"While not listed on any exterior signage, this Japanese Whisky bar adjacent to Kado No Mise is hidden in plain sight upstairs and across from the chef’s counter. It’s a chic and intimate L-shaped bar beautifully showcasing rare, premium Japanese whiskies, lit beautifully to appear as though they are glowing. Though its function is to showcase the whisky, the bar also serves stunning signature cocktails, sake, and wine, and, unlike its sibling restaurant, is open for walk-ins." - Natalia Mendez
"As Kado no Mise’s Japanese whisky bar, Gori Gori Peku will host a special cocktail menu crafted by Tomoiki Sekine of Nokishita711 during the February dinners, offering a focused bar program tied to Sekine’s experimental approach." - Justine Jones
"Gori Gori Peku is just one-third of downtown Minneapolis’s finest Japanese dining experience: Omakase prix-fixe restaurant Kado no Mise and Kaiseki Furukawa, which offers an immersive 10-course seasonal tasting menu, are located in the same building. Gori Gori Peku is dimly lit and intimate, dressed in all the classic moody tones of a whisky bar. The selection of premium Japanese whisky is unmatched, and the bar also serves sake, wine, and more." - Eater Staff
"In the heart of the North Loop, ascend the stairs to find Gori Gori Peku, an upscale, intimate bar serving the finest Japanese whiskies and a comprehensive selection of spirits; I like to end the night with a two-finger pour of Nikka Coffey Malt whisky or drink as the Japanese do with a Suntory highball." - Eater
"I found that adjacent whiskey bar Gori Gori Peku is unchanged, and it's worth saving room for an after-dinner Japanese whisky upstairs at Gori Gori Peku." - Joy Summers
