"At Chicago Kalbi, Korean and Japanese BBQ come together in a cozy space that feels like the Japanese baseball hall of fame. A display of signed baseballs grace the front bar and autographed photos of Japanese home run stars line the walls (but they need Shohei’s to complete the collection). Other than coming to admire the memorabilia, the main reason to visit is for their great yakiniku. They have a variety of delicious meats like spicy marinated pork belly, beef tongue, and Japanese wagyu—which you get to cook yourself on their charcoal grills. Each meal comes with some plates of banchan, but be sure to also order a few appetizers like seafood pajun or crispy kara-age. " - john ringor, adrian kane
