I had a very good experience here! I am typically a Panera regular from down the way, but I was aiming for something with less calories. It was my first time trying Bibibop, and it delivered. The food was fresh and really yummy. The "small" size was really filling for me, and packed with my selections. It felt like I was getting my money's worth. The strawberry-hibiscus lemonade was also really good. I had ordered ahead of time to lesson the wait, in the event there would be, and the girl that had greeted me was really polite. I must have looked really out of place because she directed me to the pickup shelf. That was really helpful. As for the atmosphere of the restaurant, it was very good. I went in the morning, so it wasn't as busy. I stayed from 10:40 to noon ish. I think my only quarrel with the space is that there aren't any charging ports. But that's not a reason to avoid going. Just remember to charge your devices if you plan on doing work there while eating. read more

Enjoyed a great lunch at Bibibop! I chose the fan favorite bowl and added pickled onion and it was such a filling lunch. I loved the mix of the sweet potato glass noodles with the purple rice and the chicken was so fresh and tender. The staff at this location was very friendly too and the tables were all clean! Will definitely return. read more

BIBIBOP Asian Grill - BIBIBOP FAN FAVORITE - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oak Brook, Illinois

Unfortunately, I have to drop down my score for this particular location. I went 2x in a week to give them a shot. I went at different times of the day as well. First visit was probably within 30 minutes of opening and they were already out of many items. I noticed a large catering order getting placed, group of individuals waiting for online orders, and door dashers. They were using several of the tables to fulfill the catering order. The back of the house just appeared chaotic as staff were scrambling to refill items. One staff person was trying to handle the line and he looked like he was drowning. My second visit was between lunch and dinner times, so it was less crowded. However, once again staff seemed to be scrambling. It was almost like no one wanted to help guests in line. So overall, I think if you are doing mobile order to go, then ok. However, if you are wanting to dine in, my last 2 visits were not very friendly. read more

Do not eat here - they're serving kale that has gone bad. I tried to call the restaurant and the gentleman I spoke to did not apologize at all - he tried to tell me it was totally normal and just kale "from the bottom of the container." Currently waiting for a manager to come in and call me back. This is absolutely disgusting practices for a restaurant. read more

This is my hands down favorite fast food place! The ingredients are sooo fresh, so healthy, and delicious! The price is so reasonable, filling, and they always have promotions and a rewards program. The service at this location is amazing!!! They make eye contact, smile, take their time, explain the menu, give recommendations, and overall warm. The dinning area is clean! Look at that large piece of yummy salmon! 5 stars!! read more

Found the restaurant as hot and new restaurants in the area, food was amazing! You can put just about everything! The food was definitely fresh! The kale a super clean, no Sandy taste or texture. Potatoes were so yummy. Only thing I would suggest is to keep the protein at a hotter temperature. The food was less than warm. The best welcoming amazing great customer service from Kami. We will definitely visit any other location. I work out a lot and this is great healthy choice read more

Loyal Customer, But This Location Has Completely Lost My Trust... I've been a loyal customer at the Oak Brook BIBIBOP since it opened in 2023 -- over $1,200 spent so far ($137.69 in 2025, $439.09 in 2024, $669.70 in 2023). I'm not sharing that to brag -- I feed a large family, and this has been one of our go-to spots. I mention it to show how one reckless employee can damage both a brand's reputation and its financial bottom line. I used to love this place... until my recent visit completely changed that. I placed a mobile order and arrived a few minutes after the pickup time. My order wasn't on the shelf (which isn't unusual here), so I asked an employee -- the one shown in my attached photo/videos -- for help. What should've been a quick lookup turned into a total headache. I provided my name, confirmation number, and even showed my order email, yet he insisted it wasn't in the system. When he asked to hold my phone and I politely declined, his attitude instantly changed, and he claimed he would no longer help me. Seriously -- when did it become mandatory for people to hold your personal device? The whole idea of mobile and contactless ordering came from avoiding unnecessary contact during a global health crisis. I'm not a germaphobe, but keep your crusty hands off my device. This is exactly where true management leadership makes the difference. A real manager would have offered an apology for the inconvenience, checked the system, and if the order truly wasn't found, simply remade the meal on the spot. Instead, this employee escalated things for no reason -- and unbelievably, tried to have me trespassed by the Oak Brook Police Department. My video shows everything, from the counter interaction to the parking lot. When I returned after running a quick errand, the officer was already inside. He met me at the door holding my meal. I asked if it was safe to eat -- and he said he couldn't answer that. There's no way I was eating anything from this location after that interaction, so I donated it to a local shelter instead. Throughout the conversation with the officer, the same employee kept coming out and antagonizing the situation, even after being told to stay separate -- completely unprofessional. To make matters worse, no one in the store wears name tags, making accountability impossible. I was handed a generic business card and told to "follow up," which I plan to do. If anyone in the Yelp community or at corporate can identify the individual in my photo/videos, please do. He needs to be retrained, put on probation, or let go -- before more customers experience the same. And please, stop blaming "POS technical issues." You have a mobile app -- step up your game. These excuses are outdated and do nothing but frustrate loyal customers who just want the food they paid for. After thinking about it, I realized I can make most of their food at home anyway. Honestly, I've always had quiet concerns about food quality here -- there's been more than one occasion where I found something questionable in my bowl. After spending this much money and receiving zero kindness, empathy, or basic customer care, walking away from this location is surprisingly easy. And for the record -- they never actually trespassed me. But I'm done. read more

