"High-end sushi restaurants have a habit of naming themselves after the head chef, but there is no Mr. Moto behind this sushi speakeasy. This omakase counter is actually owned by the people behind East Village restaurants TabeTomo and Tomokase. They created the Mr. Moto character as a 19th century bon vivant, and you’ll receive an email from him with a code to crack before you arrive. The 21-course meal ($180) is focused on hyper-seasonal seafood that you won’t find at other spots in this price range. After dinner, take your date to the lounge for drinks. There’s a vintage player piano there that we suspect is being played by the ghost of Mr. Moto himself." - Team Infatuation
