Fell in love with the aesthetic the moment we walked in! But that's because I'm an artist and I love what they've done with the wooden mannequins installed on the wall -- such an awesome art installation and focal point of the main dining room!
Me, my husband, and our friend came for dinner. I've had this place bookmarked for the longest time and when I found out they're offering Miami Spice, I figured let's finally give it a try. Y'all...
Do NOT sleep on that deal! One of the best Spices we've done this year! So good, we'd come again!
2 out of 3 of us did Miami Spice which was great because our friend did not have to feel obligated to choose off the smaller menu, but hubby and I definitely got our money's worth getting the heftier dishes.
For appetizers, we shared Creamy Mussels and Truffle Shiitake Croquettes off the Miami Spice menu and the Rock Shrimp from the main menu.
My hubby ordered the Filet Mignon Stroganoff, which was very creamy and meaty! Do not let that bread bowl deceive you... it's the right amount of bread to filling ratio haha. For someone who sometimes eats like he has a second stomach, even he didn't finish his dish (considering we were all sharing everything anyways) and he took the rest home for his work lunch the following day (which he said was also still very good, he just added rice to his leftover).
On the other hand, I had the Honey Miso Chilean Sea Bass which was DIVINE. I was dancing of happiness in my seat! Not only was it perfectly done, I was not expecting the hefty portion. Do NOT skip this during Miami Spice season!
Our friend ordered the Mushroom and Short Rib Flatbread, which may seem like a sharable but honestly it's big enough for one! But granted we were blessed with yummy and filling appetizers, even she could not finish so we helped her finish (perhaps that's also why hubby didn't finish his bread bowl haha). Sharing is caring!
Off the Spice menu, we got the Brioche Bread Pudding with Pistachio Cream and Kiwi along with the Basque Cheesecake. I will say, the Basque was not burnt enough but still tasted good. Brioche Bread Pudding was not what I expected in a bread pudding honestly but I still enjoyed it! It tasted more like ac crumble to me than a bread pudding. Off the regular menu, our friend ordered the Churros with Belgian Chocolate dip. We thoroughly enjoyed it for what it was! The right amount of crisp and the chocolate not overtly sweet, a great way to end our dinner!
Our experience did NOT end there. One of their managers came to our table to invite us to their lounge for a complimentary cocktail and also encouraged us to tour their speakeasy omakase. So after a filling dinner, we had a brief tour of their sushi spot which was very quaint and intimate and then went over for a free drink, where we socialized some more.
We were enjoying ourselves at RK for a good chunk of our evening and we would totally go back for the amazing service, delicious food and drinks, and the fun and eclectic vibes!
