Sungchul Shim, chef and owner of the Michelin star restaurant Kochi opens his second Michelin star restaurant Mari in Hell's Kitchen. At Mari (roll in Korean), Sung offers a tasting menu of street-food inspired Korean hand rolls, complemented by an extensive wine list and a selection of Korean spirits like soju and chungju.

Mari is offering a $145 per person seasonal tasting menu (along with a beverage pairing for $110) that explores the many facets of Korean cuisine through small plates and inventive hand rolls.

Due to the nature of our tasting menu, we are unable to accommodate vegetarian/vegan diets, gluten-free diets (if soy is not okay to consume), rice-free diets, allergies to fish, allium, sesame seeds/oil, and aversion to raw seafood. If you have any questions regarding food restrictions, please contact us before making a reservation.

*Reservations are available 30 days in advance and released at midnight daily.

From the OpenTable editors: The MICHELIN-Starred Kochi team's handroll destination is one of the most thrilling omakases you can experience in the city. Bites of grilled trout, king crab, and duck breast are so good that this Midtown restaurant, too, has its own MICHELIN Star.

    Had a great evening at Mari! The tasting menu was super fun and creative, and the team here is very attentive- thank you Matthew for taking excellent care of us! He’s an amazing bartender and made the best espresso martini I've ever had—smooth, bold, and just the right amount of sweetness. Only regret was not saving enough room for dessert. The donuts here are so yum.

    Amazing experience. On the expensive side but you’d know that going in. Food was top notch and the service was excellent. You’d feel just as comfortable dressing fancy as you would in jeans and a sweater.

    My son and I enjoyed sitting at the counter in front of The Chef and he was very pleasant and obviously very proud of his menu. Rightfully so! Service was impeccable and food was just amazing! We love this restaurant and we keep coming back every time we are in NYC

    A solid dining experience with a good variety of dishes. About half were excellent, while the other half were just okay. Service was generally good but not quite Michelin star level. Upon arrival, there was no host, and we waited 10 minutes past our reservation before being seated. However, once at the table, the service was top notch. Overall, a mixed but enjoyable experience.

    We have always enjoyed our meals at Mari, but the New Year's Eve special menu was beyond outstanding, a superlative experience in every way. The food was elevated, creative and full of complex flavors and contrasts. The staff were lovely and the Chef was warm and welcoming. We would recommend this special place to anybody who loves fine food and a warm ambiance. Five stars all the way.
