Bulgogi
Tina T.

I think the name Iron Age is an interesting choice for this AYCE BBQ. It was chosen because of the similarity when people would cook over open fires similar to the Korean BBQ experience cooking on a built in grill at the table. However, very much anachronistic in every other way : loud music, KPOP videos on entire walls/screens covering the entire restaurant, blue lighting, and modern light fixtures. The atmosphere is Electric! The menu appeared to have a wide selection of meats, however, it all felt like it was the same. The bulgogi and Hawaiian Bulgogi was the difference of literally 3 pineapple chunks. The steak and seasoned steak was the difference of the Montreal Steak Seasoning. Regardless, it still satiated the Korean BBQ cravings. The server was friendly and attentive. I was happy that He came to change the grill top several times and fill water/drink orders frequently. I would definitely come back!

Pork belly

I've been here several times and have noticed that the amount of meat they give you varies, for example, the pork. It gets busy here and there is a long wait.

Hey fellow Yelpers! This was my first time going to Iron Age location in Glenview, IL. I went with my boyfriend, my parents, my uncle, & my aunt. We went around 11:30 am - 12 pm and it wasn't busy which was awesome. We were waiting for my parents to come, but the waiter seated us. Customer Service: The staff were friendly. We were seated right away. The waiters were awesome about giving us our food and switching out the grill plate when it needed to be switched out. Food/Drinks: The food was really good! I only had Korean BBQ one other time in my life and I thought it was good, but I think Iron Age may be my go-to Korean BBQ spot. Bathroom: The bathrooms are located towards the back of the restaurant. They were very clean. In the ladies room, there are only 3 stalls. Overall Experience: Overall, I had a great experience at Iron Age at the Glenview, IL location. The staff were friendly, it was clean, & delicious food. I hope this review helps Iron Age in the Glenview location, Iron Age in general, & its current and future customers. Have an amazing day!

Brisket

I've always wanted to go to the OG spot. I've been to the Wicker Park location before and it was good. My experience here was delicious too! This location is pretty big but they can get really busy. No reservations are taken so you may have to wait. Service was quick and efficient! We started with 4 proteins - spicy squid, iron age steak, Hawaiian bulgogi, and porkchop. Followed by the porkbelly and brisket. Every meat was soo good and flavorful! The porkbelly was the crowd favorite. I could've ate like 20 of the rice cakes. I'm also in love with the iron age salad which I got for myself to eat with the meats instead of rice.

Salads and sides!

Greetings! One component of my Yelp quest is to highlight for you the best of the best, my personal favorite stops in the Northwest Suburbs. Enter the best of the best: Iron Age Glenview. One visit to Iron Age Glenview and you will instantly note that this place hits like no other. It's a cavernous space with an eclectic mix of club-like lighting, a huge spread of tables with built-in grills, and videos splashed on the walls featuring endless K-pop and music. The menu is simple: A wealth of all-you-can eat choices with several perfectly paired sides. For sides my faves are the Spicy Rice Cake and salad. For the meats: Spicy Pork bulgogi, Spicy Pork Steak, and the Beef Brisket. To wash it all down, how about $3/$4 drafts...for me a 20 ounce Heineken...just adds to the joy. As if this isn't enough, Iron Age sets patrons with four spectacular sauces that seal the deal for what is always a GREAT meal each and every time. Service is friendly and attentive...I appreciate their effort. There is a delicate balance between all-you-can-eat offerings and meal pacing. I have enjoyed Iron Age several times and each time I have come away not only satisfied, but grateful that I can eat such a wide variety of quality food at a set menu price. To me, a meal at Iron Age is the deal of the century...and I believe you are getting top quality food at a price that favors the customer's interests. Washrooms are clean and the overall tone of the facility comes across as well run. Iron Age Glenview is a winner, and it is my personal favorite for a sit down meal in the Northwest suburbs. I hope you find that the flavors bring you back again and again. Until next time...tk

Normally when we go get Korean food, we don't do KBBQ. We get the restaurant to cook our food lol. In this case, we were visiting from out of town and my cousin recommended we visit this place and we had the best meal ever. The food was fresh and sooooo flavorful. Their speciality Iron Age steak was so tender. The sauces were delish- love that there was a variety. Also, the sides were amazing- gotta get the tteokbokki! Service was great- they were very attentive to the grill fire and changed out the rack when needed. Ambiance was nice- a little dim with Korean drama playing on the large screen. This was a lunch visit. My cousin said he's done at dinner time and they played a little more lively music.

