Palilgu

Super GemLogan Square · Korean Community-sourced, unverified
📍 2115 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60647

Palilgu runs the kind of Korean menu built as much around what's in your glass as what's on the plate — premium soju, makgeolli, and a rotating list of Korean-influenced craft cocktails and beers sit right alongside the bold, spicy modern-and-traditional cooking.

$$$
A widely-praised seafood scallion pancake, paired with a real Korean drinking program (premium soju, makgeolli, Korean-influenced craft cocktails).

Reviewers keep coming back to the seafood scallion pancake as the dish worth ordering first, in a Logan Square room that leans into genuine hospitality — diners specifically call out the service as a reason to return, not just the food.

It's attentive enough that during the 2026 World Cup, the restaurant restructured its own seating around match broadcasts rather than just running business as usual — a small sign of a kitchen and staff that actually pay attention to what their regulars care about.
