Exciting New Restaurant Opens in Bluffton: Kung Fu Cantina

Bluffton is buzzing with excitement as Kung Fu Cantina, a brand-new Latin + Asian fusion restaurant, prepares to welcome its very first diners next week! Located at 1553 Fording Island Road, Suite 302, this innovative eatery is set to open its doors for good on Thursday, September 12th, and food lovers can hardly wait!

A Unique Dining Experience

The creative minds behind this unique concept are restaurateurs Bill Alberts and Marshall Sampson, who also own popular venues on Hilton Head Island, including Santa Fe and The Bank. They wanted to create a menu that stands out in the Lowcountry, combining the vibrant zest of Latin spices with the intricate and subtle flavors found in Asian cuisine.

“Kung Fu Cantina began with the idea of creating a menu like no other in the Lowcountry,” said Sampson and Alberts. “The result is a menu where the cuisine blends the best of both worlds, creating a unique dining journey that delights the senses and celebrates the art of culinary fusion.”

Meet the Culinary Team

To bring this vision to life, the duo enlisted the help of seasoned culinary professionals: Chef Dave Strosnider, known for his expertise, and Sushi Chef Justin Patton, who brings a wealth of experience to the sushi aspect of the menu. Together, this talented team has crafted a selection of dishes that honor culinary traditions while embracing the art of fusion.

Every dish at Kung Fu Cantina promises to be a delightful surprise, showcasing quality ingredients and a deep knowledge of flavor pairing. From rich, savory spices to delicate, nuanced tastes, the menu is designed to take diners on an unforgettable gastronomic adventure.

Kung Fu Cantina will open for lunch and dinner seven days a week, from 11 a.m. – 10 p.m., making it a convenient dining option for anyone in the Bluffton area. In addition to dining in, the restaurant plans to offer online ordering for to-go meals in the near future, along with a selection of grab-n-go options available on-site. This means you can enjoy their exciting fusion dishes even on the busiest days!
