Where Eclecticism Reigns Supreme
Owners Karina Iglesias and Deme Lomas wanted to bring a bit of eccentricity to the Miami scene. They did this by opening Niu Kitchen, where they showcase their Catalan lifestyle to locals and visitors alike.
They love mixing the "local with the exotic," as well as the "seasonal with the sophisticated." This is shown through the décor, service, and food.
Unconventional Menu Options
Speaking of food, Niu offers top-quality regional ingredients. Every dish is inspired by Catalonia, but a creative twist is taken to everything on the menu.
The restaurant encourages you to order a meal without thinking. Close your eyes, point to the menu, and see if your finger lands on one of these dishes!
