I have been here many times and the food is always spot on and consistent! Quality is amazing for its price! The spicy dishes are truly spicy which I appreciate. I love their bulgolgi, bibimbap, kalbi, and fried chicken. Their dishes are savory, sweet, and addicting. If you like seafood, you will like their stone pot dish chu gu mi dol sut bibimbap. I will definitely come back to try other dishes. Ambience and service are great! It’s a good sit down restaurant for a relaxing or romantic dinner with a couple of cocktails!

This place was such a good find!! Everything tasted great and came out fairly quickly. Cocktails were interesting. Service was lacking a bit though.. we only saw our server when putting in our order. Not many table touches at all. We would’ve ordered another round of drinks and possibly another roll if we were checked on.

After leaving California many years ago, I really missed Korean Food. Jin Jun has been my go-to place for Korean since a friend of mine discovered it several years ago. Staff is super friendly and food comes out timely. Even as a vegetarian, I find the food wonderful. I have some friends with food allergies and they've always been super happy here!

I'll be honest, I live right around the corner from this place and often forget it is there until I go in and remember why I love it so much! Do not let yourself leave without trying the scallion pancake, it's my favorite starter! My first time here I made the mistake of having a dish so spicy hot that I could see through time for a week afterwards! But Everytime I've been back since, I've loved the meals! Great tasty, straightforward dishes with complex flavors that somehow don't overwhelm and that aren't too salty or strong. The drink menu is fairly simple, and they are light on deserts, but the staff is always friendly and prompt. The atmosphere is a bit like dining at the friend of a friend's house, nothing too fancy and just the basics.

I had dinner with friend here while visiting Chicago. I had been wanting to try kimbap for so long and I was so glad I finally got to. Our waiter TK was great; offered recommendation. All of the food was heavenly: the kimbap, fried mandoo, chap chae; even the banchan was some of the best I have ever had. There was another gentleman behind the bar (forgive me, I forgot his name) who was very nice! I hope to visit again next time I am in Chicago. Thank you for a VERY enjoyable meal!

I like the vibe in here. It was welcoming and fun, yet not too tightened up like a bar feeling where you can lay back a little and enjoy the evening. As I don’t drink, I ordered just my favorite Korean dish that always make me happy, bibimbub with raw squid that served in a hot bowl and a scallion pancake, I liked them both. And my friend ordered soup with soju and she said she enjoyed it too… We will come back!

Overall, our experience was very mid. The staff was friendly but it took them 15 mins just to get water on our table. We ordered bibimbop, wings, rice cakes, and spare ribs. The food basically all came at once which was overwhelming, and we weren’t blown away by the meal. The wings were actually drumsticks which was yummy but way too much food, the rice cakes were good, but the bibimbop was a miss.

Every time I come here, I feel restored and satiated! My father grew up in Korea and introduced me to Korean food as a child, so coming here is always a treat. The staff is always kind and helpful and the food is delightful and delicious. Our Bim Bi Bop was served after a Miso soup and small bites of fermented radish, broccoli, potato salad, with sides of gochujang and Kim chi. This restaurant is very popular, so be sure to make a reservation or walk in off peak hours. If you are looking for an authentic, classy Korean meal, I would highly recommend Jin Jui!

Really wanted to like this place but was quite disappointed in the food. The kimchi pajun was crispy but had no flavor other that “deep fried”, couldn’t even sense there was kimchi in it. The tteok was chewy but the sauce also lacked flavor. The stone bowl bibimbap wasn’t salted and the sauce added nothing to it; it tasted like bland white rice with unseasoned vegetables. These all felt like traditional Korean dishes, but the depth of flavor usually found in Korean cooking was really lacking. Service was good at least and the atmosphere was nice. (Traducido por Google) Tenía muchas ganas de que me gustara este lugar, pero estaba bastante decepcionado con la comida. El kimchi pajun estaba crujiente pero no tenía otro sabor que "frito", ni siquiera podía sentir que había kimchi en él. El tteok estaba masticable pero la salsa también carecía de sabor. El bibimbap del tazón de piedra no estaba salado y la salsa no le agregaba nada; sabía a arroz blanco suave con vegetales sin condimentar. Todos estos se sentían como platos coreanos tradicionales, pero realmente faltaba la profundidad de sabor que generalmente se encuentra en la cocina coreana. El servicio era bueno al menos y el ambiente era agradable.

