A contemporary Japanese restaurant called Konban (235 Kent Ave.) is opening in the former home of Milu in Williamsburg.
Milu was a casual Chinese restaurant that abruptly shut down in January 2024, almost two years ago.
Konban currently runs one location in Manhattan, and the new Williamsburg outpost will be the brand’s second restaurant and first in Brooklyn. Konban is the sister restaurant of popular Manhattan handroll bar Domodomo.Â
