Nuri Grill

Wonderful dinner for our anniversary.
Drinks we great and meat choices were awesome.
My wife had the lobster and loved it. There was a live DJ playing 90s throwbacks so was different.
Place had a nice energy and everyone was friendly and helpful.
Was nice to have some Soju as we hadn’t had any in a while.
They brought us a complementary dessert for us since it was out anniversary-was a nice personal touch. Really enjoyed our experience and cant wait to come back!

Owner response

We were really excited to eat at Nuri based on different reviews and recommendations.
It was a toss up between 5 stars and 4 stars, so let me explain the positives and the reason for 4 stars: Positive: beautiful restaurant with very professional waitstaff.
Korean restaurants are usually know for bad service and this isn’t that.
But there were also no Korean waitstaff.
The kimchee fried rice was one of the best I’ve had.
Chunky steak and very nice flavour overall.
We ordered the Nuri chef special.
Reasonable price at $39/person and if you are not a big eater, the quantity is perfect.
Quality of the meat was excellent and juicy. Negatives to bring it down from 5 stars to 4 stars: the soup was beyond salty.
I love eating my Korean stews but I couldn’t take more than 2 bites of the soup.
Korean food is known for their side dishes.
Often this is what separates good from great Korean restaurants.
The side dishes at Nuri were average at best. Would I recommend Nuri? Absolutely…hopefully they can continue to fine tune some aspects to be amazing.

I frequent a lot of Korean BBQ restaurants.
As far as meat quality goes I would rank this as one of the tops, quite excellent.
This I would classify as upper scale for a Korean BBQ place.
Service was good, slightly slow getting our check at the end but no complaints about anything else.
They were extremely busy.
General manager introduced himself and the layout of the restaurant was elegant and upscale.
Only reason I didn't rate it a 5 is the sides could have had a little more variety and with a table of 4 the quantity brought out was maybe for the amount of 2.
However they did bring more on request.
I do recommend this as an upscale date type environment.
It will be added to my regular rotation.
Well done to the owners and managers.
Thank you for a good experience.
