L7 Chicago Hotel & Perilla Steakhouse Restaurant

overview

Located at 225 N. Wabash in Chicago, L7 Chicago by Lotte is the hotel renovation of an existing 100-year-old building, built above the preexisting Chicago street elevation, and introduces the first North American branded L7 hotel. The scope of work includes a complete lobby renovation and restaurant build-out of Perilla Steakhouse, alongside a renovation of the hotel's 191 guestrooms and corridors.

At the heart of the property is the Perilla Steakhouse restaurant, a modern take on the classic Chicago steakhouse with a distinct Korean American twist. The restaurant honors the city’s iconic steakhouse roots while offering a fresh approach including custom table-side grills at each table. The space brings warmth with elements of Korean architecture, creating a dining experience for guests that feels unique, vibrant, and engaging.
