SoJu BBQ

"Korean barbecue joint SoJu in West Loop has both halal beef and chicken: check out the beef bulgogi and juicy Korean fried chicken. SoJu BBQ is an ideal place to take a large group so you can enjoy the full Korean barbecue grilling experience." - Nylah Iqbal Muhammad

"Soju BBQ has always emphasized proteins sourced from Creekstone Farms (which also means they’re halal). Find huge marinated chops and more inside the comfy sit-down restaurant near the United Center. There are also quality wings and more." - Ashok Selvam

"Perfectly marinated meat, rice cake skewers covered in sweet and spicy gochujang, and tasty banchan are the reasons we come to Soju. This casual West Loop spot is open all day, and has a BBQ menu that includes all the hits: short rib, bulgogi, kalbi, fire chicken, pork belly, and brisket. This spot is also only a few blocks from the United Center, and one of the only nearby options that actually has great food. It’s also a fun place. They have an energetic hip-hop playlist and a full bar with beer and soju." - adrian kane, john ringor

"SoJu BBQ is a casual Korean spot serving up unique Asian barbecue and more. Sometimes the line gets chaotic and it doesn’t move as quickly as it should, but carnivores are treated to hulking portions of short rib and other Korean classics tweaked to fit modern tastes." - Ashok Selvam

"SoJu BBQ is a carnivore’s dream, with the owner sticking behind his mission to use high-caliber cuts of meat in Korean food. Find brisket, bulgogi, and a few different cuts of short ribs. Available for pickup and delivery. The meat’s also halal." - Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman
