    A lot of hype. Mediocre at best. Iced tea for two glasses, $14… Not informed that there is a charge for refills. A bit ridiculous!  Went for lunch… Maybe dinner could be better. Not sure but probably not.

    Went yesterday for hubby's birthday. Overall, wonderful experience. At first, I was a little miffed being seated right by the open kitchen and hearing the expediter throughout our meal especially with this being a special occasion which is why I rated noise level a 4. But that annoyance quickly subsidded as soon as our main server Kellen introduced himself. He exuded warmth and just immediately put us at ease, just Loved him!. Additionally, our other server Ian was very pleasent and had a constant warm smile on his face and did a great job keeping our water filled, cooking our meat, and generally making sure we didn't need anything, such a pleasent person and on top of his work. When we first sat down, they welcomed us with a little birthday card for hubby signed by the staff. They also had a non alcoholic toast drink for us (we don't drink). The only thing they missed was a candle in the cake we ordered for dessert but I asked for one and they quickly brought it. We ordered the wagyu set with hanger steak add on, monkey bread, mixed greens, bone marrow, fois gras, scalops, beef fat fries, bolognese, chocolate cake, coffee and banana tea. Everything was delicious , monkey bread was the best and surprisingly the banana tea was so good. My husband loved his birthday meal and the experience was great. It is oblivious the staff are all happy to work there and they all get along with eachother. It's a great vibe amongst them and that comes through in the service to customers from the hostess desk to the bar to the servers to the kitchen staff. One thing I didn't like was the bone marrow as I expected to be more roasted which is not how they make it (other tables were eating it and looked to be enjoying it), it just wasn't to my taste. They proactively took that off the bill (didn't have to ask) which was a very nice gesture. I highly recommend you give them a try and we will for sure be back to dinner and also want to try lunch and brunch there. Great job Perilla!

    Dined here for lunch today and the experience was great in every way! Warm, thoughtful and friendly service from literally everyone, hostess, server, other servers/bussers. Lovely. Korean lunch tray was delicious and I would definitely return and recommend to others! Thank you!

    The service at Perilla was exceptional. It was the birthday of one of our party members and the staff went above and beyond, even providing a hand written card for the birthday person!

    Nice presentation, but food was not authentic. We were disappointed by the flavors, and would not have thought we were at a Korean restaurant, especially as the party was all Korean. Overall, food was average in taste. Good cocktails, though
