Knew this wouldn't taste as good since it was delivery but it was great. The KFC was a tad soggy but still had a good crunch from the breading and was juicy. The spicy sauce with it wasn't spicy but was flavorful. The banchan was fine, really only liked the bean sprouts and cucumbers. The chicken galbi lowkey had some heat but was juicy just like the wings. Veggies with it were solid too and plenty of liquid to soak up the massive amount of rice. The pork wasn't as spicy as the chicken but was tender and flavorful. Ordered again the following week but got the beef bulgogi and tteok bok ki. Beef was sweet but not my favorite bulgogi. Tteok bok ki is a favorite of mine but I prefer a more simpler version of just sauce and rice cakes. read more

This appears to be a small, family-owned Korean restaurant with a casual and welcoming atmosphere. Keep in mind that it is not a Korean barbecue restaurant, so there are no grills built into the tables. The service was friendly, although nothing particularly stood out, and I found the food to be average overall. If you're already in the area and looking for a casual Korean meal, it may be worth stopping by, but I personally wouldn't make a special trip. read more

The pros: 1) chicken wings! 2) large portions for the price 3) fast service and food is ready FAST Not the BEST or tastiest Korean dishes in town, but if you're on a budget and need good nutritent dense meals, this is the spot for you! I knew I had a rough week at work coming up and fightinga bad cold at the same time, so I ordered 4 entrees (2 soups, spicy squid and spicy pork) for under $70. The bag of food was massive, large portions, a big box of Bandhan side dishes. This lasted me nearly 10 meals. Without Kim's, not sure how I would've survived the week! read more

Home cooking isn't the restaurant name for no reason! I loved coming here, everything was made fresh and tasted delicious. Recovering from a cold, I ordered the Yuk Gae Jang and I swear it healed me. This is the perfect place for hot soup on cold, rainy days. Cant wait to come back! read more

Wow! Yelp helped me find this place because I was craving some rice cakes. Everything was so delicious!!! It was my first time trying the cold noodles and they were marked wheat free on the menu and this was my favorite thing! Service is very kind and the interior is clean and simple. Bimbap was also so good, we all agreed this was the best japchae we've ever had. Noted I am not Korean, but I've travelled to South Korea before and this food is very authentic. The rice cakes had a more onion forward flavor, but we liked it a lot. Would recommend! read more

If you're looking for a place for home-y, Korean comfort food, Kim's is where it's at. Don't expect any sort of ambiance bc you won't get any. The banchan is good and the kimchi tasted like my mom's. I ordered the dolsot bibimbap which was well portioned and flavorful (gotta love that crispy rice). We also ordered the Kalbi tang and also the Korean popcorn chicken. Can I just say, $9.99 for popcorn chicken is a steal, and that plate alone could have fed three people. My boyfriend took his Kalbi tang leftovers home and said it tasted even better the next day. Even though there was only one person working as a server, the wait time was minimal. This was our first time dining in so I'm not sure how many people are working typically but I did feel bad for the one worker and made sure to tip well. read more

Kim's home cooking is low key the best Korean restaurant in Chicago! The side dishes are all fresh! I will say the spicy vegetable pork dish was as good as it was in Korea! And the spicy chicken wings are amazing here! If you get a chance check Kim's home cooking out! You will not be disappointed! The service is great the staff really help you out with the best options on the menu! The ambiance made me feel like I was in Korea when you are seated in the restaurant! On a side note there is free parking so it makes it even better! read more

The service was very good and the people were so nice! I will say this place does not taste very authentic. It will do though because I've noticed there have been limited Korean options near the city. We ordered the seafood pancake which was not crispy although the flavor was good. The galbitang was alright - felt that there was a lot of seasoning/salt rather than true beef bone soup. I would not recommend the kimbap as I felt that the flavor was not there and the normal vegetables I'm used to were substituted with lettuce. read more

Some of the food is great (the wings), and some of the food is below par (the fried rice). But my biggest complaint is the poor service. The last time I came here, the server took 15 minutes to even come greet us after we sat down. After we ordered, we waited 40 minutes before he came to tell us he lost our orders. Then we waited another 40 minutes before we received our food. He didn't even seem apologetic or serve us banchan (side dishes) to hold us over in the meantime, so we just sat watching every other patron get their food before us. Decided to give the place another chance, but the service was just as bad. People who came in after us got their food faster than us. I noticed the older, korean-speaking patrons would get more attention/faster service, which sucked. I think all customers should get equal treatment despite ethnicity... I won't be coming here again. read more

