We stopped by on the way to the airport and got the $29 AYCE lunch special, which served as a great post-wedding hangover meal. The meat quality was decent and what you'd expect for the price, but the sides were a bit mid. In hindsight, maybe we should've gone for one of the more premium sets, but we were exhausted and just wanted to eat. Some of my friends decided to keep the celebrations going with more drinking despite our upcoming flights, but I made sure to opt out LOL read more

finally tried mr kimchi ayce! i heard the golf road location is better so came here as opposed to the randhurst location. visited on a monday at 5pm (when they open for dinner) and we (party of 8) were the first ones there. there is an ipad to put your name down. upon being seated, i went straight to the ramen bar which is complimentary with all ayce purchases. i got the neoguri (a classic), but they have shin, jin spicy, buldak spicy, and a few others. everything was super convenient and straightforward to use. you dump the noodles and packets into the bowl and push the 3 button. then you wait about 4 minutes - we set a timer to come back after we sat down. the noodles were perfect. our table just ordered a lot of brisket and corn cheese. they have rice on the table - the first is included and then you can pay $2 for each additional bowl. if you want sesame oil to dip your meat - you have to ask for it. the meats were good - not as fatty as iron age glenview. the japchae, salad, and tteokbokki weren't as good as iron age though. the service was great too. no dessert included in the ayce but they do offer it. overall a good experience and i would go again! it ended up being 38.57 per person with tax/gratuity for the regular ayce. read more

No idea why this place is rated low, but we had a fantastic time. The service was quick for a Friday evening. I liked the authentic feel. We stuck with regular and ordered brisket, bulgogi, and wine pork belly. For the sides: spicy tofu soup, soy bean soup, corn cheese, and KFC. I had the soy bean soup- I thought it was a little salty, but otherwise good! We didn't have to wait long for our orders. read more

Outstanding! So much food and totally delicious. Beck was on his game. You could say he was Beck-tacular!

Mr. Kimchi is one of my favorite spots for AYCE Korean BBQ near Chicago. The quality of the meat is fantastic and the flavors are authentic. I especially loved the pork belly, brisket, and spicy pork. The banchan (Korean side dishes) and kimchi really complete the meal. It's a fun interactive dining experience and great for groups. read more

Good food and service..i suggest if you only like certain items go for the regular pricing. I like it that some tables are in a booth.

My bf and I came here on a Saturday around 1:30 pm and it took quite some time before we were seated. They only have a few 2 person tables so it takes a while to clear and clean the tables. We were seated around 45 min later. You add your party to a waitlist on yelp and you get seated when the table opens up and your entire party is present. My bf and I usually just do the regular set. The premium really only has galbi and seafood as additional options. My favorite meats are the brisket and pork belly. You can do so many flavor combinations with these meats using the picked radish, the homemade kimchi, or the dipping sauces. My bf really enjoys the bulgogi. You can probably skip the spicy pork. In terms of appetizers, I enjoyed the spicy tofu soup. It had a lot of veggies and tofu in it and it was a good flavor, not too salty or spicy. The corn cheese was a bit too cheesy for me. The Korean fried chicken was nicely fried but it was a bit bland and there wasn't a lot of flavor in the batter. The egg dish was perfectly soft and fluffy and expertly seasoned. I could eat 2 of them but that would be too many eggs in a day haha. Service was very prompt and professional. Our waiter would watch our grill and change it out when he saw that it was charring. We didn't even have to ask. He would also come around and grill our meat and cut it up. Our waiter also came over and asked us what meats we wanted for our next round whenever we finished going through our previous round. The workers here run a tight ship. Mr. Kimchi is my favorite Korean bbq place in Illinois and their success is really showing. There's been a lot more branches opening up all over the suburbs! Glad Korean food is so well received all over the area :) read more

