The Biggest Restaurant Mob Story
of the 21st Century (So Far)

KwangHo Lee of Momoya opens a third location at 47 Prince Street, Manhattan, Momoya SoHo, on Wednesday, March 30. The two-level restaurant seats 96 people — it includes a 12-seat sushi bar as well as a cocktail and lounge area. Business partner Wataru Mukai and chef Subhash Gurung steer the sushi menu and Tetsuya Okuda runs the kitchen. Options include a $150 kaiseki option as well as sushi and a la carte items. Alchemist-style bartender Alex Ott designed the cocktails while beverage director Leo Lê, formerly of Uchu, assembled the wine list. It’s less casual than the Chelsea and Upper West Side locations, a spokesperson has confirmed.
