Praised everywhere from The NY Times and Food + Wine to Edible Manhattan, Ms Yoo is a contemporary Korean restaurant serving inventive dishes and unique cocktails in a sleek space.
Grab this $89 pulse (a $168 value) for a decadent dinner for two, that includes 2 appetizers, 2 mains, and 4 specialty cocktails.
Celebrated Chef, Owner & Restaurateur Esther Choi (Mokbar) showcases her prowess in irresistible dishes like the Roasted Bone Marrow (toasted baguette, beef bacon kimchi marmalade) and the Steak Frites (organic black angus NY strip, taro frites, black garlic butter).
Craft cocktails by award-winning mixologist Ben Rojo (an Angel's Share alum) make the perfect counterpoint to the culinary pyrotechniques. Think: the Lady Vengeance, a provocative elixir of Montelobos mezcal, jujube, Campari, and vermouth.
After dinner, take the stairs to the second floor where Lower East Side revelers dance and tipple above the floating gazebos, lush with flowering vines, into the early hours.
Let's see where this night takes you...
Founded by star chef & restaurateur Esther Choi (Food Network), Ms Yoo is a bi-level restaurant & cocktail lounge where traditional American bar food and drink is re-imagined with authentic Korean favors, ingredients and techniques.
Chef Choi rose through some of the city's best kitchens before being named Food Republic's "New Rising Chef" and Zagat's 30 Under 30, but she credits her grandmother for being her most important mentor - in whose honor the restaurant is named.
The design by Stevie Lewis (also behind Arlo SoHo, Barchetta) infuses outdoor elements such as ivy vines and arbors, into the interior of the venue. The black & white parquet floors, antique mirrors, and French molding lend a romantic grandeur, while black leather banquettes and bespoke wooden tables create cozy nooks for a nocturnal ambiance.
To start, the Tteok N' Cheese is an unmissable melange of rice cakes, gruyère, cheddar, mozzarella smoked bacon, and panco crumbs - the ultimate Korean mac n' cheese. For mains, try the Pork Belly Bossam, salt-baked Berkshire pork belly in gem lettuce cups and sweet & sour daikon kimchi.
The inventive cocktails are as much of a draw here; we recommend the Stairway to Heaven (Thai basil vodka, pineapple, lemongrass, gochugaru). Each intriguing sip will give you a story to tell...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full dinner menu.
