Notable Picks
#1
Jin Ju
8.2
A sleek Andersonville Korean dining room that balances comfort classics with a cocktail-friendly, modern-night-out feel. The kitchen lands best when you build a shared-table order around one sizzling protein, one stew, and one noodle/rice anchor, then stop before it turns into chaos.
Must-Try Dishes:
Galbi jjim, Kimchi jjigae, Mandu
What makes it special: Cocktail-ready Korean classics in a polished Andersonville room.

A small Uptown counter-style Korean spot that’s built for quick, satisfying bowls and takeout more than a long sit-down meal. The move is to pick one hearty main (bibimbap or a stew), add one crunchy side, and lean on the banchan to round out the bite-to-bite.
Must-Try Dishes:
Bibimbap, Cheese dakgalbi, Japchae
What makes it special: Fast, casual Korean comfort bowls with strong takeout rhythm.
