    Side dishes

    Food was good but not enough for me to ever go back and receive poor service. Actually, little to no service and to feel like an inconvenience when there were no customers in there. Upon walking in, no host, a lady with a mask came up and asked if we were dining in.... Pointed to a table, no other words. Brought us menus, again, she says nothing to us. Server seemed like she did not want to talk said the bare minimum to get our order, serve our food, and give us our bill. I'm shocked that other reviews say friendly service. Not one person in that place smiled. Marinated short ribs - amazing Bulgogi pork - ok All banchan dishes were very good, flavorful and you get a good variety. The only one I didn't care for was pickled radish cause it tasted old and overdue. Spicy cucumbers and Kimchi were so tasty. Korean buckwheat noodle in spicy sauce- usually when I get this at other restaurants, it does not have this much liquid. Noodles were a little undercooked and chewy. Spicy sauce was flavorful. Japchae - very flavorful, little on salty side but still good Overall clean restaurant. Cute decor but also weird paper signs taped on the walls. Nice set up. Nice concept. Good variety of food for menu.

    Finally had the time to stop by again! I've been craving it all month and as always, they did not disappoint! I thought it was quite nice that they started taking reservations. It made things a lot easier and there was no lines or waiting. We got the large and small intestines, thin premium orginal pork belly, seafood pancake, and the cold noodles. Our waitress cooked our pork belly on one grill and the intestines on another. While cooking she would let us know how much longer each of the meat would take to cook or if it was ready to eat. All of it was cooked amazingly and she was very tentative with replenishing our side dishes and water when it got low. The seafood pancake was SOOO fluffy and genuinely one of the best seafood pancake I ever had. It was packed with seafood. Each bit had something different. The cold noodles was a nice cleanse from the grease from the meats. It was refreshing! Noodles weren't soggy and broth was simple and clean. Always an amazing time whenever I stop by, can't wait for my next visit!

    The best Korean bbq place in Illinois!!!! I love the food and the quality of the service is the best!!!!

    Best 곱창 & 대창! Kbbq and best intestines!!! Fun spot. Always a yes! Nothing like kbbq and some soju/맥주!

    Delicious food and great service! We had the japchae, kalbi tang (so delicious our toddler had three bowls!), marinated ribs and wagyu brisket and the steamed egg... all delicious and the meat was marinated well. The japchae was so flavorful and the best I've had in Chicago. The service was excellent, they were prompt, they were nice to our toddler and understanding of her being a little antsy... and the grilled the meat for us!! Highly recommend

    Hwang Soh was a surprisingly delicious kbbq find! A traditional place, the cooking of the meat is handled by the employees. One thing I found particularly interesting at Hwang Soh was that the meat was seasoned (with black pepper, for example) by the employee at the time of grilling. I don't think I've seen a kbbq place do that before! It's totally optional, but I trusted the employee to do their thing. The meat was indeed really delicious. Between 3 people, we ordered 3 different meats and that was totally sufficient for us. Excellent and delicious kbbq place, no real complaints here.

    Marinated Beef Short Ribs and Berkshire Pork Jowl

    Best Korean BBQ in chicagoland. Must finish off with the kimichi fried rice. There is also free parking.

    truly authentic Korean bbq! They take care of grilling the meats and the must-have fried rice at the end was immaculate

    Some steak, tofu seafood soup, squid bibimbap, Pork Kimchi Gee Gae Soup

    Been coming here for awhile, and it doesn't disappoint. Quality of the food is great, the steak and intestines are ver good. A lot of locals coming in with some a small mix of a crowd. They have Korean music videos playing up high, but the main focus is the food. Taste of quality and like coming here. It's a small space, so plan ahead. Hours are tight too, but worth it.

    Please bring back the 양념 양파 when ordering the 차돌백이. The plain lettuce wraps are not the same?

    More people asked us for the lettuce wrap than green onions. Due to the size of our facility, we could not do both. If More people ask for shredded green onion, we might change to green onion in future. Thanks for the understanding.

    Hi. I'm wondering if you can order a mix of daechang and gopchang, or does it have to be 2 orders for each?

