Lemont House

Love this place and the good. Can’t wait to see the updates and get back. Best wishes!

The food at this restaurant is absolutely delicious, and the servers are incredibly kind and friendly. I recently learned that one of the servers has passed away, and it breaks my heart. He was always so sweet to me and my family, truly one of the nicest people I've ever met. I wasn't able to be there during my family's last visit, and I regret not going with them so I could see him one last time. Despite this loss, my family and I cherish many wonderful memories with him. For instance, when I was about eight years old, I told him about a book I was reading that featured seaweed. He kindly brought out a plate of seaweed for me to try. That's just one of the many thoughtful gestures he made that enhanced our experience at the restaurant. The food is fantastic as well. Wishing everyone a great day, and may the kind server rest in peace (I'm sorry I don’t know his name).

Lemont House consistently leaves us satisfied and smiling. Here are some dishes you absolutely have to try: the Hammel Pajin (Korean seafood pancake), the Mapo Tofu (it's a unique twist on the Chinatown style I'm used to, but it's fantastic), the bulgogi beef, and the fried rice, which ranks among the top three I've ever had. And be sure to order plenty of Soju to share!

On a different note, Lemont House is undoubtedly the finest Chinese and Korean cuisine around—there is truly no comparison. It would be a tremendous loss if Lemont House doesn’t reopen. Many families, including mine, would be deeply affected without the comfort of their delicious meals. My family has been loyal patrons, dining there twice a week for years. We all greatly miss Lemont House. If anyone has information about their potential reopening, please reach out to me at 630-939-2001.

This is some of the finest Chinese and Korean cuisine I've come across. The owners and staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. I highly recommend it!
