Reviews for Parachute in Chicago, IL
Hole in the wall little Korean place that is so unique and special! Warning: you have to like new and interesting foods. You... can't come here and expect a burger ???? Read more
I went to this restaurant several years ago and I absolutely loved the food. The meal was truly incredible, the interplay of... flavors was amazing, and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. While this was a while ago I wanted to give thisincredible restaurant the 5 stars it deserves after hearing about the scammers trying to harm their reputation. Read more
Had a simply lovely time here with friends. Parachute is well worth the hype and I would happily recommend this place to anyone.... You will spend a pretty penny but I thought it was worth it. Favorite dishes were the Golbaengi Muchim, the Haemul Pajeon, theKalbi Jjim, and the Patbingsu. Another table had the Pork Bossam which looked amazing so I'd love to get them when I goback. The restaurant is very small so get your reservations early! The staff was phenomenal and I'd recommend trying somemakgeoli if you drink. Read more
Everything was good. Drink menu has lots of Korean beverages to sample that would be hard to find elsewhere. Dessert was the... best course - 5 stars for that - don't skip it. 4 stars just because the price for other dishes was more than I think they wereworth. Read more
Delicious! We ordered 4 dishes and a dessert for the two of us. It was a lot of food. Next time we go, we will probably order 3... dishes and then maybe order 1 more depending on how we feel on our 3rd dish! Their Bingsu is to die for. I've had a fair shareof Bingsus in my life growing up in Korea. It was one of the best Bingsus I've ever had and I will definitely be back for it.Their Galbijjim was very generous in portion and I loved the rice in stone bowl, Dolsotbap. Oh. I will definitely be back. Read more
Delicious unique Korean food experience. Had the off the cuff tasting menu and beverage pairing. Service was great and friendly.... The overall portions of the tasting menu are very filling. We struggled to eat it all. Worth every bite. Gave it 4 stars becausethere were some courses that were not great and I do not find myself with a strong desire to return for a second visit. Read more
I really don't know where to start with this place. Every single aspect of dinner was amazing I can't wait to come back again!... Highly highly recommend getting the off the cuff tasting option from the chef...great surprise dishes with both menu andnon-menu items. We sat next to two couples that did the same thing and our dishes were all different. Not to mention the amountof food you get...the plates kept coming! Literally had 8 dishes! Bing bread was delicious, the salmon melted in my mouth, andthe yogurt ginger dessert was sinful! The service was also excellent. They explained that they work as a team and would takeorders, bring food and remove plates between all the employees. Could be confusing but they all worked seamlessly and well withone another. Double high five! Might I add, this kitchen was one of the cleaniest I have ever seen. The communal table wasn'tappealing at first but was quickly at ease. The table was long and wide and more than enough room for everyone and I never feltlike our space was compromised. Overall I couldn't be happier! Left feeling very satisfied and with a smile on my face. I willbe back for more! Read more
Not cheap by any means but worth every penny. Loved the food, the Choctaw were great. My daughter's lemonade was really nice... and not too sweet. Favorite was the tempura veg and beef soup Oh and the shaved ice dessert was amazing too. Read more
