New Village Gastropub & Karaoke

Cozy little place. Just dark enough for a cute atmosphere with colored fairy lights and a projector playing K-pop. Friendly staff and delicious food. I ordered the beef dish from the top of the special menu (yum!) and an "oriental raisin" hot tea -- pretty sure it's red date (subtle flavor but warming amd lovely). Would order both again, but everything else also looked fantastic.

Finally, I got to enjoy the delicious food and atmosphere here🥰. Loved every bit of it and can't wait to go back!! Everything was delicious!!

The interior is clean and the staff is really friendly. This reminds me of a traditional Korean pub. Good place for drinks and Korean foods with friends.

We stopped by this Korean restaurant while exploring the local Korean town area, and it did not disappoint! The location is surrounded by other great spots, but this one really stood out. We had the spicy chicken feet, soup, and whole fried chicken, paired with some beers and soju. The food was absolutely amazing – authentic flavors and generous portions! Everything was packed with spice and flavor, just the way we like it. We had a great time here and will definitely come back again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a true Korean dining experience!

Great food and vibes! Their Korean market style chicken is my personal favorite and their food quality and taste does not disappoint. Their server John is always friendly and gives great service. Can’t wait to try their karaoke as I’ve heard it’s a blast. Definitely a fun spot when you’re craving that authentic Korean pocha vibe in the Midwest. Will be going back again

First things first, we had silkworm soup which the silkworm were chewy and bursted in your mouth along with the flavorful spices in the soup. Wash it down with some soju. I also loved the seafood pancakes, maybe I just am biased and like seafood pancakes in general for their crispy texture and this one had a fair amount of seafood. The market chicken was whole fried, came with salt and pepper, but I would’ve loved to see maybe some sort of soy garlic whole fried chicken, it’s one of my favorite flavors. If I’m at a Korean restaurant, I’m trying their bulgogi as a baseline for the experience and this bulgogi was top tier. Sweet and tender and should absolutely be in the conversation for top 3 bulgogi I’ve had. A unique dish that I haven’t tried yet anywhere else is the Sea Snail and Squid Muchim. I liked the chewy noodles and the sweet and spicy sauce binding the shellfish together. A dish they insisted we try is this Goporitang soup with flat noodles. It’s a soup with a whole chicken, intestines, veggies, scallions and potatoes bathing in a very aromatic spicy broth. When I smelled the soup even my nose tingled, but the soup is hearty and I can see the appeal of this being their most popular dish. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this place, great Korean spot in the north suburbs, and it’s open very late for that true pocha experience.

Food was good and the tables have little buttons to call the waiter whenever you need anything. And they’re fast! All restaurants should adapt this

Good place for mingling with your friends This place is quite busy most of the time. They don’t take reservations over the phone but you can make reservations on yelps or walking to make reservations at the tablet. There is a button somewhere at the table. Press the button to call a server. We did press the button 3 times within 20 mins until someone came to take our order. Food was good. Our favorite is spicy stir-fried pork with cheese. The price is reasonable.

05/24/25 - First time @ New Village Gastro Pub @ 3566 Milwaukee Ave in Northbrook & it won't be my last time. I can here w/my wife & 3 siblings visiting from out of state. We came here near the last day of my sister from Virginia & brother from Berkley CA visit My sister Sue (11 year Yelp Elite) turned us on to this place. Really a cool vibe but a much much younger crowd than my family. Even tho us old geezers really enjoyed the vibe & the food both were outstanding. It's great when we get together as we can enjoy each others company & order food family style which gives us an opportunity to try many different dishes. The food & service were outstanding. She sister had been here before so she deferred ordering to her expertise. She did a great job w/her selection & we all enjoyed a tremendous meal. She started w/a hot pot that was very good (spicy) loaded w/all sorts of goodies meats, veggies....she ordered a whole fried chicken that was absolutely remarkable. The server brought the chicken to the table & proceeded to tear it apart w/her thermal mitts. The chicken was one of the stars of the meal w/thin chicken skin that seasoned superbly & was super crispy. That skin was to die for. The other dishes one Pork Bulgogi w/shredded scallions & tofu. The steamy egg soufflé w/cheese was excellent. There was another dish w/bacon & the long rice noodles. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal as the ambiance was really cool vibe, excellent food, great service & best of all getting to enjoy this w/my wife &