Japchae

Korean BBQ is always fun and Iron Age Glenview delivers an experience that does it justice for $30 a person, all-you-can style. What I love - the brisket - the bulgogi - the kimchi - the japchae - the sauces What to know - no reservations - wait list through host on-site or even Yelp (I believe) -quick, attentive service -fun k-pop playing on a big screen in the front of the restaurant - cook yourself meals - lively lounge-like atmosphere - I prefer the Glenview location over the Chicago location My husband and I have been to Iron Age Glenview twice and we love having dinner here!

Well, we finally made it into this place and it lived up to the hype. We really enjoyed our weekday AYCE Korean BBQ lunch for $22 per person. They have a huge space and it wasn't very crowded and we much prefer that situation over waiting up to 3 hours (I was told) on a weekend night. I can see why they have high ratings - the place is spacious, clean, and comfortable, and they have great attentive service, great variety of quality meat and veggie offerings, quite good value, a chill vibe, lively k-pop music, and to boot not much Korean BBQ smell on our clothes after the meal! Turbo was our friendly and attentive young receptionist and server. Wife and I had a variety of their offerings - pork belly, beef bulgogi, spicy pork bulgogi, Hawaiian bulgogi, beef brisket, steamed eggs, japchae, veggies, and white rice. It was all delicious though we did prefer the beef over the pork meats but they were all nice to try. For what we got, the value here was very good. I know we are Johnny-come-latelies, but this is now our favorite Korean BBQ place and I am sure we are joining many others in saying that lol.

Shrimp and veggies

Food is amazing for AYCE. The wait is usually 30-60 mins and we have not found a good way to make reservations. The restaurant blasts K-Pop, and has a low lit vibe. It's dark and loud. I enjoy it, others may not. Every time we've gone we've always had fun. Pro tip they have a vegetarian option you can order. Make wife is vegan and this is a nice option for her. I always go with the meat and have never been disappointed.

Christian T.

First things first, nice building, friendly staff and affordable price. What can I say for being about 29$ a person you can't beat that. I'm visiting in town from CA and was on the hunt for KBBQ. This is the only one thats AYCE in the area that's close. Upon arrival we are greeting by the hostess that said it would take 10-15 mins (we had a party of 4) pretty soon we had been seated down. The seats are lowkey hard and not comfortable and me being on the taller end, had a hard time getting into the booth and having leg room. So we ordered our food and it got there pretty quickly! I wish there was a bit more side options on the menu and some more marinated meat options. Was hoping forward to some intestines. Sadly it was not on there. Our server "REN" was so nice and handsome hahah. Great customer service and super friendly Too! He was so busy I literally felt so bad but he was so attentive. Thank you !!! Overall if I'm ever in the area again, I would prob go back here but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. I do wish it was comparable to the Korean BBQs at home but what can I say this is better than nothing and I'm grateful. If you're looking for a AYCE option that's affordable pull up, but don't expect anything crazy.

Meh, it's better than the city location

I believe all the options are available. Nothing was limited when I went for lunch.

The place has options of seating - inside and outside, ranging from metal chairs to comfortable upholstered benches. We got the tom kha to begin with, which my husband, who's not vegetarian, devoured. It was truly delicious! We then got the Kung Pao with mushrooms and it was incredible - the flavors, the choice of vegetables, the sauce - all of it! We also got a chow mein but with rice noodles - this was the one dish that could take some improvement. Granted, the original recipe calls for wheat noodles, and that might be really good, though our rice noodles version of it was came out soggy. Our server had clearly had a long day - she was tired and forgetful (didn't bring us rice and we had a hard time flagging her down to request it). She also just brought us the check after dinner, without asking if we wanted any dessert. All in all, highly recommend this place for delicious plant-based food.

