My husband has gotten bowls from here several times, but I've only ordered from here once. I got the fried dumplings (stuffed with pork and vegetables) and they were really good. If I was on the go, I could see myself just ordering those dumplings. For my main meal, I ordered the KFire Pork Belly Bowl and really liked it. The vegetables they accompanied the meat were so fresh tasting and I thought that the portion size of the bowl was filling enough. The prices for the bowls are a little higher than some of their competitors, but I feel that the quality ingredients and flavor make it worth it. read more

This place is great. I placed a to-go order while stuck in traffic and I actually arrived a bit too early. No problem. They started firing up my to-go order right away (so the food was fresh- who would complain about that?) The owner is an extremely friendly person and went out of his way to double down on the service. Let me taste the mushrooms (which are really good by the way! I recommend them)--offered me a drink while I waited for my food. Above and beyond on the quality of the service. I meant to order the spicy chicken but I got the soy-ginger chicken instead and that was 100% on me for fat-fingering my order. The portion of chicken was more than generous, the food was warm, flavorful. Honestly, when you go to chipotle and you get the little gristle bits of chicken in your mediocre burrito? Yeah, you are full but it wasn't particularly satisfying. For the price of the same chipotle burrito, you will get something that you'll actually enjoy. read more

Stopped around 9pm on Monday to dine in. Long story short, pork belly was overdone by a long shot, charred and very dry. The guy grilling did not pay attention at all. I actually saw that. I've never had pork belly that dry and charred. Yack. Also, my order took like 15 mins to come out (explains why the meat was so dry), while the place was literally empty. Perhaps the wrong fella was grilling my meat. read more

TL;DR Fresh concept, fresh approach to Korean food in Chicago, and fresh food. Everything was hand picked, or crafted, by the owner(s) themselves. Truly a gem to find in the restaurant startup culture. Pick a protein, pick two accompaniments, and place it adjacent to fresh veggies, and perfectly steamed rice. It couldn't be easier. My order Pork Belly, extra protein, cucumbers, and kimchi. read more

KFire Korean BBQ - K-Fire - Korean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Really nice, fresh, casual Korean eats when you got that itch for delicious Korean food. Lot's of options and they all looked flavorful and cooked tenderly. They have an impossible meat option too for vegetarians! The mushroom side is very yummy, I've never gotten that from a Korean place before. I felt it was a little on the pricey side and would've been nice if you got a little bigger portions. But it was a very good filling meal for ~$16 which is more than you can say for most spots in the city. read more

This place is the bomb! My office caters from here regularly and our clients are always satisfied. Highly recommend their catering services. We have tried everything on their menu and it is all . Always fresh and delicious. read more

I'm a huge fan of kalbi so I was excited to try this place. To start, they freshly grill the meat so the kalbi came out fresh and was super flavorful. I chose the seasoned cucumbers and spicy daikon for my two sides and each element was great. Overall I really enjoyed the meal but wish there were some sauce options to tie everything together. Overall, I would recommend this place for some great, quick Korean food. read more

KFire Korean BBQ - Kalbi plate with Seasoned Cucumber and Spicy Daikon* - Korean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Ordered 3 times from Kfire as its close to my place. At any rate, they are pretty solid with their dishes. Kalbi bowl-Delicious King Mushroom bowl-Outta sight Spicy Chicken bowl delish Its a solid consistent place to get food and the sides it comes with are perfect. Oh lets not forget the Boki fries, Kfire rice balls and their dumplings. Yummy Korean food that is conveniently located in Logan Square. Price points are solid as well. No pics- I ate before I took a pic. (my norm sometimes. LOL ) read more

I ordered for delivery from here. I've tasted many Korean take out foods and some of them are pretty disappointing. This one was amazing! The pork belly is so good! The rice balls with the cheesiest cheese in the middle were tasty and the cheesy corn was awesome. I will be making this my go to place. I'm also pretty far from their restaurant and they got the food to me fast and fresh. Yum! Run don't walk to this tasty spot. read more

I wish I lived closer to this place so I could come here every day. The food here is really good and fresh. My favorite dishes are spicy KFire pork belly and KFire spicy chicken. They always make my food right and never mess it up. The workers here are very nice and friendly. I feel so happy every time I come here. read more

