Just saw this. We were at the end of Oct. Meal was mostly very good indeed but a few misses along with the hits, dishes are still evolving. Unfortunately (for them, not us) was outshone by Oriole the next night which was stunning, absolutely consistent, terrific food and a more elevated experience (and bill!!).
My experience with Parachute was terrible. The nicest thing I can say about the place is I think that the silverware was clean. Way too loud, cramped, poor/indifferent service (the server did a terrible job describing the dishes and did not know the wine list), small portions, overuse of salt, meh flavors, poor value, etc.
Did I mention that the silverware was clean?
In all seriousness, I can only imagine that the reviewer was relatively unacquainted with Korean food because nothing about the place is exceptional, let alone Michelin worthy.
I agree. I only went to Parachute once. As Corey said, really loud and cramped. Probably one of the least comfortable restaurants I have been in. I thought some of the dishes were really good some were just OK. No way is it star worthy. Same goes for Longman and Eagle and Dusek’s