The service was great. Food was good. And the place was ran like a well oiled machine. Everyone seemed to help each other out and we were constantly being checked on. The place overall is clean. My family and I did the $34.95 AYCE option vs the $29.95 option. The main difference- there was more beef and seafood options with the $34.95 plan. I really wanted to try the galbi and the shrimp- which were both good, but could skip the next time we visit. You can order up to 3 meats at a time- the serving sizes are just right. You also get your bon chon and have sizes to order from- I highly recommend the spicy tofu soup... My family and I really enjoyed the brisket and bulgogi, soy marinated pork and the Korean fried chicken (KFC). My only complaint was the wait. It wasn't bad at 45 minutes on a Friday night, but I wish you could get on the wait list prior to getting there. They even use Yelp for the waitlist so I don't think it'd be that hard setting up a sign up in the app.... read more

Mr Kimchi - Golf Road - Korean Near Me - Mount Prospect, Illinois

Compared to their Mt Prospect location, the place is older, and could use a little refresher. Korean BBQ is by nature very easy to get oily/sticky inside (that's why I go out to eat this meal rather than doing it at home), and while the location didn't feel "dirty", it didn't feel "clean" either. Hope this makes sense. Food was very good - still loving their Korean chicken, thought that's technically not part of the BBQ. The marinated cuts of meats were on the sweeter side than I prefer, but yummy to the American tastebuds. Service was good. Our server was knowledgeable and attentive. They also have Korean comic books at the entrance! Though we didn't have to wait for a table and I had no time to read anything. read more

I went to Mr Kimchi last night with my son. We had gone there several years ago when he got his Masters Degree. We decided to go there for a father-son night out - a special evening with a memory of the great time we had several years ago. We were surprised to see they are now "all you can eat." Neither of us were sure what to expect, but after the wonderful experience last time, we were excited to give it a try. We hadn't considered they might be under new ownership and things had changed. We arrived early, at about 5 PM, since we assumed there would be a wait on a Friday night. There is a Yelp check-in stand where you get on their wait list. I added us to the list and we waited for about 15 minutes before we were seated. There are two options, one with about 25 menu choices for one price, and for a little higher price, about 30 options. For the difference we went for all 30 (even though there were a few items we didn't have interest in). The main difference was there was no seafood on the smaller menu, nor were there intestines (which was fine by us...). First, they brought some appetizers - fish cakes, rice cakes, salad, kimchee, japchae, and a couple of other things. They were good - the kimchee was very mild but tasty. For the first round, and you can order up to three items at a time, we got brisket, kalbi, and pork belly. It came out quickly and the server put the brisket on the grill for us. We added the pork belly since it was rather thick and would take a while to cook. The brisket was not spiced at all but they serve rice and two dipping sauces - a mustard and a sesame sauce. They also have a salt shaker. It needed something so we found it went well with the sesame. The other meats, the pork belly and the kalbi were also served without spice so you do need to add something. Then, we tried the spicy tofu soup - that was one of two items that stood out. It wasn't very spicy but did have some heat. Then, we tried the shrimp and the bulgogi. The bulgogi was the other stand out item. The shrimp is served whole and cooks quickly on the hot grill. It is a little difficult to peel and devein after cooking but it was fine. My son was slowing down by that point but I wanted to try the chicken teriyaki and the spicy squid. The chicken was good, the squid was okay. That last serving out me over the edge. They also serve rice but if you want seconds, they charge you for more. The good - the service was really outstanding. The not so good - the quality of the meats has really gone down since our last visit. The all-you-can-eat angle probably brings in a lot of people, and certainly, with all we ate, it would have cost much more if we ordered a la carte. But in doing so, the restaurant has lost some of it's ambiance. If you want a lot of food for a reasonable price, by all means, Mr Kimchi is a good choice. If you want good Korean Barbeque and an authentic experience, maybe you should think about trying another place. Too bad. read more

I've been here a few times so far and the food always comes out relatively quick. Service is okay but not always the nicest. There is a decent variety and they do change out the grill top as many times as you'd like. I think the price for the regular all you can eat is decent for what you're getting. It's a fun experience overall, and worth a try. read more

