Probably one of the best restaurants in the Loyola neighborhood area. The burger is always a solid choice, but I also recommend the chicken katsu bowl and the spicy potsticker appetizer. Best flaky fries!! read more

Great service and even better food. I can confidently say that I was against tofu until I tried this restaurant. I ordered the Fire Tofu Bowl and I highly recommend, especially if you like some spice. The tofu was soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside. I also ordered the bowl with a fried egg on top which definitely enhanced the dish. So buss read more

Bop N Grill - FIRE TOFU BOWL - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Rating: 4.5 for originality and good food... :) I came here on a Saturday evening with a few friends to grab a bite..there wasn't a wait upon arrival, but it did start to get packed after we ordered... even if there's a wait.. it's nice because there's a waiting area so you can sit and wait for the food as you look for a table or if you're just picking up food to go.. perfect place to come on a first date!! (jk or am i?) .. for the guys: if the girl (your date) doesn't order a burger/eat a burger in front of you when you come here.. it means they're not comfortable around you yet...and if they do eat it.. it's messy to eat so don't judge them!! :) for the girls: don't judge the guy for being too messy when eating a burger here... :) ok anyways.. foood critic time!! Bibim burger: contains veggies, sweet & spicy chili sauce, fried egg, nori, scallions..it tasted good.. just like bibim bap minus the bap on a bun and very filling..very messy to eat though.. bNg burger: contains fried egg, 1000 island, jalapenos, sharp cheddar, bacon, romaine lettuce, grilled onions and tomatoes.. my friend tried this burger and said it was spicy but good... so if you can't spicy food..ask for the jalapenos on the side maybe... umami burger: contains truffled mushroom, sun-dried tomato, togarashi mayo, bacon, smoked gouda..my friend tried this burger and said it tasted good... kimchee burger: for all the kimchee fans..contains caramelized kimchi, fried egg, sharp cheddar, bacon, kimchi mayo, shredded cabbage.. my friend tried this and said it was too much kimchee for her... so unless you LOVE kimchee.. maybe you shouldn't get this burger until you have tried the other burgers.. kimchee fries: contains caramelized kimchi, cheese sauce, bacon, scallions, sesame seed...they were delicious..the fries were crispy and the kimchee toppings were good (they had enough for your taste buds to absorb the flavor)..i've tried kimchee fries before at another restaurant and gotta say the kimchee fries here did taste better....the portion was enough to share amongst 4 girls since the burger was soo filling... sizes/portions: 1 burger per person will make your stomach feeling content or full... kimchee fries (maybe share 2 orders per 4 ppl OR.. 1 order per 4 ppl...) eggrolls: too bad they were sold out... i couldn't try them..!! :( ...maybe next time.. customer service: the people here were friendly.. no major complaints..wish the tables were cleaner tho.. i ended up wiping it down prior to sitting down.. costs: ~$9 for a burger (to be exact..my bibim burger was $8.80 which includes tax)... expect to pay up to $20 for burger, drink & fries.. atmosphere: good place to come with friends... indoor and outdoor seating.... parking: street parking is available... or if you take the train. .the CTA is close by.. I would definitely come here again to try the other burgers... and hopefully one day I can try the eggrolls....:) read more

We get it... You were featured on Diners n Drive Ins n Dives. No need to over advertise this, let the food speak for itself. Overall it's good, but just too greasy for me though to really be a fan of this place. Umami burger ~ truffled mushroom duxelle, sun dried tomato confit, togasashi mayo, bacon and smoked gouda cheese. First initial bites... WOW! Truffle roundhouse kick in the mouth. Really good, but as I continued to eat it felt like it was getting greasier and greasier the more I bit into it. Also, the burger was a bit too undercooked in the center for me. Kimchi fries ~ fries with kimchi, cheese, bacon, scallions, & sesame. Initially good, they failed to mention fries are cooked in truffle oil but once you get toward the bottom really unappetizing to eat. Way too greasy and soggy. My guess is from the bacon and the kimchi rendered in bacon fat. Bulgogi Bop Plate ~ bulgogi (Korean marinaded beef) served with rice, salad, and kimchi. Probably the healthiest of everything we ordered, but just okay. Nothing really to rave about. 'Til next time, cheers! read more

Bop N Grill - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This place has some interesting food options. The concept for their food is stylistically American fast food, but there is a strong Korean emphasis on the making of their dishes. We ordered the umami burger ($9) and bibimbap ($8). Hubby had a slightly difficult time locating items that were vegetarian-friendly. After all, he couldn't just order a burger like I did. The truth is that they don't offer the veggie burger option. If you've had the Korean bibimbap from a Korean restaurant, you could probably tell that the bibimbap here was modified to cater the American audience. The dipping sauce they used was similar to the sweet-sour sauce for egg rolls at an Americanized Chinese restaurant. It was nothing wrong to make such change; I just found it a bit odd. On the other hand, my umami burger was quite tasty. The truffle oil elevated the entire burger to another level and gave it a "sophisticated" taste. I know most citizens in this country are carnivores, yet there are a few exceptions like my husband who is a vegetarian. It would be nice and thoughtful if there are some vegetarian options for people like him. The primary reason why I render three (3) stars is the price point; I felt it's quite expensive for an independent fast-food joint. I forwent the combo option and just got the burger. Otherwise, we would be spending more than $20 for just two (2) entrees. The city of Chicago is a very competitive market for small businesses. If there were a middle eastern falafel place nearby, I would have gone there instead of coming here for dinner. Since the majority of population here is college students, they should be way more sensitive in searching for lower price point on food in the neighborhood. read more

There's no point in going anywhere else in the city for your kimchi fries fix. The fries are super crispy and addicting. I have been spoiled by this place and expect my fries like that all the time now. The gooey cheese and the sautéed kimchi on top is a game changer. The acidity from the mildly spicy kimchi goes so well with the crunch of fries and cheese mixed all in there. Lot of love went into this item. When available, you MUST try their Philly cheese steak egg rolls. I've only been able to try it once twice due to the fact that's it's always sold out each time they have it available again. Almost makes me wanna place an order on hold just for myself. The establishment has always been clean and the variety of menu items is great. It caters to a variety of different diets out there. None of the menu items lack flavor. read more

I love bop and grill, I always get their BNG burger with fries and they never get the order wrong.

Good burgers and the Bulgogi bowl is off the hook. quickly served fresh and hot. Staff is efficient and high energy...great stuff as far as fast food is concerned! read more

I'm really glad that this placed opened up. I myself love Korean food and restaurants (bbq and homestyle) but find it hard to find good service with said restaurants. Now, BNG isn't a traditional Korean place - it's more of Asian Fusion run by a younger guy. Perfect concept and spot, especially being across from Loyola. I've been here a few times over the last few months, and my favorite dishes are: +++ Korean BBQ ribs: tender and marinated so deliciously. Comes with a small side of kimchi and a bed of salad with thousand island-y sauce. +++ kimchi fries: I don't know what it is - something as simple as fries, kimchi, cheese, bacon and chives... HEAVEN. ++ Umami burger: there is something about the combination of the mayo, sun dried tomato, gouda, etc. that made me feel like I wasn't even eating a burger... it was an amazing party in my mouth. Must try! + BBQ Chicken : ordered when they were out of the BBQ ribs. I'm not a big fan of chicken too much, but this was a generous portion of chicken as well as tasty (not too dry). Same sides as ribs. + Chicken Katsu bi bim bop: I don't typically order bibimbop but I had a few bites of this and can say that it was pleasing as well. The service I've had here has always been pleasant which makes BNG awesome-r! read more

Let's see... Drove from Schererville, IN specifically to eat at this particular joint. Definitely wasn't disappointed. Would I make the drive again? Probably not. But would totally have a bite if I happen to already be in the area. I inhaled the Bibimbop with Bulgogi... very good. My Donald had the Kimchee Burger... also good but I believe we could do better at home. Lucas had the Unami Burger... delicious. We also tried the Philly Bulgogi Egg Rolls and the Kimchee Fries... they were a smidge better than okay. My husband definitely enjoyed these more than I did. Then we ordered two small drinks. Our bill was a whopping 52 something! So... the food was tasty for sure but a bit pricey for what is offered. However, I'm not sure I could find anywhere else that can serve up dishes quite like this place. read more

