Seoul Mama

Absolutely 1000% must check this place out if you find yourself in the DT Park Ridge area. Been on the hunt for a quick to-go spot for authentic Korean and this one is in a league of its own amongst not many competitors! I'm astounded at the quality and freshness as well as the overall affordability!Their spicy tteokbokki was on 10, (option of vegan rice cakes) delicious veggie (or pork) dumplings and their seaweed rolls were crunchy and not overly powered with a strong fish smell. Delectable!All in all, this is my new favorite choice. You can also eat in there but is relatively small seating. Love reading the newspaper where the owner talked about her dreams coming to life.A must try!

Super clean, friendly, family-owned establishment serving phenomenal food. The rice bowls are great but more recently I'm hooked on their stir-fried ramen bowls. Always fresh, always delicious!

Seoul Mama in Park Ridge is a must-visit! Their customizable rice or noodle bowls with a variety of protein options and toppings are a hit. The side dishes like dumplings, spicy rice cakes, popcorn chicken, and crispy seaweed rolls are equally delightful. The staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. Plus, it's affordable, centrally located, and offers fast service. Don't miss out on this flavorful experience!

Excellent food. Bland or spicy it's your call. Very small so take it home. Hours vary.

Good, authentic and tasty Korean fast food! The mama cook is the real deal. The soon du boo is my favorite.

Build your own bowl meal was delicious. Enjoyed the selection and it was very healthy.Extremely attentive and polite customer service.

I brought 2 of my employees there for a lunch. I had the bulgogi bipimbop. The sauce was perfect. Whole thing was so good! The highlight was the in-house picked radishes. I wish I had taken a photo. Next time.

I've walked by Seoul Mama dozens of times but never ventured in, until today and I'm glad I did! It's similar to BIBIBOP (only better)! I got a rice bowl with chicken, toppings and bulgogi sauce. It was fresh, tasty and quick!This Mother-Daughter restaurant is worth a try!

Really good food! Don't let this one pass you by. Had a beef bowl with purple rice and it was delicious. Looking forward to coming back for more.

Had a short ribs with purple rice. It was very delicious. There are four different sauces(sweet and spicy, seoul mama soy sauce, korean barbecue and spicy mayo) for the bowl. Strongly recommended. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
