Intimate 15-seat omakase sushi restaurant serving Edomae-style nigiri.
"I experienced a rare, nearly three-hour Edomae-style omakase at a 15-seat tasting counter helmed by J. Trent Harris, beginning with three warm courses, followed by a leisurely tasting of about 10 pieces of expertly aged fish, a signature horsehair crab addition, thoughtful sake pairings from a sommelier, and a finishing miso caramel ice cream topped with crunchy sweet potatoes — an intimate, windowless room with a curated playlist that feels like pure luxury." - ByPervaiz Shallwani
"Mujō remains the city’s hardest-to-book enigma, so scoring a place at the stellar 15-seat omakase table in West Midtown is the ultimate special occasion flex. The space is equally enigmatic—a hidden door leads to a dark room that looks like the only way to enter is with a secret greeting and wire transfer to an offshore account. Servers, dressed in black, nearly disappear into walls until one steps forward to fill your glass. But the biggest mystery to unravel will be which of the 12 courses will be your favorite, especially when every bite of high-grade nigiri is worthy of the title." - team infatuation
"Getting a reservation, even at the hottest places, isn’t usually a challenge in these parts. But Mujo remains the city’s hardest-to-book enigma, so scoring a place at the stellar 15-seat omakase table in West Midtown is the ultimate special occasion flex. The space is equally enigmatic—a hidden door leads to a dark room that looks like the only way to enter is with a secret greeting and million-dollar wire transfer to an offshore account. Servers, dressed in black, nearly disappear into walls until one steps forward to fill your glass. But the biggest mystery to unravel will be which of the 12 courses will be your favorite, especially when every bite of high-grade nigiri is worthy of the title.

"With its celebrity fan base and tough reservations, eating at this omakase spot gets you plenty of bragging points. And the food and experience here is certainly deserving of it. Mujo is behind a discreet door next to their sister restaurant Cooks & Soldiers. Once you arrive, you get the VIP experience, where a sliding door reveals a tiny dimly lit back room that looks more like the setting of a high-stakes poker game than a normal dining room. Service is swift and attentive. And, sure, do a quick A-lister perusal around the 15-seat counter, but know that the real stars of this dinner are the dishes: a mix of small plates like crab fingers artfully displayed in a half shell and amazing nigiri that recently took a plane to get to your plate.

"Dining at Mujo feels like a secret spy mission. First, you need to secure a reservation (good luck), then you need to find the place (it’s a discreet door beside their sister restaurant Cooks & Soldiers). Once inside, yet another door reveals a tiny, dark room that looks more like a setting for a high-stakes poker game. You may not see Daniel Craig here, but maybe you'll see Soulja Boy at this 15-seat omakase counter. Your 14-ish course mission begins with small plates and nigiri flown fresh from Japan. The experience is $225 per person, and that tag can easily climb with add-ons like crab fingers artfully displayed in a half shell. But we'd pay that price again to live out our clandestine dreams over a great meal. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve.
