I tried some pickles and salad at the college tea break. I really liked the pink Tangy Red Radish; it was sweet and tangy and very refreshing. There were two kinds of cucumbers: Mild Cucumber was too garlicky, and Kimchi Cucumber was a bit too salty. The salad vegetables were generally fresh, and the carrots were crisp and sweet, which was excellent, but the Gochujang Aioli was a bit too sweet for me. read more

Perillas has one focus: Quality Food. With three locations in Boston, their recently opened spot in Lower Allston is quietly tucked away near Shabu Shabu Spring. A casual Korean kitchen with just a couple people with food that packs a punch. The staff was very welcoming when I walked in getting my order and answering my questions about the menu. There is also a kiosk to place your order as well when they get busy. They have a few tables to sit down and eat but I feel like they get a lot of pickup and to go orders as well. I had seen some of their bowls in pictures online and they looked very small but in person they have so much food in them. My friend and I got our own bowls and shared a quesadilla and I ate most of the quesadilla but realized I was too full to eat the other 90% of the bowl lol. Rookie mistake but the leftovers slapped. My favorite thing for sure was the bulgogi beef quesadilla which was just so flavorful and filling. The bowls were all delicious from the different sides it came with to the side sauces which were all unique in their flavor. I need those recipes. I will need to check out the haymarket location as well as they have some different items there like kimbap.

This place is so good!!!! I've only ever gotten takeout, but the delivery is always fresh and delicious. The portions are great, definitely worth what you pay for, and then some!! And the menu is spot on. Planning to make my way through it all! I find myself wanting to order from here every week! read more

Dining method: counter-serve at the Boston Public Market Item(s) ordered: Veggie bowl Speed: Bowl was made immediately--great service Value: Pricing is typical for the area, large portions though! The Review: I was on the hunt for a safe-yet-delicious gluten-free option at the Boston Public Market, when I came upon Perillas. Although the only gluten-free option on the menu, they had the Veggie Bowl, and it was awesome. It was loaded with rice and veggies. My favorite things had to be the spicy garlic cucumbers and the Yum-Yum aioli. The portion size was substantial, and the dish was so flavorful. I was pleasantly surprised. What really drew me in was how spotless the place looked. They had signage for proper prep station cleaning, and the server was very knowledgeable on what contained gluten, so I felt very safe. Thank you, Perillas! read more

Tried it for takeout, had the Bulgogi and it was kind of bland, service was non-contact and smooth.

Came here during the opening and was pretty disappointed, tbh. I was really excited at first, but the first trials didn't do justice. There was soooo much rice and not much meat/veggies in these bowls, it wasn't balanced at all. Not worth the price I paid for it for sure. I felt the same with my friend's bowl. read more

Don't let the zoomed in Instagram photos fool you. The rice bowls actually aren't that big in person. However, I did feel full 30 minutes after while drinking water to expand the rice in my stomach. Definitely an interesting meat to rice ratio . The pickled kimchi cucumbers were really good and refreshing. I got the Beef Galbi. Although it was good, I wish it was flame grilled to have char marks on it and some more pieces. Probably get more bang for your buck with the pork belly. Too bad they don't have self serve gochujang sauce to smother it in or sesame oil to dip. Serving dessert here is kind of strange because 1000% the ice cream will be served before the main dishes. The chocolate tiramisu coffee taco is really great and there is a cake consistency to the filling so it isn't melting all over the place. Highly recommended, but at $7.50 per taco, it will be a rare treat instead of a daily diabetic fuel. Definitely the price matches supply, so check if it's in stock since there's limited quantity. Overall, I wish it was a little cheaper and had better serving sizes, but I'm a gluttonous cheapskate Asian who hunts for deals. Definitely need more Korean restaurants in the Allston/Brighton area to increase competition. I still can't believe Perillas are some Korean herbal plant. Thought it was an Italian restaurant name. Maybe I'm reminded of Peroni beer. read more

I'm so excited to see this spot expand and grow throughout (and outside) Boston! It's such a delicious, easy and affordable spot to get some quick Korean food - in bowl form. I've tried their pork belly and bulgogi - both were delicious. Can't wait to see this place continue to thrive! read more

