Seoul Bites

Soul Bites is hands down one of the best Mexican–Korean fusion spots in Chicago. The food is next-level—bold flavors, perfectly balanced, and honestly some of the best taste I’ve had in the city. The service was outstanding from start to finish. The staff was warm, humble, and genuinely kind, making the whole experience feel welcoming and effortless. Customer service here is clearly a priority, and it shows. Overall, Soul Bite sets the bar high in both quality and hospitality. Easily one of the best restaurants in the area. I’d confidently recommend it to all my family and friends. Big kudos to the entire team—keep doing what you’re doing. 🔥🌮🇰🇷

I’ve been wanting to try this place and I’m glad I got to check it out. The banchans were really good and fresh. I tried two of their appetizers and loved them as well - the Korroke was hot and crispy and the vegetable dumplings were yummy as well. The Kalbi was tender and had a lot of flavor to it as well. I’m glad I tried it out and am excited to try more things in the future. Personally I didn’t like the milk tea - it was too sweet with no visible option to change the sweetness level and it just didn’t taste good to me. There’s lots of searing options and the restaurant is set up kinda like a self serve place. There’s things available like sauce, extra plates/utensils for people to use and they will all bring you your food like a traditional sit down restaurant does.

We ordered the Korean fried rice, Korean chicken wings and dolsot bibimbap - every item was delicious and arrived at our table in about ten minutes. The wings were piping hot, flavorful and crunchy. The bibimbap arrived sizzling in a stone bowl - the rice stayed warm the whole time. And the beef in the fried rice had unique Korean spices. The atmosphere was also serene. Serving size is huge - two people can share one dish. A large service charge added to bill.

We had been looking for halal Korean food for a long time. It’s very hard to find in our city, so we drove 40 minutes to come here because it’s fully halal and our friends recommended it. They said the japchae is very good and similar to our traditional glass noodle salad. They have a digital menu, so you can order by yourself. But we asked the waiter to take our order because we wanted one dish without salad. Here’s what we ordered: Japchae – 10/10 Very delicious, especially when it’s warm. It became our favorite. I would definitely come back just for this dish. Chicken Katsu – 8/10 Crispy and thin chicken with white steamed rice. Very tasty. Spicy Beef Soup – 10/10 The broth was clear and flavorful. No eggs and no tofu, which I liked. Very good. Fried wings in honey & pineapple sauc

I don’t usually leave reviews unless the food is really good and wow, the food here is OVERWHELMINGLY good. I normally eat alone and just scroll on my phone, but when I’m here, I seriously enjoy every bite. I don’t even touch my phone the whole meal. The Korean fried wings are crazy good. Super crispy on the outside with flavorful sauce, but the inside is what gets me. The meat inside is insanely flavorful and seasoned so well. And the kimchi stews? Fire. A little spicy, but totally doable. Will probably be coming back here forever. Definitely one of the best Korean spots I’ve been to.
