    Bulgogi Kimbop
    Karyn M.

    I dropped in for kimbop but K-bop is so much more. There's bibim-bop, k-bop, burri- bop and other dishes, the possibilities don't stop! It was a little confusing, the order process, during my stop. The bulgogi was a little dry in the kimbop although the pork belly kimbop was tip-top. The filling of pickles and veggies made a colorful photo opp. I'll return to try some other dishes next time.

    The menu can be slightly confusing here but once you figure that out then it's easy. The idea is cute and I wanted to like this place more but the items we got were just basic and nothing too amazing. I liked the bulgogi kimbop best. My son also had a triangle kimbop that had tuna and mayo which was good, too. The chicken was good but for 13$ I didn't think it was anything spectacular. Food came out quick and they did have several self serve options with some pickled radish and cabbage. When one of the dishes in our party came out wrong they did go ahead and remake it right away without us even asking for it, so that was nice. Giving an extra star for good service.

    A solid in-hotel, take-out Korean meal while in Glenview, IL. The business is slowly expanding beyond its small community here and opening up more restaurants, and supporting this business while in town felt just right! When looking for places to eat out at, this description on their website had pulled us in: WE STARTED K-BOP TO SHARE STORIES THROUGH THE LENS OF KOREAN STREET FOOD. Currently, there are so many great things coming out of Korea that inspire change or simply bring joy to our lives. During the 2021 pandemic, we started K-Bop in the Chicago suburb to keep sharing our greatness. K-KIMBOP: The rolls were thicccck. It honestly was a perfect selection of veggies inside with a kick of chili seasoning and soy sauce to dip into. You get more than you ask for with this roll! TOFU KIMCHI K-BOP: The meal that makes this place special. The business started making these deconstructed kimbop bowls, calling them 'k-bop' bowls. You also get a full serving of this meal and we ended up really craving a second bowl!! Aesthetics, service, the purpose of this business, and the meal altogether really made this place shine and 1110000% a hole-in-the-wall spot in Glenview, IL!

    I'm glad that they decided to extend their hours. They used to close before 5 pm and that was vexing. We came here for a late lunch. If you got a 30 min or hour lunch break, then this place is great for that. Service was fine. Food was good. We got a variety. Some of the ingredients are no longer on the current menu fyi. Prices are reasonable. There is parking but they share it with other places next door. -pork cutlet tong bop 5/5 - this one is my favorite. It's like a burrito and that crunch was perfect. -bulgogi kimbop 5/5 -fried chicken kbop 5/5

    I recently discovered this place by accident. I'm very happy that I stumbled across it. The inside has plenty of seating and is very clean. It was a bit smoky inside but not enough to drive me away. The service was quick, friendly, and helpful. These K-bop bowls might be my new OBSESSION. The balance of flavors, ingredients, and seasoning is PERFECT. I ended up going back 3 times within a week and trying different combinations. There is not a single bad option in my opinion but the bulgogi was my favorite. Overall this is a hidden gem of Chicagoland food and I highly recommend you making your way here ASAP.

    The kimbap here is amazing. The rice is soft and well-seasoned, and the fillings are fresh and flavorful. I tried the classic vegetable kimbap, and the mix of crunchy carrots, crisp cucumbers, and savory egg was perfect. It is light but satisfying, and I will definitely be back for more.

    Pork cutlet gimbop
    Connie K.

    Came here on a weekday afternoon for lunch and there was one other table taken at the time (there were more people getting takeout). I had the cheese tteokbokki and hubby had a chicken tong bop (seaweed base rice wrap (lettuce, cabbage, carrot, corn, green onion, crab salad, seaweed salad, fried onion, egg scramble, avocado). We also shared a pork cutlet kimbop. The tteokbokki was bright red and I was afraid it would be too spicy but it was the perfect spice level. I do wish that they had a rose tteokbokki but the flavor was good. Hubby enjoyed his tong bop but it was pretty messy and he took it apart to eat it. The pork cutlet kimbop was decent. We will be back to try other menu items!

    Avocado Bibim-Bop
    Matea P.

    As I'm actively taking the steps to become more familiar with the Korean cuisine, my childlike wonder led me to stumble upon K-bop, a street food restaurant wedged between a dry cleaning place and a nail art studio in a faded strip mall. I learned that Bibimbop is one of the most well-known and traditional dishes you could try, so I couldn't go without ordering the Avocado one. Simply put, it was incredible. You had the warm chewy rice, crunchy vegetables, crispy fried egg, and a deeply flavorful gochujang sauce that will really have you fall in love with this bowl. And because all of the ingredients were so wholesome, you had the sensation that you were getting healthier with every bite. I also learned that Kimbop is sometimes mistakenly referred to as sushi, but to do that would undercut its rich history and flavor. The Fried Shrimp one that we ordered was great. Biting into it, you'll notice the crispy battered tempura shrimp, the pop of cucumber, and the glossy/smooth seaweed that's holding everything together for dear life. K-bop is awfully good, and taught me to take a closer look at the streets I drive by every single day.

