Excellent Sunday experience at Bigsuda in Wicker Park! Delicious soup dumplings! We tried the truffle and then the crab and shrimp. Also tried the cucumber kimchi and beef soup. Plenty options for amazing flavor, especially the broth in the ramen soup with just the right amount of kick. Lots of great options on the menu - offering wide variety. Friendly and swift service team. 10/10 recommend!
Loved this place! My boyfriend stopped by for a quick lunch and it was great. Got soup dumplings, the steak and rice plate, and a soup. All was truly great and flavorful. Service was also great as Eddie made sure to accommodate my food allergy (nuts) and was patient with my questions. He made sure to let the kitchen know several times about my allergy which I appreciated. Overall, I’d recommend!
Came here for an early dinner and there was no wait! Everything was yummy but our favs were the kimchi & pork mandoo (make sure you get it pan seared. You get a sexy halo crisp on top) and the haemul pajun!! The pajun was big enough for 2-4 people. Overall very delish and a great local spot for us. Will be back!
Amazing blend of flavors with juicy soup dumplings and my favorite dish of Jellyfish Bruschetta. Walked in reading the sign that read "Soup Dumplings and More" and the MORE really hit hard. Their mandoo and soup dumplings are their specialty, but they also have delicious appetizers, shrimp fried rice, and dombe guksu. I really liked their Lychee Lush highball cocktail but their other drinks all sound phenomenal. Their desserts are slightly on the small side but they taste good, especially their chocolate mousse. The staff are friendly and helpful and the restaurant has a quaint, dark dining environment with a somewhat romantic setting.
Eddie our server was awesome. We came in right before close and he sat us. We know what its like right before close and wanting to get out but his service was amazing. We got a noodle dish and two dumpling soups and everything was amazing. I never write reviews this place is great check it out
Good was great so thankful these guys took us in near last call for when the kitchen closed. The interior was super pretty. I love the modern twist on the food, super yummy. Very fulfilling totally recommend getting the classic soup dumpling pork flavor.
My boyfriend and I are huge fans of Oiistar, so we were pumped when Bigsuda opened. We ordered a bunch of dishes recommended by the server, and everything was just as good as we expected. The ambiance is great—on the darker side (which I love)—and even though it's a small space, it doesn’t feel crowded. Everything came out quickly, and the staff was attentive. My favorite was the noodles, but the dumplings are something I'll definitely come back for, too. We got the bitter orange tiramisu, which was the perfect size, and I think it was my boyfriend's favorite part of the meal. It was definitely bitter—something I usually shy away from—but it worked. I would gladly eat it again. We're in the south suburbs, but the food at these two restaurants keeps pulling us back! Love to see them growing.
The atmosphere of this place is really cool. Service was great, no complaints. You can find street parking a block or two down the road. Food was amazing!! Soup dumplings are huge! The pan-seared dumplings are a little smaller than expected for the price, but WOW are they good. The dipping sauce they give you is delicious. It’s sweet with little strips of ginger, super fresh. I had the Ginppl Mule and it was delightful! Super refreshing! 10/10 We had two orders of pan-seared dumplings, 1 order of soup dumplings, the Crabby clam puffs, shrimp egg fried rice, and my drink all for under 80!!
