Sushi Noz
japanese, sushi · ★★ Michelin
$$$$
There is a certain energy that courses through this sacred space, where every detail recreates an intimate Japanese refuge. Some of the tools alone are marvels, and Chef Nozomu Abe is a meticulous and engaging craftsman. When booking, keep an eye out for his dates and time slots. Commence with dishes like grilled Norwegian king crab in a sauce mixed with Pacific cod roe, or Japanese rock oyster with rice vinegar and bonito. Miso soup is the perfect backdrop for silky-soft eel “noodles” with salted egg yolk cream and crispy tofu pieces, while sushi is jewel-like. This craft comes at a price: ex

Meju
Korean, Regional Cuisine · ★ Michelin
$$$$
Hiding behind a banchan shop in Long Island City, this chef’s counter is as much a classroom as it is a restaurant. Chef Hooni Kim is a worthy guide as he builds a deeply personal menu around traditional Korean ingredients that he’s been wild fermenting and aging for the last decade. Dazzling versions of doenjang, gochujang, ganjang and ssamjang shine with silky tofu, fried pancakes, Miyazaki beef and Niman Ranch pork. He brings the room together and impresses with carefully calibrated dishes that appear strikingly minimalist. Details are impressive, and many of the service pieces are handmade

Dishes may include beautifully cooked Norwegian langoustine with Meyer lemon sabayon and crisp shellfish tuile, or halibut paired with salt-baked celeriac and smoked whey beurre blanc.

Le Bernardin
french, seafood · ★★★ Michelin
$$$$
Well-heeled patrons continue to hold court in this iconic Midtown restaurant led by the ever-gracious Chef Eric Ripert. Truly, this is the moment to dress up, as diamond necklaces and finely pressed suits fill the kinetic dining room night after night. Seafood has long been the calling card of a kitchen that offers a sizeable à la carte menu and doesn’t force guests into lengthy tasting experiences. Salmon with horseradish emulsion alongside the signature yellowfin tuna pounded thin and laid over toasted baguette smeared with foie gras speaks to a quietly sophisticated, confident style ground
