"At this East Village spot with Ghibli soundtrack remixes on the stereo, delicately fried tempura is the specialty, and the $145 omakase (with an A5 wagyu add-on) is your only option. Here, nothing is served out of season—you might get a piece of baby sea bream just because the adult sea bream weren’t optimal that day. Eating at the six-seat counter will remind you that perfectly prepared vegetables can be crunchier than potato chips and sweeter than candy." - will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore
