"ChefMichael Lewisoffers up a healthy take at this Asian barbecue spot in the hip Wynwood Arts District. Japanese-style wood tables geometrically arranged oppose raw concrete walls to give the space a warmth that’s uncommon in other “modern Japanese” restaurants, even without a lot of natural light. At night, soft mood lighting gives a cozy glow making it a great place for date night. KYU balances Asian-inspired seafood options like Florida red snapper or grilled octopus with vegetable dishes like grilled shishito peppers and kale nam prix (crunchy kale served with a chili pepper Thai hot sauce. The star of the show is a whole-roasted cauliflower served with shishito herb vinaigrette—it’s a crowd pleaser for the whole table.251 NW 25th St, Wynwood." - ByAustin Langlois