New Village has a lively and vibrant vibe. The lights, the sounds, murals and decor invites you in for an exciting night of food and fun with friends/family. I was really excited until we walked in and was met with a strong strange smell of cleaning product/bathroom/wet mop. It was odd because I was expecting aromas of delicious Korean food. It is such a great place to gather it's easy to overlook the unpleasant smell. We spent two hours in the Big Karaoke Room. The maximum number of people for the Big room is 16 people. We had 15 people and were quite comfortable. The staff members serving us were super helpful, attentive, and friendly catering to our large group. The karaoke equipment took a minute to figure out and navigate for a non Korean-reading/speaking non-Korean. There was a youtube option to pull up songs, but the host said since their internet was spotty, using the traditional Karaoke tablet was recommended-- but this option takes a minute to figure out how to use their catalog system of songs. Also, the tablet to select songs is not bluetooth so I had to remember to aim the tablet at the machine to make a selection like a remote control. Once we figured everything out, it was a blast singing popular songs together! *Just a side note, we had some kids with us, most songs seemed to be the originals (not edited/radio version) Considering it being a pub, it probably isn't meant for kids---however, we still felt comfortable bringing the kids and the family had a great time together! We ordered a few Korean Style Market Chickens, Steamed & Fried Dumplings, Bulgolgi, Seafood Pancakes, Bossam, sweet potato and truffle fries, and popcorn chicken. The food came out sizzling hot, fried chicken was crispy, seafood pancakes were panfried yet fluffy and full of big pieces of seafood/veggies mixed in. I would definitely come again for a group gathering!

Such good Korean food! We came here on a Wednesday night and it was still pretty full, I can only imagine what a weekend rush would be like. There were 2-3 waiters, they have bells you can ring when you need something and the waiters are really quick at attending to you. We got the spam and kimchi friend rice, tteokbokki, and the stir fried squid with noodles. We didn't like the fried rice, there wasn't much flavor to it. But we loved the squid with the noodles, so spicy, flavorful and delicious! Definitely coming back for more of their food!!

Really really solid Korean food. This is probably one of my favorite Korean spots in the suburbs. The restaurant is in a strip shopping center with other stores. There's plenty of tables in the restaurant to seat a small party. We came on a Tuesday at 5:45 pm and the restaurant quickly filled up by 6:30 pm. My friends and I shared the rose tokbokki, the seafood jampong, and the fried chicken. Everything tasted superb. The chicken was perfectly seasoned with crispy skin and tender meat. The jampong came with generous portions of seafood and noodles. The soup had a Smokey flavor and was full of depth. The rose tokbokki reminded me of Indian butter chicken. Inside the dish there were glass noodles, sausages, bacon, and rice cakes. The rice is free of charge which is a nice perk, since a lot of places usually charge you $1 for it. The service was super friendly and efficient. Will definitely be back to try more of their menu items. I love that the tables come with call buttons so you can get helped very quickly.

Solid 포차! We celebrate a friend's birthday here - comfortable place to hang out with pretty good food. Waiter was friendly and appreciated his service. Would come back

Amazing Korean food! I was a bit worried the food wouldn't be as good for takeout, but everything was great. The kimchi fried rice, whole fried chicken, and squid spicy cold noodles were super delicious and I definitely recommend trying those out! If you don't really feel like eating in this restaurant's environment, takeout is just as good!

