Red Top Grill (in the process of changing its name to BBop Lounge) has finally filled what I have always thought is a major gap: good, authentic Korean restaurants in a nice environment and central location. BBop is a place where both Korean food first-timers and Korean nationals can feel comfortable. I lived in Korea for the last 2 years, and my wife is Korean, and we both give high ratings to the chef. We tried the beef kalbi, kimchee jigae (soup), and kimchee pajeon: all were made with good ingredients and were not too salty, as some Korean food can be. The side dishes were plentiful and unlimited (as they should be at a true Korean restaurant), but interestingly the rice was also unlimited. Needless to say, we left the restaurant feeling quite satisfied. Three things set this restaurant apart from the older-style traditional restaurants in the city: - The service was impecable. - The decor has a modern lounge-like atmospher. - The location is in Old Town, just south of the Brown Line Sedgwick station, making it the most centrally located real Korean restaurant that I know of in the city. This is a new restaurant, and I wish them all the best!
