"Opening this summer at 570 King Street, this new concept combines Mexican fare and sushi and is currently hiring servers, bartenders, cooks, and an assistant manager; signage is up and the opening is being teased on Facebook and Instagram. The developer, Republic Development and Management Group (RDMG), is marketing the spot for its high-energy atmosphere and the blending of food, art, and social engagement rather than focusing solely on the menu: diners are promised sushi and Mexican dishes served alongside original prints and artworks by well-known artists such as Alec Monopoly, Jeff Koons, Kaws, Hush, and Vhils. This is RDMG’s latest Upper King concept following Bourbon n’ Bubbles, with a third project on the block planned as a “premium sports pub” called 1st Place." - Erin Perkins
