Jibek Jolu - Chicago

Wow. Truly an incredible immersive experience in a cuisine and culture I have never been exposed to. The ambiance and food were top notch along with the service. It’s worth the trip, while the flavors are not unfamiliar, they are uniquely paired.

Food is fabulous. Everyone loved it. Service was friendly, a little slow, but note NO ONLINE RESERVATUONS. Google took a reservation, but the restaurant will not honor it. The dining room is small, a little crowded, a little loud. I wish they would put the yurt back up.

I will 100% be coming back here. I got the Boso Lagman noodles and MY GOD, it was delicious. Ask the server for extra hot sauce and vinegar, it is an excellent addition to the dish. The hand pulled noodles were amazing and the beef in the dish was so flavorful. Love the aesthetic and decor of the restaurant as well. I was not planning on leaving a review on here but after my experience I couldn’t help myself. 5/5 stars!!!

It is a great spot for something special. We came here for lunch not everyday you get to eat Kyrgyz food! This is a large restaurant in The Glen, with great outdoor space. It is run by Central Asians, so it is worth asking for recommendations from the menu. We had the mixed meal platter and the dumplings. Everything was very delicious!! We definitely over ordered, I thought it was a great value for the price. I’ll definitely be back here!

One of my favorite restaurants. Delicious food and a good atmosphere.
