Parachute HiFi is a renowned Korean-American restaurant that has captured the hearts of local foodies and earned a prestigious Michelin star. Owned by the husband-and-wife duo, Beverly Kim and Johnny Clark, the restaurant has shifted from offering a Korean fusion menu to focusing on traditional Korean cuisine.
The restaurant is praised for its amazing ambiance, featuring a sleek, modern, and welcoming atmosphere perfect for a memorable dining experience. The music played throughout the evening is noted as being spot-on, enhancing the overall vibe.
Reviews highlight the exceptional quality of the food, describing the dishes as "crave-able" and "delicious." Specific menu items mentioned include the yuk hwe (Korean beef tartare), Korean fried chicken, haemul pajeon (seafood pancake), burger, pad Thai, 30-day dry-aged bulgogi, and the s'mores patbingsu (a dessert with layers of chocolate shaved ice, marshmallow, Swiss meringue, cinnamon honey ice cream, puffed barley, and candied red beans). The burger is particularly celebrated as one of the best in the city, complemented by melted fondue sauce.
Customers praise the affordable and amazing cocktails, mentioning the milk punch cocktail and the unique savoriness that makes them easy to drink. The attentive and friendly service has received mixed reviews; while some staff are described as great, others appear over-leveraged or lacking urgency. The restaurant is described as both a neighborhood gem and a destination spot, with the Michelin star recognition adding to its appeal.
Unfortunately, the reviews also note that Parachute HiFi will be closing its doors on March 23, with the owners planning to unveil a new concept in the same space in the near future. Diners are advised to keep an eye out for any last-minute reservation availability, as this acclaimed restaurant is sure to be missed by the local community.