Basically, excellent meats and decent sides. We got brisket, different kinds of pork belly (garlic, onion, ginger), and pork shoulder. The fattiness, tenderness, thickness, and flavor of the meat were all on point. Garlic pork belly was our favorite of the pork belly options. I like the medium portion size they give you so that it's easier not to over order. Regarding the sides. Kimchi was bland. Jigae tasted store bought. Fried Chicken is not normally something you find at kbbq but we were curious. Skip it. Steamed egg, cheese corn, and white rice, however, were very good! Employees were on top of tending to our table but could be friendlier. Lots of seating for small to big groups. read more

Pretty good overall experience- hectic and bustling and lively atmosphere- along with the smoke and noise - great music (oddly enough the music contributed in part to the great environment. I went for the "deluxe" AYCE experience which meant you get prime steak and squid / shrimp and octopus as well. The Banchan were pretty good. Red radish was delicious and also I was surprised how tasty the spicy tofu soup was (didn't expect that). Next time I will try the Ramen "help yourself" station. Service is fast and plentiful but completely chaotic and oddly amusing - definitely a place to come with friends. I enjoyed the clear shoju and ended the meal with peach ice cream and a mango smoothie which gave me brain Freeze! Well worth the visit Notes - you will need to wash your clothes afterwards. - you put your name down on a iPad wait list and then they call you when ready - it was absolutely packed (we went on a Saturday night around 6pm and didn't get a table until 7pm but was worth waiting for. - bathroom is relatively clean - tip (18%) is automatically included - which surprised me but was also reassuring. - read more

Bring your intermittent fasting appetite here! Meat was great but seafood was ok. Shrimp hard to peel and squid was chewy. BUT ramen bar is Stick to the basic lunch AYCE.

Mr Kimchi - Golf Road - Korean Near Me - Mount Prospect, Illinois

Came here for lunch with a group of friends for a friend's birthday right when it opened for the day on a Saturday afternoon. Even though we were literally the first and only customers we were instructed to check in on the tablet and the entire party (we were only missing 1 person) had to be present before we could be seated. There was a sign up front that said to let them know about birthday celebrations which I did. The hostess said to let our server know and after we were seated our server acknowledged that it was our friend's birthday. We reminded our server at the end of our meal and he said he totally forgot (the treat was a small cupcake but couldn't give it to our friend to go). We decided to order off of the regular all you can eat menu ($29.95/person) which includes mostly pork/chicken and two beef options. The premium menu ($34.95/person) has more beef options. We tried the following: brisket, bulgolgi, pork belly, thinly sliced pork belly, Korean fried chicken, corn cheese, and egg casserole. Normally brisket is my go to meat for Korean BBQ but the brisket was a pretty thick cut of beef and I'm normally used to thinly sliced beef so it was a huge disappointment. The bulgolgi was pretty standard. The pork belly was super fatty and I could feel the oil splattering all over my face and clothes as it was cooking. The corn cheese was pretty decent and the egg casserole was okay but bland in flavor. I also don't understand why they charge extra for rice and lettuce wraps when they're typically included at other Korean BBQ places. I brought my 4 year old and they charge $2.50 per age but she mostly just ate the radish and barely touched the meat so I would not recommend bringing kids unless they can eat their fill. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back (at least to this location). read more

It's looks like a tiny mall store front that is as wide as the UPS Store next door As a Korean BBQ, I'd say it's more a grow-er than a show-er (ie Iron Age) but the quality is much better, so... it's defo the yummy in the tummy that counts! Prefer a tablet kiosk sign-in that texts your phone over a lame person hatching a pile of buzzers, so another win! I'm not a fan of the hostess trying to select who gets a booth vs. getting assigned to a cafeteria bench of a room, though. Stop being a hater with your droopy fake lashes. Anywho, the server was super nice, and he was so accommodating with recommendations and suggestions. It's not a bad option for $35pp, though charging for lettuce and extra servings of rice is lame. read more

