n/naka

"Securing a reservation is no easy task, but once inside this intimate, wonderfully stylish room, you’ll find a warm and graceful dining experience. The finely suited and hospitable team are an extension of Chef Niki Nakayama, who presents her interpretation of kaiseki by drawing upon seafood, meat, and produce sourced mostly across Japan and California. Ever changing, the coursed tasting weaves together delicate, aromatic broths with heartier fare like grilled Miyazaki wagyu and scallops all seasoned with a generally light touch. The only dish to never leave the menu is an artful twirl of al dente spaghetti dressed with tender abalone, pickled cod roe, and black truffle. As the meal ends, Chef Nakayama greets tables for one final personal touch." - Michelin Inspector