The bimbimpab stone bowl was good. But be careful, they are sneaky with the pricing. menu price is $15.49, but they don't ask if you want meat, and add an extra $3 for "beef" even tho it was just 2 thin small slices. Seafood pancake is not very crispy, Bulgogi was over-cooked and dry. The Kimbab is good. Also if you have leftovers, they charge $1 for each takeout container. read more

Came here on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy. Not a big restaurant and lots of delivery orders too. Service was a bit slow as a result. We ordered the seafood pancake, seafood kalguksu, grilled mackerel, and 5 pieces of fried chicken. The mackerel was really good - not dry, tender meat, well flavored. Great with rice. The fried chicken was great too. Unfortunately we were quite disappointed with the seafood pancake, which was really mushy and not crispy at all. It had a lot of carrots more than anything else in it. The seafood kalguksu had good noodles and broth but tiny pieces of seafood in it. Likely will not return. Nice that they are located in a plaza with plenty of parking though. read more

I'm always looking for new Korean restaurants to order from. There were good reviews, and prices were reasonable. The portion was good, but unfortunately, the Jap Chae was lacking any flavor, mostly noodles, no meat, and hardly any vegetables- by far the worst I've had. The KFC (sweet garlic and spicy) were good, but the flavors didn't seep into the chicken- only coated on the skin, so the chicken inside was plain. The Kalbi was just okay. Maybe it was an off day, but we were disappointed. read more

Old school Korean restaurant. An older couple runs it and it carries that laid back, super casual feel. If you've got patience, it'll be tested. But at least food comes out timely if the restaurant isn't busy. Flavoring is good. You should enjoy your meal. Keep expectations minimal and you'll be happy. Nowadays one can obtain really good Korean food in many areas of Chicagoland. Topping that, they are operating near to veteran Korean & Korean Chinese restaurants. Still, they're doing their own thing and for that the costs aren't as high as their competitors. read more

Efficient but not necessarily friendly service. I ordered Galbi to-go, and it was pretty good. Not the best I've had but certainly not bad. They also included banchan which was nice but I didn't recognize one of those sides dishes outside of the typical kimchi, cucumbers, and bean sprouts. Price was fair, too. It was rather hot inside. It didn't seem like there was good ventilation or A/C. I might be back in the future. read more

Come here for their chicken wings! My group and I ordered the 20 piece wings, the army stew, and an order of bulgogi kimbop. The wings were juicy and flavorful! We ordered the wings with the teriyaki and spicy sauce. The army stew was spicy and the kimbop tasted even better after I drenched it with the soup. Their wings are a must try here! read more

Kim’s Home Cooking - Tofu soup don't looks like that I'm so disappointed - Korean Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Small place in a strip mall, with some parking available. They do eat-in and take-out, but if you need a takeaway container at the end of your meal, they'll charge you a dollar for it. The teriyaki chicken is fantastic. Veggie kimbap is good. Whatever those marinated cucumbers are called was really good, too. They included a little traditional kimchi with my meal. I don't usually like kimchi, but theirs was all right. read more

"Kim's Home Cooking" is my go-to place found on Uber Eats when I don't have time to put together something on my own during weekday lunches. I used to visit the establishment in person when it was under a different owner. I now live a bit further away yet it is still reliable as one of a few choices on the Uber Eats platform. I like most of their soups: the dumplings with rice cakes, spicy tofu, beef cabbage, and etc. Everything is done in a home-cooking fashion, as the name suggests. The portion is right for the price. The deal gets better when I use the occasional coupon that Uber Eats sends to my email. For other entree options, the bulgogi and bimibop are my partner's go-tos. You can also order extra rice for $2. Some banchans come with the order and they are all delicious. Overall, we are satisfied with everything we have tried so far. I also have the tendency to order extra to fill up our work lunch boxes. I like their glass noodles. I would boil additional veggies, such as broccoli and carrots, I have in the fridge to make it complete. Honestly, there are way too many fast-food types of restaurants circulating on Ubereats and I'm just not attracted to them. I have ordered from "Kim's Home Cooking" a good number of times and this place deserves a recognition. read more

Awesome hole in wall spot! Authentic food. Pancake, KFC, and dolsat bibimbop all on point! Friendly, affordable, fast!!

I found out about this place from friends from church and omggg that popcorn chicken for $10 is an amazing deal!! Don't expect your regular Taiwanese popcorn chicken bc it's not the same. This isn't as peppery or traditionally crispy like Korean fried chicken but it still packs so much flavor. It's maybe 6/10 crispy on the crispiness scale and doused in like this tasty sweet and sour sauce topped with sesame seeds.. yet somehow it just works and is hella delicious. I was excited about galbi tang but it was so so.. the meat isn't that high quality and the soup was pretty bland. Overall I'd come back for some comfort Korean foods if I'm in the area read more
