Rooftop Restaurant Celebrating Peruvian-Japanese Cuisine Arrives on Fifth Avenue - Eater San Diego
"The highest-profile opening since the return of dine-in service in San Diego is scheduled for Tuesday, June 23 when Lumi by Akira Back touches down in the Gaslamp. Spanning a 5,000-square-foot rooftop, the restaurant is the first activation within a new 15,000-square-foot, multimillion hospitality development at the corner of Fifth Avenue and J Street, which is being operated by RMD Group. Lumi is the first local project for acclaimed chef Akira Back, whose portfolio of eateries runs the global gamut from San Francisco to Saudi Arabia and Dallas to Dubai; his restaurant Dosa, in Seoul, Korea, was awarded a Michelin star in 2018. Designed by Davis Ink., with an outdoor bar area constructed from large granite boulders with live greenery overhead, all of Lumi’s seats are in the open air. The restaurant and bar will be open for dinner nightly, with hours starting at noon on Saturday and Sunday and extending until 2 a.m. on weekends." - Candice Woo