BIBIBOP Asian Grill - Who is this employee? He needs to be retrained and put on probation, or let go to reduce future negative exposure. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oak Brook, Illinois

Fast and friendly customer service, nutritious and delicious food. What more could I ask for? This was like an Asian fusion version of Chipotle. Lots of fresh veggies and nutritious toppings to choose from. The price was reasonable too. read more

Finding this place made me so happy! Being gluten-free and traveling can make it difficult to find good food sometimes depending on the city. So while visiting Oakbrook, Illinois -- I walked in, hoping that I would find one or two dishes that were gluten-free and found out that everything there is gluten-free. Woohoo! Way to go BIBIBOP!! They use gluten-free tamari sauce to cook and to make their sauces. That said, it seems to be after chipotle where you choose a base of rice, noodles or salad, and then add a protein and then toppings/vegetables and sauce. I got the spicy chicken on a salad base, and added beans, broccoli, carrots, cucumber, cabbage and Kimchi. And then added the Yum Yum. Most of the sides you can have as much as you want except for things like avocado, which is more expensive so they charge a bit extra. After we paid for our food, we realized that there was a big pot of miso soup that you can help yourself to, which was a bonus !! The miso soup was a nice, hot treat on a cool, rainy day, with a mild flavor that could be ideal for those who prefer something not so spicy. BIBIBOP way exceeded my expectations. My son who is not gluten-free really enjoyed his meal also. We are both foodies. Also, I want to give a shout out to Kami who worked there. She was very kind and helpful and happened to be the person that told me that everything was gluten-free so I was super excited. Thanks Kami for helping to make it such a memorable experience. And thanks to Bibibop for being with the times and offering so many amazing gluten-free options. I will definitely look for this restaurant in other cities. Unfortunately, it's not where I live yet. read more

I was disappointed in the food and the experience. BIBIBOP is an attempt to "Chipotle-ize" Korean food. Don't expect traditional Bibimbap served in a stone bowl, with a fried egg and a large dollop of Gochujang to mix in with your rice. Still, for decent fresh food, served hot, this is worth checking out. read more

My new favorite fast casual spot! I've seen more and more of these pop up and now I understand the hype. There are a few pre-made bowls to choose from or you can walk through the assembly line and create your own. I created my own with a base of half sweet potato noodles and half purple rice. The rice was a tad dry and clumpy but both were great! I did the chicken as my protein and added a whole bunch of toppings - kale, carrots, egg, red cabbage, cucumbers, and pineapple. The pineapple was extra which the server kindly reminded me before adding to my bowl which was thoughtful. I also got a side of teriyaki sauce. The portion was very filling. The assembly line and tables were very clean. All the ingredients looked so fresh! The employees were friendly, quick, and helpful. Overall a great experience! read more

What great food! I had chicken with purple rice and vermicelli. I had lots of veggies. Pineapple and avocado are $1.50 extra for each. I didn't realize this before I ordered them. Service was friendly and professional. The service woman behind the counter was chipper with us and completed the bowl for me and the dude at the same time. As always, dude had soda from the machine and I had current iced tea with lemonade. It's great! Casual ambiance fits the food and general mood. read more

