“ Excellent bulgogi at this Korean bbq reataurant in Lake Zurich. Set up mostly as a lunch place (from a seating/decor perspective). Huge and tasty fried dumplings too. ”
“ We enjoyed the beef bulgogi, Korean pancake, and crispy tofu. We liked the beef bulgogi and Korean pancake, but would try ordering something else like dumplings instead of the crispy tofu if we came back again. The food quantity was good for the price. It is easy to drive by this restaurant and not notice it. I sat at one of the few tables that had a view of the lake across the street. ”
