After being the chef-owner of a restaurant in Japan for five years, Chef Morimoto moved to New York to explore western cooking styles. Fifteen years later, he has become well known for his unsurpassed culinary talent. Among Chef Morimoto's passions is his collection of traditional japanese culinary tools. Recently, Ralph Lauren designed his new chef wear.

Besides its sushi, I highly recommend its tuna carpaccio and their to die for chocolate pot dessert!
Morimoto's sushi bar is unsurpassed for quality, and surprisingly economical considering the upscale nature of the rest of the restaurant.
The iron chef was in the kitchen when I was there... and the seafood is the freshest I've ever had.
