"The owners of three Momoya sushi restaurants in Manhattan, kaiseki restaurant Kappo Sono in Union Square, and casual sushi spot Happy Tuna have signed a lease for a 5,000-square-foot ground-floor space owned by the Durst Organization, which features indoor and outdoor seating. That space will be transformed into a 150-seat high-end sushi restaurant and a 16-seat fine-dining kaiseki bar, with both concepts set to open by January 2026. “There are only a handful of kaiseki restaurants in the city, and it’s considered the most sophisticated form of Japanese cuisine,” said Kwangho Lee, president of Momoya." - Melissa McCart
