Utumporn Killoran had been running the Thai Street Food Cart on the 16th Street Mall for years before she finally got her own brick-and-mortar spot in 2011 — a space in Aurora that she uses as a carry-out-only restaurant.

Showing 221 - 242 of 245This hopping spot filled with people speaking both Korean and English is just plain fun. While it’s often filled with families digging into meals during the early evening hours, as the night grows later they’re supplanted by groups of all ages focused on knocking back tiny glasses of soju and enjoying everything from steamed sea […]
Don’t let the fact that Tofu House is a franchise put you off: This string of restaurants stretches to central Seoul, where multiple locations of a restaurant are an indicator of excellence. True to its name, Tofu House specializes in tofu, cooked into a dozen or so stews bobbing with seafood, brightened with kimchi or […]
Prolific local restaurateur J.W. Lee brought the metro area another hit when he introduced Tofu Story next door to one of his longtime establishments, Seoul Korean BBQ & Hot Pot.

All of the bottles and glasses served in the restaurant are available for sale in the shop; most of the bottles in the […]
This small family-owned spot has been specializing in wings for two decades, and the experience shows. The wings are on the smaller side, but with tender meat, a nice, crisp bite and a whopping 46 killer sauce and dry-rub options, size really doesn’t matter here. Not sure where to start? The garlic parmesan is a […]
Woody’s kitchen does wings by the ten-count, in sauces that range from mild (pretty much just butter with a kiss of hot sauce) to hot (which isn’t that hot, but biting enough to call for a cool cup of blue-cheese dressing) to nuclear. The dining room is just a white box festooned with sports pennants, […]
