" Restaurant has great Korean soup, but I think my experience was affected by the wait for a busy lunchtime. The food was comforting and perfect on a chilly day, but I had to follow up multiple times for my order, leading to a frustrating experience. I would love to come back when it’s less crowded because the flavors were exactly what I was looking for. Cash only was a bit annoying too, but I appreciate that they have an ATM inside. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I appreciate the authentic taste of the seolleongtang at Han Bat, I found the overall experience a bit lacking. The soup had a great depth of flavor, but the service was confusing and slightly unorganized during my visit. The atmosphere is very simple and can feel a bit cold, but it makes a good stop for a warm meal. The portion was decent though. I think I would be willing to try this place again, perhaps on a less busy day! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love Han Bat for its authenticity! This is a no-frills joint focusing on the beloved Korean dish – seolleongtang. I’ve tried many places in and out of Chicago, but none compare. Their broth is rich and makes for a hearty meal. I do wish there would be more variety in side dishes, but the kimchi served is top-notch. On the whole, it’s a great place to relish a bowl of delicious soup. Just remember, it’s cash only and be prepared for a community vibe since it can get busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, Han Bat is the real deal when it comes to Korean soup! I’m usually picky, but their seolleongtang lived up to my expectations. It’s got a great, comforting warmth to it, great for any weather. I was impressed by their homemade kimchi – truly delicious! The space is nothing fancy, but it adds to the authenticity. However, service can be a bit inconsistent depending on how busy they get. Overall, I’d recommend giving it a shot if you're craving hearty soup. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having visited Han Bat more times than I can count, I always leave satisfied. Their seolleongtang is nothing short of exceptional, with the rich bone broth really shining through. I appreciate that everything is kept simple, allowing the ingredients to speak for themselves. It's a cozy little spot that's perfect for a rainy day. The kimchi is also consistently fresh and delicious. However, a word of advice: always bring cash, as they don't take cards. Trust me, it's worth every penny and every visit! Overall, fantastic Korean comfort food that warms the heart and soul. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to admit, I was a bit nervous trying Han Bat, but the seolleongtang served was more than enough to put my fears to rest! The depth of flavor in every spoonful was incredible. I wasn’t expecting much from the atmosphere, but it felt welcoming and friendly. Although our order took time, I appreciated the cozy feel. Definitely a must-try for anyone craving authentic Korean soup! " (*Curated Review*)

" My first experience at Han Bat was enjoyable. I really loved their seolleongtang, which was comforting on a chilly day. The service could use some polishing, as things felt a bit chaotic during my visit despite the bustling atmosphere. I will definitely consider coming back, especially since the portions are worthwhile, but I'd recommend visiting outside of peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)