Bustling fun atmosphere with excellent fast service & extensive menu of Korean pub food. Stopped by after a round of golf for some Somek (soju+beer) and their famous whole Korean fried chicken and army stew which hit the spot for us. Will definitely go back to try other pub dishes when in the area.

Very authentic!!!! New Village Gastro Pub was worth the hype I've seen online. They had a huge menu so it was hard to choose what to get. My favorite (and everyone's favorite) was the fried rice. We got it without spam and it was still very good. The popcorn chicken was also a hit. It was super crunchy and came with a really good sauce. I didn't love the Traditional Tteok bok ki because it was very spicy and I didn't like that the dumplings in it came fried. We also tried the beef bulgogi & that was another favorite of the table. It's pretty small inside, so if you have a bigger group I would recommend making a reservation. Overall, I want to go back to try more things on the menu!!

Growing up in the North shore in the 90s and always being asked "where are you from?" It brings a special joy to my heart that Korea is no longer an unknown country. From K-pop to K-beauty and most important of all K-food! Start to finish New Village Gastro pub is amazing! The decor alone is visually delightful. It really feels like you're in "old school" Korea during the days of pojang macha. Even the tables remind you! You have to check out the karaoke alley too! All of their food is great. Ddukbokgee, the whole chicken, the snail & squid muchim. My mouth is watering thinking of all the things they have there. It's a busy place so try to grab ressies if you can. I've been there several times but my first time posting a review. Service is great and just like a Korean place they have those wonderful bells that call the servers so you don't have to flag someone down like you're landing a plane. Also try their drinks! I personally liked their screw cocktail. Soju, sprite, and a screw popsicle (Korean). So refreshing. New Village is a great place to celebrate being alive!

We come by Niles at least once a year when we are in town but I don't remember coming across this restaurant. I was looking for Korean food with good reviews, so decided to meet here with friends. We ordered just two items, I wish I can order every item on the menu. We got the snail squid moochim. It was refreshing and delightful. I really liked the crunch from the cabbage, onions, and the addition of perilla leaves. The seasoning was slightly spicy and squid and snail proteins were a good combination to the veggies. I do think the chewy noodle ratio was small compared to the rest of the entree ingredients. The portion was huge. My hubby ordered the spicy pork with cheese. I had a bite of it and although I am not a big fan of cheese these days, it paired well with the pork. I will be coming back the next time I am in town.

Great place for late night Korean food outside of Chicago. I could pick at the cheesy corn, the cheesy pork and teubokki all day too. The army stew is huge and feeds 4 (I think). The staff are really nice and attentive and the karaoke rooms are just on the other side. If you need to eat some good food and let out some steam, this place is perfect.

Food is excellent. Probably the best dduk I've ever had. The chicken feet were too spicy tho! Taking off a star for the chicken feet and also because they told us the wait would be 10-20 minutes, but ended up being 45.

Stir-Fried Squid with Hand-Cut Noodles 8.72/10 - Despite my usual preference for calamari, this dish was a revelation. The tender squid was perfectly complemented by the crisp cabbage, garlic, onion, and a kick from the hot pepper. The hand-cut noodles soaked up the rich, spicy sauce, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors that left me wanting more. Truly an unexpected delight. Army Stew with Ramen Noodles 8.48/10 - This dish was a hearty, comforting bowl of deliciousness. The savory broth, though intensely spicy, paired wonderfully with the tender ramen noodles. The combination of hams, sausages, spicy kimchi, tofu, and vegetables created a rich and satisfying experience. Despite the broth's fiery heat, which tested my high spice tolerance, the flavors were balanced and deeply comforting. Beef Bulgogi 9.47/10 - A traditional masterpiece, this beef bulgogi was nothing short of exceptional. The beef was incredibly tender, and the accompanying vegetables were cooked to perfection. The flavors melded together beautifully, making each bite a delightful experience. Kimchi Fried Rice 9.67/10 - This kimchi fried rice was an absolute standout. While it was incredibly spicy, the flavors were so well balanced and it was an excellent dish. The addition of a perfectly cooked egg on top elevated the dish to new heights, adding a creamy richness that perfectly complemented the heat. The dish was a perfect blend of heat and savoriness. Can't go wrong with getting Soju as well- they had lots of options for drinks but had to go with a classic. This place not only has the best Korean food that I've had- but also offers karaoke and is open till late night! Was so excited to try this place as it was on Yelp's Top 100 and it did not disappoint. Instagram: @hungrytamale

