Chicago Galbi House

Hopefully the third time is the charm with this location!

Chicago Galbi House is on the corner between the spa and the Wendys on the island in this area. There's plenty of parking space and seating for about 80+ patrons.

Tonight the noodle entrees and the Daikon/Jalapeno banchan were all out but we were still able to get a good fare of food around. I ordered the spicy stir-fried pork dish with a mellow sweet and spicy sauce, while we had the kimchi pancake (kimchi-jeon) and the mountain bulgogi. As others have mentioned there are unlimited sides with your order, but chances are you'll only need to go with 2-3 rounds if you like them, otherwise they appear to go to waste if you replace them.

Ian and Min were very helpful in recommending what to try and anything else we requested tonight. Props to them. The nappa Kimchi here still is at its early stages of fermentation. Loved the cucumber kimchi, the fish cake, and the Daikon/jalapeno. The lita squash was a little mid though.

The entrees arrived very quickly and we were able to demolish most of the meal after it was cooked. Outside of having my tongue cooked from eating the mountain bulgogi within the spicy pork plate, this is a welcoming Korean restaurant that you should definitely check out.

Excellent food with top of the line table grills so you don't get smoked out. High quality meats.

Very clean new place nice food and service was good.

"Man, we got a new K-BBQ joint in town, and I was so pumped that I rushed over there. Galbi was incredibly tender, no smoke while grilling, and the side dishes were on point. Plus, the interior of the place was real nice, being a new spot and all. I'm definitely going to visit again."

We came here for the soft opening and the staff were very welcoming. The restaurant was so clean and the tables were already set up for diners. The food was delicious and the side dishes are unlimited. I would recommend looking at their Specials, especially their Mountain Bulgogi, as it was very filling and a fun experience overall!