ordered take-out yesterday at 5pm as a treat from all the hard work that I've been doing for this past month so I ordered a beef bibimbap but when I opened it, it was the saddest bowl i've seen. First, they gave me scraps of beef which only had like 5 small scraps of beef. it looked like they chopped it as small as they could because they were running out or something. And my miso soup was 100% WITHOUT A DOUBT--OLD! there is absolutely no way that miso was not a day old (and it being a day old is probably me being generous bc it tasted like it was left out and they just microwaved it). So $15 and given old food with very few scraps of beef was not worth it. My friend and I have dined here before and it was great, but Jin Ju probably just went downhill. But that just gives me an opportunity and reason to explore a better quality Korean restaurant. (Traducido por Google) Pedí comida para llevar ayer a las 5 p. m. como regalo de todo el trabajo duro que he estado haciendo durante el último mes, así que pedí un bibimbap de res, pero cuando lo abrí, era el plato más triste que había visto. Primero, me dieron trozos de carne de res que solo tenían como 5 trozos pequeños de carne de res. parecía que lo cortaron lo más pequeño que pudieron porque se estaban acabando o algo así. Y mi sopa de miso estaba 100% SIN DUDA, ¡VIEJA! no hay absolutamente ninguna forma de que el miso no tenga un día (y si tiene un día, probablemente sea porque soy generoso porque sabía que lo habían dejado afuera y simplemente lo calentaron en el microondas). Entonces, $ 15 y comida vieja con muy pocos restos de carne no valió la pena. Mi amigo y yo cenamos aquí antes y fue genial, pero Jin Ju probablemente se fue cuesta abajo. Pero eso me da la oportunidad y la razón para explorar un restaurante coreano de mejor calidad.

The bi bim bap comes out completely unseasoned and bland, so I was unimpressed with my order. Other dishes at the restaurant looked considerably better.

This place has been here for a very long time. I remember it was a big deal when it first opened - Chicago tends to get excited by new cuisines that try to appeal to a Midwestern pallet. Surprisingly, though, even after 20 years Jin Ju does not pander. I had the most delicious kimchi tofu bowl - I could have been in Los Angeles or Seoul it was so good. If you ask, they will even make the Kim Bap without the crab stick to make it gluten free, which of course I ordered and loved. (Traducido por Google) Este lugar ha estado aquí por mucho tiempo. Recuerdo que fue un gran problema cuando abrió por primera vez: Chicago tiende a emocionarse con las nuevas cocinas que intentan atraer a una paleta del Medio Oeste.

Si preguntas, incluso harán el Kim Bap sin el palito de cangrejo para que no contenga gluten, lo cual, por supuesto, pedí y me encantó.

This place is okay if you only had rudimentary introduction to Korean food and looking for ambience. It feels more like a place to go on date and have Korean rather than the type you go there because food is just that great. The food wasn't spicy at all even when it was in the description. Heavy on alcohol options and little for non drinkers, and tea selection is abysmal. I like the concept of hip restaurant that serves Korean food. I just wish the food was better, better beverage options for non drinkers, and more banchan.

JIn Ju always delivers for delicious food at fair prices. If you like a spicy dish, I highly recommend the Dak Bulgogi. The seasonings and sauces are excellent. Perhaps also try a refreshing Pear Martini from the bar menu? (Traducido por Google) JIn Ju siempre ofrece comida deliciosa a precios justos.