Absolutely loved every single dish I tried here! The kimchi fried rice was amazing on its own, but mixing it with the cheese corn? Everything was packed with flavor. The vibe is super chill but still feels like a gastropub--great for a casual hangout or dinner. Service was good, and the food came out pretty quick. Definitely adding this to my regular rotation!

Yo pet five stars? I was like that's impossible so I have to try it.! They get five stars ! Responsive staff. And imaginative menu. In a great atmosphere.! I should give sex, but it does not allow for that ! Thanks for having us

We love this place and always try to come when we are in Northbrook. Very nice pub vibe and great food! From appetizer to main dishes, nothing disappoints. They are creative and the food is a perfect mix of authentic Korean with innovative elements that you don't always get elsewhere. The stews are our favorites. Downside - I wish they had bigger tables and more attentive service. It's great for casual dining!

Finally got the chance to go here after hearing about it quite a while ago. We were in the area coming back from Milwaukee and wanted to try it. As you walk in, I noticed almost everyone here was actually Korean so I knew it had to be pretty good. I was right - we were sat in about 15 minutes and both of the items were ordered were delicious. I think we both really liked the chicken gizzard for sure. As a pro tip, I would check their waitlist on Yelp to see if you can join if you're nearby during peak dining hours because I think we would have saved a little time had we done that.

This Gastro pub is so good. Excellent service food is delicious. I had the good fortune to be accepted to a Yelp event that was held here this evening . Thank you so much to my community manager, Keisha and her assistant Celeste. This is my third time at this restaurant. It's so cute great menu fantastic service. Everything is coming out fresh and piping hot. If you like fried chicken it's delicious they bring out a whole deep-fried chicken that's delicious. It's so light and crispy. Perfect flavor so moist piping hot nice and crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It needs no seasoning but if you'd like try the salt and pepper with a sesame oil on it it's delicious. Another favor that I had was the army stew that had Ramen hotdogs, Bacon, cabbage, and a hot spicy broth The drinks looked amazing our cm Keisha had a soju with a strawberry popsicle . I was tempted to order it, but my stomach wanted to have enough for him to stuff, my face with the delicious food that they offered. I want to thank the owners for inviting us they're very hospitable very nice when I've been here before the service was excellent as well as the food if you'd like to try some wonderful food come on in and give it a try I guess they have karaoke next-door too. It's open late opens up at 5 PM and if you're hungry late at night this is a place to go. Actually anytime after five if you're hungry coming, check it out.

First time eating at a K pub and I wasn't sure what to expect so I was glad one of our companions was there to guide us along. We arrived before 6pm on a Friday night and the strip mall parking lot was pretty crowded but the inside was only about 1/3 full. We weren't on the wait list but we were seated immediately. Very casual setting inside with Kpop videos playing on a large screen and small round tables and low stools. The server brought out warm bean sprout soup and pointed out the call button. I tried a soju cocktail with melona. There's a honeydew popsicle in your mug of soju and you mix it up. Fun and sweet. We ordered popcorn chicken, sweet soy chicken with peanut, kimchi fried rice, Bossam and rice cakes and sausages. Nothing too adventurous or spicy but all brought out right away and delicious. Very generous portions too. I will order the Korean market style chicken next time -- a whole fried chicken that they break apart into pieces in front of you. This place got crowded and loud within minutes. This was a fun intro to K pub and pocha (pojangmacha - street food). We used the call button to get the check and they brought it straightaway. They have karaoke booths here--another fun option to try at another visit. New Village Gastro Pub was listed on Yelp's Top 100 Restaurants in the US in 2024.

