Went for lunch. Ambient temperature was comfortable, natural lighting in the centre of the restaurant made for idyllic meal. Service was prompt (see below).
Menu was adequate, not too many options such that it left one bewildered. Sadly 3 options were not available, but we got the Basque Sausage (see below), baby squid (surprisingly good, and I don't like squid), razor clams (succulent), duck bao (loved the contrast in flavours and textures), and ravioli (balanced and nuanced flavours, good consistency).
Ordered 2 white wines (no 3 and no 4 on the wine by glass) and a red, all very good and rose to the flavours of the dishes.
Basque sausage: Was very tough, and even after they brought it back to cook some more, it was still a challenge. The staff noticed we didn't finish it, and struck it off our bill, saying they realised too it was v tough. So I would say on top of good service, service *recovery* was excellent as well.
Will definitely come again!
Tried Basque cuisine for the first time @ Kinou and was pleasantly surprised! Flavours & quality of dishes hit the spot for me - could tell that the team has place much thought into the menu. Would love to try out more of their food for sure.
Service & ambience were great too, a noteworthy place to wine & dine with friends!
Lovely establishment, very good ambience and top notch service! The food is AMAZING, I really fell in love with their tenderloin and a personal favorite dessert of mine, the Basque Cake! The staff were incredibly welcoming, and the chefs were so engaging to talk to even when they were so busy, I cannot thank the staff enough for the wonderful dining experience. 5 stars for sure!
