Finding the restaurant was remarkably seamless-every instruction was precise, clear, and thoughtfully laid out. (Thanks to Ven) Simply following the steps brought me straight to the door without a hint of confusion, which already spoke volumes about the level of care behind this place.

And once inside, everything unfolded with an elegance that lingered long after the meal ended.
The food was exceptional in a way that felt both refined and deeply personal. Each dish carried intention, restraint, and quiet confidence. With the menu changing each season, I found myself already imagining future visits, curious to see how the chef will reinterpret the ingredients and narratives of each new moment in time.

Restaurant Ki is an experience rarely found in Los Angeles- every detail, from the pacing to the pairings to the smallest visual nuance, was executed with an almost obsessive precision. In such a short period, it became unmistakably clear how this restaurant earned its Michelin recognition. You can feel the chef’s unwavering dedication and perfectionism in every gesture, every bite, every interaction.

I dined alone this time, yet the experience left such a profound impression that I couldn’t stop thinking of the people I love. It’s the kind of place you want to share- one that you hope everyone dear to you can experience at least once.

Husband and I came here to celebrate good friend’s birthday. Words cannot describe how impressed I was by Chef Ki and his wonderful team. They’re incredibly talented and kind. Every dish was a work of art and we were blown away by the attention to detail. The wine pairing was one of the best I’ve seen. The atmosphere was relaxed yet refined. Chef Ki also has the most adorable utensils. My husband is allergic to a few things and the team was very kind about accommodating too. We will try and get a reservation here every time we’re in LA!

Restaurant Ki offers a modern take on upscale Korean food. Chef Ki perfectly balances new and traditional ingredients to create a truly fantastic dining experience.

We got to enjoy the tasting menu which changes frequently. Each dish was beautifully prepared with imaginative style and ingredients. We chose to do the optional drink pairing and each course was perfectly paired with wine and sake.

There was so much artistry and attention to detail in everything from the food to service to the drink pairing to the dining space and art work surrounding it. We were able to talk with Chef and the staff the entire time and ask questions along the way which really made for a fun and approachable environment.

Overall this was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had I recent memory. We loved Kinn before it closed and we are happy to see Chef Ki back in this new space continuing to create delicious food and beautiful experiences.

Incredible food, staff, and vibes! Such a fresh and innovative take on Korean food. I’ve done a decent amount of fine dining in my time, but this was such an experience! The staff and the environment really bring out the best in everyone including the other guests. Highly recommend for anniversaries, birthdays, and any other events. Definitely coming again, thanks for the good times and great music chef Ki.

Best restaurant of the year!

Amazing experience, fantastic food, wonderful staff.

Arrive early and have the instructions handy on how to find the restaurant.

The drink pairings are so good, very high quality and unique.

I could taste the spirit of korean cooking in each bite.

I am glad I got a chance to try this amazing restaurant before they get their star.

Dining at Restaurant Ki was nothing short of magical. From the moment you step through the hidden entrance inside Bar Sawa, you feel transported into an intimate, exclusive world where every detail has been meticulously thought out.

Chef Ki Kim’s modern Korean tasting menu is an unforgettable journey—each course a perfect harmony of flavors, textures, and artistry. Dishes like the shirako gimbap with truffle rice and the crispy octopus with gochujang cream not only amazed my palate but also told a story of Chef Ki’s creativity and deep respect for ingredients.

What truly sets this experience apart is Chef Ki himself. His warmth, humility, and passion for his craft shine through in every bite and every interaction. It’s rare to find a chef who can balance world-class technique with genuine hospitality, but Chef Ki does exactly that.

Restaurant Ki is more than just a meal—it’s an experience that lingers in your memory long after the last course. A well-deserved Michelin star, and I can’t wait to return!!

Top notch Korean food. On par with any of the top Korean restaurants in NYC. I was at Jungsik two months ago and Chef Ki is not far behind.