New Village Gastro Pub is always a hit everytime I come here! It's a great restaurant to unwind with friends especially during the weekends. The servers are attentive, friendly and helpful! My go-to order here is rosé tteokbokki. The sauce is very creamy and it pairs well with korean fried chicken.

My girlfriends and I came here on a Friday night and after like 630pm it got really busy. You can make reservations online. We ordered the sea snail muchim, bosam, and army stew. The snail muchim is was perfect combo of savory, sweet, crunchy, chewy, and spicy. Every bite keeps you wanting some more. The pork belly in the bosam were thinly sliced and the ssamjang went so well with it. We ended the meal with the army stew. It was the perfect warm soupy thing to have on a rainy and cold Friday night. The broth was creamy and spicy in all the right amount. We stayed there for a pretty long time just chit chatting, snacking, and drinking. I ended the night earlier, but my girlfriends ended up getting the smaller karaoke room. I'd def wanna come back for it and try other menu items as well!

New Village Gastro Pub is my go to for late night cravings!!! I love the neon lights atmosphere and the staff are friendly and service is fast. I've been here many times for lunch and dinner and food has always been very delicious!

Be transported to South Korea for dinner. This place has amazing ambience and the servers are very friendly and attentive. Price is super reasonable for the level of quality and the portion. Got the fried chicken, a whole twice fried chicken that is extra crispy on the outside and super tender on the inside. It comes pipping hot to your table whole and the servicer will break it up by hand for you. Didn't get a pre pic because I wasn't paying attention till they started breaking it down. Got the Golbaengi-muchim (Sea Snail And Squid Muchim) to go with the fried chicken. This is a sweet, tangy, and spicy cold dish that comes with noodles, shredded cabbage in sauce, and steamed squid. Just mix and enjoy. It goes perfectly with the fried chicken since the tangy flavor will cut through the greasy taste from the chicken. 10/10 would definitely recommend for a couple or group to enjoy some amazing late night eats! FYI, use the bell on the side of your table for service.

I always have a good time at New Village. I love the set up, decor, and the ambiance of the restaurant. Here's my go to order every time I dine: Sea Snail and Squid Moochim (오뱅이) $29.99: love the noodle (jjol myun 쫄면) and squid combo. They have the sauce, squid, and noodles separate. You can mix it up to your preference. Raw Oyster Muchim (굴무침) $20.99: there's enough oyster "juice" to make it flavorful and smelly like oysters. If you're a fan of raw oysters, be sure to order it. Not sure how fresh the oysters are; it may be from one of those jarred containers. Korean Market Style Chicken (시장통닭) $19.99: brings me back to my childhood! A deep fried whole chicken and they break it up in front of you. You eat it with salt. Just 100! Other items I've tried but did not like: Rose Tteokbokki $18.99: I'm not a fan of rose tteokbokki so not sure why I ordered it. It was a fail. Stir fried tripe and leather intestines $23.99: meat was very soggy. I would've preferred it drier for better texture. Still one of my favorite Korean bars so it's a go for me! It gets packed at night so be sure to join Yelp waitlist ahead of time!

