Sakagura

The 16 Best Restaurants Near Grand Central - New York - The Infatuation

"Finding Sakagura is at least a quarter of the fun of eating here. You have to walk into a nondescript office lobby, and down a random staircase in the back. At the bottom, you’ll find yourself in a big, dark room with bottles of sake lining the walls. The menu is mostly Japanese snacks—sashimi, tofu, little rice bowls—and there’s a textbook-sized drink menu. Make a reservation if you’re set on eating at a certain time. Even though it’s not easy to stumble on this place, it gets busy." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, molly fitzpatrick