All in all, service was EXCELLENT. Quan was phenomenal and assisted us throughout our entire meal with ease and kindness. Getting seated is convenient. You enter your info at the kiosk and then wait in your car to be rung or texted once your table was ready. For a Saturday early evening, we got sat within 5-10 minutes! The side dishes are already prepared for you once you are seated. The process and menu are explained thoroughly and you choose your meats! My only gripe was no rice cakes on the menu, not even as a main dish...it's all about those cakes for me! However, their kimchi is excellent! Super tasty, more spicy than sour and very crunchy and dark red. Might just be their namesake! Meat was tasty but a little too much on the fatty side. I recommend sticking with the classics- brisket, bogolgi and pork belly. They offer soju and this delicious mango drink called Korean Candy. The rim comes with Tajín and a nice slice of mango on a stick. Delicious! read more

Price is 35 bucks per person. Now 1 person can have 3 meats in table. But a party of 4 paying also only get 3 meats in table. Service. The server knowing that 18% is automatically added Kennedy give you the worst service. Where she got an argument with the server because they went and fill drinks they wouldn't get the meat they just passed us over and over nothing was ever cleaned. By far the top worst restaurant I've ever had for customer service. The music is way too loud you can't even talk to each other at the tables. Overall they're so many different hotpots this one's definitely not worth it I've been to these before. This is probably one of the worst I have ever gone and never will go back to read more

If you're coming from either of the coasts, then the AYCE KBBQ will definitely be a bit of a letdown compared to NYC/DMV area or California, but Mr. Kimchi is a very solid spot to fill your AYCE KBBQ cravings. Came here a little after 6 on a Saturday for a party of 3. Joined the waitlist and got a text saying our table was ready after about 20 minutes. They only do reservations for parties of 10 or more, otherwise it's first-come-first-serve walk-ins only. There's a tablet in the front to join the Yelp waitlist for your table. There's not much to do in the area so definitely be prepared to hang around. At any rate, the food is always solid here. I would recommend the $30 regular AYCE just because the extra offerings aren't really worth it in my opinion. They have a variety of choices to pick from, but I personally always go for the thin sliced beef, bulgogi, and pork belly as my meats. I've tried a lot of the other items, but things like chicken I'm not crazy about for KBBQ. The sides are also solid. Corn cheese, egg casserole, and spicy tofu soup are my go-tos. I think everyone gets one complimentary bowl of rice, but every additional order of rice is $2 which feels a bit ridiculous to me. Wouldn't you want us to fill up on rice instead of meet? Also feels like they barely fill up the bowls for rice. At any rate, the service is pretty solid. Our waiter was nice and we got our meat orders in pretty quickly with the other side dishes like the egg casserole or tofu soup 5min or so after the meats. The place is a bit dark, but the ambiance is what you'd expect from a KBBQ spot. A lot of the seating is decently spaced and separated out so it does at least feel kind of intimate. Overall, while it doesn't beat some of the AYCE KBBQ I've had in LA or on the east coast, this one is def my top choice for AYCE KBBQ in the Chicagoland area. It's a bit of a trek, but it'll definitely hit the spot when the craving comes. I believe they also just opened up a second location about 15min driving north of this one. Will definitely have to pay that location a visit the next time I'm in the mood for it! read more

Excellent service, Aza is our server, excellent service from start to finish. Very attentive and polite.

Came here on a Friday night for a party of 4 and when we checked in at 7:50pm we had to wait until 8:45pm for a table to open up. You check in via Yelp at the front of the restaurant and then wait in your car. Your full party must be present to be able to sit down. We sat in the front of the restaurant where there are long tables but there are many more tables in the back. It can be cold for the people sitting at the end of the table as people open the front doors of the restaurant - but this can be a welcome breeze for the people closer to the cooktop. Their restrooms are in the far back. The staff was quick to refill our side dishes and bring out our orders. We all did the premium all you can eat ($34.99) plus a pitcher of beer and a flavored soju. We did three rounds total of 3 meats at a time. We all agreed our favorite meat was the Bulgogi. The Galbi had a good flavor but was quite chewy. The NY steak was also good. The shrimp portion includes 5 shrimps. The meats/seafood without marinade taste good with the included sauces - sesame oil with salt and pepper and fermented soy bean. It can be hard to get the meat/seafood crispy as you cook over parchment paper (for easy cleaning for the restaurant I assume). We all only had 1 bowl of rice each and 2 rounds of the side dishes/banchan. We also got orders of KFC (Korean fried chicken), fried veggie dumpling (my personal favorite) and corn cheese which we all enjoyed. We thought the portions were fair for the price and even though we had 2 hours to eat we all tapped out by 1.5 hrs in. It might be hard to have a large group with the size of their cooktop but for 4 people or less it's a nice size. read more

We had a table of 6, came at 5PM and seated quickly. When we were leaving around 7:30PM there was a long line waiting. The place is cozy and well organized. The server was attentive and checked in on intervals. We ordered multiple rounds pretty quickly. The server started the brisket first so first bbq plate lasted the longest without become burnt. We messed up and put pork shoulder on first when the plate was changed and it got burnt quickly without the extra oil. Meats we tried: brisket, galbi, Mr. Kimchi (pepper steak), bulgogi, regular pork belly, pork shoulder, baby octopus Favs: galbi, bulgogi and pork belly. The galbi and bulgogi are both marinated and were tender after cooking. And the easiest to cook. Pork belly wasn't super fatty and were cut into even strips so they were easy to snip into smaller pieces with the scissors. Brisket is sliced thin but comes to the table still fully frozen. Takes a while for the bbq plate to get hot enough to defrost and cook the brisket despite it being thin. Sometimes the slices are stuck together and you have to slowly cook and peel them apart. There are also some really fatty pieces. Mr. Kimchi steak is also good but they plate three slabs of steak and then add the pepper and salt so only the top slab gets a full coat of pepper and the other two are unevenly coated which I find odd. Pork shoulder was okay but not as nice the pork belly Baby octopus was the worse for me. Would probably have preferred squid. Banchan - the potato was bland and the onion no one touched We used the lettuce salad as some crunch since lettuce wrap cost extra. The kimchi was well made and our fav was the paper radishes, great for wrapping the meat for extra crunch and cuts the oil. Sides: overall kind of variable between each round they brought them over. KFC - three pieces of fried chicken thigh. Was crispy, classic, nothing crazy special. Steamed egg - a few times it was fluffy and light. Others it was overcooked or stuck to the bottom. Tofu soup seem half filled and didn't have much beside gochugaru and tofu. Soybean soup - our first one was really good. The next two were super salty Corn cheese - this is mostly cheese and no cheese pull. Sauce - a bean sauce dip and a sesame oil with salt and pepper. They have extra salt and pepper shaker but it's mixed together and like 80% salt. I wish they had a separate pepper shaker. Overall experience was great. The booths are nice and built to seat large tables. The service was on par with our pace and we didn't even have a call button on our table. I felt like it was pretty worth it. Would come back again. read more

It's AYCE and you can upgrade to the premium for $35 which included some seafood options and additional meats. For the price, it's not bad for the meat quality. The baby octopus was bigger than we expected and grill nicely with the spicy sauce, but the spicy sauce would have been better as a dipping sauce for the octopus. Services could be better. Our server was nice and they did changed our grill a lot but kinda slow. This location is smaller than the other location on Randhurst but has plenty of seating to accommodate large groups. read more

