"With just 21 seats, this polished Palisades newcomer is the spot to be for a more intimate tasting experience. The zen dining room showcases a parade of luxe Japanese wagyu and fish dishes alongside extensive sake, wine, and unique cocktail programs. Seatings are available by reservation only, and the eight-course meal runs $150 per person. The name “Kappo” refers to more casual-leaning restaurants in Japan that encourage a playful, dinner-party atmosphere and frequent interactions with the chef at work. Caviar and uni add-ons are $100 and sake pairings are $80. Reservations are on the website." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky
