Review: Benu

The open courtyard right in front of Benu’s entrance.
After spending countless hours reading articles and watching Youtube videos on Corey Lee’s acclaimed restaurant in SF’s tech district, I could hardly wait to eat here. Benu’s concept is Asian fusion, which is an area that has seen a lot more failures than successes, so it was exciting to see that Chef Lee has not only re-invigorated this cuisine but was also awarded his third Michelin star in 2014. After scoring reservations two months prior, I finally had the pleasure of dining here on April 8, 2016.
