The Best New Restaurants Around Boston, July 2025 | Eater Boston

"Blink and you’ll miss out on a reservation for Iru, Brookline Village’s buzziest new restaurant resident. The Korean spot comes from restaurateur Hajime Yamazaki, who uses his mother’s recipes to tell heartwarming stories of Korea’s culinary history. The can’t-miss dish here is the samgyetang, a warming ginseng and rice-stuffed chicken soup that is served as a shared meal for the table. (Note: The restaurant is temporarily closed in June while Yamazaki is traveling.)" - Erika Adams
