As one who loves Kusaka in NYC, coming to their pop up in the Four Seasons Surf Club was a treat. The chef, Shinichi Inoue, has served us before in NY. Everything is imported from Japan and the quality and presentation is excellent. The staff is very pleasant and helpful too. I only have 2 complaints that are out of their control. First is the choice of Japanese beers was limited and not to my personal liking. This is because they are required to use the Four Seasons' alcohol vendors only. The other is the $35 valet charge. They will be open until August, and then in November will move into their own restaurant in the building next door when it is completed as construction has been delayed about a year. This restaurant is highly recommended.

Our favorite restaurant in the area . It never disappoints- we describe as Elevated service and food . Our waiter was beyond superb . He introduced us to a rose Martini with a South African gin and a twist of orange peel but also recommended the duck ragu which we paired with an incredible salad, sea bass , broccolini and more that I just can’t recall . We will return next time we are in the area .
