"How do you label the sort of restaurant that serves oxtail tagine, soba alla bottarga, and fried frog legs with lemongrass and ginger? You don’t. You just call it Nudibranch. This spot on 1st Ave. used to only serve a three-course prix fixe, but now you have the option to order every dish à la carte. Come by to experience some food that’s unique, tough to categorize, and generally delicious. The menu changes often, but the signature mushroom dish topped with a raw egg yolk tends to stick around. Order it." - will hartman, bryan kim, willa moore, kenny yang, neha talreja
