The Toughest Reservations In NYC Right Now (And How To Get Them) - New York - The Infatuation
"Verdict: The Office of Mr. Moto isn't the city's first sushi speakeasy, and it isn't even the first sushi speakeasy in the East Village. But this restaurant still feels special. You have to solve a riddle in order to get in, and the space is decorated with various antiques, like one of the first Japanese pay phones. A meal here costs $195 and includes 21 courses. Expect things like gizzard shad with yuzu kosho and baby cuttlefish with a bit of yuzu juice. How To Get In: This place is already booked through January, but there's a waitlist you can put your name on. New reservations are released at 10am on the first of every month for the entire following month, so set a reminder for January 1st if you want to eat here in February. Reservations are prepaid, and they sell out quickly. The Office of Mr. Moto is not currently accepting walk-ins." - Bryan Kim
