This is hands down the best all you can eat Chinese barbecue restaurant in the Chicago area. The meat is fresh, well marinated, and grilled to perfection. What really impressed me was the outstanding service. Compared to several other places I’ve tried, the staff here are more attentive, polite, and quick to help with anything. The atmosphere is clean and energetic, making it perfect for gatherings. If you love barbecue and want real value for your money, this is the place to go. Strongly recommended for all meat lovers.

Absolutely amazing service from Leo! I don’t usually leave reviews, but Leo 100% deserves the recognition. From the moment we were seated at the Korean BBQ table, Leo made the entire experience unforgettable. He was incredibly attentive without ever being overbearing — always checking in at just the right times, keeping everything running smoothly, and making sure our grill was perfect throughout the meal. He had a great sense of humor, explained the menu clearly, and gave us excellent recommendations. Every little detail, from refilling sides to swapping the grill plate before we even had to ask — Leo was on it. You can tell he really cares about giving guests a great time. If you get the chance to dine here, ask for Leo. He turned a great meal into an outstanding one with his personality, professionalism, and top-tier service. We’ll definitely be back! !

We had the all you can eat menu. The quality of the meat was great. The sides were delicious and my daughter ate for free because it was her birthday. They all came out to sign for her even the robot

I recently dined at Jiang Niu Korean Barbecue, and I must say, it was an incredible experience! The taste of the meat was simply outstanding—every bite was packed with flavor. I especially appreciated the free dishes available, and it's wonderful that they offer something special for birthdays! One of the highlights of my visit was the adorable robot that serves the food. It added a fun and unique touch to the dining experience! The eat-all-you-can concept is fantastic; you can truly indulge in whatever you desire until you're completely full. Overall, Jiang Niu is a must-visit for barbecue lovers. The combination of delicious food, great service, and a lively atmosphere makes it a perfect spot for celebrations or just a casual meal. I can’t wait to go back!

We had a really good time at the restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was great. Our server Sally was so sweet, considerate, and made sure all of our needs were met. She always responds right away with great attitude. It was very impressive. We'll definitely come again. Ps. I might not be asian but the food was great- (the American BF)

From the moment I walked in, I was hooked by the lively atmosphere. The welcoming vibe, great music, and energetic ambiance set the perfect tone for an amazing dining experience. The food was absolutely incredible—every cut of meat was fresh, high-quality, and seasoned to perfection. Grilling it right at the table made the meal even more fun, and the appetizer bar was a fantastic bonus. Every bite was packed with flavor! What really made the experience unforgettable, though, was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, always making sure our grill was fresh and that we had everything we needed. Even with a full house, they never made us feel rushed. If you’re looking for top-tier Korean BBQ, this is the spot. Amazing food, great vibes, and outstanding service—I can’t wait to come back!

I love this bbq place a lot! My favorite one in Chicago area. The food is fresh and tasty, and the newly added snack bar is a big plus! I miss that fried ramen and pumpkin congee! Big shoutout to our server Sally and the host Chloe, they are very nice, friendly and helpful. We have been walked through some new items from all you can eat menu, and tried them, oh for real, they don’t play! I definitely will go back. Thanks again for the good time.
