About Kin Gin

Kin Gin is a must-visit restaurant in the LES food scene. The incredible food, curated with perfect flavors, will leave guests speechless. The sashimi melts in the mouth, while the Kanpachi and dry-aged whole mackerel are unforgettable main dishes. The Miso Zuke Hijiki is a must-try, and the sweet potato crème brûlée is a heavenly dessert. The service is top-notch, with staff remembering returning guests and taking time to introduce the menu from start to finish. The restaurant has a vibrant yet polished atmosphere, though there is room for improvement in space partitioning. The menu features modern Japanese-inspired dishes with creative twists, such as Hamachi Crudo with avocado puree, jalapeños, and citrus sauce, and Crispy Fried Squid served with zesty aioli and pickled vegetables. The Clams with Toasted Bread are fresh and briny, cooked in a rich broth perfect for dipping. Charred Brussels Sprouts with almonds and a slightly sweet glaze add a crunchy, smoky touch, and the Grilled Mackerel is cooked to perfection—flaky, tender, and bursting with smoky flavor. The Baked Sweet Potato Dessert, with powdered sugar and crispy garnish, manages to be both comforting and sophisticated. Guests often praise the drinks, especially the cocktails like the recommended blood orange G&T, and the wine pairings. Whether on a date night or dining solo at the bar, Kin Gin offers a fresh, well-presented seafood experience in a relaxed yet refined setting. Although the restaurant is still finding its crowd, its high-quality dishes and attentive service make it worth the visit. Many guests are already looking forward to their next trip there. Kanpai!
