Kima

Wonderful Greek restaurant with the focus on sea food. We had a large wild madai (Japanese red snapper), which was split into a several course meal containing a soup, crudo, grilled spikes and fillet with thoughtful sides. Really enjoyed the food, the staff was friendly, great atmosphere.

I visited in early April that my friends and I had been wanting to try for a while, and it had a rating of 4.9. We ordered the catch of the day sea bream three ways, plus tuna steak, T-bone, and some sides. 🌟 Fish Soup My personal favorite, a tangy fish soup that is like Tom Yum without the lemongrass flavor. 🌟 Raw Fish Thin slices of raw fish mixed with olive oil, slightly tangy seasoning. Although the taste was good, I found having two tangy appetizers in a row a bit boring. 🌟 Fricasse Fish fillet served on a bed of creamy mixed zucchini shreds. The first bite was good, but by the second bite, the flavors seemed to clash since there wasn’t a dominant taste. 🌟 Grilled Fish with Olive Oil Grilled fish head and tail with just olive oil for seasoning. 🌟 Aged Tuna Steak Smoked on the outside and rare on the inside, very tender and not fishy. However, the accompanying sauce didn’t quite match well. 🌟 T Bone Porter House 🌟 Long Beans and Tomatoes added some diversity to the meal, both were good 🌟 Mashed Potato The star of the table! I didn’t expect this side dish to be so delicious. Smoky and creamy, with a mustard seed sauce on top that added both texture and flavor. ✍️ Overall, perhaps my expectations were a bit high. Although there were no major disappointments, I wouldn’t revisit. The seafood was indeed very fresh, and the culinary method were fine, but the seasoning was not particularly impressive. The service was excellent, and I loved the macarons given after the meal, which reminded me of the ones from Pierre across the street.

We visited for a mid week dinner and while it was somewhat expensive, we were pleased with the food and service. I would return for the set lunch, which offers better value. Between the two of us, we had an oyster each (good) and then shared the taramas (great flavour), dolmadakia (nice) and we did the fin to grill experience with their catch of the day which was sea bream done three ways (carpaccio, collar, fillet grilled - all which was delicious and came with a side of long beans and tomato (such a good side) and fraicasse. I think it's better to come in a bigger group to try a bigger size fish and have more options for the catch of the days. For dessert we got the seaweed millefeuille which was interesting but tasty and we got the citrus curd and kaimaki ice cream plus macarons on the house which was a lovely touch. The service was very helpful, warm and friendly.
