About Kumiko
Dark wood, low light, and the kind of quiet that makes you lean in closer. This West Loop cocktail bar treats Japanese flavors with dead seriousness — yuzu, shiso, toasted rice — built into drinks that are genuinely surprising, not gimmicky. It costs real money and the space is small, so don't roll in with six friends expecting a party. Go with one person you actually want to talk to, and let them pour the omakase cocktail tasting.
Summary
Creative Japanese fare & craft drinks, including an omakase cocktail tasting, presented in hip digs.