Who doesn't love Bibibop?! As a long time goer of Bibibop at their other locations, this Oak Brook location reigns supreme. I've been here quite a few times since they opened and every time it was a hit. The staff here is constantly making fresh food. There's never anything cold, stale, or old. They have it displayed nicely, as well, and differently from other locations (served from tins/big bowls as opposed to Chipotle-style where it's in the countertop like some other Bibibop locations). This space itself is quite large with more than enough seating inside. Parking is conveniently right outside, along with their outdoor patio with a few tables. The food... hold my drink. I could go on and on about Bibibop. I absolutely love their steak, spicy chicken, yum yum sauce, literally all their sides, their miso soup - like I said, I could go on and on. I seriously get every single side on my bowl besides pineapple, and always have to get it drizzled with their yum yum sauce and teriyaki sauce. Did I mention their miso soup is complimentary, as well? You get a lot of food for a good price, too, and like I said earlier, it's always fresh. It's hard to find a place like Bibibop; I truly hope they expand even more all over Illinois and the USA because everyone needs to be trying this. You already know I'll be back for lunch or dinner soon! read more

I got the BIBIBOP Fan Favorite with a few tweaks. Sweet Potato Noodles, Purple Rice, Chicken, Broccoli, black beans, Carrots, Cheese, Corn, and ginger sesame sauce. I loved it! I'm definitely getting this combination again. Reminds me of an Asian chipotle. It also felt similar to stir fry restaurants even though it's not stir fried. Very open space, clean, and friendly employees. Lemonade was also tasty! read more

So happy to see Bibibop open up in more places. Fast casual Korean food bowls are great for lunch or dinner. You can order a small or original size bowl, and they'll both be plenty filling. I love that you can basically order bibimbap or you can customize the bowl to your liking. You can get white or purple rice, japchae noodles, or lettuce as your base. I personally like the japchae noodles and some purple rice. They have Korean BBQ beef which is bulgogi, but also offer steak, chicken, spicy chicken, tofu, or just veggie. So many options and toppings too! The interior is nice and spacious and there's outdoor seating with umbrellas. I'm a big fan of this place, and love coming back for more. read more

So happy there is one closer to us. Thank you oak Brook! I think it was meant to be delicious the minute I looked at the gorgeous blue sky above. This is a build it & stand in line place. They have tofu, meat, gluten free and organic food here. Multiple options, build your own, pick one and add to it or just pick one. I had the sweet potato noodle, tofu with kimchi, sesame kale, black beans, cabbage, teriyaki and ginger sesame oils. It was ammmmmazing! I have to admit. The bowl is big. I ate it. Since it's not a flour noodle I wasn't stuffed. I grabbed some of the chicken bowls for my family. The nice thing is it's different from all the other chipotle kind a places. Different food, great price $11 for a large bowl. No brainer really I'll be coming back . read more

Racist and extremely terrible cust servic. They did not even acknowledge as I came in the door to ask if I need . no other customers in the store and no one behind the counter would even acknowledge me to pick up order. Looked me right in my face even as I asked for help and would not even respond. Then the one who was on the phone was extremely condescending. I wish it was an option to put zero stars read more

I've been wanting to try this for so long! I live close to the one in Naperville, which hasn't opened yet, and so this was a perfect opportunity to see what it's like. The restaurant is similar to Chipotle/Subway/Naf Naf, where you choose your base, protein and toppings. Everything is fresh, great portions and lots of spice and tang level options. The space is also great - with a large indoor dininig section and outdoor. Staff were very kind and they have a ton of drink options. I am definitely adding this to my rotation of restaurants that I visit regularly. read more

This was my first time here so I did not know what to expect, but wow what a fantastic quick lunch option. They had a pretty decent patio which was half full at 11:45 on a Monday. The place overall was really clean and the order process was easy to follow. I opted to build my own bowl using the sweet potato noodles, which have a very nice subtle sweetness and flavor, and went a little out of my comfort zone adding kimchi, kale, and purple cabbage which all added a great crunch. The stars of the show are the spicy chicken and the incredibly tasty sesame ginger sauce. They both have way more flavor than i was expecting. The woman building my bowl was very patient, and cashier was so friendly and welcoming. I cannot wait to come back for lunch and sit outside next time read more

Bibibop is one of my new favorite places. The food is fresh and flavorful and the staff is super nice. As soon as you walk in there are signs explaining the concept and how everything is Gluten Free! I ordered a "Build your Own" Bowl . You choose a base so I chose white rice. Then hot toppings so I chose black beans and broccoli. Then you can choose some cold toppings such as corn,carrots,cheese,cucumber,eggs,kimchi,kale or picked red cabbage. Top it off with protein such as Korean BBQ,Spicey Chicken,Steak,Chicken or Tofu. There are a variety of sauces you can either put on the bowl or on the side. I had the teriyaki sauce with sesame ginger on the side. The combination was delicious. There is plenty of parking and indoor/outdoor seating. I will definitely be back! read more

