The Office of Mr. Moto
The Office of Mr. Moto : Sushi et speakeasy à NYC
Inauguré en 2023 par un passionné de cuisine japonaise, The Office of Mr. Moto est un restaurant situé au 120A St Marks Pl, dans le quartier d'East Village à New York. Ce lieu mystérieux allie tradition et modernité, proposant une expérience culinaire unique centrée sur l’omakase, un menu dégustation japonais. La réservation est très prisée, notamment pour le menu de 21 cours à 180 dollars, qui met en avant des ingrédients hyper-saisonniers importés directement du Japon. Le concept inclut également un speakeasy caché en dessous du restaurant, accessible uniquement après avoir résolu une énigme ou décodé un message, renforçant l’aspect exclusif et secret de l’établissement. La décoration mêle objets japonais vintage et ambiance clandestine, créant un cadre à la fois élégant et mystérieux. Après le dîner, les convives peuvent profiter d’un lounge avec un piano vintage et une sélection de sakés, pour une immersion totale dans l’univers japonais. The Office of Mr. Moto offre ainsi une expérience culinaire et sensorielle hors du commun, idéale pour les amateurs de sushi, de culture japonaise et de lieux secrets.

"Michelin Guide mention 2025 Some restaurants have stories; others create them. Meet The Office of Mr. Moto, a downtown spot that endeavors to bring history alive. Inspired by the late 1800s expedition of Commodore Perry, the restaurant is designed to mimic the worldly office of Mr. Moto, a fictionalized character who could have been aboard. The dining experience begins with an electronic letter containing a coded cipher to gain entry to the restaurant. It's all a bit mysterious, though their omakase is far from a secret. From black throat sea perch and red Gurnard to omakase standards like shima aji, their fish selection is impressive. Do take a drink to the downstairs library after dinner to continue the imaginative experience. "

"Speakeasy Those who are able to score a seat at the new East Village spot will receive a letter from Mr. Moto himself, which must be carefully read in order to solve a cipher that hints at how to enter the hidden restaurant. A Victorian-era mailbox with a pin pad inside is stationed at the unassuming storefront, where visitors will have to enter the passcode from the cipher they decoded. How to know you’ve cracked the code–the opaque front door window will become translucent, allowing guests to enter the space. And oh, how you’ll be rewarded once you make it through the entrance!"

"When you feel like you’ve seen, done, and eaten all that NYC’s overwhelming omakase scene can offer, go to The Office of Mr. Moto. This St. Mark’s speakeasy requires you to decode an email before your visit to get the entrance code, and is filled with eclectic Japanese antiques. The 21-course meal ($180) is focused on hyper-seasonal ingredients flown in daily from Japan, so expect pieces like shirako or the rare red gurnard that you don’t get at other sushi spots in this price range. Stop by the lounge for a drink after your dinner and listen to the vintage player piano"
