I'm not an expert on Korean cuisine, but if you imagined having a delicious home cooked meal at a Korean friend's house with Mom's hospitality, then Cafe Corea would hit the spot. None of that Seoul Taco business (I've had and not impressed). I've always enjoyed the Bulgogi, pork Bulgogi if I want to change it up a bit coz it has just a little heat, Kalguksu coz of the noodles (chewy, yummy goodness) and their little side dishes of diced/marinated potatoes, kimchee, sprouts, etc. I'm not that adventurous and have yet to order other items on their menu, but at the end of the meal I always walk away satisfied.
Delicious, delicately flavored food prepared from fresh ingredients. Charming and attentive front staff in a sweet space. The mochi - usually not my thing - was especially yummy. BYOB!
Your dishes are prepared from scratch & come with fresh aromas and simple, yet delicate presentation. The eating area is intimate & unpretentious, the service makes you feel like royalty.
Very good real Korean Restaurant I will come back!!! Thank you so much for the Food!!!
Authentic Korean food that reminds me of the stuff my family makes all the time, perfect for getting a Korean food fix in a part of Chicago where authentic Korean food is hard to find. The prices can be a little intimidating, but some of these items are meant to be shared: in that case I recommend bringing a friend or two. And when it comes to the soup-based dishes, trust me: you're gonna be taking some of that home.
