ITO 9.1
Tribeca
Vibes: Luxury Dining Elite Date Night Magic Trendy Table Hotspots
ITO is a 16-seat Tribeca omakase counter where chefs Masa Ito and Kevin Kim serve an extended progression of Hokkaido uni, aged bluefin, and precise nigiri in a dim, focused room. It functions as a destination sushi experience for guests who want an intimate, chef-driven meal rather than a scene.
Must-Try Dishes: Hokkaido uni nigiri, Aged bluefin tuna nigiri, Uni and caviar rice bowl