First things first, we had silkworm soup which the silkworm were chewy and bursted in your mouth along with the flavorful spices in the soup. Wash it down with some soju. I also loved the seafood pancakes, maybe I just am biased and like seafood pancakes in general for their crispy texture and this one had a fair amount of seafood. The market chicken was whole fried, came with salt and pepper, but I would've loved to see maybe some sort of soy garlic whole fried chicken, it's one of my favorite flavors. If I'm at a Korean restaurant, I'm trying their bulgogi as a baseline for the experience and this bulgogi was top tier. Sweet and tender and should absolutely be in the conversation for top 3 bulgogi I've had. A unique dish that I haven't tried yet anywhere else is the Sea Snail and Squid Muchim. I liked the chewy noodles and the sweet and spicy sauce binding the shellfish together. A dish they insisted we try is this Goporitang soup with flat noodles. It's a soup with a whole chicken, intestines, veggies, scallions and potatoes bathing in a very aromatic spicy broth. When I smelled the soup even my nose tingled, but the soup is hearty and I can see the appeal of this being their most popular dish. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this place, great Korean spot in the north suburbs, and it's open very late for that true pocha experience.

I was totally surprised that the food was pretty good, it's kind of a fusion Korean type of food, not your typical Korean dishes! We had the Sea Snail and Squid Muchim: Blanched sea snail dish, combined with cabbage, watercress, dropwort, scallions, Perilla leaves, and onions. All these fresh ingredients are harmoniously mixed with a sweet and spicy sauce, Served alongside squid and chewy noodles. This was my favorite dish, it was a little spicy but not too bad! Then we also had the Traditional Tteok Bok Ki A classic Korean street food favorite: chewy rice cakes and fish cakes simmered in a spicy and sweet sauce, served with boiled egg, seaweed wraps, and dumplings. This was a little spicy for the kids, so we decided to order a different one that's not spicy at all: Rosé Tteok Bok ki Chewy rice cakes, fishcakes, sausage, bacon, shrimp, and flat noodles, all simmered in a rich and creamy tomato sauce. Served with garlic bread. (The garlic bread was soft and chewy), great for dipping in the yummy sauce. All the dishes had lots of flavor and very tasty! You need to get there by 5 pm if you don't want to wait, otherwise expect a long wait! When we left around 8 pm on a Saturday night, there were people waiting outside!

Wowwww super impressed with this place near rosemont. Came after concert at Allstate arena and it was packed!! One of the only places open past midnight and the food was phenomenal. Shared whole fried chicken, rose tteokboki and truffle fried. Everything was amazing and the tteokboki was the best I've had. Super creamy, perfect level of spice, and rice cake cooked perfectly chewy. The waiter also took apart the whole chicken for us as well. I would definitely come again and try more of their great authentic menu. The army stew sounded so good. Everything is great to share as well.

My friends have been telling me about this place and I finally had a chance to try it out. The seafood pancake is so good here. I taste seafood in each bite of pancake and their bossam here is freaking amazing. They do a pretty good job cooking the intestines. You definitely get what you pay for and I think their prices are super reasonable here. I think the fried chicken here is a must order because they literally deliver the chicken as a whole to the table and rip it in front of you that way you're able to see how juicy it is and how easy it is for them to rip it apart. As you walk in, you really can see that it's a pub and I felt like I was in Korea after sitting down while ordering food. The people around you is enjoying their food while drinking as if this is like the happiest place on the planet. The people are super nice/friendly here and they do a really good job explaining to you the menu items if you're unsure about something the whole restaurant feels like a pub and they play K-pop music.

It's absolutely some of the best food anywhere around that I can think of! I STRONGLY recommend more patrons to visit this place!

I recently went to New Village Gastro Pub with friends, and we travel all the way from the city Food: 5/5 - The Kimchi Fried Rice, Seafood Pancake, and Tteok Bok Ki were nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish earned a well-deserved 5/5 for their flavors and preparation. Service: 4/5 - The staff was friendly and attentive, though a touch more promptness could enhance the overall experience. However, they are not quite active in refilling the water Ambiance: 5/5 - The traditional stall setting of the restaurant make the restaurant unique and stand out. Price: 5/5 - Remarkably, the prices were incredibly reasonable, offering great value for such high-quality dishes. A definite 5/5 for the affordability of a delightful culinary experience. Traditional Tteok Bok Ki

Great service! They have call buttons on the side of every table. Make sure to push it for service. The server will be at your table right away to take your orders. Multiple different servers stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. It's been an awhile since I've been able to go to a bar late at night after the kids are down. But so glad we stopped by. I HIGHLY recommend the crispy whole chicken and the squid salad muchim (spicy). We also got the beer and soju tower which comes with sweet potato fries. Get the beer TOWER! Definitely a fun adults night out with beer and great food! Other popular foods - spicy rice cakes with ramen. A must at all Korean bars! I'm still dreaming of the food and looking forward to our next night out here. One of the best Korean bars in the suburbs. Definitely recommend you stop by!