Happy First Anniversary to Bibibop Oak Brook! I am very happy that Bibibop opened this location. Everyone on the staff is friendly and engaging. The food is fantastic and healthy. The décor is fresh and inviting and I like the layout of the tables at this location. If you haven't tried Bibibop yet, I would encourage you to check it out. You pick the size of the entrée you would like, then walk alongside the front of the counter as the cheerful employee builds your bowl. You pick your base (noodles, rice, or greens), then hot toppings (like roasted broccoli or potatoes), cold toppings (like carrots, corn, or cheese), protein (like chicken, steak, or tofu), and sauce (like Yum Yum or teriyaki). This restaurant is so perfect for someone like me. I have been eating gluten free for about ten years. I don't have to worry about cross-contamination since Bibibop is 100% gluten free. And as a vegetarian, I appreciate that they offer an all-veggie option or tofu. Also, I don't drink soda, so I appreciate the area next to the soda machine with three iced tea flavors and three lemonades. You can drink them individually, but I like to mix them together. My favorite is Mixed Berry Omija Tea combined with Hibiscus Lemonade. And if you are watching calories, the Black Current Tea is really flavorful and has just two calories per serving. Thank you for the year of delicious, craveable food and great memories. I can't say enough about how I appreciate Team Bibibop Oak Brook for bringing the great flavors, the friendly smiles, the attention to detail, and all of the hard work that comes with offering so many freshly-prepped veggies and other ingredients on the menu. read more

I arrived during lunch time around noon on a Thursday afternoon and it was packed. The line was pretty long. The setup reminds me of chipotle where you tell them what you want as you go. I got the original bowl with purple rice, sweet potato noodles, organic tofu, kimchi, cucumber, cheese, corn, with sesame ginger sauce and it was good but a bit bland. I wish they gave me more sauce. It was fresh ingredients and if you're looking for a healthier bowl, definitely give them a try. read more

This is one of the newer spots that just opened up across from Costco facing Cermak and the food is delicious! I got the build your own with half sweet potato noodles and half purple rice, bean sprouts, carrots, broccoli, corn, kale and tofu. I got the gochujang sauce on top and side of kimchi also. Tofu was cooked perfect and had a slight kick to it! The kimchi was perfect (and I'm super picky bout kimchi). The sauce was actually super delicious and flavorful too, and not too salty like other places sauces are. My daughter is super picky me she got a build your own with rice, some basic veggies and the spicy chicken and she ate every bite of her bowl lol I also got the hibiscus lemonade and I love that it was not overly sweet. Staff was also super helpful in showing us the process me was very patient with us. We will def be back! read more

Why I was compelled to give 5 stars Bibibop is a wonderful dining destination for those seeking healthy and delicious food options. The restaurant's menu offers a variety of fresh ingredients and flavorful choices, making it a go-to spot for health-conscious individuals. The standout element of Bibibop is undoubtedly its serachi sauce, which adds a delightful kick to the dishes. The restaurant's ambiance is equally impressive, with ample outdoor seating providing a pleasant dining experience. The walls are adorned with tasteful decorations that create a welcoming and vibrant atmosphere. staff, provide friendly and efficient service. read more

I've eyeballed this restaurant on Uber eats for months! It always looked too healthy to be tasty, but today I got the chance to dine at Bibibop in person and boyy was I wrong. Not only is their food healthy, but it taste divine. I choose to build a custom bowl. I added spicy chicken, sweet potato noodles, potatoes, purple rice, kimchee, corn, cheese, broccoli, and a little black bean. Last but definitely not least, I added the ginger teriyaki sauce which elevated the entire dish. They had multiple refreshing lemonade & teas. I mixed sweetened green tea, passionfruit lemonade, & mixed berry omija tea. The servers were patient and friendly. They gave my mom and I compliments on our smiles and feedback when we were unsure what to add to our bowls. The ambiance was nice. I liked the exposed ductwork. It gave a modern industrial vibe. The weather was beautiful, so we decided to enjoyed our meal on the outside covered patio. Needless to say, but this will definitely be going in the Uber eats rotation when I feel like being a homebody. read more

The food was amazing. This is truly a Chipotle of Asian restaurants. Everything was fresh, clean, and very flavorful. The choices of beverages were amazing and the passion, fruit lemonade. It was my absolute favorite. We had never been to a BIBIBOP and weren't quite sure what to do or order. It was a little more complicated because none of the employees spoke English. But now I know what to do. I will most definitely be back.. the service was quick and the restaurant was clean and brand new.. 5 stars from me! read more

BIBIBOP Asian Grill - Korean bbq beef - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oak Brook, Illinois

