11 Most Fun Dinners In America Right Now 2024

"NEW YORK For excessive amounts of fun in under 90 minutes, book a counter spot for the $99 omakase at Sushi On Me in Queens. The place looks sort of slapped together: there’s a disco ball on the ceiling, alt-rock posters, and a neon sign that says “Enjoy Your F*cking Dinner.” But the meal has a precise choreography, from the “Hooked on a Feeling” ooga chuggas that drop as you slurp oysters, to the “smoked” salmon you’ll inhale as the staff sing along to “Because I Got High.” It’s sort of like Broadway with fish and bottomless sake. If you need the party to go on a little longer, head to Upstairs Cocktail Bar next door for a nightcap." - anne cruz
