Profile

Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto's second coming—this time in a striking Chelsea Market space—goes way beyond sushi: There's a water-bottle wall, a clamorous subterranean cocktail lounge, a sake sommelier, and a $125 chef's choice menu—think freshly made tofu salted with truffles, and “Kentucky Fried” blowfish served in the tatami-covered "omakase room". — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Recommended Dishes

Yellowtail pastrami, $21; octopus carpaccio, $21
