First time getting Bibimbap. Can never go wrong with veggies and meat over rice. I opted to add both bulgogi and fire chicken. The bulgogi wasn't too sweet and my preference over the chicken which wasn't as flavorful. The veggies were all tasty providing slightly different textures. The gochujang sauce wasn't that spicy and I actually preferred it by itself. Finally, the fried egg was perfect with the yolk spreading all over the rice.

Small portion, expensive priceGood service anyway

Service is just ok. Atmosphere is good. Food is good. Prices are disrespectful. $12-14 for a beer. Between a party of 6 people, with an average of 3-4 drinks per person, we spent $120/person. There are better places, which are more affordable, and you'll have an equally good time.

Simply some of the best Korean food I’ve ever had and that includes spending time in Seoul. Jordan took care of us yesterday and did such a stellar job in every way. They had a confident handle on menu-knowledge, beverage, and blended their personality into the experience masterfully. As a current chef and restaurant vet of over 16 years, I know the spots and the people when I see them. I will be back! Go if you haven’t!

Genuinely the worst kbbq experience I’ve ever had. The portions were very small and everything was overpriced. The banchan was extra, which is something I’ve never experienced at a kbbq, usually it’s included. The wagyu we had was incredibly fatty - the pork belly completely unseasoned. On top of that it made me feel quite sick and I had to stop eating. It was my friend’s birthday, and all we got were some lousy shots of non-alcoholic juice ?. Left hungry and a nauseas. Please, if you’re looking for kbbq in the city, GO ELSEWHERE. this is NOT worth your money.

Super slow service despite a mostly empty restaurant; we were seated 30 minutes late, and two hours into our reservation, we still didn't have our main course. And at $120 per person, the menu didn't feel well-priced, especially since half of our party of 10 ended up with upset stomachs 1-8 hours post-meal.

Impeccable service,the food was delicious would go back for more scallion pancakes and wings among other fare. Fantastic experience the staff was so kind and attentive. Fabulous Chicago addition ?

For someone with dietary restrictions I loved the food I had a good choice from all there categories. I have shellfish allergy and only eat chicken so.. The server was knowledgable and was able to guide us skillfully . Very courteous staff and u can tell by the service its an upscale restraunt !

It's very nice place for BBQ. Good vibes to hangout with friends and it has a really great quality of beef and pork. I will definitely come back with friends again. Love Korean BBQ !!
Over priced for the amount of food you get. Quality was good but not worth the money and you get extremely small portions. I'd recommend it if you want really nice Korean fare but don't expect great food value.Parking: No parking near there must go under the bridgeKid-friendliness: You could bring kids. I saw a few there but it's pretty expensive for children

One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! The staff are OUTSTANDING—attentive, fun, knowledgeable. Everything we ordered was a winner. Highly recommend the awesome drink menu and any of the tasting plates (specifically the LA galbi). I was especially amazed that I got a full KBBQ grilling experience without smelling like meat fumes after the fact. From small table details to plating, this restaurant is super impressive. Definitely a feel-good, “special occasion” kind of place. You’ll leave really full and very happy. Thank you, Perilla!

Promising review on Michelin and marked as Bib Gourmand, Perilla was a nice but forgettable Korean BBQ place. Expensive, but typical for the area. Service was excellent and very attentive, with nice decor and ambience, but the main menu wasn't that exciting or worth the price. Their lounge menu seems much more interesting and remarkable; wish we had gotten that rather than the modest plate of meat that just tasted like meat. Fried rice was solid.

Got the traditional set with the perilla addition, portion sizes were quite small for the price but the meat was good. Banchan were