Thankyou for providing a wonderful experience sampling your menu! I ordered a meal with my Chase Sapphire points and sometimes I’ve found that can be tricky. It was for my husband’s birthday and I invited my in laws. The food was delicious! Thankyou so much! While I utilized the pickup service, the customer service was excellent. I will definitely recommend! (Traducido por Google) ¡Gracias por brindarnos una experiencia maravillosa probando su menú! Pedí una comida con mis puntos Chase Sapphire y, a veces, descubrí que puede ser complicado. Era para el cumpleaños de mi esposo e invité a mis suegros. ¡La comida era deliciosa! ¡Muchas gracias! Si bien utilicé el servicio de recogida, el servicio al cliente fue excelente. ¡Definitivamente lo recomendaré!

Jin Ju has had consistently tasty Bibimbap for years now, and an assortment of banchan that includes one of the most satisfying broccoli preparations I’ve ever encountered: delightfully crunchy but not raw with a sesame savoriness.

I'm not a huge reviewer, but this place definitely warrants one. A nice, modern space with plenty of seating, but yet enough space where you're not sitting on top of other patrons and hearing each other's conversations. We relied pretty heavily on our server's recommendations and they did not disappoint in the least bit - we had the steamed kimchi dumplings, short ribs, and dak bulgogi. All were amazing and arrived in staggered sequence but quickly enough that we weren't waiting long. Service was great, prices were very reasonable, and food was delicious. Looking forward to returning to try some other items on the menu! (Traducido por Google) No soy un gran crítico, pero este lugar definitivamente merece uno. Un espacio agradable y moderno con muchos asientos, pero suficiente espacio donde no estás sentado encima de otros clientes y escuchando las conversaciones de los demás. Confiamos bastante en las recomendaciones de nuestro servidor y no decepcionaron en lo más mínimo: teníamos las albóndigas de kimchi al vapor, las costillas cortas y el bulgogi dak. Todos fueron increíbles y llegaron en secuencia escalonada pero lo suficientemente rápido como para que no tuviéramos que esperar mucho. El servicio fue excelente, los precios eran muy razonables y la comida era deliciosa. ¡Estoy deseando volver para probar otros elementos del menú!

I’ve been here multiple times, but I’ve only gotten the Dock Bulgogi because it’s so fantastic! The potatoes are to die for! It’s hard for me to order anything else. Great food and cocktails!

Their dishes are authentic and delicious (I grew up in Korea) - even their banchan (side dishes) were perfect. Jin Ju is a little more expensive than other local Korean restaurants with similarly traditional food, but the atmosphere is completely different. More modern and upscale with a bar, while still being casual. (Traducido por Google) Sus platos son auténticos y deliciosos (crecí en Corea), incluso sus banchan (guarniciones) eran perfectos.

Unfortunately this place did not meet my expectations. I felt the pajun (scallion pancake) and mandoo (dumplings) were excellent, especially for the price. However, the brussel sprouts in the sam gyap sal were not nearly cooked enough - they needed a good char. Similarly, the texture of the bulgogi beef was not nearly chewy enough, and the meat was not well marinated. I did enjoy the accompaniments, but I've honestly made better bulgogi beef at home. Though there were certainly some winners on the menu, I likely will not return. (Traducido por Google) Lamentablemente este lugar no cumplió con mis expectativas. Sentí que el pajun (panqueque de cebollín) y el mandoo (albóndigas) eran excelentes, especialmente por el precio. Sin embargo, las coles de Bruselas en el sam gyap sal no estaban lo suficientemente cocinadas, necesitaban un buen carbón. Del mismo modo, la textura de la carne de res bulgogi no era lo suficientemente masticable y la carne no estaba bien marinada. Disfruté los acompañamientos, pero honestamente he hecho mejor carne de res bulgogi en casa. Aunque ciertamente hubo algunos ganadores en el menú, es probable que no regrese.

Not knowing what to expect Jin Ju surely didn't disappoint. Service was professional, friendly and quick. The Sojutini was fresh and a nice touch to this contemporary Korean restaurant. Bibimbap remained hot the entire meal. The seafood was cooked perfect and was full of flavor. Recommend the bibimbap or bulgogi bowl. Overall a fantastic experience.

