- MMandyChicago / Illinois •33 reviews4.0Dined todayCool vibe inside. We got the premium meats plate for $70 and was very underwhelmed by the size of the meats. It was little square pieces of meat. The pork belly was good with the sojung paste. The A5 wagyu was ok. The ribeye was ok too. Overall, I think need to make their portions a little bigger for the price. Melon cocktail and aloe juice were good!More infoPERILLA fare - West LoopPrice: Expensive• Korean• West Town•4.7

- CChandlerChicago / Illinois •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWas very excited to try this spot! We got the Wagyu steakhouse set (honestly for the price it wasn’t worth it, it was very tasty but I could’ve easily eaten it by myself and not shared with my date (Im 29F)) thankfully we ordered a lot of things to be able to try the menu! Oysters were FANTASTIC very fresh & tasty. I’d pass on the egg soufflé really just a soft scramble, fairly basic but a large servicing (could be a good breakfast as a lil steak & eggs ensemble). They had a special for valentines which was a sweet potato hash with pork belly which was delightful but a fairly small serving. Drinks were good, I got a basic gin martini but it was made to perfection, my date got the ‘perilla in Oaxaca’ it was tasty but a bit sweet for our liking. The dishes that stole the show… Korean fried chicken.. cooked to absolute perfection! Not too greasy, amazing crunch & the soy garlic glaze was phenomenal (huge serving too) & lastly the kimchi fried rice was divine. The blue cheese leveled up the dish exceptionally well. I 11/10 recommend those dishes if you’re going! We left comfortably full with leftovers.More infoPERILLA steakhouse - RiverwalkPrice: Very Expensive• Korean• Downtown / Loop•4.6

He gave stellar recommendations on drink and food and was so personable. Probably the best restaurant service experience I have had in years. Alex should get a raise!More infoTAK Korean BistroPrice: Moderate• Korean• South Loop•4.1
