Nuri Steakhouse in Dallas is a stunning fusion of Asian and American flavors, offering top-quality meats in a fancy setting with vibrant dishes that thrill.
"While it’s not straight Korean food, this steakhouse is one of the most notable fine dining Korean establishments in the country. The menu combines the expertise of chef Minji Kim and executive chef Mario Hernandez into a menu loaded with Texas steakhouse classics with Korean twists, Korean dishes, and Louisiana-inspired fare. The dining room is out of the world, costing a reported $20 million to pull together, from the custom-made wallpaper to the custom-designed dishes." - Courtney E. Smith, Didi Paterno
"What is there to say about Nuri that hasn’t already been said? How about this: it’s a damn good time. Sure it has amazing cuts of steak that are expertly prepared. Yes, it has an East meets West style menu that is fun and is a first in town by integrating South Korean traditions into Texas steakhouse standards. And sure it’s expensive. But honestly, it is such a very good time." - Courtney E. Smith
"East meets West in this steakhouse that brings together South Korean and Texas food, with just a dash of New Orleans thrown in, all to reflect owner and Smoothie King magnate Wan Kim’s life story." - Courtney E. Smith
"Nuri Steakhouse, opened by Smoothie King magnate Wan Kim, is a $20 million establishment in Dallas. Chef Mario Hernandez emphasizes using top-quality meats and produce from local sources, focusing on sustainability and ethical sourcing. The menu features unique dishes like a fusion of traditional Korean-style and Western-style steak tartare, utilizing ingredients from local farms like Profound Farms and 44 Farms. The restaurant also offers Heartbrand Reserve Texas Akaushi beef and other premium meats, alongside Korean-inspired dishes like mac and cheese with gochujang and kimchi, and a unique take on New Orleans-style maque choux corn. Nuri Steakhouse is a tribute to Wan Kim's life, incorporating elements from his other ventures, such as the Korean barbecue restaurant Joa Grill. The dessert menu includes items like dobarge layer cake and bananas foster, with a Texas twist." - Courtney E. Smith
