Pretty good experience and very friendly service. Had a medium sized group and were able to be seated Sunday evening. Got the Forastero, fish, and kalbi tacos. All good, but I definitely thought the fish stood out. Good crisp and excellent flavor. Dak wings were a big disappointment. Came out way too hot on the inside (seemed like it was nuked in the microwave) and the sauce was heavy and artificial. Decent sized portion so didn’t mind the price too much. Friends thought the kimchi fries and bugolgi bowl were also decent. Overall very large selection and want to try the vegan menu next time.

Best fish tacos I've ever had. I dined in here a couple of months ago on a double date, and I just had take-out last night. I absolutely love it. Everything about the food at Forastero is done perfectly: the flavors, the textures, the freshness of the ingredients, did I mention the flavors? The tamales were some of the best I've ever had (two for $6 is a steal!) The pork in the tamales was tender, perfectly fatty, generously portioned, and seasoned to perfection. The wings and the kimchi fries are the bomb. All of the tacos are awesome- great flavor and ingredient combinations (but the Crispy Fish taco is hands down the best). There's plenty of seating, they have daily specials, and they're BYOB! Service is quick and friendly, and you can tell the owner really cares about his patrons and his business. I will continue coming here and will rave to everyone I know about this hidden gem in Chicago.

Korean Mexican fusion is an interesting concept and they have a pretty interesting and tasty-looking menu. I got the Korean BBQ sandwich and kimchi fries. Both were tasty, but admittedly I got the more Korean dishes so I didn't feel the fusion. They have good vegan options, my vegan friend enjoyed her meal (vegan kimchi fries and vegan floutas). Overall nice decor, BYOB, chill atmosphere, medium amount of seating. I would consider coming back here to try to rest of the menu.
