At this elegant East Village counter, Tsukimi offers a modern interpretation of kaiseki rooted in seasonality and restraint. Named for the Japanese moon-viewing harvest tradition, the serene room glows with illuminated ceramics, mirrored panels and an open kitchen framed by soft arches. The tasting menu changes frequently, drawing on Japanese ingredients and subtle flavors. A silky chawanmushi with oyster, uni and Kaluga caviar is a highlight, while seasonal combinations like bamboo shoot with firefly squid and charcoal-grilled duck with spring vegetables showcase the kitchen’s refined approach. Beverage pairings are available, though the sake selection deserves special attention.
