Gao's Kabob Chicago

Chinese restaurant · Chinatown

@infatuation

"Despite its location on a quiet side street off Wentworth, this BYOB Chinese BBQ spot is one of the most exciting places to eat in the neighborhood. Even on a Monday, Gao’s Kabob starts getting busy around 8 or 9pm. As groups file in, the bright space echoes with chatter and music from Chinese variety TV shows. Bottles and six-packs make their rounds while skewers of garlicky fried intestines and spicy grilled lamb land at each table. This continues until they close, which is at 1:30am seven days a week.
