It took one reel on IG and one glance at the menu pics to bring me here a few days later. A foodie and fellow Yelper on here posted a reel and the dishes not only looked appetizing but also beautifully plated, like art pieces. I didn't know they were located upstairs from Los Felix, a Michelin star restaurant whose owner also runs and owns this fine dining restaurant. Although menus are completely different, there's one thing in common...local organic and seasonal ingredients. It is quite a unique location because you have to walk through Los Felix and go upstairs to Krüs. Anyways, Kat, the sweetest, most cordial and warm waitress I've interacted with recently, was taking care of me and walking me through the menu. She was very knowledgeable, helpful and incredibly efficient. I came here with a few dishes in mind but they didn't have the scallops and the chitarra pasta dish changed quite a bit. Good thing I had a second option for both, the app and main dish so let's talk about these... CRUDO: tonight, yellowtail was the fish available for crudo and I wasn't mad about it. That finger line ponzu is to die for but, the pickled radish kind of killed it for me. The radish was good for presentation but the flavor wasn't right, at least not for me. Honestly, radish had a funky smell and taste to it so I just set it aside. Luckily for me, it didn't ruin the dish completely because of the ponzu and because the fish was, without a doubt, fresh and thinly sliced. The portion was very generous which was surprising to me because restaurant nowadays are skimping on portions left and right. Overall, it was one good dish but I'm sure scallops would've been better. One good reason to come back. BURRATA: that sun dried tomato jam and lemongrass oil alone were perfection. Again as with the crudo, this pickled melon threw me off a bit but this time I think is just a matter of preference or taste. The Burrata was to die for and that almost intentionally burned and super toasty sourdough bread was phenomenal. LOBSTER CHITARRA: as I mentioned before, they're no longer serving the rock shrimp and Kat mentioned they were doing lobster instead. By now I was on my third glass of wine on almost empty stomach so please forgive me for not remembering exactly what the sauce was but it was something like a saltier teriyaki or a sweeter soy sauce and a bit thicker than soy sauce; best I can do to explain but delicious nonetheless. Perfectly cooked chunks of lobster meat sitting on al dente chitarra pasta swimming on that sauce. This is one dish I'd order again for sure. CHOCOLATE: rich decadent chocolate custard, I believe, with hazelnut crumble for some crunchiness, raspberries and dehydrated mucilage was the perfect combo. Something about berries and chocolate that just go together every time. I really want to come back for the scallops and perhaps that ragú pasta that's a fan favorite; maybe even that bone marrow pudding I saw on the reel. The joint has a romantic, intimate feel to it for the lovers out there. Street parking and private parking lots in the area for your convenience. read more

Though this place is smaller than I was expecting is still comfortable and nice. It is located at the second floor of Los Felix in Coconut Grove. We order the egg sandwich, nothing special. Just a sandwich with eggs and avocado. We didn't feel the truffled sauce/oil that our server told us that comes with it. Then we ordered the smoke coconut rice. This was the star of the day! Great combination of flavors with the crab, cilantro sauce and chives. It was really good. 100% recommended. It is a small plate. So, if you are hungry, you will need to order something else. We also ordered the hamburger. It was good but for a 28 dollars hamburger I would expect something else. We finish with a very good dessert, the olive oil cake with ice cream, natural raspberries and blueberries. Amazing! Really good. The 3 stars is because of the prices. I think that is a little bit expensive for what you get and the service was average. Hope the can continue improving. read more

Interesting place, the upstairs seating with a skyline is much nicer than the downstairs area. Delicious, old school fare with an innovative twist, great ingredients and presentation. I really enjoyed my agave Bellini. The wait staff is friendly and accommodating, the only minus is that the individual dishes come out too far apart of each other. read more

