    First time out to try this Korean Fried Chicken place on Dempster. I came around 1pm, waited til a group of 5 was also ordering take-out. I texted my son Alex, and he wanted their Butter Chicken sandwich with fries. I opted for their Wings Lunch Special. I was asked what kind of sauce I wanted to go with my chicken wings, and I wanted their Honey Soy Sauce. It didn't take long and I was off to have a late lunch with Alex. Much to my chagrin, when I opened my Lunch Special Box, they forgot to give me my Honey Soy Sauce! And I thought I saw a few side items that were supposed to be part of their Lunch Specials, like some pickled veggies and some kimchi? Kinda pissed that I didn't look to inspect my order before I left! Sigh! So I had to whip up some kind of sauce, and I noticed that their chicken was a bit on the oily side. Not like my go-to place when I crave some Korean Fried Chicken is the small place on Golf called "bb.q Chicken". Their chicken is always the same great quality, awesome crunch, never oily, great taste. Every single time I go there. One thing though, K-Coop's interior is a bit more instagrammable than bb.q Chicken. But that's about it. I might try their Chicken Bowls but, my go-to is still "bb.q Chicken" on Golf! "Gamsahadnida!"

    Love the fried chicken here! We got the soy honey and spicy kbbq flavors and enjoyed them. Toddler liked the fried mandu, but we found them pretty plain.

    No cars were in the parking lot when we arrived, which would normally worry us. Plenty of indoor seating is available. As you enter, stop at the counter, and a hostess takes you to a seat. Both boots and regular tables are available. The indoor volume is a moderate level as they have music playing in TV showing pop bands dancing. Once at your table, there are call buttons on each table which you're expected to press when you're ready to order, need a refill, or ready for the check. We tried the bone in wings with the bang bang sauce as well as the lemon pepper and we had no complaints. The sauce located in the photo tasted great. I just can't remember the name. Another person in our party ordered the chicken with onion on top, he was disappointed as he thought the onions would be grilled. Sides are ordered separately and one side order of fries was big enough to feed two people. A kid's menu is available. The napkins, we noticed, are very thin and I believe we used about 100 napkins. Perhaps better quality napkins should be ordered. The waiter was helpful in helping us order as it was our first time there. We tried the pancakes and they two were good.

    First experience with K-Coop. Ordered chicken wings and gizzard for pick-up via UberEats. It was ready within 10 minutes. The chicken wings are satisfactory; however when I bit on one of the gizzards, it tasted gamey. When I looked it was undercooked! That was really gnarly ;(

    Really cool cozy spot with a nice vibe and super friendly staff. Really cool concept. You press the button on your table when you need your server. Makes me feel like I'm in Korea. Everything we had was tasty. The wings were delicious and the bulgogi was great as well. Plenty of parking out front. I wish this place had a bar. I'd be there all the time!

    Lunch special. This boneless chicken is with honey soy sauce.

    Our first time here,we will be back. The boneless chicken was excellent with honey soy sauce. My husband had tenders with honey soy sauce was awesome. There are so many sauces to pick from! Food us fresh tasting and piping hot.

    Do not sleep on this place for delicious chicken! but if you're in the mood for a hamburger, their burger (with their waffle fries) is honestly amazing! I've actually gone there for their burger! highly recommend! the service is good too.. I am a fan of the service buttons at korean restaurants.. wish all restaurants would start using it.

    Had a really good meal for lunch at K Coop. I like the ambiance with K-pop videos and sports on the TVs. I always get scared along the wall with the TVs for some reason. The chicken was cut into good portions so I didn't get sick of eating white meat. They have little buzzers at the table to request service so I thought that was good cause they come right away. Efficient. Parking lot is easy to pull up to. Will definitely go again when I'm up for some KFC.

    Opened while back and finally got to try K-Coop. Went back in July 2024. I started with spring & summer special shandy. Mango and Pineapple shandy were pretty good; it was a bit sweet, but did complement by meal. Service was mediocre; it wasn't busy visiting on a weeknight. Menu was quite overwhelming; there were too many options for an indecisive person like me, but for others who like options, there's a lot to choose from. Here's what I got. sweet onion creamy onion chicken: flavorful soy spicy: color is beautiful but I didn't like the flavor. I wish there was more spiciness or gochujang flavor soy honey gizzard: flavorful; texture and crispiness was good, but there was too much batter Would I go back..? Hmm... I'm not sure.

