- JJustineGoldChicago / Illinois •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoThe place was a little hard to find because google took us to the back entrance. But overall a very positive experience. Great quality meat, very tender and fresh. The service was also very good. Amy was our server and she cooked the meats perfectly. Not many KBBQ places cook the meats for you so this one is special. The restaurant is very clean, beautiful, and has a nice atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. Would come back again!More infoWu's Korean BBQ - Streeterville$$$$• Korean• Streeterville•4.6
