At n/naka, Chef Niki Nakayama serves a striking 13-course Japanese tasting menu in a cozy, modern space where every dish is a culinary masterpiece.
"Chefs Niki Nakayama and Carole Iida-Nakayama serve a 13-course modern kaiseki experience for $365 per person. The menu changes with the seasons, along with the chef’s whims, while the flow of the meal adheres to Japanese traditions. The three-hour experience is beautifully orchestrated and paced just so, leaving diners pampered, satisfied, and feeling thoroughly justified for indulging in something so extravagant. A recent renovation has transformed the intimate dining room with curved cement accents and warm wood cabinetry." - Eater Staff, Rebecca Roland, Matthew Kang, Mona Holmes
