Food and drink were amazing. Alex's company at the bar was top notch, he made us feel as if we were at home. Thank you.

Not a good experience. The hosted didn't find my reservation and even though I was speaking to her in proper English, she kept answering me in Spanish... but I'm Italian and I didn't understand her answers! Lady Italian and Spanish are not the same language. After she finally found our reservation. Amazing food but horrible service and experience. Music was too loud and was impossible to keep a conversation.

The hostess was really amazing. She offered us two tables and they were right on point with food, service and ambience.

10/10 from the moment we walked in the door! 10/10 -Service was impeccable! Our server was attentive, polite and efficient. She provided recommendations and made sure to touch our table after each course was delivered to ensure we were satisfied and didn't need anything else. Kudos to the manager for accompanying the waitress when our entrees were dropped off to provide his pairing recommendations to enhance the flavor of our dishes ( lemon squeeze on the Bok Choy- PERFECTION!) 10/10- FOOD! We started with the Tuna Crispy Rice. I'm not a fan of Tuna however my partner loves it and we both thoroughly enjoyed this dish. The rice was nice, crispy and hot and presentation was great. The Beef Short Rib was absolutely the highlight of our mains. So juicy, perfectly seasoned and tender- just wow! This dish came with side pairings of 3 sauces, pickled onions, salt, pepper, lettuce and cilantro so that you could experiment and taste to your liking. You can't leave here without trying this. This is also a great entree to share as it is a considerable amount of meat. The Japanese sweet potato was a pleasant surprise. My partner wasn't sure of it when we first ordered but his thoughts changed immediately after the first bite. This was damn GOOD. The Bok Choy was fresh and very tasty and the Korean Fried Chicken had my partner in a chokehold. 7/10- DRINKS were good but a little weak. I had the Future of Ronin which was tasty and my partner had the Wynwood Mule. Very tasty but could've used an extra shot. 10/10-DESSERT WAS BOMB! We had the cinnamon roll and if I don't do anything else, I will be back for this! Don't skip out on dessert here like ever! Overall our experience was top tier here and is HIGHLY recommended! We will def be back!

My girlfriends and I came here for dinner before we had to catch a flight. Service was fantastic and quick. Our short rib was excellent, melted in your mouth and tasty. I loved the refreshing lettuce wrap and sauce variety as well. Tuna crispy rice was also delicious and fresh, I highly recommend.
For the sweet potato, the table was split, I personally did not enjoy the cheese with the sweet potato but others have, so it’s up to you to try. The fried rice was not popular amongst us, for $32, it’s very pricey and not that special. The hard texture of the rice was also not pleasant.

I’ve been here twice, and both times the service was abysmal - inattentive, slow, and unhelpful.
The food is okay, not worth an hour+ wait.. especially when the group I am with is spending tons of $$ on the corporate dime.
Hard pass on this place…

My Girlfriend and I went to this location for the cinnamon roll that went viral recently. Though looking through the menu, we decided to only get what we came for at the moment. Usually servers roll their eyes and are annoyed when a table skips the dinner and gets the dessert. Our server, the taller gentleman with the beard was super helpful and informative when asked some questions. Kudos to him for staying on top and being mindful of any possible food allergies. We didn’t feel rushed or treated differently for our relatively small order. Speaking of, the Cinnamon Roll lived up to the hype! So good ! We’re looking forward to coming back and having dinner here soon.

Horrible food and subpar alcohol menu. Everything was over salted and oily. Slow service. Our waiter couldn’t hear our order. Drinks had barely any alcohol in them and took forever. Wait for the bathroom unnecessarily long. Because sinks are inside the stalls thus slowing down the line. Overall huge disappointment!!!!! Overpriced garbage.
Every time I eat here I’m more and more impressed. Such outstanding food

This place is the epitome of a restaurant built for Instagram, not for actual dining. It’s clear they’ve catered to influencers (other 5 star reviews and influencer party going on when I attended) rather than focusing on the service. The menu is $22 cocktails and $40 Korean fried chicken. Host was rude. Didn’t honor reservation. Orders forgotten. All while spending hundreds of dollars to be there.
Pedro the GM seemed more interested in winning an argument than being in hospitality and being hospitable. Combative, rude and aggressive towards our party.

If you're looking for a culinary adventure, Kyu NYC is the place to be! I finally checked it out, and wow—it did not disappoint. Originally from Miami's Wynwood district, their wood-smoked and wood-grilled Asian dishes are an absolute flavor explosion. Every bite felt like something new and exciting. The blend of exotic ingredients and smoky techniques made the entire meal unforgettable. Now I get why it's James Beard-nominated and a Time Magazine winner! If you're a foodie like me, this spot is a must-visit in the heart of NYC.

I am always so shocked when I hear people haven’t heard of this place. From the fun, lively atmosphere to the delicious food, this is a go-to for anyone looking for a vibey night in Manhattan. I recommend going with a group of people just so you’re able to have more of a variety. The must haves are the kale chips, the cauliflower, and the fried chicken. And the filet mignon was so perfect with its own little flair. To make this place even better, they have an unmatched Happy Hour where you can get the kale chips, crispy rice, and a selection of cocktails. Can’t wait to try the Miami location!
