Reviews


This restaurant offers a great Korean BBQ experience with a variety of delicious meats and banchan dishes. Customers rave about the authenticity and quality of the food, particularly highlighting the Bulgogi and Wang Kalbi. The staff is friendly and attentive, and prices are reasonable for the portions provided. While some dishes such as the pork belly and soup may fall short, overall the dining experience is satisfying and fulfilling. The only drawback seems to be the smoky ambiance due to ventilation issues. Despite this, the restaurant is recommended for groups looking for a hearty and flavorful meal in Chicago, San Soo Gab San typically has an average rating of 4.1.
