Description

Several years in, and Chef Hoyoung Kim and his team continue to deliver their promise of a nicely poised, modern Korean prix-fix that is both familiar and substantial. Jook with smoked eel and sesame is as comforting as it is refined, while crispy seaweed cradling tuna tartare and rice capped with caviar is as luxurious of a start as one could hope for. Have you ever seen a banchan as minimalist and as impactful as this one? Probably not. Dinner typically ends with a glazed Korean-style donut and a silky-smooth orb of ice cream. All the while, this slim and sleek restaurant is right at home being in such close proximity to the Flatiron Building thanks to its soaring ceilings, sultry lighting and a packed dining room humming with energy.
