Atoboy

The 32 Best Restaurants in New York City

"Inspired by banchan, but far more voluptuous and filling, the refined food at this Korean eatery (not to be confused with LES food-free cocktail temple Attaboy) is made by a hotshot, Michelin-starred chef. Think: Korean pear with calamansi,shrimp with white kimchi and buerre blanc, pork belly and cauliflower, or fried chicken with addictive peanut sauce. Desserts tend to be bright, floral eye-openers for the night ahead. Wine is the focus of the drink menu here, with a tightly curated list that leaves room for experimentation alongside the classic Californian and French numbers." - Emily Saladino, Devra Ferst
