KICO Review


AMBIENCE

KICO interior design is clean and modern, with wooden tables, cushioned chairs, and simple black metal accents. There is a long bar counter in the middle of it with well-organised shelves of bottles and glassware. The seating areas have soft pendant lights that are used to provide warmth in the room during the evening. The walls have a subdued texture, which gives them a clean, modern appearance. The abundance of windows facing the entrance gives natural lighting during the day, making the space look open and bright. Altogether, the decor features wood, low-key lighting, and minimal furniture to create a comfortable yet elegant atmosphere. This ambience makes it a unique space among the best bars in Bengaluru.

KICO Food 


FOOD

The cuisine in KICO is globally inspired and has some elements of playful fusions. The restaurant kitchen is not limited to a specific cuisine. Rather, it investigates the tastes of different culinary customs and makes the food affordable and fulfilling. The menu also features small plates. Food items such as Peri-Peri Chicken Popcorn are crispy and spicy, and they are accompanied by garlic aioli to add heat to coolness. KICO Signature Wings are also a favorite with spicy hot sauce as a companion and a bold spice mix. The menu also explores the Asian and international influences. The Chicken Katsu Bao Slider has a Japanese-themed spin of having a crispy chicken cutlet placed into a soft steamed bun. At the same time, the Chicken Souvlaki Open Taco is a fusion of Mediterranean flavor and a street-food style. The seafood lovers will have Banana Leaf Wrapped Pan-Seared Fish. In this case, the fish has been marinated in the fragrant spices and then cooked in the leaf to add extra flavor.
