Cute Japanese fusion restaurant with a nice vibe, although it was a little loud. Service was friendly and welcoming. The food and drinks were delicious, although the portions were on the smaller side. I ordered the uni mentai pasta with crab and roe. It was creamy and rich, and the was a great touch. The Yuzu Dream was refreshing and citrusy. Overall, I enjoyed everything I ordered, but the price is something to keep in mind given the portion sizes.

Came here to celebrate my friend's birthday. The ambiance was modern and spacious. We ordered the Brussels sprouts, grilled squid, uni mentai pasta, and kaisen don, and everything was delicious. The Brussels sprouts were perfectly crispy. The grilled squid was flavorful and paired nicely with the sauce. The uni mentai pasta came with a generous amount of uni, crab, and salmon roe, making it a standout dish. The kaisen don was fresh and came with two pieces of each type of sashimi. Service was great overall, except our waitress kept trying to take away our grilled squid plate even though we weren't finished with it.

Manhatto offers a nice modern twist on Japanese dining! Wagyu Caviar Toast ($33) | 4.5/5: Thoroughly enjoyed this! That bite of caviar paired so well with the beef. Ribeye Fried Rice ($49) | 4.5/5: The steak was cooked to perfection, and the fried rice with butter and egg hit the spot. Peach Me! Cocktails ($18) | 4/5: Refreshing and tasted just like an elevated peach soda. Lychee On Top ($19) | 4/5: Solid drink--a bit spirit-forward, but nice clear lychee notes. Caviar Uni Temaki ($42) | 3.5/5: this was just ok, not enough caviar and uni had aftertaste Tuna Carpaccio ($23) | 3.75/5: Served slightly warm and lacked the flavor punch you want in a carpaccio. Corn Ribs ($14) | 3.75/5: Decent, but a bit too salty, a squeeze of some lemon would have balanced it out tho Chicken Karaage ($14) | 3.75/5: the batter was ok, but still solid overall Uni Mentai Pasta ($29) | 2/5: My least fave. It was overly heavy with mayo, overpowering the mentaiko, and the uni had a strong, fishy aftertaste

The food here is amazing, but the portions are pretty small for the price. My favorite was the ribeye fried rice and hamachi carpaccio. The truffle in the food was amazing (if it includes truffle), even the smell of it was potent. They do have a lot of seating and the service is pretty quick. I do recommend a reservation in case it does get busy

4.0 / 5.0 A restaurant serving Asian cuisine. The interior is spacious and clean. Service is prompt and the food tastes good, though the portions feel a bit small--perhaps because it was lunchtime?

hamachi don
Tanvi

One of my favorite restaurants ever! A total gem. The service is great and I love the staff. The food is incredible. I have LOVED every single dish that I have ordered from here. My personal favorite dishes are the uni mentai pasta, hamachi don, and kamo miso pasta. Manhatto is a must visit when you are in NYC!! The interior is gorgeous and the restaurant has such a great vibe.

SUCH A HIDDEN GEM, I wish more people knew about this place. We had a reservation on a Sunday night for my friend and I and were seated immediately upon arrival, even when we came 10 minutes late due to the subway delays. The dishes were amazing. We ordered the Wagyu & Cavier Toast, the Uni Mentai Pasta, and the Ribeye Fried Rice. My favorite would have to be the Uni Mentai Pasta, the flavors all just melt into your mouth, and if you love uni, this dish is for you. The ribeye was so tender also and paired so nicely with their egg yolk they serve on the side. The ambiance inside was dark and was a perfect dinner spot with friends or a date. I would most definitely come back to this place and will not stop raving it about it to others.

Unagi Don

Dinner here on a Saturday evening, highly recommend getting a reservation as the whole restaurant was busy. The food is pretty good, but also a bit expensive for the portion sizes. Flavor wise, the best dish we got were the brussels sprouts. The teapot also is very nice as well got free refills. The ramens were yummy but on the smaller side, and honestly worse than any other ramen places eg Ippudo. The portions here are definitely on the smaller side, but the food overall is decent, and the vibes are very lively and hip. Looking forward to trying other dishes off the menu next time!

