they go back to the original drum/wing sizes before coming here!

    If you're a fan of crispy, flavorful chicken, Bonchon Korean Fried Chicken is an absolute must-try. The chicken is perfectly fried to a golden. I went for their signature soy garlic flavor and spicy chicken. They both had just the right balance of sweet and savory, with a bit of a kick. The Korean donuts were a perfect finish to the meal. Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Overall, Bonchon nails it. Fried chicken and beer? You can't go wrong. Highly recommend!

    Bacon Kimchi Rice Bowl
    M N.

    This a good quick fix when it comes to the basics of Korean cuisine. This is my first time trying the fried chicken and it was not bad at all. Next time I hope to enjoy it on location, so it is nice and fresh! We ordered a bunch from this place including fried chicken, corn, pork belly plate that comes with rice, kimchi, and a friend egg. All great. They have a lot on the menu so I hope if I am ever in town or around another chain, I can try more. We got it delivered, and it came on time, and everything was intact and ready to eat.

    Pork belly buns
    Maria T.

    Ambiance 4* - simple, modern, spacious, warehouse-feel ceilings, cool light features. Cute robot helps bring out the food. Service 5* - nice guy who answered questions re the menu. He also recommended the pork buns which were to die for!! Refilled drinks without us having to ask. Food 5* - omg... The pok belly buns are a MUST have. The texture of the bun is soft and delicious. I was nervous about the pork belly texture coz of the fat but it had a great fried texture. The sauce was super yum. And the wings... The crispiness of the skin was amazing. And their sauces were so flavorful. The soy garlic sauce was bomb. Order the yum yum sauce if you like spicy. Equally delicious. They bring out the chicken with a cubed picked radish side. Nice pairing with the sweet and spicy sauces. You must eat the chicken with white rice! Takes it to another level. We will be back! Other: lots of mall parking.

    Bulgogi Fries
    Aishah P.

    Had a nice lunch with friends at Bonchon on Sunday and had a pleasant time! We were seated quickly and the food was amazingggg! I highly recommend the bulgogi fries and the wings with Yang Yum sauce! We had the pork buns as well and they were delicious but I wish it had more filling. Our server was so friendly and the restaurant had a chill vibe, would come back again

    Mixed 6 wings and 3 drums

    I got the mixed 6 wings + 3 drums in half & half (soy garlic and Korean BBQ) flavors, plus seasoned fries. This was for takeout. In my experience Korean fried chicken usually holds up well even for delivery/takeout, but in this case the chicken and fries both got soggy. I tried heating them back up in the air fryer, but they still weren't as crispy as I was hoping. The soy garlic and Korean BBQ chicken were very salty and didn't have much else flavor besides that. The seasoned fries were a bit bland (or got overshadowed by the chicken), so they did balance out a bit.

    Mixed half plain half soy garlic lunch special wings, the sauce is Delicious!

    Are the wings breaded?

    Yes! There's a light crispy, crunchy breading on the wings. It's one of my favorite parts about them!

The Spicy Pork Cupbap was quite tasty. The GLASS NOODLES (served with it) were some of the best I've ever tried. Although, the portion of the "Spicy Pork" itself was a bit underwhelming (in terms of quantity, texture, and flavor). Highly recommend ordering a side of Spicy Mayo and Garlic Soy to drizzle on top of the bowl for some extra flavor. The Rose Tteokbokki was okay. I selected an optional addition of Mozzarella Cheese along with it, but it had a VERY funky scent when it came out, which made it almost unpleasant to eat. While it was plenty cheesy and creamy, it was also missing the depth of flavor I was hoping for. It wasn't BAD, but I've had better. Perhaps I'd opt for the (regular) Tteokbokki instead of the Rose Tteokbokki next time (and I'd skip the cheese). I always appreciate when a spot offers free cups of water, which Kogii Kogii Express did. Overall, it was a solid dining experience. If you're craving Korean comfort food (in the suburbs), this place is a good choice.

It's about $14 for an entree. Maybe that sounds like a lot, but you get a lot. Entrees are mostly meaty with beef or seafood, but you can get tofu instead. They can make most of these okay for vegetarians. Each of us got the Spicy Noodle. This is buckwheat noodles in hot sauce. Additionally. this came with lots of appetizers. There was kimchi, miso soup, and lots more. For sure this is one of the best options in town for Asian. It's authentic, but it's suitable for American tastes. There's plenty of choices for meat eaters, and also many that can be made for vegans and vegetarians.

    I loved our AYCE Korean bbq dinner at Seocho Garden. I was craving kbbq (and not from a chain…read morerestaurant but a friendly family-owned type of establishment) with a spread of banchan and lots of red meat. We found this spot in Lisle and headed straight there. We were 2 adults doing the AYCE ($40/per person). This meal set included choice of unlimited meat, banchan, rice, fluffy egg, veggie pancake, and certain salads. Other items were à la carte like their cold noodles ($5) and lettuce to wrap your meat or kimchi jigae, if you wanted to supplement the basic set. The food was so fresh. The banchan tasted like it was made by my friend's mom (highest compliment), and the meat was delicious. We chose bulgogi, and garlic marinated beef and an unmarinated one. There is a warning that they would charge if there were too many leftovers, so we were careful not to over-indulge since we were just 2 people. I absolutely LOVED the cold noodles. The soup was slightly sweet, buckwheat noodles were so chewy as intended (I was able to eat this without cutting it out with scissors) and included a half hard-boiled egg, slice of Korean pear, and slivers of cucumber. I would come back just for this dish. I was tempted to get the kimchi jigae but knew I wouldn't have room, and also it was sweltering hot outside, in the middle of summer. The service was friendly and quick. We came on the early side, around 6pm so the place was not packed yet with larger dinner parties. Our cups were kept filled with water and we were checked on frequently; our grill was cleaned as needed. This is a spot where I'd love to bring my parents when they visit the burbs (frame of reference is that they love San Soo Gab San in North Park). On the inside of the restaurant, there were tons of 4x6 print outs of customers over the years. I loved the family-friendly aspect of Seocho Garden. They have clearly been a staple for kbbq in the community. Four shining stars. We'll be back!
