My husband and I went to Miss Kim for the first time tonight after a recommendation on the Find Me Gluten Free app.
I have very symptomatic celiac disease. So much so that we rarely get to eat out anymore, the anxiety of worrying about whether something is safely prepared or whether they understand what gluten is, and then having to convey that my reaction isn’t just a tummy ache, I’m just trying not to spend the night in the ER is just… a lot.
The menu is 90% GF. You have to go out of your way to even eat gluten. AMAZING.
Pro tip: Make a reservation, any day of the week. This was our first experience and we didn’t know any better. The hostess (I didn’t get her name) was so friendly and helpful. She was able to get us 2 spots at the bar and we were seated within 15-20 mins.
The bartenders, Grace and Julien. 10/10 - Fantastic recommendations, drinks, and exceptional service. They were so kind. Grace even took the time to go over allergy things with me on a Friday night. I don’t know if I have the words to accurately express what that meant to me. Thank you, Grace. Truly.
The food, what an experience! Everything was delicious. We ordered the fried kimchi, braised short rib, fried tofu, and rice. I had to force myself to stop eating, it was all so good. 10/10
There is something so special about this place, the people, the food - we will be back! (With a reservation next time!)