I generally take any kind of "modern", "fusion" Japanese with a huge grain of shio--but Manhatto won me over with most of its dishes. - Sweet Corn Ribs: Love that this is becoming more common in the NYC food scene because who doesn't love bite-sized pieces of sweet corn on the cob tossed in spicy garlic seasoning? - Trio Pearl Crudo: A refreshing concoction of Hokkaido scallop, Hokkaido uni and salmon roe with yuzu mignonette sauce. Perfect for these blistering summer days. - Yuzu Creamy Salad: Unless you reeeeally need the fiber, I'd skip this very basic caesar salad. It's not bad, just not worth the stomach space when there are so many other things to try. - Toridori Roll: If you skew more traditional like me, opt for this maki made with tuna, salmon, yellowtail, avocado, cucumber, and jalapeño. As basic as a millennial who loves food and travel. - Hell's Kitchen Roll: If you skew more creative--or just plain don't eat seafood--you might prefer this maki of sweet potato tempura, pickled radish, shiitake, white seaweed, chive, and Japanese curry mayo. It wasn't for me, but there's a lid for every pot, I hear. - Uni Mentai Pasta: As creamy and carby as any mentaiko pasta--just too small in portion to be a real entree. But that's the Manhattan tax, for you. - Wagyu Shoyu Ramen: Came with a large, thinly sliced cut of A5 wagyu beef and ramen noodles in a clear truffle shoyu broth. Not bad, but not one I'd order again unless you really want some rare Wagyu. - Salmon Ikura Don: Generously loaded and perfectly made. For libations, I tried the Homemade Yuzu Soda. Skip it, unless you like your yuzu to taste like candy. No idea why it was so sweet, but there was no trace of yuzu flavor in it at all. Their homemade soda machine must've been broken. Honestly, the biggest fault I had with Manhatto was that apps were priced like entrees, and entrees were portioned like apps (but not priced like them). But that's a problem endemic to most of Manhattan's restaurants these days.

Sweet Potato Mortadella- Roasted sweet potato, mortadella, sesame, micro greens, and a honey-glaze sauce. $14. Unique/pretty tasty

Recommendations- Uni Mentai Pasta, Kara-age This is a very unique Japanese spot within Hell's Kitchen that I went to with a small group a good while ago. I would characterize this place specifically as an izakaya with some interesting yōshoku/Western-style Japanese options. The staff was friendly, and the inside was relatively quiet. We went there before they had a liquor license, but they have since added a nice selection of wines, sakes, shochu, and the like. First to arrive of the appetizers was one of the more interesting dishes of the night, a Japanese-Italian fusion called Sweet Potato Mortadella for $14, with roasted sweet potato, mortadella, sesame, micro greens, and a honey-glaze sauce. The mix of sweetness and saltiness from the various elements was unique, though it was a bit hard to combine everything. This was a bit odd, but fun. A more standard appetizer was the $13 Kara-age, or Japanese-style fried chicken with spicy mayo. I have had this dish from plenty of places, and this was a good rendition. The breading wasn't too thick, and the chicken was very moist. The sauce wasn't too spicy, but it worked. I also liked this. The favorite of the main dishes was the Uni Mentai Pasta for $29, with uni, snow crab, salmon roe, and spaghetti in a creamy cod roe sauce. This was their more seafood-focused version of a common wafu pasta dish, and it was different but tasty. The snow crab was plentiful, and the salmon roe added a pop of saltiness. The mentaiko flavor was a bit less spicy than usual, which I usually don't like, but in this case, it worked as you could taste the various seafood elements more easily. This was very tasty and a good spin. There was also the tasty $49 Ribeye Fried Rice, with USDA prime ribeye, miso compound butter, marinated egg yolk, and fried rice. The fried rice was very tasty with plenty of umami, and this was especially the case with the egg yolk added to it. The ribeye was plentiful and flavorful, but it wasn't the most tender, reminding me more of skirt steak due to the slight chew. Overall, the dish worked, but would have been better if the ribeye had been sliced/cooked better. Another dish was the Kamo Miso Pasta for $30, with seared duck breast, Parmigiano Reggiano, and spaghetti with white miso butter sauce. The duck was cooked a bit better than the steak, and I liked the mix of fat and skin. There was a vague miso flavor, with the fried rice having more of it. The dish felt a bit too buttery and rich overall, so I slightly preferred the other pasta dish as it felt a bit more balanced, but it was still good enough. Last was a standard $25 Salmon Ikura Don. There were seven large pieces of salmon, a pretty good amount of salmon roe below, and some other vegetables, including broccoli and some purple seaweed. It was worth the price due to the fish quality, but I would go to other places instead for sushi or sashimi. This was a pretty good and unique izakaya. There were a couple of interesting ideas, but I wish some dishes (ribeye, duck) had been executed better.