At this restaurant I placed my order at the counter and waited for it to be prepared. It is right next to Star Market so it here is plenty of parking. I thought the portion was small based on the price. Maybe I am expecting to much. The dining area was bright with all the windows. I had barbecued pork with a side salad and cucumbers. It was a tad bit spicy for me. read more

Very tasty bowl and one bowl was enough to feed two of us (unless you are super hungry then go for it!). We had the beef and spicy gojujang sauce which was very good, but it is spicy so if you don't eat hot food, go for the aioli sauce instead. We liked the bowl and would go back for sure. read more

My son loves this place and he eats what I can't finish. The tortilla style pork wrap was tasty but way too much red sauce-grease coming out of it. Don't wear white eating that. My kid tried pork belly and rice and also the short-rib meal w rice. He enjoyed it but couldn't eat the spicy vegetable side dish. read more

this spot is very yummy! the menu offerings is smaller at this locations, but they are very generous with the portion. i got the beef bulgogi bibimbap and the bibimbap with spicy pork (they were out of beef that day and substituted w/ spicy pork). both items were delicious and BIG. i had enough for lunch the next day. they also offer spicy or mild sauce for the bibimbap. neither are spicy, the mild is like spicy mayo--so just for the spicy sauce. the staff are also super sweet and quick! overall, i would recommend this spot if you are in the boston public market. for the price, i think you get a flavorful and FILLING meal! read more

Such a nice addition to lower Allston! With the lack of casual Korean food in Boston, this fills a much needed gap in the food scene. They serve up Korean style rice bowls that are the perfect size for a quick meal. The pickled veggies are done really well (those cucumbers) and the meat has always been good. I highly recommend the kalbi! They serve dessert too! Honeycomb ice cream tacos which are also such a nice treat read more

Located on Western Ave across from the Brighton Mills area and right next to a Honeycomb Creamery! A small little spot that offers Korean bowls that make a well balanced meal. I ordered online through Toasttab and picked up a short rib bowl. It comes with kimchi cucumbers, salad, rice, and a sweet sauce to pour over everything. The packaging itself is deceiving, since the bowl looks quite small, but it's actually quite deep and there's a lot to this bowl. The meat is tender and well flavored, while the kimchi cucumbers add the perfect amount of spice to the dish. Give it a good mix and you have a little bit of each in every bite you take. They also offer bibimbap, pork belly, spicy pork bowls, and well as spicy pork quesadilla. Overall, a good experience if you're in the mood for a rice bowl. read more

This place is in a great area. The owners are very friendly and nice. We got to try their new Bibimbap Bowls which was pork belly and short rib. They were so favorful and the texture was amazing.

I've now done takeout for lunch here twice and have been very impressed. I've tried the bulgogi and samgyupsal(pork belly). The bulgogi is well marinated and very tender. I liked the samgyupsal even better because it's so fatty. The cucumber kimchi is also really tasty and pairs well with the rich pork belly. The house bbq paste(ssamjang?) was really flavorful and garlicky. After a string of bad experiences with takeout rice(too mushy or too dry), I really appreciated the rice which was very good(I know its just rice but it makes a difference when cooked properly). I now am eager to go in person as the food is probably even better when super fresh and eaten in the restaurant. read more

I got this at the Boston Public Market and woo let me share my excitement. All the flavors are amazing, the portion is perfect for the price of $13 something. I have ordered from here multiple times because it's just so freaking delicious. Boston Public Market has various food spots but this place by far beats all!!! The service is perfect, polite, and speedy. read more

bulgogi beef is FIRE! a bit slow service but well worth the wait & this spot is so much mote chill than eating at quincy market!

The food is delicious here! The portions are excellent and everything is prepared quickly. Nice to have fast casual Korean food nearby!

Updated: 7/15/2021 Came back to try this place again since I had a gift card and got to say this time was a big improvement. Portions were larger and they gave a lot more meat. Very happy with the updates the owner has made and will definitely visit again. Xxxxxx Old Review: I was excited to see a new grab n go place pop up in the lower Allston area, especially as it offered one of my favorite Korean foods, bibimbap. So my fiance and I decided to give it a try on a Friday for lunch. I placed an order online easily. The menu is limited with only three types of bowls. I got the bulgogi bibimbap and my fiance got the pork belly. As a note, if you order onsite it seems they have ice cream as well. Our order was ready right on time. The place is small with some outdoor seating but we took ours to go. First, I'll start by saying the taste was good. There was a good helping of vegetables and the bowl wasn't drizzled in sauce, which personally I like. The part that got this place three stars was the tiny portion of meat given. I think I only got two full pieces of beef in my bulgogi and for $11-12 that is a rip off in my book. Additionally, both my fiance and I were still hungry after finishing our bowls. Its nice to have a new food place in lower Allston but I don't think I'll be back. read more

