"Wero is this year’s situational swiss army knife. Only instead of coming in the clutch with tweezers and nail files, this Korean bar that specializes in ssam platters is handy for virtually any social scenario. Last minute group dinner, and one of your buddies is vegetarian and gluten-free? Easy. Solo highball and sweet-spicy wings at the bar with your laptop? Done. Third date cuddled up in a corner booth while you feed each other lettuce-swaddled hunks of melty pork belly dolloped with fermented bean paste? Get a room, but yes. It all works in the serene space, which is filled with steam from 24-hour butter-roasted potatoes. The excellent food and drinks are the cherry—er, the banchan on top." - aimee rizzo