Uni mentai pasta
Marina L.

Delicious meal! The restaurant has a good vibe for date night or just a nice dinner with the girls. The staff were super friendly and helpful with helping us decide on what to get, and the food came out quickly as well. My favourite was definitely the scallop! The order comes with two and we just added another one on the side. The yuzu flavor balanced really well with the fresh scallop and uni. The sashimi pear salad was really fresh and refreshing. The uni pasta was so creamy and would highly recommend. The miso butter steak was nicely cooked and the rice was really well flavored. Would highly recommend!

Stephanie L.

Unagi croissant: I've never had buttery croissant mixed with unagi but it was an interesting combo. A little salty but they gave a good amount of unagi. Brussels sprouts: This was so good! Probably my favorite dish of the night. It was nice and crispy with a sweet glaze. Trio crudo: It felt a little small for the price and the scallops were really thin. The uni just melted so I couldn't really taste it, but the sauce was citrusy and refreshing. Corn ribs: The flavor was really good! It made me feel like I was eating chips but corn version. Mentaiko uni pasta: Creamy without being too heavy. They gave a generous amount of crab, uni, and salmon roe. A little too strong on the Kewpie Mayo in my opinion but it was still good. I also got the barley milk tea which was really delicious and not overly sweet. Like all fusion places, I did think the prices were a little steep for the portions but it should be expected at this point lol.

Manhatto is such a lovely addition to the neighborhood and I'm thrilled to have such a great new Japanese restaurant close by! The space has a beautiful aesthetic that is both stylish and comfortable. The fish was fresh, portions were generous and there were plenty of menu options -- easy to find something for everyone. The yuzu and matcha cocktails were creative and strong too. The service was wonderful and the servers were so friendly and attentive. Overall, we had a great experience and the prices are quite reasonable. We came for dinner but also saw that they have great value lunch sets too so we'll definitely be back to try those out!

Food: 4/5 Service bumped it to a 5/5 because all of the…read morestaffs were so friendly. From the moment we walked in to us finding the bathroom and waving anyone down for our requests. We got the fish carpaccio to start and it was pretty good! It tasted like what I expected from the description. The miso soup was also good, not too salty and slightly different than your trusty takeout sushi spot. I got the dashi omelette and it was a little sweet and savory. It paired nicely with the radish. I got the cold, plum udon. Which was refreshing and a bit sour from the plums. The broth was sippable since it wasn't too salty. My friend got the mushroom cold soba and it came with mashed yam. This dish tasted more like what I was expecting since the sourness of my dish kinda was unexpected, but I still enjoyed it! My friend also got a drink and it was SO strong. I think they're serious about their drinks here I didn't see any mocktails or cocktails. They gave us black sesame ice cream on the house since her drinks came out later than expected, which was really nice! I'm not a black sesame fan, but this place's ice cream was good! You're able to chew on the black sesame's bits and pieces in there. Overall, I do think they nail Japanese food, it's supposed to be simple and clean. So if you're looking for creative and big umami flavors, that's not going to be this place. But if you want authentic, Japanese food, this is the place!

