Eunice C.: get the lardo and sea urchin crostini
Bullfrog & Baum: A top favorite restaurant that has you craving it the second you step out the door. Spaghetti crab, santa barbara sea urchin, basil pasta is phenomenal!
Eater: Order the now-famous fusilli with octopus & bone marrow or the spaghetti with sea urchin and crab. For those that don't like fish, the aged sirloin steak with bone marrow panzanella. [Eater 38 Member]

Leigh Kwak: bibim, sea urchin, five senses pork belly, and apple rice wine baba were really good
Michelin Travel & Lifestyle: Try creamy sea urchin, Seoul duck, or lobster in a complex curry-like sauce. Desserts are delicate, and worth a taste. – Green Guide Editor

Edwin A.: Try the fall vegetable salad, the truffled grits, the sea urchin pasta, or the scallops with foie.

pinsuda sagooleim: The fish... the rice... heavenly. Go if you're entertaining clients. Best when you're not personally footing the bill. Omakase style is the only way to go. P.S. The sea urchin is divine. Read more.
Travel + Leisure: The sushi here—arctic char, ebi (shrimp), uni (sea urchin), and ikura (salmon roe)—is an essential New York bite. More places to eat like a local: tandl.me/12ufz7c
Martial Bénard: As a first-timer here, was a bit puzzled by the way things go here. The nice thing when you sit at the bar is that you can order your sushi "a la carte" one by one... Urchin is a truly special treat.

Stu Campbell: The Uni Soba, a cold noodle soup with plenty of sea urchin and salmon roe, is delicious: makes you feel like a whale shark tasting the ocean.
Gabriel Hayes: The Uni Don special is very worth trying. I had never had sea urchin before, but I thought this was prepared tremendously with the roe, the wasabi and the seaweed.

Jonathan San: Great meal for a great price. Cool staff, fun vibe. I'd come again.

Zeb Holt: Sushi is suburb. Excellent, fresh sea urchin. The short ribs hot plate was truly amazing.
Andrej Rusakov: Sushi is not even close to the ones prepared by high grave chefs - rice is so-so, and they put way too much wasabi on the fluke sushi. But sea urchin was great (still way too much rice).
Shiran Vandaele: The Northern roll with truffle is TOP