Such a vibe. My friend and I had reservations for an early dinner before catching a Heat game. Restaurant was virtually empty at this time, though it was perfect to take in the ambience and watch the sun set out through the vast windows. Both the chef and owner came out to explain the food as well as check up and converse with us. This definitely elevated the experience. Really appreciated that. The owner also explained how several of the ingredients were sourced. We could tell how much effort was put into the restaurant as a whole. The coconut rice was my absolute favorite - it's light yet hearty. Classy yet comforting. Did not even snap a picture of it because it was cleared in a hot second. The staff at Krus took such good care of us that anything could have tasted good. Luckily, the flavors match the aesthetics. Even more so, I can see why they have a Michelin Bib Gourmand. read more

Small, quaint restaurant in Coconut Grove with interesting dishes. Each dish was filled with unique and different flavors. I ordered the Krus Bread, Grilled Okra, Oyster Mushrooms, Smoked Coconut Rice, Agnolotti, and Chitarra. The Grilled Okra, Oyster Mushrooms, and Agnolotti were my favorite dishes of the night. I would recommend ordering the Agnolotti if you enjoy a smoky flavor. The service was good and the food is very fresh. Overall, good experience. read more

Came here for date night with my boyfriend. We loved the ambiance, the tables were lowkey and lit with real candles. For food we started off with the burrata and smoked coconut rice. The burrata came with pickled melon which was a very pleasant surprise. It was delicious! The rice was great, 10/10 recommend. We then had the grilled salad and Tagliatelle. The grilled salad was a little salty but it's normal due to the sardines. The tagliatelle was good. The pasta definitely tastes fresh however, the oxtail seemed to be missing just a tad of salt. We drank Glatzer all night. It's a white wine from Austria. The service was amazing. Our waitress was the best and her attention to everything made the experience even better. 20% gratuity is added on the checks which she and the rest of the team completely deserved. Check this place out! read more

This is the place to come if you like unique dishes with distinctive flavors. Everything is small plates. I would suggest two plates per person and share everything so you can try it all. Everything is delicious and unlike anything you've ever tasted before. I tried the burrata, scallops, coconut rice, and cabbage. When each dish is served, they explain all the particular ingredients. Who knew you could make cabbage scrumptious? To drink, I had the amalfi spritz, which was refreshing with just the right amount of kick. To complete our meal, we had to try the bone marrow pudding. It is flambeed at the table, and the flames are then doused with ice cream. I can hardly begin to describe it. You must try it! The service was fantastic and the space is light and airy. The sun streams through the glass rooftop, giving one the feeling of being outdoors while allowing you to avoid that Miami heat. They change their menu on occasion. I can't wait to see what unusual dishes they come up with next! read more

Food was ok, prices were high and we were interrupted at least 3 times so they could grab the wine that is stored next to some if the tables which honestly i found not ok and annoying. Our order - burrata - was really good - crudo- not good at all - coconut rice crab - idea is great but failed execution it was too bland and underwhelming - catch of the day - not much flavor - lamb - along with burrata inly dish I thought was good Overall I am glad I checked it off my list of places but would not come back read more

Horrible burger. Wet and soggy bun. The lobster roll did not have lobster. All other dishes also mediocre. The service mediocre , in a party of seven one meal at a time with a long pause in between. The bathroom dirty. Giving a one star because could not do worse. read more

Cool spot. It gets a lot of foot traffic. So the concept is interesting as there are two places in one. So we decided on Krus Kitchen. I wouldn't really know how to classify the kind of food they make but it really did t matter. We are wine drinkers so of course we wanted to give one of their natural wines a try. If you are unfamiliar with natural wine, it just means there is nothing added during the production of the wine. So colors of certain kinds of wine you might find peculiar. But all in all they can be very good. We started off with the grilled egg plant. It was not my thing. It wasn't bad at all but my taste buds were not having it. I found it to be on the sweet side which I could attribute to the dates. I do like dates but for me this wasn't working. My wife enjoyed it. We also shared the roasted cauliflower. This was fantastic. It was crunchy and smoky, packed full of flavor. And it was quite the generous helping. Definitely recommend it. Our main dish was the half chicken. Also fantastic. Juicy and delicious. Another hit I would definitely recommend. The staff was friendly. My only complaint was that they seems to disappear on us. They took our order, brought us our wine, brought us some water and then were kind of non existent. It took us a while to get a water refill. The only other staff we saw were the food runners. So, if they could work on that, then they would get 5 big stars from me. read more

