Fans of this Lincoln Square Korean BBQ joint that is almost open 24/7 do not come for the service. They come for the endless supply of cook-your-own food and experience. Bring a group of friends along, expect to take off your shoes before sitting at the nearly floor-level table and order raw meat for you to grill over fire. Regulars know they can expect a feast with dozens of sides like potatoes, kim chi, seaweed and lotus root that will be scattered around the table for everyone to enjoy. For a group of four or more people, order two sets of raw meat sets and with the sides, you'll have plenty for everyone to enjoy.

- Asian: "Wear clothes that you won't mind smelling like BBQ after you leave."
- Best for Asian Because: Best spread of panchan in town (small dishes of food served along with cooked rice with your meal).