Okay here's the rub, this is one of those all time awesome college town gems. I had the umami burger and it was a treasure trove of terrific-ness! Now the food delivery time from order to pick up was a tad long that just means it's cooked fresh from the ground up! Kimchee fries are the bomb! The counter girl was sweet and very helpful the kitchen staff are also super cool returning smiles and thumbs up when I saluted them as a left. I had to for only one triple D treat this trip and I'm so glad I chose BopNGrill! Go get you some deliciousness. FoodDude! read more

BopNGrill @ 6604 N Sheridan delicious heart stopping food. 5 Stars - The Umami Burger w/truffled mushroom dexelle, sun dried tomato confit, togarashi mayo., bacon, & smoked Gouda no wonder Guy Fieri was drooling on himself and rated this in of the best 5 burgers. The kimchi fries are delicious, w/caramelized kimchi, cheese sauce, bacon, scallions & sesame seeds (yummy) My wife got the tofu & kimchi plate - Krispy tofu, caramelized kimchi & nori slivers. It was ok. She liked it, but I came here for a burger. Definitely worth checking out read more

I looooove coming here. I love when my burgers have an egg in it especially. Lol. They have little computers you can order on to avoid the long line. They are usually so busy whenever I come so the wait can be a little but it is definitely worth it. The burgers are just so incredibly juicy and tasty. I am never disappointed when coming here. It's also easy to find free parking around here and just walk on over. read more

This is my second time here and I can say that it will in no way be my last! Tried the Philly cheesesteak eggrolls filled with bulgogi beef for the first time and they did not disappoint. One order of two eggrolls that were split in half and drizzled with cheese sauce (like the kind they put on nachos at the stadium I think) was enough for the six of us as they were very rich and packed with flavor. An order of chicken katsu could've easily served two people with an enormous blanket of crunchy fried chicken breast draped over white rice and the standard sides of kimchi and thousand Island dressed shredded cabbage. It was served with a teriyaki sauce in a small lidded container. Forgetting the perfect mixed plate order I had the last time I was here this time I again looked to have the spicy option and ordered the bul dak plate with spicy stir fry chicken. What I forgot was that it is resting on two scoops of white rice with the standard sides of kimchi, small side salad thousand Island dressing. It's just not enough lettuce and too much rice for me. Should have gotten the same combination as before - with the bul dak chicken on top of the bibimbap plate. It's a much healthier and interesting dish because it has no rice, has a lot of mixed greens and the addition of a fried egg on top of the meat with stir fried (or were they marinated?) carrots and jalapenos on the side. The Bavarian burger on the pretzel roll was tasty but for me lacked spice. Kimchi french fries were quite the bomb. It is a bit of overkill in the calorie department so don't order it if you are really watching your weight or if you are only one or two people and don't want to get grossed out if you finish it. All in all this is a great place just look at the menu and make sure you ask for substitutions if you don't want something specific on your dish. It might cost you a dollar to make the switch but it's well worth it. read more

The patty was delicious, same as the bun. Loved the hamburger. I took a chance with the kimchi fri s and I was surprised how good they were (and I'm not a kimchi fan).

Like this place portions and food are good. However recently, I asked for a well done burger. They gave me a pretty much raw. It was bright pink on the inside like only the literal outside of the burger was cooked. If it was slightly maybe medium I would understand but this was an intentional "I don't care" what the customer wants. Fries were good. read more

Get the Kimchi Burger. It is so yummy and has egg on it. Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum

I have seen bopNGrill featured on "Chicago's Best" and "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" and expected it to be dynamite. It was fine. Not great. Ordered the BBQ Chicken plate with kimchi. Nothing "BBQ" about it. Tasted like grilled, teriyaki chicken that I could have gotten at Panda Express. Nice, crisp, kimchi, and the little side salad with Thousand Island was oddly refreshing. Wouldn't go out of my way to try it again My friend got bulgogi, it was a bit better. read more

