Been here at least ten times, and the food is consistently good. Start with the robata: 'chicken satay' (with rice pearls), 'beef short rib', and 'shishito'. Finish with 'maguro' and 'hamachi' nigiri.
beef short rib is to die for
It's not often you find a fun BYO with great sushi and get to listen to T.R.O.Y. at the same time. The food from the grill was good too. Definitely will be back.
Truffle fries, shrimp tacos, spicy beef short rib taco are to die for🍴
There's a depth to the menu here that will keep you coming back to try new things. So far my favorites are the Hawaiian Pork Taco and the Mexican Beef Short Rib Taco.
The Burger w Merkts Cheese is awesome. Fried Talapia Fish Tacos are really, really good also
Good date night place. Have the cheese platter and the chocolate dessert
Best French in the city so far
Madame Chiang's Szechuan Short Ribs Noodle Soup (Slowly braised succulent beef short ribs combined with vine-ripened tomatoes in a rich, savory broth)
Trio of seafood (shrimp, scallop, crab) steamed dumplings
Try the calamari
갈비육개장 SPICY BEEF SHORT RIB SOUP

Renovation looks good. Don't miss the octopus, the fluke and the chicken is surprisingly delicious.

Beef short ribs were amazing and the corn bread. Very authentic place in Chicago, many true locals & clients that'd been coming here for years. Cafeteria style, cheap & huge portions. Service is great
Their omelets are the best in town. Also the steak and eggs is a great deal.
There are parking meters all around-good luck finding one at the right time, but if you park in the lot behind & across the street from the liquor store, Valois will validate - up to an hour - free!
The braised beef short rib dish was pretty good, just too salty. The menu is a little deceiving. The prices for pasta dishes are for a small plate, not an entree. The ambiance is nice.
Everyone is right about the gnocchi. Even if you don't like gnocchi, GET THE GNOCCHI. Also our service was fantastic. It is a slow-paced place - but in my view, this is a plus...relax and enjoy.
The delicate gnocchi with crisp sage and brown butter sauce are knockout, as are the lusty horseradish-revved short ribs.
Best spa in Chicago. Friendly people. Great service.
Always relaxing!
Getting a very needed facial with Tara!
Try the pear flatbread pizza thing on the specials menu. Its not always on there but it is delicious!
Mark is a great chef, no dobut at all
Food was ok, service terrible. Be prepared to hear your neighbors conversation because you are literally 6 inches away from them.
Pork belly, beef short rib, pork adobo flake fried rice
The lunch discount special applies to the whole table if you ask. 20% off a party of five is nice. The food is great.
Pad Thai is excellent !
The Hanoi cocktail is amazing! The wine list looks great and super affordable. Didn't have diner this visit, but the menu descriptions sound delicious. Definitely returning very soon.
The food is very good, the service is to be desired...😠
Great back patio!!!!
highly recommend the Roasted Eggplant to start, and the Grilled Beef Tenderloin for an entrée
Order a bottle of Amarone with dinner
I love the pasta and the lemoncello!
Love the charcoal grill Kalbi and the pork belly....yum!
What is the purpose of going here to grill your own foods?
At Woo Chon, the pajeon (pancake), tofu soups and bibimbap are all worthy dishes to complement the carnivorous feast of meat that one inevitably orders. Read more.
The sesame tuna was excellent. Pastas were fresh and home made. Great little neighborhood trattoria.
This neighborhood trattoria is known for its charming Italian staff and authentic Italian food. Be sure to try one of the nightly specials; they are always delicious. - Inspector
Very large specials menu highlighting the freshness of the food. All the pastas are delicious! Very lively and warm environment.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
