New Seoul Korean Bbq - Des Plaines

Quaint family run restaurant. Phenomenal food! No frills dining, effort is put into experience and cuisine. Can't wait to go back.

AMBIANCE Reservations for a large (12) extended family gathering for KBBQ and they had a backroom table (jokingly but appropriately called the storage room) that could accommodate us. Was adequate and actually quiet and less smoky then the common area. Very private until a foursome came in layer and got seated by the boxes. FOOD Good cuts of brisket and beef, but they tend to run out of side dishes, and are not the best on service when it starts to get busy. Had to ask multiple times for rice … – show

Cooking the food on the charcoal grill created a lot of smoke. I feel like all that smoke ruined the taste of the food for me. Besides that, the staff were very friendly. They also gave us some treats in the end!

The best lunch and dinner spot in the entire state. The staff is very friendly and courteous. Overall environment of this restaraunt is one worth experiencing. There is no other Korean BBQ restaraunt worth going to after being here.

First time at a kbbq place and it was pretty great! Was talking with some other customers and they said they love this place because the fires aren't using charcoal to barbecue your food. The staff are all so nice as well and they let you know more about the food (i.e. spice level specificity, cook time for meals, etc). The food itself was absolutely delicious and made you wanting more.
