"Atoboy, from the Atomix team, is fine dining for people who don’t like fine dining. This Flatiron spot serves a four-course $75 prix fixe in a casual space with scuffed concrete floors, and their food is just as impressive as anything you’ll find at a spot with an overbearing maître d’. The menu changes frequently, but the Korean-inspired dishes are always one of a kind. You might eat some octopus served over a warm sweet potato puree, or you might have snap peas with kimchi and foie gras. Whatever you get, be sure to add on the optional fried chicken course." - bryan kim, kenny yang