JUST WOW! You have to come and definitely check this place. It is a very small and cozy restaurant upstairs from Los Felix is. They accommodated our table of 6 people and we were so happy with the service. They took really good care of us. Since we were so many we were able to get the whole menu. Is usually around 2/3 plates per person. And honestly I was just amazed with one plate to another. My ultimate favorite was the burruta and the mushrooms. Please come here. Is about $150 per person I would say. read more

Was just great and came totally unexpected. Ordered additional dishes after having them as table wanted more of the same.

A menu inspired my local catches and seasonal ingredients you won't want to miss. I absolutely loved the squash toast and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. Although since it is a seasonal menu I don't know how long it will be available. Which makes every experience here different. Feel free to ask about different wines as they carry a wide variety of delicious unique wines. Sit and eat or take some home with you, I can't wait till they fully open their market and restaurant. read more

Overall a good experience. Staff was polite. However, it got more difficult to get simple things like beverage refills as the meal went on. The food was special and delicate. Vegetables were grown from a local farm. The biggest issue I had was that the Emilian ragu was way too al dente for me. Definitely the firmest and most undercooked noodles I have ever had, not in a good way. So if there was any way to ask for the pasta to be cooked more thoroughly ahead of time, I would think I would have actually enjoyed the dish. But as is at that level of al dente, I would not recommend that dish. The pasta in the agnolotti was also al dente, but not as much as the Emilian ragu pasta. Would also ask for it to be cooked through more of i could do it over again. read more

The menu and wine program here offer some of the most unique items you'll find in any S. FL restaurant. Combined with excellent, friendly, and knowledgeable service, this is sure to please anyone looking for something different and delicious! Obviously There is great effort to curate fresh and local ingredients, and there is an equally great effort to create well crafted, innovative, delicious dishes with them. From, salads, to vegetables, scallops, coconut rice, pastas, and every plate from the limited menu , there is a wow factor from the flavors and combinations. Highly recommended!! read more

Amazing food, great quality of ingredients, and a nice location ambiance. Highly recommended!

Hard to believe I am the first Yelp reviewer when this take out spot is so good. It took me way too long to get there but glad we did. This is a take out spot in the heart of the Grove with four-five tables only. Look for the heavily branded double doors with the high top table in front. The menu changes weekly so make sure to check the website. I had the grouper and the broccolini. Both were beautifully prepared. Not overly seasoned or sauced just good food. My hubby had the pastrami sandwich which he really liked. Next time I need to taste their creative wine selection. Their wines are natural, organic. Also on the website is their market shop. I didn't know this and if the cilantro chimichurri is the same one they used with the grouper I'm going back now. We are all looking for great take out options and this is one of the best! read more

Not good. Food quality is average, and the prices are ridiculously high. We spent $150 per person, and left hungry. This place will not be there for long. read more

I'm not the best food photographer. I only took these 2 actually cause I wouldn't stop eating. My advice is take the lamb, take the mushroom, the fish crudo is also amazing. The pasta dishes are good but not my favorites. I also recommend the burrata. Service is great, the vibe on the place on a Saturday night was really nice too. Maybe the music is a little too loud. But overall is a great place to hangout. read more