We had the ribeye rice plate it was good. Their flavors were fresh and delicious nice touch to add the side of pure sesame seed oil to pour all over the meat and rice. I love their kimchee fries addicting and crispy lather in beautiful melted cheese, kimchee, bacon and some truffle oil! This is the type of food that makes your soul sing happy tunes! We came in there hungry and walked very satisfied. The first time we had Bop N' Grill it was closer to Wrigleyville area and it was in their smaller location. We had their amazing burgers and fries we loved it. Now we're back at their location in Roger's park by Loyola and it was good. read more

I'm a total sucker for korean food or any food that have korean stuff infuse! And I came here with my mom and kids because we saw Triple D. Thank you Guy Fiery! Went here to try their burgers (AT FIRST!), but then decided to go to try their bulgogi and bibimbop (sorry for the misspell). The taste is okay. Not going to complain. I also bought their loco moco and umami burgers for my husband. I did try the umami. For me, the patty itself is a bit overcooked. My husband said the loco moco is just okay. Tasted like regular burger. The staff at the the cashier is nice. She made sure I got the food, because I didn't stay by the cashier when they called my number. I was busy with my three kids outside at the patio. Overall, its a good solid joint. read more

My go-to spot for bibimbop. Sometimes I crave a spicy fire Tofu Bowl with some kimchi and bopNGrill is the place to go. The salad has a sweet poppyseed dressing which balances the heat really nicely for me. I often get lunch delivery from here because it comes really fast and travels well. The fries are amazing but I don't get the fries when I get delivery because fries never travel well. The interior is fun and casual. The service is great. read more

My good buddy lives in the neighborhood and wanted to take me to his favorite restaurant in the area, he talked up the place so much, we were so excited to have diner! He recommended the burgers and explained that they could replace the beef with tofu, they had done this for him many times, he is a repeat customer. The girl at the front desk gave him a terrible attitude when he asked about the substitution, not in a nice way that a regular person could accept, I mean, yes, menus change, menu items are removed, but this girl was sour! Eek! We decided to leave without ordering, so disappointed!!! This was Tuesday, October 24, around 8:30pm. read more

We went inside to check out menu and decided to stay and eat. We both grab burgers that looked better than they tasted. My mistake was getting an egg on mine. Free refills of course was fantastic. Mostly College student vibe ,plus all walks of life started to come in. It was just ok for a quick bite to eat. When we finished eating no one talked about returning, so maybe this was the first and last visit. Although we are interested in other items on the menu, so who knows.... I say check this place out if you are curious. read more

BopNGrill kept us alive during the pandemic and we still order from them. One of the best burgers in town!

Take the hype with a grain of salt: I don't think I'll be returning. Paid a visit here twice and wasn't wowed by the taste or the price. Granted you get quite a bit of food, but there is a taste that I can't get behind. The first time I got the fire chicken and the second the bibimbop with chicken katsu and both times I couldn't believe the price and my egg was way undercooked. The best part of my food was the fries - ah ma zing. Maybe I'm just a Dak loyalist... read more

Man... I've had this place bookmarked for years. I try to avoid anything east of Western, as I'm a snob when it comes to traffic and congestion. But since I was visiting a friend in Rogers Park, I wanted to try this, so we Grubhubbed this place. I was so excited!! This place was visited by the annoying platinum-haired dude from Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, so it has to be legit. I ended up ordering the BnG burger, which was phenomenal! It had bacon, lettuce, tomato, onions, cheese, and of course, beef patties. The beef was cooked to a perfect "medium" and my gawd, one of the best burgers I've had (yeah, I'm looking at you Au Cheval). Other peeps ordered the Kimchi fries, which I'm not a fan of kimchi at all, and this was no exception. But the fries also was drenched with cheese, and my healthy butt said to heck with it, and I scrapped-off the kimchi and went HAM. I tried also the chicken tatsu, which was fried chicken tenderloins, with rice and some katsu sauce. It was OK. Then finally, I also tried the bbq chicken rice plate, which I liked better than the chicken katsu rice plate. But yeah, overall, awesome food! I'm excited to try the other items on the menu, like philly bulkgogi eggroll, but it was only available on Fri-Sun, and we had this on a Thursday. Sad face. I'm always a fan of how people can be so creative with fusion food, and this place is definitely no exception. Definitely try this place if you're in the area! read more