    You could mix, no problm..

    Hello, I was wondering can gopchang and daechang be ordered for take out? Thank you

    Yes, many people order as takeout.

Une Annee is one of the reasons to go to this pretty boring looking suburb. Hit up the bar for some cold ones plus on site made food. The prices aren't bad for craft beers and kitchens. A pretty impressive looking building. It's big and can fit hundreds. This is like a massive garage with a bar and a kitchen. First though it's a brewery. It's about $6 a pint. The one I liked the most was the Twist Of Wit. It's a wheat beer with Cara Cara oranges, coriander, and Meyer lemon. Tasted fruity but not too much. Also we got some food, which was actually good for a brewery. Vegan options are limited but there's a few. It's $6 for the Veggie Chili. This is vegan without the sour cream sauce. Also there's barbecue. There's pork belly and that kind of stuff. Beers are the best things to get here. It also has food from an on site kitchen. There's meaty options like pork and there's chili for vegetarians.

The wait staff has always been friendly and the kitchen staff really churns out consistently delicious options. Food You can never go wrong with the brisket and all of their sandwiches we've tried have a great smoky flavor. The pizzas are the kind you want while drinking a beer and watching a game; light, but great toppings options, including various bbq if you want something a bit more substantial. The topped mac & cheese is great too, and my partner & I both love the chili. Drinks Murder Hornet is the kind of summer beer you want on a hot day. Their rotation of flavors, such as blackberry, passion fruit, mango, etc, are a lovely, crisp option when you're looking for a lighter beer. Their stouts do not disappoint either, with flavors ranging from vanilla to hot pepper, each one provides a unique twist to my favorite style of beer. And they have most of their beers in to go packs and available in flights, making it very convenient to try all the styles. The Staff I can't speak highly enough about my experience with both the wait and kitchen staff. You do all of your ordering through QR codes on the table, but that doesn't stop the folks serving you food and drink from being extremely friendly and welcoming. They are all very down to earth and quick to help if you need anything. The kitchen staff are truly the magicians. The food is always so consistent and I honeslty don't know how they put together some of these meals so quickly, but keep them looking so presentable. The Bad Tonight was the first time I was truly disappointed in Une Année as a business. During dinner right after the soccer match finished, a member of the staff (or maybe an owner?) came in yelling at the kitchen staff, and I mean screaming, in front of all the indoor customers. Although we were unsure what he was saying, the contents of his tantrum were not important. It is NEVER acceptable to treat any staff member that way, in front of customers or not, and multiple times throughout the night. The kitchen staff did not raise their voice, except one time to ask this man to stop yelling at them. Several of the kitchen staff seemed to have walked out from the abuse by the time we paid up and left, and rightly so. Even as they were leaving, he was still taking jabs at them. I'm extremely bummed that I will likely not be returning after years of patronage as I feel gross supporting a business that is willing to be so disrespectful towards their staff.

We've always enjoyed the tip-top delicious chicken, pork, and duck products from here.  Mrs. Tam is the youngish lady owner here, and don't fret, her English is quite good too!  They make their products right downstairs in the basement, and you might see a fresh batch of whatever being brought up.   Their prices naturally won't be quite as cheap as in a Chinatown, but the difference is very reasonable and you can consider it a convenience charge for not having to commute into the city.  Thumbs up and that thumb has been up going on 12 years+ now!

Flame On Peri Peri is a singular restaurant serving hot ass food. Kind of seems like it mixes American fast food with Mediterranean options such as chicken and falafel among protein options. This type of cuisine typically uses meat but there's a falafel option for those getting the meaty stuff. After hearing about it one time, I came here. It's located in a nice strip mall building, modern looking. This is an order at the counter type of restaurant. Has some spicy ass food. There's a sort of Mediterranean fast food kind of feel too. It's about $10 for one of the Rice Bowls. The vegan option for protein is the falafel. These were plentiful, a good value. Also you get a choice of sauce, and I got the creamy hummus. This also came with hot and white garlic sauce. It was fucking ass hot. This had serious hot peppers in there. For sure I would go here again. It's expensive so not all the time of course.
