"There are only 18 seats, including an eight-seat marble chef’s counter, at this new sushi and kaiseki boite in Astoria from restaurateur Jay Zheng and chef Darry Liu, who’s worked at restaurants like Shuko. The menu at Kōyō is omakase only, with the sushi option ($135) including dishes like Dungeness crab atop mitsuaki seaweed from Okinawa, and the kaiseki ($175) offering plates such as shirako tempura and smoked Tasmanian ocean trout." - Beth Landman