However, the price was a bit much for this I'd say. Beef tartar: 3 of 5 As there was nothing to special to it. Wouldn't get it a second time. I'd say the trip was disappointing for our party of 5 and what we got didn't match the quality of other gopchang restaurants in LA. For me who did not eat intestines I'd say it's a 3 of 5 place, but I'd say the value for the intestines based on what my party ate was more of a 2 of 5 as it was mostly grease that overwhelmed everything with no meaningful way to reduce it. Service was a good 4 of 5, but not as attentive at times.

For the 5 of us, we ordered the double portion of large intestines, beef tartar, and the bulgogi hotpot. The presentation of food initially was great. I've been to gopchang restaurants in Koreatown in Los Angeles and in Korea. I have not been to one that cooks gopchang in a grill with no outlet for oil drainage. For something greatly oily, it felt uncomfortable seeing it cook in an abundance of its own oil. The restaurant's lackluster solution to all of this oil was to dunk in large pieces of bread to soak it up. This not only looked very unappetizing but was not a successful solution. Additionally, letting the gopchang cook in its own oil, left the gopchang to be "fried" crisp and hard. The bulgogi hotpot had a good amount of meat and vegetables, but was way too sweet. They gave a small bowl of chive salad to a group of 5 of us to share, which we were each able to get very small portions of. They charge extra if you want more chive salad. Overall, a very disappointing experience, could not recommend.

However, to my delight when I arrived at 1:40 I was immediately welcomed by a very nice guy at the counter named Rafael. He was able to answer all my questions about the items on the menu as well as a number of microbrews that were available. I had a $23+ reward from the InKind app that would expire by Jan 31st, so I decided to go with a couple of entrees: shrimp & grits and the brisket platter with mac & cheese, collard greens, cornbread muffin, red beans and rice gumbo, apple coleslaw, plus an excellent microbrew - real authentic southern home cookin'! The portions were abundant, so much so that I took about half the food home. I enjoyed my meal with a delicious microbrew with mandarin peel + coriander. The basic cost of my meal minus the discount from my InKind reward brought the price down to around $43, plus tip - what a deal! The restaurant was very clean with sunlight streaming through the windows (it was 11 degrees outside), light jazz playing in the background (not loud), and a clean comfortable washroom. I found free street parking a block away. When I arrived a gentleman was leaving. He raved about the delicious food - he and his wife love this place. I recommended the InKind app. They're also having a raffle for a top-of-the-line smoker with all the bells and whistles that someone would love to win.

I checked Yelp and ordered from Hofherr Meat based on the stellar reviews. I often peek into Hofherr Meat when walking into Shred415 so was excited to finally try it! About 2 days before I was telling a friend where i got my turkey and she asked me how i plan to cook it. Cook it?? It literally had not occurred to me that my turkey would be raw. If it's not obvious from this review and ALL my restaurant reviews the kitchen is not where I shine. I called Hofherr to ask if they could cook my turkey and while apparently they do that it was too late to put in the request. Good to know for next time. Wednesday morning I joined the rest of the North Shore to pick up my raw turkey. I ran into a friend while waiting for it who is more of an expert when it comes to making turkeys and she asked them to give me gravy, a turkey bag (apparently easier and lessy messy to cook in a bag) and some directions. The next day I followed their directions along with some help from my bestie chatgpt. I stuck it in the oven and crossed my fingers we wouldn't be going without a turkey this thanksgsiving. We had a little mishap when the thermometer melted into the turkey (oops), but besides that it really wasn't too difficult of a process. And while I had trouble eating a turkey after seeing it raw my family was thrilled that it was perfectly moist and praised my turkey making skills. I did have a few bites and did think it was pretty good- and i dont even like turkey. I would definitely get my turkey from here again, although next time i'll be ordering a cooked turkey out of convenience. But for those of you who like to cook a turkey I recommend them!