Anytime my partner and I are trying to decide where to get take-out from, Bibibop is always on the shortlist. I cannot speak to the ordering in restaurant as we always place mobile orders but the food is always hot and ready when we come to pick it up. I love how customizable the bowls are and how good they taste/make me feel. I feel like I'm putting tasty and healthy food into my body. The portions are always huge and I feel like I get my money's worth. I highly recommend the sweet potato noodles as they are the best thing on the menu hands down. I always bring my family here where when they visit from out of state and they always request we come here! read more

A fresh take on fast casual Korean bowls. It's build your own bowls like chipotle. I had the spicy chicken with Japchae base and every side they had because why not it's the end of year and it's been a long time since I had bibibop. I liked it overall. Although the next day my leftovers weren't good. The service was good and restaurant was clean. They charge $1 something extra for sides of pineapple and avocado. I wish they had closer locations in the suburbs. Until next time. read more

The best Chipotle I've ever eaten, also Korean. Fresh ingredients, quick, friendly service, and a lot of food for the price and quality. We got 2 regular bowls - "spicy" chicken and bbq beef loaded with most of the options on them. Bbq beef was amazing, definitely the better of the 2 but costs a little more. Chicken was good too but the protein is around 1/6 of the bowl and the topping options great. Good glass noodles, weird purple rice, kimchi, corn, broccoli, cabbage, eggs, cheese, etc. Lots of sauce options, i usually get gochujang and yum yum sauce. Only issue is it is half salad, half rice/ protein bowl so it isn't as good reheated and kinda turns to mush. Obviously not their fault, just something to consider. Also comes with free miso soup, one of the best value restaurants there is. Our server Trease? was fantastic. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area read more

I LOVE Bibibop. This place is an absolute gem. The workers are always so lovely, and they are very efficient. There is usually a bit of a line, but with how quick the workers are, it always goes by quickly and the little bit of a wait is worth it. I have tried a few different bowls, and you can honestly not go wrong. They are all delicious and the ingredients taste really fresh. They always have different types of fruit teas to try and they're all very tasty. This is one of my staple places to eat! read more

Someone said this is like a Korean version of Chipotle and I couldn't describe it better! They have tons of different options for the base, toppings, and proteins. I got a regular sized bowl with sweet potato noodles, black beans, bean sprouts, corn, sesame kale, carrots, red cabbage and kimchi, spicy chicken for protein, and gochujang/teriyaki sauce. I LOVEEE sweet potato noodles, it was cooked perfectly and chewy! As for the toppings, I really enjoyed all, especially the sesame kale and kimchi. The egg looked very interesting.. so I decided to pass but regretted it, my partner got a steak & noodle bowl that came with egg and it was so good! Lol like shredded pieces of egg but it works hahah. The hibiscus lemonade was delicious and refreshing, not too sweet. My only minor minor minor complaint was when pouring the sauces, I asked for a little of each (teriyaki and gochujang) but she drenched my bowl, so my meal was very saucy at the bottom lol. Also mixed up the sauces my partner asked for but it's ok! Overall very impressed by the food and would come back :) read more

I wasn't expecting much from this Chipotle style Korean inspired spot, but having visited several times now I can say that it's great. Located in the new Oak Brook plaza off 22nd between Costco and Kingery Hwy, it's a quick and casual spot. Pick your bowl size, choose your base (salad, rice, noodle), various veggie banchans, sauces, and meat topper and BOOM your done. Love they offer Korean purple rice. While I thought the broccoli and potatoes were random offerings, I found it makes a great filler and I seem to find myself dipping these the most into the various sauces they have to offer. For now, I've only tried their beef options (traditional steak and Korean BBQ beef) yet they do also offer chicken, spicy chicken and tofu options. Anyways, as I mentioned it's a casual spot. Inside is still all shiny and new feeling. Be sure to download their app to take advantage of specials and ordering ahead. That's all I got on this one. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

Bibibop! Not just a fun name to say, but really quality food. I created my own bowl, and got purple rice, noodles, beans, kale, broccoli, carrots, cucumbers, potatoes, pineapple, kimchi, spicy chicken, tofu, and mixed the yum yum sauce with the gochujang sauce. Gochujang has a bit of spice but not overwhelming while the yum yum toned it down. I loved everything about this bowl, and it was even good as leftovers. The restaurant itself is clean; the workers were very friendly and helpful in recommendations. They also have a good selection of beverages, I got the mixed berry tea with a splash of passion fruit lemonade. Yum! I'm excited for the Naperville location to open up as it's a bit closer to me. But when I'm in the Oak Brook area and looking for a healthier quick option--this will be at the top of my list! read more
