South Tampa is one of our area’s hottest foodie destinations. A quick look at Tampa Magazine’s 2024 Best of South Tampa is testament to that.
Now, a new face has emerged: Kiwa Asian Kitchen. Located at 5415 Bayshore Blvd., the new spot offers sushi and Korean cuisine, with a menu full of tantalizing offerings. Here’s what we ordered at the grand opening:
- The Kiwa Roll was a highlight, with krab salad, tempura shrimp, avocado, spicy mayo, and eel sauce.
- A bowl of spicy Korean pork bulgogi, featuring a gochujang-based sauce, also hit the spot.
- For some local pride, we also ordered the Bayshore roll — made with tuna, salmon, tempura chips, and masago.
- And we took an Oreo-flavored boba tea to-go.
If you’re more of a visual learner, we posted the experience to Instagram, and it did not disappoint.
