PERILLA korean steakhouse
A modern interpretation of the classic Chicago steakhouse inspired by traditional Korean flavors. We pay homage to the city’s iconic steakhouse roots while introducing a new iteration of the classic dining concept. PERILLA korean steakhouse offers an energetic and explorative dining experience with custom table-side grills built into each table in a beautifully designed warm space thoughtfully introducing elements of Korean architecture. PERILLA steakhouse is the second location from the Michelin-recognized PERILLA team originating in the West Loop. We serve Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner services 7 days a week with Brunch Menus offered during Saturday and Sunday lunch hours.
