Fodor's Expert Review Kumi Japanese Restaurant + Bar
Kumi presents a Japanese menu with a slight Korean twist in a sleek space with natural woods and hammered steel. Among the cool shared plates are a bluefin tuna pizza and steak tartare with Japanese milk bread; the warm shared plates highlight dishes like Wagyu gyoza and pork belly bao buns. There also are salads, sides, entrées from land (chicken katsu) and sea (pan-seared ora king salmon), rice and noodles dishes, sashimi, nigiri sushi, and sushi rolls. Two tasting menus are available, showcasing dishes like Jidori chicken with kimchi Brussels sprouts and hirame carpaccio with dried shallots, as well as more conventional tataki, tempuras, and a wide variety of sushi.
