been to nobu, jean georges, le cirque, and basically every top restaurant in NYC. have to admit the $150 omakase at morimoto is the best meal i've ever had. we were blessed with a huge brick of toro, abalone, fois grois, uni, and the precious kobe beef in an 11 course out-of-this meal.
as for the decor... very modern in shape and color. feels like a modern museum or an art gallery in soho.
service was exceptional as expected and mr. morimoto warmed up to us after an initial aloofness.
overall, the BEST meal i've ever had and would recoomend it to anyone within a 150 miles of Philly!!!
