Kyo Korean BBQ & Sushi House

Kyo Korean BBQ & Sushi House – There’s something for everyone!

South Granville is located mere minutes from downtown Vancouver, and is easily accessible from all over the Lower Mainland. South Granville is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Vancouver, and as such it is rife with history. You’ll find the Stanley theatre, one of Vancouver’s most iconic and historic buildings, mixed in with a myriad of more modern fare. This bustling neighbourhood is well-known for being one of Vancouver’s premier shopping districts. As you walk amongst the plethora of businesses you’ll find great boutiques, art galleries, restaurants and quaint little cafés. Nestled in the heart of it all is where you will find Kyo Korean BBQ & Sushi House.

The newly renovated restaurant opened in the summer of 2011, and features a bright and modern interior. Diners will be seated in a spacious and beautifully decorated dining area with an exquisite stone fire place as the center piece and delicate orchids lining the bay windows.

Natural light streams in from the large floor to ceiling windows and opens up the dining room area, providing diners with a relaxing atmosphere as they enjoy their meal. For those that enjoy watching their meal be put together, they can choose to be seated near the hustle and bustle of the sushi bar - where Kyo’s chefs prepare the fresh seafood, and put together delicate pieces of sushi.

Kyo provides two menu options for diners to choose from: an A-La Carte menu for those who know exactly what they want, and an All-You-Can-Eat menu for those who want a little bit of everything. The All-You-Can-Eat menu has a variety of Japanese and Korean appetizers such as tako and ebi sunomono or kimchi and sweet and sour radish. Kyo’s All-You-Can-Eat menu also features an extensive selection of maki style sushi rolls as well as specialty rolls and cones. Some of the favourites are the Aburi Salmon and Aburi Hamachi. There’s also fresh salmon, saba, tuna and even tai sashimi as part of the All-You-Can-Eat menu.

If you are not a fan of sushi, fear not! Because Kyo’s All-You-Can-Eat menu offers deep fried or cooked dishes too, as well as a Korean barbeque option. The Korean barbeque option allows diners to get interactive with their dining experience. Each table is equipped with a Korean barbeque where they can grill their own food! For the ones that have a voracious appetite chicken, beef, lamb, and pork are readily available. The meat dishes are pre-marinated in savoury sauces, such as the black pepper beef short ribs and honey garlic pork. If meat is not your thing, there is also a variety of seafood fit for grilling too! There are also vegetable options like eggplant and zucchini for those that want to balance out their meal.

If you’re looking for a place to accommodate large parties and special events, Kyo has three Japanese style rooms and a very large VIP room that can sit up to 50 guests comfortably. The VIP room is great for hosting special events such as birthdays, anniversaries, corporate dinners and just about any kind of large social gathering.

The next time you’re in the neighbourhood, go and watch a show at the Stanley Theatre then grab a bite at Kyo Korean BBQ & Sushi House. The best part about Kyo is that there’s something for everyone!
