Korean American Steakhouse Menus
Every meal at PERILLA Steakhouse is built around one idea: great ingredients, handled well, shared at the table.
We serve breakfast, lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch seven days a week on the Chicago Riverwalk. Mornings start with Korean breakfast trays and our famed breakfast sandwich. Lunch brings Korean classics like bibimbap and more traditional steakhouse offerings like steak frites. Dinner opens up the full steakhouse experience: table-side Korean BBQ sets with A5 wagyu and prime short rib, caviar service, and a beverage program built around soju, makgeolli, and wine. Weekend brunch is made even more fun with kimchi Bloody Marys and table-side grilling.
Happy hour runs daily 4–5pm.