Visited during covid times and felt very comfortable with the large open windows and spread-out seating. Service and drinks were excellent. Pork spare ribs, duk boki, and chap chae were very good. We were not impressed by the kimchee chigae - it tasted like a bland tomato based broth without any yuksu or spices. Hope they can improve that one!

Jin Ju is most certainly the best find we’ve had in three years. It’s so good, we’ve been there twice in the last two weeks. The food is delicious, be sure to order numerous appetizers to experience the variety. The wings, scallion pancake with and without kimchi, the gnocchi (they call them something else, the big plate ribeye steak is incredible. The service was great, had the same server both times, he is a hoot, not to mention very attentive and helpful. We had the opportunity to meet the owner last evening and she just makes the experience even better. Five Stars isn’t enough to tell of our experience. (Traducido por Google) Jin Ju es sin duda el mejor hallazgo que hemos tenido en tres años. Es tan bueno, hemos estado allí dos veces en las últimas dos semanas. La comida es deliciosa, asegúrese de pedir numerosos aperitivos para experimentar la variedad. Las alitas, el panqueque de cebolleta con y sin kimchi, los ñoquis (los llaman de otra manera, el chuletón de plato grande es increíble. El servicio fue excelente, tenía el mismo servidor en ambas ocasiones, es un puntazo, sin mencionar que es muy atento y útil. Tuvimos la oportunidad de conocer al dueño anoche y ella simplemente hace que la experiencia sea aún mejor. Cinco estrellas no es suficiente para contar nuestra experiencia.

Traveled 3 hours from Indianapolis to pick up some of this food! Worth the drive. Restaurant had a great social distancing set up inside for takeout. A bit pricey, but for someone who has limited Korean options, I was happy to let it slide and support this business. Personal favorite was Japchae. Soft chewy noodles, wonderful umami flavor. Kimbap was fresh and had a comforting taste, a familiar one. Sides of rice were all perfectly cooked. Kimchi is a bit spicy but effing delicious. Kimchi pancakes were a bit oily and had a certain bitter taste at the end (I'm guessing from the oil). It reheated a lot better the next day when I threw ittit with the rest of my leftovers in a fried rice. Can't wait to go back once the pandemic is over. Good luck! (Traducido por Google) ¡Viajamos 3 horas desde Indianápolis para recoger algo de esta comida! Vale la pena conducir. El restaurante tenía un gran distanciamiento social establecido en el interior para llevar. Un poco caro, pero para alguien que tiene opciones limitadas de coreano, estaba feliz de dejarlo pasar y apoyar este negocio. El favorito personal era Japchae. Fideos masticables suaves, maravilloso sabor umami. Kimbap era fresco y tenía un sabor reconfortante, familiar. Los lados del arroz estaban perfectamente cocinados. El kimchi es un poco picante pero delicioso. Las tortitas de kimchi estaban un poco aceitosas y tenían un cierto sabor amargo al final (supongo que por el aceite). Se recalentó mucho mejor al día siguiente cuando lo eché con el resto de mis sobras en un arroz frito. No puedo esperar para volver una vez que termine la pandemia. ¡Buena suerte!

So much yes! I haven't had Korean food in a long time. I ordered delivery tonight and the food was delicious! I had the kimchi pancakes, spicy rice cakes, and tofu soup. The portions were extra generous and banchan (small side dishes) were included. I don't remember the last time I had such amazing food delivered. My only regret is not discovering Jin Ju earlier! (Traducido por Google) ¡Tanto que sí! No he tenido comida coreana en mucho tiempo. Pedí la entrega esta noche y la comida estaba deliciosa! Tuve los panqueques de kimchi, pasteles de arroz picantes y sopa de tofu. Las raciones eran muy generosas y se incluyeron banchan (pequeñas guarniciones). No recuerdo la última vez que me entregaron una comida tan increíble. ¡Lo único que lamento es no haber descubierto a Jin Ju antes!