This is one of the best izakaya restaurants in Manhattan, and it keeps bringing me back time after…read moretime. The moment you walk in, you're instantly transported to Japan. The décor features light natural wood and bamboo, creating a warm, authentic atmosphere, with an impressive collection of sake lining the wall. The food is outstanding. We started with the seasonal soft-shell crab, which was incredibly fresh and fried to perfection. The daily sashimi special was exceptionally fresh, and the salad was light and refreshing. The must-order Wagyu beef, served on a hot stone, simply melted in our mouths and was unforgettable. Every dish was beautifully prepared, and I enjoyed every single bite. The impeccable service was the icing on the cake. The staff was attentive throughout our meal, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. I absolutely loved the entire dining experience and can't wait to come back again!

Soba was clean, refreshing. Tempura was fried just right…read more The eel rice (unaju) was huge (though it should be, for the price). It tasted good, though I wouldn't say it was mind blowing. We both liked the soba and tempura more. The servers were great, especially the guy who welcomed us and walked us to a quieter part of the restaurant since our baby was sleeping.

Cuisine: 7 Service: 6…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 4 Overall: 6 I am mixed about my feelings toward this restaurant. After two visits, I have enjoyed certain items, but also disappointed by others. The inconsistency in their quality leaves me a bit unsure. On top of that, their prices are relatively high. I have easily spent over $120 each visit (two people each time) without having a full meal. The items I enjoyed the most were the Oyster Emerald (8/10) for $28 and Kama Yaki Hamachi (8/10) for $23. Both are quite expensive compared to other izakaya restaurants I frequent. The Yammy Uzura (7.5/10) was very good as well. On the mediocre side, the Hamachi Carpaccio (7/10) lacked the flavors I expected. Also, most of the Sushi Spoon (6/10) I have tried are underwhelming. Quality of the rice is inferior to what I am accustomed to and definitely not worth the price. The Hokkaido Uni was $18 for that one small bite. On the negative side, their tiny portion of Fried Chicken Nanban (6/10) was nothing special and costs $21. Furthermore, the few Yakitori (5/10) skewers I have tried were somewhat dry and lacked flavor. In addition, I am really not a fan of their Agedashi Tofu (3/10), which has a goopy and slimy texture that felt off putting. Ultimately, I find some of the food here good enough to come back for, but not at these prices. Both times I left felt like I overpaid. Therefore, I don't see myself returning to this izakaya.

Their reservations also book up quickly. I made my reservation a week before. We were seated in one of their booths which was cute, comfy, cozy, and clean. It was just my husband and i. They have good happy hour deals, but I don't remember how many dishes we ordered were on HH. We got the tako wasa, chicken karaage, kibinago, and mentaiko pasta. All were great! All my favorites and perfect for a quick dinner. Their menu is pretty extensive -- I wished we had more time to order a bunch of other dishes. Good portions for sharing. We were surprised we had some leftovers. Definitely a good spot for groups to order a bunch of tapas and mains. Service was good and the food and drinks came out within good timing. We'll definitely have to go another time when we're in the area with some friends and order a lot more. Can't wait to return.

I started off with the Hotate Carpaccio ($18) - these Hokkaido scallops tasted fresh and delicious. The ikura (salmon roe) on top was a nice addition. For my main course, I got the Unagi Don ($34) - this was also very good, although nothing too out of the ordinary. I thought the price was slightly on the higher end. The portion size for this (and in general) is not particularly large, but still fine. The restaurant interior is quite narrow, which leads to a lively atmosphere that can get a bit noisy at times, though not too bad. It's decorated in a classic Japanese restaurant style with booth seating as well as bar seating. I was able to get a walk-in table on a Saturday night after just a brief ~15 min wait. The staff are friendly and the service speed is quick. Overall, I think Sozai is a great option for quality Japanese food in Midtown if you are craving any type of Japanese cuisine.