Korean bar food with plenty of parking spaces. Service is great. We got seated pretty fast. The chickens were cooked to perfection. Definitely the highlights. Prices were fair, not expensive. -complimentary bean sprout soup 5/5 -spicy stir fried tripe and large intestines 5/5 -popcorn chicken 5/5 -Korean market style chicken 5/5 -sea snail and squid muchim 5/5 -jokbal braised pig trotter -rice balls 5/5 -Korean steamed eggs and cheese 5/5

This place is literally my favorite! Came here for my birthday recently but have been here multiple times. All of the food is great! Definitely have to get at least one of the soups/stews with whatever you order. Service is great for introverts, because they have a button at each table that you can push to call over a staff member for whatever you need, and they always respond right away. It's amazing! The restaurant atmosphere is like if you're sitting on the streets of Korea, really awesome vibe! I've never been disappointed!

a great place to catchup with friends! Really enjoyed the korean pub setting with the tables and lights making it super casual yet clean. Service was good and we liked their call buttons the rose tteokbokki almost reminded me of buldak and i thought the octopus sausages were so cute. i loved the addition the flat glass noodles for the different texture. the army stew was a bit on the salty side overtime especially if you keep the heat on the portable gas stoce which we liked since it kept our food hot. the spicy bbq pork with cheese was super flavorful so i def recommend it being more enjoyable with the diy rice balls. got the peach high ball which was exactly a seltzer and the melona soju cocktail, both good!

Wow wow wow! The fried chicken! The squid dish! The kimchi fried rice! You can get that and more here. This place is happening! Huge screen plays K-pop, waiters are friendly and service is quick. The food is the star though. Go with a big group so you can try everything, then take leftovers home, the best!

Recommended by a local friend, gotta say they got the best spicy chicken feet stew in town. Beef brisket and stir bean sprout is also a must. The fried chicken is ok, it's served as a whole chicken and the server will hand torn it right in front of u, but the trunks might be pretty big. Overall 10/10 place!

Interesting Korean street food motif. Vaguely reminiscent of a place in one of LA's infamous K-town (Koreatown) pubs... that friends of my friend took us to for dinner after the airport pick up, on a recent visit. That place had dirt or peanut shells on the floor, barrels as seats and weird wooden drums if I recall. Food was okay but not memorable, and there were a lot of self-serve expectations. It was an experience Similarly, here, I definitely learned, and the lesson was reinforced that I am not self-sufficient and appreciate the nicer places. Battered, deep-fried whole chicken was good, the rest meh... not into macaroni and cheese on corn or basic beef in overly salty soy sauce with bean sprouts. Service was non-existent.

This is a new favorite place of mine. It's more of a Korean bar/pub style while playing K-pop music. Service was pretty good. There was even a buzzer if on the table if you need your server. We got the sea snail and squid muchim which was spicy and flavorful. The bossum, pork belly with lettuce wrap was amazing. The pork was slice thinly and had wonderful side dishes and sauces for our wrap. The army stew was another favorite. The cheese added to the spicy broth created this creamy texture. There were slice hot dogs, spam, pork belly and kimchi added to the stew which had this great salty, umami flavor. We ended the night in one of their karaoke room and had a blast singing.

