Steven Han and executive chef and partner Billy Beach welcomed media members to the opening of their newest Japanese restaurant, Kushibar, on August 27. The new Belltown restaurant, located at 2319 Second Avenue, features grilled foods, noodle dishes, beer, sake, and cocktails. Lovers of the less-well-known cuts of meat will appreciate offerings such as beef tongue and heart, chicken cartilage and gizzards, and pigs’ feet. More conventional offerings include fried squid and tofu, edamame, yaki soba, and ramen. 

A large outdoor patio, complete with overhead heaters, promises streetside dining year-round.