4 stars for deliciousness. 2 stars, though, bc my daughter got sick to her stomach 30 minutes or so after eating beef bibimbap w egg. Our first time there so... our last time, too. read more

I got the bulgogi bibimbap at the Perillas in the Boston Public Market and it was SO delicious. I told my boyfriend that it was probably the best food I've had in Boston so far. Waited 15 minutes for a fresh batch of rice and the girl who meticulously prepared my bowl was incredibly nice to me & even gave me a water bottle on the house! I wish I got her name, but hopefully I'll see her again when I go back sometime soon & update this review to give her the props she deserves. :) definitely try this place out! read more

Yumm, a great addition to the lower allston area. We stopped by for a late lunch on their opening day. There is a kiosk that you order at and they will text you when your order is ready. Everything is seamlessly contactless, very covid safe. I got the bulgogi rice bowl with a soft boiled marinated egg. Def get the egg, perfectly soft boiled. The veggies were fresh and crunchy. The bulgogi beef was tender. The only thing I would like is an option to add more sauce, they really don't give you enough. There is a few outdoor seating spots, no indoor dining yet. read more

A no go if you have garlic sensitivity. Even with no sauce, everything is doused with garlic. Otherwise it was tasty though.

Outstandingly good food! The flavors were so unique. I tried their Boston Market location for lunch the other day. The woman behind the counter recommended the spicy pork and it did not disappoint. Very friendly, I can't wait until I am in Boston again to get back there. read more

Went in for a quick bite after work and was not disappointed! Food was out within 10 minutes of waiting. Kalbi bowl: Kalbi was cut into cubes and was grilled nicely with a slight sweetness and rich flavor. Was not overly fatty which is what I prefer. Cucumber pickles were good. I wish there was another more astringent flavor in the bowl like some additional shredded spring onion on top to add to an already delicious bowl. Also providing more gochujang sauce would be nice as there is a lot of rice that is waiting to be drenched in sauce. Bulgogi bowl: I only had two bites of this but it was really good. This bowl had what seemed to be like a spicy mayo sauce and it was plentiful. The meat had less of a grill flavor to it but was still cooked well and I also enjoyed the vegetables included in the bowl. On average the bowls were in the $13-16 range which admittedly is a bit on the pricier side but the quality was good so I didn't mind paying that price. I think I would probably come back for the bulgogi bowl next time over the kalbi based on it being cheaper and comparable in quality to the kalbi. read more

Ordered here for lunch and had their spicy pork quesadillas which were actually surprisingly good, with a great spicy taste to them and full of flavor with some tasty dipping sauces. Cooked perfect and a very nice treat form this place. Not sure why the piled on scallions, but still not a bad dish at all from here. read more

I ordered the grilled pork belly and it was good, but I wish they cut it a little smaller like the picture. I think the restaurant can add more items to their menu as there is not much to choose from. The opening hours are also too short (2 hours) so if you want grab something to eat, you have to be there in time. read more

This place is super good. Stopped here on a rainy day. Ordered the quesadilla and the pork belly bowl and was amazed. It's hard to find good Korean fusion food that's done well. The sauce was immaculate and everything down to the rice was perfectly prepared. The only thing I would ask more of is more meat. When I was getting towards the end of my bowl the amount of rice I had left to meet was a little sad and I found myself wishing I had a handful more of meat. Other than that this place is fantastic and the staff is super friendly and they have a cute outdoor eating area. read more

Extremely overpriced, over $10 for 2 small ice creams that really weren't anything special. You can get 2 pints of Ben and Jerry's for slightly less, and it's way better. Skip this place and get some B&J's from the star market next door if you're craving ice cream. Also, for food, all but one menu options were based on pork just FYI. I love ice cream and Korean food but you can do wayyy better than this. Thought I would love this place but left extremely disappointed. read more

Amazing food quick service so tasty and healthy too! Had the bulgogi bowl and the pork bowl. Both were delicious!
