BIBIBOP Asian Grill

No wait in line at around 4:30 pm on a Sunday. Food was excellent and staff was nice.

Service was fast and friendly. Restaurant was very clean. Got a purple rice steak bowl at 7:30pm on a Wednesday. The portion sizes were incredibly small and food tasted not fresh. The sauces were not very good either and tasted to similar to cheap salad dressing.

We placed an online order for pickup at the Vernon Hills store on November 8, 2025. Upon arrival, we retrieved a bag labeled with our name and order number. Unfortunately, upon returning home and opening the containers, we discovered that the order was entirely incorrect and contained someone else's food. Despite the bag and tag bearing our receipt, the contents were clearly not ours. We promptly returned the food to the Vernon Hills location, where the manager, Edgal, displayed a shocking lack of concern. He made no effort to correct the order and merely offered a refund with in 48 hours, stating that he needed to consult with his manager first. I insisted on receiving something in writing confirming the refund. He took the food back and provided me with his name and the store number, promising to issue a refund after discussing it with his manager. However, it has now been five days, and we have yet to receive any refund. As a result, we are now forced to contest the charge with our credit card company. This experience has been extremely frustrating and reflects poorly on the store's service and management. We will not be returning.

LOVED! I got a small bowl with sweet potato noodles, broccoli, bean sprouts, cabbage, carrots, cucumber, avocado, kimchi, chicken, and yumyum sauce it was amazing!! good portions, literally planning the next time I can go.

First time here. Basically an Asian version of Chipotle. You choose your base (rice, noodles or greens) and then protein, veggies and sauce. I had the sweet potato noodles with organic tofu, veggies and a sesame sauce and my husband had the purple rice with steak with gochuang sauce. Both were good for fast food, but my husband's steak was chewy instead of tender and was a cheap tasting cut. Service was very good at this location with both people behind the counter pleasant, and the dining area clean (though not too comfortable due to hard chairs). Unsweetened black iced tea with currant was delicious. Steak bowl was $13 and tofu bowl $11.

I ordered a beef bowl with half rice/half japchae. It was so delicious. The beef was seasoned just right and it was still warm when the Uber Eats delivered to me. I also added extra tofu, and it’s the small square-ish firm tofu (not soft). I really like it. I chose the yum-yum sauce option. It came in as a convenient pack. I tried it, it’s okay, kind of tasted like mayonnaise but not with much of flavor. I will still order the beef plus tofu combination next time, and try other sauce. Definitely recommended!

This is a dedicated gluten-free place and you can make sure any other allergens or dietary restrictions are taken seriously. It's an order at the counter kind of place, but very clean an inviting. It feels like a step up from Tokyo Joe's. The miso soup is available to anyone for self-serve. All the ingredients I had with my bowl were delicious. They even let me do the base as half and half: half purple rice, half sweet potato noodles. The bathrooms were clean too.
