" Overall, Bistro Chi-Q has some of the best Korean food in the area. However, I did find one of the specials, a seafood pancake, to be lacking in flavor. The chicken, where I had the sweet soy version, was excellent though. The atmosphere was warm and inviting; it’s a great place for gathering with friends. The service slipped a bit during the rush hour, which is to be expected with such a popular spot. I will visit again but might skip the pancake next time. " (*Curated Review*)

I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic Korean dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit to Bistro Chi-Q left me excited to return soon! The fried chicken was crispy, juicy, and the seasoning was on point. The bulgogi hot pot was divine; generous portions and packed with rich flavors. Although the service was a bit slow at the peak time, the friendly demeanor of the staff made up for it. A great place to eat; I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to experience authentic Korean cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't get enough of Bistro Chi-Q! Each visit has been a treat. The croffles are uniquely amazing! Their side of pickled radish compliments the fried chicken perfectly.

The ambiance has that cozy yet lively vibe which is perfect for a dinner with friends. Can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)