Super solid place and great for the price. It's especially great because they're one of the places that are open pretty late and the food comes out pretty quick. I definitely need good quick food because I'm coming here late in the night after my workouts so this place is literally everything I'm looking for when I'm starving. I got the Kfire platter and it's a fantastic value for it's price. Great flavors and the mix of two sides with the onions are delicious. My favorite thing about Korean food is the side dishes so I was pleasantly pleased. The only thing is I wish I had more but for about a $10 bowl you can't beat it. We also had the fried dumplings which were pretty solid dumplings but the best part is that they came out super fresh, hot, and crispy. I definitely enjoyed the texture more than the flavor but they were still 4 out of 5 for me. The place itself was very well lit and super clean. All in all great value, delicious flavors, and quick food. What more could you ask for? read more

First time at KFire and the food was really good. I got the pork belly as the protein, kimchi and marinated mushrooms as the sides. I really like how they grilled the meat as you're ordering so it's hot when you eat. Wait time was short too about 7 mins this has similar vibes to chipotle read more

KFire Korean BBQ - Pork belly with kimchi and mushrooms - Korean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

DELICIOUS, great prices, love their kimchee slaw and marinated mushrooms. I had the K-Fire spicy chicken, which was not too spicy for me (as a medium spice person?). Super friendly staff and biodegradable take out boxes (the bottoms, anyhow-- tops are recyclable!) with an "impossible" option and a mushroom option if you're meat-free (or just love mushrooms?). The honey bokki dessert was a little much for me, but if you really get into the sauce and also probably share it, not a bad final bite. Will definitely be back, must try the bokki "fries!" read more

Only reason it's not 5 stars in my book is cause it's a little pricey Cucumbers and salad is so good Spicy chicken 10/10 read more

Delicious! One of my fav Korean places in the area. Definitely recommend to anyone with a hankering for some Korean fare.

Honestly not bad for making korean bbq into a nicely packed fast food type meal. I got the pork belly with kimchi slaw and salad sides, and everything was very tasty and authentic! It seemed to be owned by a korean couple as well so I really hope this place does well! read more

I've ordered from here twice now and was impressed both times. You can tell that they are really grilling the meat to order, which is incredible rare for a fast casual restaurant. All of the ingredients seem super fresh. The dumplings (fried potstickers) are tasty and very crispy. The bokki fries were different, they have an interesting texture, but are very flavorful as well. For the entrees, I've tried the soy ginger beef (my favorite) which is sliced super thin and has a sweet sauce, the spicy chicken and the soy ginger chicken. All the meats, both times I got food from here, were cooked perfectly; tender as well as caramelized and smoky from the grill. It would also be very easy to find some low calorie and/or vegetarian options here. The marinated mushrooms and cucumbers are really good as well. I think the perfect bite is to get the soy ginger beef and pair it with the green onion salad and marinated mushrooms; the salad has a light, slightly sour vinaigrette, the mushrooms are acidic, and the beef is sweet, so it all just balances perfectly. The place is clean and bright and their packaging is really nice as well. Nothing but great things to say about this cute spot! See you soon KFire! read more

Soooo good! Is it 100% authentic Korean.. no but it was fresh and delicious! I will definitely eat here again

We just had burned beef under the name of Kalbi at a relatively high price (for what we get). There is nothing special here. I don't understand how they got 4.5 stars. read more

We were in the neighborhood for a meeting, and wanted to get something good before heading back north. Man was this a good choice. We got the soy ginger (wife) and spicy chicken (me), both were well flavored and grilled just right. The spicy chicken has good kick, def floating around a 5-6 out of 10 on the casual spice scale. You can step it up to a higher spice level if you're so inclined (I will next time!). It's got solid gochujang flavor, which frames nicely against the side items like the cucumber or daikon, as well as the green onion salad which comes standard. We also got the 1+2 ball and dumplings. The ball was like a Korean-inspired arancini and I loved it. Dumplings were good too. Regret not ordering some of the bokki fries, they sound delicious. Great addition to the Logan area! Wish it was here when I used to hang around the neighborhood on the regular!! read more

Delicious food in a simple environment. The staff is friendly. I recommend eating here.

I have been to Kfire a few times ,but im afraid I wont be back for a while. My two bowls were both served at first cold, I was afraid I was going to get sick after my first bite. After telling the young guy working my meat was cold he said "I don't know what to tell you". I was then helped by the cook who told me "do not worry about it" The cook then heated up the chicken and they gave me back my food 15 minutes later, this time the rice was hard because it had been sitting now for half an hour. I did bite into another piece of chicken and it was still cold. After coming up to the register again with the cold food I was directed by the guy at the register who's name was Jhon not sure if he gave me a fake name to a lady who worked in the back of the house. I did ask for a refund and was given one , but I had to write the review solely because of the costumer service I received from the guy working in front. After I asked for a receipt for my refund I was told by the guy at the register to please leave. I did not raise my voice or give attitude , but I was confused as to why I was asked to leave the establishment. I do believe in bad kitchen days but the service was so bad i'm afraid I won't be back for a while! read more

I've been looking for vegan Korean barbecue for the past 3 years and was SO happy to find out they have vegan kalbi. I took my boyfriend who has never had kbbq before and he said, if this is what Kbbq taste like, I can see why you love it. It was so good and above my expectations of mock meat kbbq. The owner was also very nice! Will be back for more :) read more

Delicious options with allergens clearly marked! Love this spot and recommend for any fast casual lunch or dinner

I. Love. KFire. I have constant cravings for the Impossible Kalbi and can't help but to order it at least once a week. The marinated mushrooms, seasoned cucumbers, and house salad are all divine additions. I usually do delivery, and it always arrives super fast and the box is always filled (no skimping!) The times I've gone in, the crew is really sweet. I'm so happy they are here; please patronize them so I can have Impossible Kalbi FOREVER. read more

$6 for FOUR dumplings??? Not even X-Large dumplings.. regular small dumplings. $1.50 per dumpling? Ridiculous they weren't even tasty . Very dissatisfied and disappointed read more

Super good, super quick, also nice because you can just knock on this little to go window, so more or less contactless. Glad to have them in the neighborhood as an affordable quick lunch option, food was well spiced and those boccie fries are good af. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Delicious food, friendly staff, friendly owner! The food was amazing, and we will definitely be adding this new place to our take out rotation! read more

KFire Korean BBQ - KFIRE Spicy Chicken - Korean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Over priced small plates, great if you're on a diet. Food is just okay. I had the beef bowl, the rice was not sticky rice it was over cooked and mushy (mashed potatoes texture ) the "marinated mushrooms " were bland . I really think they were marinated with water and vinegar. I don't think I'm coming back. read more

Excellent staff, food was great. It's a fantastic way for people who are either familiar with Korean food or curious about Korean food to get a fast, fresh meal. DO NOT miss the Korean fries, made of rice cakes the sauce and the texture is incredible. I hope these guys are around for a long time. read more

I recommend Kfire because its really good. I personally love their Kalbi and The KFIRE salad. The fried dumplings and the rice ball is really good too. I honestly think its one of the best fried rice ball that i've ever tasted. Everyone are so nice and the place it self its so comfy and calm! Its a nice chill place to go eat during the day and night time! Ps. The spicy daikon and kimchi slaw for the side dish is very good too (make sure to get that) LOL read more

If you don't eat meat, you should try the impossible kalbi. The flavor is very similar to if you got ribs. There are so many sides to choose from, but the green onion salad and marinated mushrooms go great with rice. Try the cheesy corn. If you don't eat Korean food often, this may seem like a weird combo, but just try it. read more

I don't get the 5 star love for the place. It's good not great. It is like Chipotle for Korean but chipotle is a 3 star place just like this. read more

The food is great... if you can get it. I have spent over $4,000 on this place ordering via grubhub and doordash. They don't support those any longer. The website says that they deliver, but they just take your money and order but don't even give you a way to give them the address to deliver to. Then when you try to call them, they don't answer the phone... at all. Call and call and get nobody. Voicemail. No response. Email, no response. Money taken nothing delivered. Sounds like theft, plain and simple. read more

So excited to try this new restaurant. We had apps of dumplings, Kfire balls and Bokki fries. Such diverse flavors which were all great. Entree-wise we had pork belly and spicy chicken. Both were delicious with your choice Korean sides. Overall not too spicy but you can definitely crank up the heat with sauces available. There are some secret menu items that you can access by giving them a follow on social media. Fun and delicious experience. read more