This approach to find dining has taken a clear stance on their prioritization of what Farm to Table Dining is really all about. We used Resy to secure our table for a weeknight dinner of gourmet dishes unlike anything I've ever tried. We started off with the sourdough bread paired with brown butter and anchovy, black garlic and course salt. All the flavors seemed to truly compliment each other quite interestingly. Then we went with the Day's Crudo with wasabi radish, finger lime ponzu, bonito, and avocado. The vibrant notes of the floral and tangy notes really elevated the texture of the fish and brought out its full flavor profile within each bite. Shortly afterwards, we divulged into the creamy Oyster Mushrooms served with potatoes, red miso, quinoa and green onions. The texture and quality of the mushrooms really showcased their capabilities. Every bite just kept getting better and better. We also split the coconut rice topped with wild-caught crab, cilantro aioli and chives for a texture and taste unlike anything you've ever had. The menu here is no joke so come prepared to order and try creative renditions in a freshly vivid presentation that's sure to catch your attention. Our last entree was the Emilian Ragú made with grass-fed beef cheeks, bone marrow, and parm reggiano. While I do wish it was served warmer-the flavor profiles are intriguing in such a delicate way. For dessert, we had the Seasonal Granita which is shaved ice with star fruit, coconut cream, and canistel. I'm not a dessert person usually but for dining like this-you gotta pull out all the works. I will certainly return with more friends to share these amazing dishes with. Everything was spectacular and I'm glad I came. read more

Great service! Beautiful atmosphere! Came here for lunch and thought my ceviche was one of the freshest and tastiest in Miami! It was a grouper in a coconut milk base with pineapple served with fresh crispy chips. My vegetable sandwich was sooooo delicious! It was filled with thoughtfully cut and roasted veggies with an umami of flavor. Even my carnivorous husband liked it. He ordered the porchetta sandwich and while it was good some bites were better than others. It's really surprising that in Miami, lechón capital, we can't find a place that knows how to perfectly roast pork so that it's juicy on the inside but crispy(not rubbery) outside. It was still good but probably won't order that again. Overall it was a great experience and we will be back! read more

Prior to visiting Krüs Kitchen, i didn't know about this restaurant and didn't know what was about to be introduced to my tastebuds. I was BEYOND IMPRESSED with everything about this spot. Everything was so delicious and FAR from bland. There was so much flavor in each dish which hits you by surprise with each first bite. The menu is more so designed for sharing so i would recommend getting multiple plates and sharing among the party. That way you can try a little bit of everything and introduce new flavors to your palate. Krüs Kitchen gives the vibe of "Smooth Operator" by Sade and makes you feel like you're living in the song. And finally, our waitress was very accommodating because our party consisted of two elderly adults. Our waitress (Nadine) was the best and helped us with everything that my grandmother needed. We left Krüs Kitchen with nothing but full bellies and happy faces. read more

Surprisingly, it was Valentine's Day and we were able to get a 7:15 reservation, the day of! Exciting! We arrived and were taken to our table upstairs which was quaint, cute with market items on the shelves next to our table. We started by ordering a bottle of wine, which they were out of. Sigh...not a good start, but not giving up. Then, I asked to taste one of their wines that's served by the glass to see if I liked it before ordering a bottle. They brought a taste and I let them know it would be fine. They filled our glasses, but when we finished, they asked if we would like another glass. I responded that I had wanted the bottle. The server was nice enough and ultimately didn't charge us for the two initial glasses although we can't be sure we were served a whole bottle. But, that's on me, I should have paid more attention. Next, we settled on a few plates. We ordered the Krüs bread (see photo-$16), grilled scallions ($26) and smoked coconut rice ($26) to start. Then we were told they ran out of the grilled scallions...double sigh-sigh (on a Tuesday at 7:15, when they open at 5:30). So, we decided on the day's catch crudo ($26). The Krüs bread was meh, along with the special butters. And let me just say that I love bread, all bread...and I love garlic...and anchovies. When the server came with the next dish, space was tight on the table. We picked up the remaining bread and were about to scoop up the butters so they could remove the plate for space and they took the dish before we could get the butter...ummm, excuse me. We had to stop them so we could get some of the remaining butter... the $16 bread and special butter. The other two dishes were plated beautifully and good, not excellent. Overall, not the best experience. It felt very Miami: mediocre service, decent food and over-priced. Maybe we ended up there on an off night, but not sure I'll give them another try. read more
