Welcome to Krill, where the vibrant atmosphere sets the mood for bold Southeast Asian flavors. Executive Chef/ Partner, Jason Lawless' Southeast Asian-inspired dishes are served with fun, funky twists, paired alongside fresh, creative cocktails and a thoughtfully curated sake and wine program. Krill offers a theatrical setting that is signature to all Giorgios Hospitality Group restaurants- from the lemongrass and outdoor bamboo garden to the giant lanterns and colorful murals by local artist, Arianne Hemlein. Expect fresh, seasonal, local ingredients and house-made sauces and pastes. Looking forward to hosting you for some Far East flavors without boundaries!

“Bringing the food and culture of Southeast Asia and its coastal regions to life in a very funky and playful ‘Far East funk’ sort of way.” -Giorgios Bakatsias

    I reserved a table for the Kamayan meal for the Filipino night event. It was great especially because it was my first time introducing my friends to some food from my culture. It was a great conversation of what the meal means and what each dish on the big serving tray was. It was also my first time at this restaurant and it was on my list to go, but I never tried. This event definitely got me to want to come back and try their regular menu.

    I likely wouldn't return although the server was lovely. Limited menu + unavailable items meant one of us had few non-allergic options. Cocktail was good in theory but not in practice.

    Far East Funk = innovative and flavorful. Krill is an experience. The ambience is colorful and fresh. The food is creative. With a small menu, it’s still hard to chose what to order because it all sounds delicious, and it is all delicious, at least everything we ate was. You have to be prepared to overhear your fellow diner’s conversation. It’s small inside, but there are comfy pillows on the benches. The service is good: informative and friendly and careful of food allergies. We had fun eating there.

    Krill’s new menu is absolutely off the charts! I’ve had crudo at many restaurants, but the Tuna Kinilaw dish at Krill is the best I’ve ever had. As someone who is trying to abstain from alcohol, the new menu also brought on several delicious non-alcoholic mocktails! The only thing that surpassed the new flavors, was the hospitality I received; excellent service by the bartender, and even the manager, Jonah, came out and made me feel “at home”. Shot out to the chef, and the entire staff! Highly recommend!

    We had a wonderful experience at Krill. The food (ayam goreng, crab khao soi, and tamarind salmon sinigang) was amazing. I would 10/10 recommend this place for a quiet date night!

    Inauthentic and tasteless. The spices and flavors were unidentifiable as Khao Sui or green papaya salad. Not sure what the restaurant was trying to accomplish with these dishes. None of us finished our food. Expensive and disappointing. Beautiful space but did not live up to even basic expectations.