My friend wanted to give NVGP a try and I have to say I was highly surprised. Upon entering I felt like I was in Korea. So, let me get into my review! Food: The quality was exactly like when I was in Korea. It brought back so many wonderful memories and made me think about all my time when I lived in Korea. The food at NVGP was amazing! Service: Our waitress was very attentive and being able to use the button to call our waitress was amazing to my friends kids. Atmosphere: The ambiance was very good. I have to say it was a little damp. Overall, I have to say check out NVGP for amazing food and the ability to feel like you are in Korea without being in Korea!

Good food, very authentic. Market style fried chicken and spicy chicken feet stew are the best in town

The service at this restaurant is terrible. Why? Because it doesn't exist! They stop making food at 11:45 despite being "Open" until 1AM. I come 15 miles and arrive at midnight on the dot, a full hour before closing, just to get turned away with no consideration for their mistake in terms of false advertising and lazy staff. I will never come to this restaurant again, and you shouldn't either. I can't trust people to make my food either day or night, who advertise falsely like this.

Ok, I have to set the mood... I travel frequently and ended up staying away from the "normal" Chicago ORD airport hotels. Weather was horrible and ORD had many cancellations. Being a devout Marriott customer I went to a Courtyard (Glenview/Northbrook), I don't know the area. As I perused Yelped this popped up. I recognized the menu to be Korean immediately! If you like Korean food, this place has the best! If you don't know what Korean food is and are interested in trying go here immediately. If you're at the hotel and want to have an authentic experience definitely go here. My point, this is the closest to modern Korean culture I've seen in a long time! it's K-pop on the televisions, excellent food, excellent beverages, excellent staff: at a very reasonable price. I will probably try to stay in the area again just to go to this restaurant. If you're in this hotel, and want to try something completely cool and different walk across the block you will enjoy yourself! Yes, they have an excellent beer selection. You can't go wrong with the food, and definitely enjoy the hospitality and warmth.

Still our fave go to Korean place. Our fave still is the market style chicken and spicy large intestine and tripe. Added to our favorite is the Army Stew w/ Ramen noodle whixh is not too spicy and ilove the combination of flavors. Another one is the Sea snail and squid muchim which has the right sweetness. The chicken feet taste good but is overly spicy. The ambian is cool and awesome. Like in a Korean Movies. We always go here early thats why we get parking but it's in strip mall so not too much parking. The service is always great. You have to reserve in advance in yelp so you dont have to wait.

only got the fried chicken and truffle oil French fries the chicken was excellent the fries were a bit overhyped but still very good. The staff was very very pleasant and the service was excellent. Next time I will get a little more adventurous But there will be a next time!

Great Vibes at this place. First of all, the food is fantastic. Big portions means you will leave full no matter what. Seriously best Korean food I've ever had. Servers were all very nice, loved the buttons you can press for service, every place should do this. Also love how late this place is open with the music videos on the wall. This place is a must go if you love Korean food.

This is out go to late night grub. Their chicken popcorn is seriously the best. I also love their Rose Tteokbokki not sure if I spelled that right. It has a bit of a spicy kick to it but so addicting! The beef brisket with bean sprout is also really good. This and popcorn chicken are the option if you are not into spicy. Army soup is also a must. It is spicy tho. Ill come back again and again. Happy eating!

Must try! One of the most popular Korean restaurants right now. Food, service, and ambience are all excellent! Standouts: Army soup Fried chicken Noddle platter with squid Pork Kimchee tofu

Great food! The set up is a bit confusing.... We were asked if we had been there before and said no. No further directions were given. The portions are sized for sharing and that would have been good to know. The plates and cups were hiding behind some things on our table. Had they not been hidden it may have made more sense. The service was great (aside from no explanation) and the food was amazing! Just be careful not to order too much like we did.

Great place for Korean food, whether you know what you are looking for or if you need help deciding. The food is excellent. We had the Army Stew & it is a treat. The service is very good, low-keyed but definitely there to help you. Go to this place.
