Nearly a year after announcing plans to strike out on his own outside of his famous father鈥檚 shadow, Bin An will swing open the doors Thursday to his upscale downtown Asian bistro.

MiAn Sushi & Modern Asian Cuisine, which is unaffiliated with An鈥檚 father Kwang C. An鈥檚 Oracle Road restaurant, will open for lunch at 11 a.m. Thursday, March 9, on the ground floor of 蜜柚直播 Electric Power company鈥檚 headquarters, 88 E. Broadway.

鈥淚鈥檓 excited,鈥� Bin An said Tuesday as his staff hosted TEP employees at a soft opening to iron out the kinks of running the nearly 5,000-square-foot restaurant. 鈥淭hings are going well.鈥�

MiAn Sushi鈥檚 upscale menu goes beyond the traditional array of sushi and sashimi, employing ocean trout, halibut, salmon and tuna. Appetizers include a shrimp toast topped with caviar, beef carpaccio, and a variety of poke bowls with salmon, scallops and other fresh fish.

Lunch prices run $9 to $14; dinner entrees average $13 to $18, with specialty items a bit pricier.

Chef Young Min Choi from Las Vegas鈥� high-end Japanese restaurant Nobu is the executive chef, bringing what An described as a 鈥淰egas feel鈥� to downtown 蜜柚直播 dining.

鈥淏y doing this as an upscale, nicer bar and restaurant, it makes it a cool spot for people to hang out and enjoy a different ambience ... more like a big city,鈥� An said. 鈥淲e want to bring in different flavors and different concepts to Asian dining.鈥�

MiAn seats 160 diners inside and 120 on the patio. Valet parking is available and there is off-street parking along Sixth Avenue, An said.

Beginning Thursday, hours are from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Fridays, 3 to 11 p.m. Saturdays and 3 to 10 p.m. Sundays.