    Ordered my family dinner which we picked up and ate at home. The flamin hot wings are so good! They are a sweet and spicy dry rub- definitely worth trying. I don't often say this because I absolutely love spicy food but the spicy pro was too much to enjoy. I ended up giving them away because it was too spicy. The other flavors we tried were good. I probably just won't order spicy pro again!

    Love the chicken here. Traditional Korean Q chicken that is twice fried for that ultimate crisp. They have since added Korean tacos with bulgogi in beef and chicken flavors. They also have Korean soups now as well. So so so good. If you like spicy, make sure to order their spicy chicken, it is very hot! In terms of dining area, it's fairly large and open. Tons of seating indoor and an outdoor area to sit and play at. The service is amazing as well...so courteous and nice.

    Came here for an early lunch (11:30ish) on a weekend and KCoop already had several tables seated and eating. I'm not surprised as this place throws down when it comes to fried chicken. This small business is a casual spot that can seat about 40ish people indoors. I also noticed an outdoor patio which I'm sure is utilized during the summer. Service is great for an introvert, it's quick and convenient. Instead of having someone coming and going there is a magic button on each table that lets the staff know when their customers need something. Very smart! My fiance and I tried 5 wings tossed in the spicy rookie sauce and 5 classic wings with Korean bbq and creamy garlic sauces for dipping. The chicken is breaded and cooked perfectly. It was juicy and all the meat easily fell off the bone. As for the sauces I truly only cared for the creamy garlic. My fiance likes the spicy rookie out of the 3. I'll just have to come back to find which one I like best! Going forward I think I'll stick with ordering the classic wings and have the sauces on the side.

What ails me is a hunger for goat stew, so I'm frequently cured. Quite fantastic, loaded with super fresh leaves that cook down into the wok in 10 minutes and if you are in the know, put off the rice until the very end when, if you eat nearly almost all of it, leaving a scrimp of meat and leaf and a few tablespoons of broth, ask for the kimchi rice, which the staff will prepare at your table with the namesake and an egg. You will feel healthy. If goat is not your thing, the seafood pancakes with green onions are a treat, the chap chae is yum-yum time, and the dol sot bib bim bop is a deep satisfier. I love the skinny little pike makerels (Kkong Chi Gui), especially for lunch. The service is excellent though causal, no pressure. It is often busy with every table eating one of the stews. And, if you are lucky, go in the early afternoon, the place is yours with Chilly Willy and Tom And Jerry cartoons. Tops on my list for overall comfort, taste, cozy, causal dining. Banchan a plenty.

Its located near the corner of the street but easily missed. The service was excellent. Greeted upon arrival,waiter gave us the menu. Some of the menu items are unique and I haven't seen in other restaurants before. We started with seafood pancakes my all time favorite korean appetizers. For the entrees we had pork cutlet with gravy and rice, steam chicken gizzards, pork belly nappa cabbage wrap and kimchi fried rice. Every single dish came out quick, hot and fresh. Everything we ordered is very savory and delicous. I would say the best korean food in Chicago. It was my first time eating steam chicken gizzards and oh my oh it was seasoned well;soo delicous and one of a kind. I was a little hesitant when my boyfriend wanted me to tatse it. Best decision ever to go out of my tastings bubble. We came on the weekend,we expected groups of people but it was actually quiet for a bar restaurant.We enjoyed our visit here. The food was too yummy we forgot to take photos untill the end. We will definitely come back next time we are around ;)

What A Dumpling is located in the Super H Mart in the food court so you go to the counter and then find a table. Of course it gets crowded. The food is kind of expensive but you get a lot and it's also fresh. Coming here the first time we had no idea it was actually inside this but we still found it after looking awhile. It's in a location of this popular international grocery store. The food court is pretty close to the entrance so it wasn't that hard to get to. A hard thing was finding a table because it was busy. You order at the counter and then take it to a table. Also the inside of the place smells fishy. That's how all of these are it seems. It's about $17 for the Vegan Dumplings. These are filled with chives, napa cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and zucchini. Get these fried or steamed. There's other options with meats in these. Got to say it was pretty great for being in a food court. It's located in the store in Civic Center Plaza. They're even open for the weekends.
