"This two-Michelin-starred restaurant is leading the charge for a new wave of Korean fine dining restaurants. From the same team behind Atoboy and Naro, Atomix has been heaped with awards since its debut for its ambitious menu. Reservations can be hard to nab." - Melissa McCart
"Le Bernardin is for old-school thrills. Atomix is for right now. Located in a Nomad townhouse with a 14-seat counter in the basement, this Korean-ish restaurant serves food that’s luxe and inventive without feeling gimmicky or overproduced. Every dish—such as langoustine with foie gras, or thinly sliced wagyu battered like french toast—comes with a detailed flashcard, and, if you drop your napkin, a server will bring you a fresh one with a pair of tongs. This restaurant provides a level of service that makes other spots look sloppy. Reservations are released online on the first of each month at 3pm. It’s important to note that the month’s entire slate of reservations becomes available on the first. So that’s your only window. There’s also an online waitlist you can join. You can also find exclusive reservations available for Chase Sapphire Reserve® cardholders here.

The chef’s counter is $395 per person while the bar tasting menu is $285 per person. Book reservations online." - Melissa McCart
"Currently the highest ranking North American restaurant on the World's Best list, located in New York City." - Bettina Makalintal
"Verdict: This is still one of the best fine-dining options in town, and it’s not that stuffy. Dinner costs $395 and takes place at a U-shaped counter, with around 12 Korean-influenced courses accompanied by illustrated flash cards. The attention to detail is impressive, and the food is always pristine, satisfying, and inventive. Reservations are released online on the first of each month at 3pm.
