Kimchi Pop By Chef Son - Chicago

Very good vegetarian options! We got the glass noodles and the soondupu stew. Both very flavorful

The place is great! It isn?t your typical Korean joint, but it does have a simple menu with the basics covered. Honestly, it makes all the difference that the menu has allergies like gluten listed. I?ve tried a bit of everything on the menu and it allholds up in terms of quality. It?s all tasty, consistent, and best of all in the neighborhood. The one weakness that is a bit oftrade off is the banchan. You serve yourself in the restaurant, which is awesome, but the selection is limited and the qualityvaries compared to a more typical Korean joint.

I would give more than 5 stars if I could. I could experience the original taste of Korean food in this restaurant. very recommended 치 짬뽕. the employees were also very nice.

Tried the ddukbokki with cheese and the cheese dakgalbi and it was honestly amazing. We ask for mild spice on both and it was spot on. The ddukbokki has an amazing sweet and spicy taste that I will definitely crave constantly lol.The recipes are all made by the owner, who’s really nice with staff and customers. Great customer service and amazing food ?

Their tteokbokki was pretty good, a little sweet but I did ask for extra spicy and did help a little. Super kind and not super expensive but not cheap either. I really liked it.
