Morimoto is my favorite celebrity chef, so I had to try his restaurant while visiting NYC. The expectations going in are so high that it may have pulled down my overal feelings just a bit since I am looking for the "best of" for every portion of my meal. Anyway...For appetizers we ordered the Tofu Miso Soup and the soft... more

Very nice place, although tables too close to each others. Went with my girlfriend on a 2-yr aniversary trip, I had the chicken soup (very nice) and salmon; my gf had smoked salmon ravioli & yellowtail with rice, plus a martini and a beer and the bill was around $140. Of what we had, I'd recommend the chicken soup, the... more

On my first trip, I did not have the stomach to shell out the money for the Omakase (literally meaning "leave yourself in the chef's hands", or something like that ). On that first try, the food was good (I got the kobe in braised beer sauce which was really... more

Overrated! The food was average at best. I can get sushi just as good at any local sushi restaurant. Service was not too good. Don't be fooled by a name. You're better off going to Nobu. more

Considering the look of the street and the storefront, it was a huge contrast to walk into the restaurant and see such a hip and beautiful space. Very well done. We opted for the chef's tasting menu and it was a nice dining experience. The 8 courses were good, and the presentation was super. Loved the fatty tuna pasted on... more

Very disappointed. I had read so many good reviews about this restaurant, so many articles in good magazines (even japanese one). Coming from switzerland, we had booked a month in advance. My wife is japanese and we love to discover exciting japanese restaurant all other the world. First impression with Morimoto was that the interior design is nice but was... more
