Kimchi Guys - Laclede's Landing

My husband and I decided to take a weekend getaway trip to St Louis from Pittsburgh!!! What a fantastic trip!!! Everyone was so welcoming ! The food was beyond amazing. We stopped at kimshee guys for the kimshee nachos!!! They were out of this world!!! They are an absolute must if you’re in town!!! 10 stars, hands down! Thank you for the great trip, St Louis!!

The food was great! I had wings and the monster kimchi fried rice bowl. The "monster" bowl was not as big as I expected, but the flavor was great. The spicy wings definitely have kick so get some water…

JESUS CHRIST. See photo of how the 6-piece wing combo comes out. Sauce was on the side, all drums, some were small, and no sesame seeds or onion toppings like in the restaurants photos. Small side of spicy pickles was 3…pickle…slices… for $3. I’m getting a refund from my cc company. Avoid this place.

I got the teokbokki, kimchi, and dumplings- all delicious. This was just what I needed for a chilly winter day. I ordered take out and the food was ready within 7 or so minutes. Highly recommend!

If you've never had Korean-Mexican fusion you have to try it. We were at the Edwardsville location in March. The food was very good. The place was clean. The staff was friendly but, not enthusiastic. They have good Korean recipes and the people putting it all together do fine work. If/when I'm in St Louis I would go here for lunch.

Kimchi Guys has a fun menu that ranges from Korean Fried Chicken wings to sandwiches, a few Korean classics, and even a Korean/Mexican fusion section to their menu. Small but bustling restaurant with seating inside, offering a self-ordering experience (either at the kiosk or via your phone and a QR code at the table). I ordered the 6 wing combo (comes with waffle fries, white radish kimchi and a drink). You can choose which sauce you’d like on your wings, this being my first time and no staff immediately available to talk to, I opted for 1/2 Spicy Original and 1/2 Garlic Soy. I ended up liking the Garlic Soy more. The wings were made fresh to order, still piping hot when my order got called upon. The wings were tender, just about falling off the bone. Their waffle fries were crispy and salty, better than Chik-fil-A in my opinion. And I appreciated the small serving of the white radish. Should also note that there is a small vegan section to the menu and plant-based protein as an option. I enjoyed my meal and would definitely go back to try more of their menu. The reason I’m giving them 4 stars instead of 5 are for the following reasons: For my taste, I would have liked the wings a tad saltier, and maybe that comes down to the sauces I ordered. The restaurant was HOT, I’m not sure they have AC and the place was so hot that it may have been better to have done take out. Service was not readily available because staff are doing their jobs processing orders (they get busy), and it was tough to find someone readily available for questions. Price point. 6 wings, a drink, small serving of waffle fries and a small serving of kimchi radish for $18 is a little steep (that’s before tax). I’d go back though, and that’s what really matters.

We drove three hours to eat here because every previous visit.. again and again had been that good. We literally woke up and said, "Let’s go get Korean tacos from Kimchi Guys." That’s how much we loved this place. Unfortunately, this visit was by far the worst experience we’ve ever had. The customer service was terrible(and they obliviously neglected the cleaning duties, gross), the food quality was disappointing, and we were told about a "menu change" after we had already ordered. To make matters worse, this all happened after we placed an additional $190 order and left a large cash tip. This was beyond frustrating, it was genuinely heartbreaking. We have bragged about this place endlessly, brought people here, and this time we were planning to share tacos with everyone. Instead, it turned into an embarrassing and deeply disappointing experience. I never leave reviews like this, but this one hurt. 0/10. Sadly, we won’t be coming back.
