Finally!! I've been looking for a place that serves Korean food that is not "fusion"... And this place has good authentic flavors! Refreshing. Prices are moderate and food is good. I actually had delivery so I can't say much about service or atmosphere but definitely will order from here again. Gave equal rating for each although in my case didn't apply because I enjoyed the food. MUCH better than others around Washinton Park area... Would name names but feeling nice after a good dinner! -) Hope you all enjoy..

My four girlfriends and I had a joint birthday dinner here a few weeks ago and had a wonderful experience. We went with a total of 12 people, and ordered several of the Korean dishes and sushi as well. They were really accomodating even making sweet potato tempura sushi for me because I am a vegetarian. We had a really raucous bunch, but they were very gracious and helpful. We got different kinds of sake and soju, the watermelon flavored kind was awesome. All in all, a great place, I would definitely go back.

Choga is in the heart of busy village scene and by now a sort of a land mark. food is usually consistent in taste and they cater to a moderately americanized korean taste buds. over all not a bad place to have dinner but the owner could better manage the servicing staff. changing the menu once in a while would also help. side dishes are adequate but not extravagant compared to other korean restaurants. better than average is my rating.

My husband and I have been there a couple of times because of the sushi. Great taste and variety. Waiter didn't speak English very well and it was a little difficult to communicate with him. Because of this we ordered something that was not what we expected but they changed without a problem. Prices are ok.

I used to go to Choga when I used to go to at NYU. Considering that I rarely went home for homemade Korean food by my mom, Choga was my default when I couldn't push myself to go all the way to Korea Town. Their Hae Dup Bab, aka sashimi and rice and lettuce w/spicy sauce is always fresh from the sushi bar, it's my favorite dish when I'm in the mood for sashimi. Their Yuk Gae Jang is really spicy and so if you're decongested that'll do the trick. Although you can ask them to moderate the spices. And considering the consistent music selection of 80s classic rock and pop, it's a great place to go w/friends. The prices have gone up but the food's the same great quality.

Came here on a Saturday afternoon and ordered the vegetable tempura and a spicy tuna roll. The roll was fine, tempura was very greasy. There was one waitress, she was having lunch herself, had to wait a long for water, food, and the check. Nothing special about this place.

Hidden above peculiar pub this place is a new favorite. A must try at lunch - the lunch boxes are fantastic! So much food and such great quality. I had the glass noodles which were ok but the tempura, dumpling, sides, etc were so fantastic. The beef bulgogi was great as well. Only complaint was with service which was really lax. There was hardly anyone in there but the waitress seemed pretty uninterested in doing anything in a timely manner. Luckily wasn't in a hurry so wasn't a big deal. Can't wait to go back.
