    Chicago’s first Korean Steak Omakase experience @bonyeon.chicago recently launched their new series called Modu Monday - which features 6 courses that embrace a twist on Korean flavors & Korean comfort food all in a fine dining setting My friend @claire__yvonne and I both experienced Bon Yeon together for the first time last week & it blew us away! My favorite part of the whole experience… obviously besides the food - was the chefs thoughtfully explaining each dish, and being involved in the entire experience from start to finish. Here’s everything we had: •cheesy corn croquette on a honeycomb short rib •quail karaage served with shishito peppers •budae jigae with braised short rib, pork sausage, & noodles from @akahoshiramen •tteokgalbi slider brushed with a bone marrow miso butter •Korean bbq served with hanger steak, pork belly, & skirt steak •Kumquat bingsu served with a green tea salt creama #DMK #chicago #chicagorestaurants #omakase #steakomakase #michelinguide #koreanfood

    I have no idea why this isn’t a Michelin Star restaurant, great food and nice ambience.

    dinner was our best of restaurant week. We would come to Bonyeon more often if they had a omakase select menu all year. Thanks so much

    I feel like the dishes lacked depth and flavor, the service was great though. I feel like for the price I didn’t get the value I was looking for.

    Bonyeon was an absolutely amazing experience! I had a great time and I'm so happy I was able to try their Omakase Select menu for Chicago Restaurant Week. The food was very flavorful, and ambience was classy, and the service was 10/10! I would love to come back one day to try the full courses!

    Absolutely amazing experience. I took my dad for his birthday and he said it might be the best meal he has ever had and he had the benefit of eating at many high end restaurants throughout his career. Service was amazing and we loved the different preparations of wagyu. Overall incredible experience.
