"This Japanese-French chef's counter on the edge of McCarren Park puts a premium on performance, and the staff's over-the-top attention to detail elevates the experience. The signature duck pie, for example, has its own theme music, cribbed from the Netflix series Chef’s Table (actually)—though it's the abalone risotto we still find ourselves daydreaming about. The lavish 13-course tasting menu here costs $300, but there's also a shorter $180 menu served at the bar (there, walk-in seating is available, but reservations take priority)." - bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick
