    We shared: 1. Tangsuyuk 2. Jajangmyeon 3. Spiced Fried Chicken Wings 4. Mongolian Beef 5. Spiced Fried Pork Great portion size and flavors across the board. Jajangmyeon sauce had better black bean flavor than other versions I've had in the city. None of the meats were dry. Breading a little much on the fried pork dishes but still tasty overall. No issues with service. Cash and Zelle only.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a beautiful escape to a Chicago that rarely shows itself anymore.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This restaurant has a wonderful family restaurant feel and everyone from bussers to servers are just extremely kind.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The rare aesthetic is just sticking with me, I felt so calm and at peace here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The complimentary tea as well added to this! The food is out of this world. My friend and I love to get a variety of dishes and got quite a few vegetarian dishes at our meal. Everything was just incredible.The hot bean curd with pork was a standout.

    One of those local hole in the wall, Chinese places. Big portions, so come with others to share. Loved the black bean noodles, lollipop, chicken wings, and the Mongolian beef. Their seafood and vegetable dish was quite tasty as well. Service could be a bit spotty at times, but we got taken care of as we needed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely not a place where you feel rushed to leave your table, so great for a friend catch up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] FYI - cash only.

    I went here based on TikTok recommendations. Apparently this place got the best Black Bean Noodles and Sweet and Sour Pork. I ordered both dishes and I have to say they are pretty good. For the price, the portions were huge. The sweet and sour pork was so crispy. Next time I should ask them to put the sauce on side for dipping. Black bean noodles were well seasoned. Overall, I think the food is good. It wasn't mind blowing though so I wouldn't go out of my way for it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can tell that this place was opened for a long time by the decoration.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I like that there is plenty of parking.

    I'm always rooting for the mom & pop shops or hole in the wall discovery but honestly this was one of my worst experiences in a long time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was freezing single digits outside and when you step in the restaurant hoping for some warmth it still pretty cold inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bathroom was the worst. I felt like I was walking into the outhouse because it was the same temperature as outside & my felt terrible having my daughter pee in the cold.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Onto the meal itself - Cheese crab Rangoon - the wonton wrapper so damn thick Peking fried rice - okay and nice amount of toppings but it was mushy Sweet & Spicy Fried Chicken - chicken seems to be over-fried and the sauce just wasn't working for me. Great seas is so much better Cha Chuang Mein - what I was looking forward for be most but it was so flavorless. My daughter loved it because she loves plain food Then the service is nonexistent. We tried to get the attention but it seems like they purposely avoid you. We needed water, more napkins, our check to pay!!had to repeat our requests more than once. I can't put my trust in social media anymore because these 'influencers' be sending me off

    Cha Chiang Mein

    I have to be honest here... I was skeptical of coming to this place based on the appearance outside, but I saw so many reviews and tiktoks here that I had to try it. DO NOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER! The food was fantastic and well above my expectations! This is my second time ever having cha chiang mein, and I didn't enjoy it the first time I tried it somewhere else. This place does an amazing job with the cha chiang mein! It's warm, filling, and packed with flavor. You're paying only $10 for a huge bowl, and you can share it. The spicy fried chicken was also something I was skeptical about since I don't like my wings too saucy but the sauce was unbelievable! It gave it a nice kick and hint of sweetness. The crab rangoons were filled and crispy on the outside. They also gave us some yellow radish, kimchi, onions, and sauce on the side as a snack. The service was a 5/5 as well! The lady was extremely nice when taking our order, and they other bussers that checked in on us if we needed rice or boxed to-go. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I loved the ambiance in general as well. It feels like you're in a movie with the zodiac placemats, old chinese decor, bar/diner style seating with booths, and just the idea of mainly cash.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm definitely coming back here again to try other dishes!

    Peking Mandarin Restaurant is easily my favorite Chinese spot in Chicago. Their black bean noodles are hands down the best in the city. The Mongolian beef, sweet and sour pork, and gang pong gi are all incredible--just as good as Great Seas used to be back in the day. The service was fantastic; our server offered helpful recommendations that really elevated the meal. The only drawback is that they don't accept credit cards, so come prepared with cash. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Stepping inside the restaurant feels like a trip back to the '90s, bringing a wave of nostalgia and good vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you haven't tried PMR yet, you're missing out. The food speaks for itself--you'll be blown away.

    Chicken Pork in Spicy Garlic Sauce
    Rik U.

    We ordered from here and it was an awesome find! They have a lot of typical looking dish that I have not tried but I will talk about what I did order. First I got the egg rolls and my wife and I both agreed they were very good. I do think they could use a bit more Chinese five spice or something to make them a bit more flavorful. The chicken with spicy garlic sauce was very delicious and tasted fresh and I loved all the veg they added. A solid Chinese dish. The one thing that is great about this place is they master the Chinese and Korean dishes. The Cha Chiang Mien (Korean jajangmyeon noodles) is a popular dish here and it's no wonder. It is so decadent and amazing! Loved this so much!!! Also had something very unique and equally amazing and that was Spicy Noodle Platter with shrimp, squid, pork and veggies in a savory spicy sauce. This is really awesome! Probably one of my new favorite Asian dishes. I will try more of their food but this first experience was incredible! Yumm!!

    My friend saw a post on instagram and wanted to try the food. It was delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant on that alone. When we arrived we were told to sit anywhere we wanted; our order was taken right away and the food arrived soon after. The service was great up until my friend and I checked out. This restaurant does not take credit cards, only cash and zelle. That was not an issue. The issue I had was that one of the employees, assumably the manager or owner practically hovered over the table while my friend was actively trying to pay the bill. I kind felt as if she thought we going to try to run out the door without paying. She even asked if "we lived around here?." My friend and I are both black. I normally don't play the race card but I have to wonder if what she did this is something that is done with every patron who visits her establishment.

    Great hospitality and good food. Great to have this close by so you don't have to travel to Chinatown!

    Spiced Fried Chicken Wings
    Yining D.

    Feel conflicted about this place. Typically if a place has bad service, at least they're efficient. This place is neither efficient nor has good service. You're more of an after thought. The food is excellent though, like 5/5. I get why so many people order takeout from here, then they don't have to deal with the slow, in-efficient service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were 3 people working the floor on a Tuesday night and it was packed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll talk about the food first, because it really is noteworthy. The spicy fried chicken wings were perfectly crispy and the sauce was bomb. Definitely recommend getting this item. The spicy seafood noodle had the most delicious broth that had depth and was full of flavor. The noodles themselves were not that impressive, but the soup and the veggies and seafood in the soup were amazing. Ok, now about the service experience. It took quite some time before someone finally came over to take my order. Next, I had to ask 3 times in order to get a take out box. The first man totally ignored me. The Second lady just brushed me off. Then the owner finally directed the Second Lady to pack my food. When I went to pay, the owner printed my bill and then went off again to do tasks around the restaurant while I'm left standing there with the cash and bill. I asked the Second Lady if I'm good to go, and she said no. The owner was just going around the restaurant not at all interested in finishing up my bill. When I finally got her attention, she gave the approval to leave the restaurant. I was flabbergasted. I was going to give this restaurant a 5 even though the service was subpar, but this experience was definitely a unique one. It's like bad, inefficient service is just part of the overall experience here.

    Sweet and Sour Pork
    Alvin T.

    Made the trek north in hopes to find some jajangmyeon in Chicago and happened to find this place in my research. This feels like your typical Asian restaurant and combines both traditional Cantonese dishes and Korean dishes as well. I think the food is overall pretty decent and will fix your cravings of either Chinese or Korean food, I wouldn't say it will blow your mind, but will do the job. The jajangmyeon itself was very filling and was generous with the pork portions, the black bean sauce on the jajangmyeon definitely glistened in the light. The Chinese dishes I tried were average however and they provided very average banchan (kimchi didn't taste that fresh/good)

    Elliott K.

    Excellent "hole in the wall" wonderful people and just great food. Large portions for a good price. My first time trying jjajangmyeon and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Best sweet and sour pork in the city? May have dethroned my other personal favorite. They provided us with complimentary hot tea when we walked in on a cold winter day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the booths to the decor to the service, and food it felt like one giant hug[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I walked into Perilla fully intending to grab a few happy hour bites, call it a day, and maybe come…read moreback another time for the "real" experience. Then I saw the KBBQ menu and all bets were off. I immediately pivoted and ordered the chef's tasting set, the Diweji, featuring pork jowl, pork collar, and pork belly, complete with an assortment of banchan. Zero regrets. And here's the part that should tell you everything you need to know: I am a certified radish hater. I avoid it whenever possible. Yet somehow, I found myself repeatedly reaching for the radish banchan and asking for more. Even the soup - which also featured radish - was absolutely delicious. If Perilla can convert someone who actively dislikes radish into a fan for one meal, that's saying something. The soju was exactly what I wanted with Korean barbecue: crisp, clean, and refreshing. I appreciate that it was neutral rather than overly sweet. The flavored, sweeter versions aren't really my thing unless the food is setting my mouth on fire. Speaking of spice, the wings were good: juicy, well-executed, and satisfying but I kept wishing they packed a little more heat. They weren't spicy at all, and a bigger kick would have taken them from very good to unforgettable. As for the meats, the pork jowl was gloriously rich and fatty, exactly what you'd expect from that cut. The pork collar ended up being my favorite: flavorful, tender, and with just the right balance of meat and fat. The pork belly was comforting and familiar - the classic KBBQ staple done well, with beautifully rendered edges and that indulgent quality that makes it a crowd-pleaser for a reason. The set also came with potatoes that were unexpectedly delicious. My only complaint? It was far too much food for one person. The service deserves its own mention. Everyone was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. The entire meal was delivered with efficiency and a smile, making a solo diner feel completely comfortable lingering and enjoying the experience. What I thought would be a quick happy hour stop turned into one of my favorite meals.

We ordered a seafood soup, seafood pancake, and a salmon crunch roll. We quickly realized that this was an atypical Korean restaurant experience as we did not receive banchan and there were not many traditional options on the menu. I think that should've been our cue to go, but we stayed and were very disappointed. The service was extremely slow. We had to ask multiple times when it was coming, and when the food finally came out, it was underseasoned and the texture was very off. The seafood pancake tasted deep fried and had chunks of imitation crab. It had the texture of an unrisen focaccia. The soup was tasteless, and the salmon roll was drenched in mayo and eel sauce. They also gave us a "special" hot sauce that tasted like just a mix of sriracha and Tabasco. Small highlights: the ambiance was nice; it seemed clean. Waiter was nice enough. I hate giving bad reviews, but this was quite a shocking meal.

We both got the soup, but you need to add salt and pepper to the soup to make it to your liking.

The soups were warm, delicious, and soothing with the tender meat and delicate clear noodles. The service was great; it's run by an older Korean lady that seems so sweet when she comes to take your order and makes sure you enjoyed everything. She asked how everything was and even offered more side dishes since we finished it all. The ambiance is very simple there; you're seated and read off a menu on the wall. It's also cash only, so I'd make sure to bring cash! (There is an atm there just in case though). Additionally, there's a small parking lot if you're lucky to get a spot.

Perilla is a tastefully decorated restaurant, both loungey and rich, but still makes you feel like the joint is all for you. You know, 5 star service is such a lost art, it makes you forget how much you miss it when all of a sudden it happens to be right in front of you. Ricardo, our bartender, what a gem. Forget about the perfectly made drinks that were served to us. Ricardo made us feel right at home with his kind disposition and friendly demeanor. But it doesn't just stop at Ricardo. Everyone was absolutely fantastic. We could have been served 7-11 sushi at this point and I still would have left 5 stars. Food time. The kimchi pork dumplings were an absolute flavor bomb and that parmesan broth gave the dumplings a little extra kick that took it to the next level. Plus, I love when the dumpling wrapper has a little chew to it and isn't this soft mush that dissolves in your mouth. The beef fat frites were a nice treat as well. They were not extra or over the top in anyway. But you can tell when something is done well and correctly, just like these fries were. The Premium Steakhouse Set, in my opinion, is all two people need to enjoy this very special experience. All the accompanying condiments were exceptional on their own and could have functioned as their own course. The Japchae glass noodles were a stunner. The real sleeper was the chopped lettuce greens tossed in their chili vinaigrette. Could have eaten 20 bowls of those lettuce greens. Sadly, I forgot the name of our server who cooked and cut our meat for us. She really added to the experience.

I had just left the hotel across the street and wasn't exactly sure what I was in the mood for. I've walked past this place plenty of times but had never gone inside. Today felt like the right opportunity. I wasn't looking for a full meal, just a couple of small plates and a chance to unwind. The restaurant itself is beautifully designed. Even though I arrived about an hour before closing on a Saturday night, it was still busy, which is usually a good sign. The hostess greeted me right away and told me the wait would only be a few minutes. My server was excellent and made me feel welcome from the moment I sat down. I ordered the Brussels sprouts, the Korean fried chicken, and another appetizer that is admittedly difficult to describe, but it was delicious. Overall, the food was very good. The Brussels sprouts and the other appetizer were the standouts of the meal. The only dish that didn't quite measure up for me was the Korean fried chicken. It wasn't bad by any means, but it didn't have the same wow factor as the rest of the meal. That's really the reason for my three-star rating. Had I skipped the chicken, this easily would have been a four-star experience. The atmosphere, service, and most of the food were excellent. I just expected a little more from what should have been one of the restaurant's signature dishes.

And lastly the Hotteoks are a nice sweet n savory dessert. Favorite place in the neighborhood.

    Big fan of Chef Beverly, so had to check out Parachute Hi Fi when I was in town! Such an awesome,…read moreunique vibe for weeknight dinner! Some street parking available nearby. The space has such a fun, modern interior with records and other music decor lining the small space! Perfect spot for a date or small group. A live DJ was spinning various records during our visit, which I thought would be too loud, but was the perfect backdrop for our great dinner conversation. Staff were friendly, and didn't hang around too much, which was nice! The cocktails and food were the real deal! I had the Pineapple Upside Down Cake cocktail, which I thought would be SUPER sweet, but it was balanced and refined in the best way. Lovely take on a tropical cocktail. We shared the Korean Chicken Sandwich, the Burger, and the Bing Bread. Every single bite was delicious: fun take on a pizza with the Bing Bread, a fresh and light take on a Korean Chicken sandwich, and a deliciously savory burger with all my favorite toppings! The servings were perfect to share, so I'd grab a close friend, order up some drinks and plates, and just take in the chill vibe! So glad we stopped!

    Run to Parachute HiFi! Chef Beverly Kim's recent appearance on America's Culinary Cup made me want…read moreto try her latest rendition of Parachute, Parachute HiFi. It's a more relaxed concept than the OG, serving Korean inspired bar food and inventive cocktails. While I liked the original Parachute, I am obsessed with Parachute HiFi. You must order the bing bread. It's what they are known for, and for good reason. It reminded me of a large doughy pizza roll, in the best way. I was also in love with the tapioca fritters with pepper jelly. The texture of the tapioca fritter was so unique and fun, and the pepper jelly was seriously out of this world. Bottle that stuff up and sell it! Whoever said the ttebokki pad Thai didn't taste like pad thai was wrong - it does and was a satisfying dish that I'd order again! I love twists on a classic and it was so smart to use rice cakes instead of the traditional noodles. The cocktails all sounded amazing, especially having names like pineapple upside down cake and black sesame. They got me intrigued for sure. Both cocktails were well balanced and enjoyable. Can't wait to return to try more from the menu (like that burger!)