    Tried Tuna Mayo recently. It was packed with tuna, very generous portions. Though it is on the sweeter side. We still really liked it, but probably prefer the pork belly, fried chicken ones more!

    Love love love K-bop! They have so many great choices but I love their K-bop and their burri-bop. I usually get the spicy pork or the spicy chicken in either form. They also have really good kim-bop as well as ramen. This place is nestled among several restaurants and is not too assuming. You have to know about the place to really get the drift of what it serves. The dining area offers both communal bar stool seating and sit down tables. The atmosphere is pretty chill and 5he service is welcoming. I recently visited in December and they have a Christmas tree up and playing Christmas music on the speakers. Nice touch to be in the holiday spirit. They also have free private parking ample for the occupancy.

    Bulgogi bibimbop and T-6. Fresh Salmon Tong-Bop
    Tricia D.

    K-bop is my new favorite discovery for comfort food in the neighborhood by means of Korean street food staples! If you take anything away, it's that this place is a triple threat: fresh, tasty food, great value, and convenient! The menu is overwhelming at first, but there's sections for smaller (K-bop) rice bowls, bigger bibimbop rice bowls, tortilla wraps, and seaweed rice wraps (or sushirritos, as I call them)! You can choose from an assortment of fillings for each option, like spicy pork, bulgogi, fresh salmon, or shrimp. The back of the menu has appetizers, noodles, and fried chicken listed, though the staffer told me fried chicken isn't available yet. Pro tip: noodles are available for dine in only (darn, as we wanted udon on our last to go order)! I've been here 3x in the last couple months and gotten a T6 salmon sushirrito each time! For $12, it's a great deal and lasts me two meals. On our last visit, our party also tried the hearty seafood pancake, rice balls ($4.99 each), bibimbop, and a bulgogi rice bowl. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot! They're closed on Tuesdays, but hours are 7am-9pm every other day! Stop on by!

    Do you have vegan options or vegetarian options but with no egg, meat, fish, shrimp?

    You can ask them to remove the ingredients you don't want when you order. There are also vegetarian menus such as avocado gimbop, tofu k-bop, and tofu bibimbop menus. Thank you.

    Close on Wednesdays now?

    The K-bop closed a little earlier today. Thank you

The servers kept passing by our table and going to other tables even when we notified them we needed a server. I started with the Screwkiss Cocktail and my guy had the Melona Cocktail. Considering they had whole popsicles in them, it wasn't surprising they were on the sweeter side. However, mine took forever and a half to melt; I even had to use a spoon to try and mash it faster. Fun drink, but wouldn't get it again. The complimentary bean sprout soup was light and refreshing. We started with the Stir-Fried Chicken Gizzards. It was much more rough/tough than expected. It was my first time having it and I liked the flavor, but the texture was mehh. My guy said he's always had gizzards that were softer and preferred it like that. The Beef Brisket with Mung Bean Sprout was really good! My favorite dish for sure! It was perfectly cooked and flavored and definitely a 5/5 for me. I got a side of Glass Noodles to eat with it, but I didn't like these noodles. Glass noodles are one of my fave noodles normally. The Army Stew with Ramen Noodles was good, but the flavor was pretty monotonous so it got boring fast. Their kimchi was okay and I wish it didn't have some of the ingredients like the pepperoni. We got a side order of Tteokbokki and it was a really great choice with this dish!

However, the price was a bit much for this I'd say. Beef tartar: 3 of 5 As there was nothing to special to it. Wouldn't get it a second time. I'd say the trip was disappointing for our party of 5 and what we got didn't match the quality of other gopchang restaurants in LA. For me who did not eat intestines I'd say it's a 3 of 5 place, but I'd say the value for the intestines based on what my party ate was more of a 2 of 5 as it was mostly grease that overwhelmed everything with no meaningful way to reduce it.

For the 5 of us, we ordered the double portion of large intestines, beef tartar, and the bulgogi hotpot. The presentation of food initially was great. I've been to gopchang restaurants in Koreatown in Los Angeles and in Korea. I have not been to one that cooks gopchang in a grill with no outlet for oil drainage. For something greatly oily, it felt uncomfortable seeing it cook in an abundance of its own oil. The restaurant's lackluster solution to all of this oil was to dunk in large pieces of bread to soak it up. This not only looked very unappetizing but was not a successful solution. Additionally, letting the gopchang cook in its own oil, left the gopchang to be "fried" crisp and hard. The bulgogi hotpot had a good amount of meat and vegetables, but was way too sweet. They gave a small bowl of chive salad to a group of 5 of us to share, which we were each able to get very small portions of. They charge extra if you want more chive salad. Overall, a very disappointing experience, could not recommend.

Our Combo was $100 and included miso or seaweed soup, rice, banchan and four kinds of meat: marinated bulgogi, short rib, ribeye and brisket. Delicious Delicious. The banchan was tasty tasty. I especially liked the pickled cucumber and the kimchi. Some of the reviews said they were charged extra for refills on the banchan dishes. We were not. What a feast. The server loaded up our grill with brisket and would leave and come back to flip things or turn things although we were pretty capable of doing it ourselves.