This is a solid korean bbq place. My favorite part is the breadth of options available for appetizers and meats. Service is quite lacking though. Quality- my favorite here is the Cajun pork belly, egg casserole, Calbee, intestines, and Mr. Steak. All of these options are seasoned well and tastes fresh. The other meat options like the brisket, chicken, and soups are poorly seasoned or not cooked right. Im happy there's some good options here. Quantity- AYCE is worth it for the price here. Only 34 bucks for dinner and 25 bucks for lunch. Atmosphere- I like the seating available for parties of 6. Feels welcoming. Service- very slow. There's also no buzzer to get them to come here for more food. We waited like 10 minutes between rounds for them to come. read more

This is my favorite KBBQ spot. So many options, good flavors and variety of sides, and they've added things consistently. Grill tops are changed frequently. The only thing I will ding is service. Not just at this location but across all of the Mr. Kimchis, it can be really hard to flag down a server or it takes quite a while for us to order/receive our food. Also note that even though it says they're open until midnight, food stops being served around 10-10:30pm and they won't seat you. Same thing for their lunch hours. I showed up for lunch one day around 1 and even though it said they closed at 3:00pm, we were shooed away. I think that and the service is the only thing that needs to be modified. Other than that, you won't be disappointed coming here. Good food, good atmosphere, good prices. And all you can eat! read more

Everything comes out so fast and it's a great price. The brisket and thinly sliced pork belly is everything you need to keep coming out.

Mr Kimchi - Golf Road - Korean Near Me - Mount Prospect, Illinois

Food: we got the Premium AYCE that was $34.95. I definitely recommend getting the premium one because it is more worth it for the extra beef and seafood options available. The bulgolgi was surprisingly very tender and juicy. The Mr steak was tender but a bit over seasoned with pepper. The baby octopus was not cleaned very well so I had sand with every mouthful. But overall very good choices available and most meat were fresh and flavorful. Service: the service was very good, our server was very attentive and came by often to get our orders. Caveat is that you can order only three meats per round and have a two hour so you have to time the ordering right so you don't "waste" time. Ambiance: casual vibes read more

Mr. Kimchi is probably my favorite kbbq restaurant near the Chicagoland area. Although their prices aren't the cheapest, I feel like their fresh arrangement of foods are worth it. Their premium menu includes a LOT of protein options. Some of these options aren't seen in a lot of other kbbq places too. Some of my favorites include the brisket, beef thin intestines, and thinly sliced pork belly. If you aren't up for it, you can skip the intestines, but the brisket and pork belly are must gets! Soo good! Their spicy tofu soup is also very tasty. I love that there is an -unlimited-arrangement of banchans you can pair your proteins with too. This is a great place for small or large parties. You will have a blast cooking and drinking with friends! read more

Pretty good! Mr Kimchi is your bog-standard AYCE Korean BBQ joint. Service is decent enough, they replace your cooking surface on every order of meat, which depending on how you like to cook, is either great or unwelcome. Their up-charged menu doesn't provide enough extra variety to make it worth while, their basic menu offers everything that I would typically order. Good food, good service, I will be back. read more

Ample parking, that's the easy part. This place is pretty popular especially on the weekends so go ahead and put yourself on the waitlist inside the restaurant. While waiting, you can do some window shopping to burn time. After you get inside, the service was okay, not super attentive due to shortage. Once you get seated, this is very important to people unfamiliar with this type of dining, you have to cook your own food. If you don't like it then you can let the next customers take your place. Not a hard concept to follow if you're open minded and not lazy. If you're decent at cooking then the food will be delicious. As you can see from my pictures, you can get a lot of great items in that ayce price. Ayce price is affordable and this is one of my favorite kbbq places. read more

We trekked to the burbs of Chicago and arrived early, eager to get a table after hearing rave reviews from friends. We still waited in a short line before being seated in a private room. We got the premium AYCE package but probably would have been just fine getting regular since we did not order many of the premium only items. The meat was tasty but we had some cuts that were overly chewy and hard to swallow. Shrimp was good and so was the Korean fried chicken and tofu stew. Flavors were to be expected but the inconsistent quality of the meat will keep us city folk from making another long drive back to this AYCE kbbq. read more
