Excellent dining experience! The food quality and service are spot on. Service from all staff was helpful and kind. We celebrated a Birthday and the staff signed a card, served a complimentary sparkling treat along with a beautiful dessert. Thank you Perilla Fare.

My second time, after a divine first impression a year or two ago. Not the same kind of knockout this time, especially given the price point, but still very, very good. Service has been excellent both times: personable, informed and informative, good rhythm of checking in. Food is delicious. The bavette and the scallops stood out; the wagyu a little less so, but still very tasty. The lighting and visual ambience are great, and I like the location. Like most restaurants these days, but even more than average, the space is way too loud. If you want people to converse, especially across a wide Korean barbecue table, why is the music so jacked up? I understand others may not feel the same. Sonic overload (especially also with tables so close together) and slightly too-high cost are why I'm holding back from five stars. But people really ought to support this place and ita staff. I had a five-star night the first time and I bet I will again!

My colleagues and I were looking for something other than the traditional steakhouse experience. We were blown away by the food and the service. Julia greeted us as we arrived, and the entire staff was outstanding. There were 5 of us. We ordered a few Starters - Shishito peppers (amazing!), Korean bbq wings, and scallion pancake. We ordered the Chef’s Table for everyone - wagyu, ribeye cap, brisket, pork belly, and marinated ribeye. This is a must! Great place to try different cuts with Asian flavors!
