Earlier this month, I treated my friend Diane to a NYC day for her birthday — one that included a massage at an Asian-style spa and lunch of her choice. We ended up at Mishima, a Japanese restaurant on Lexington between 30 and 31st streets, with my friend Lyerka joining us for lunch. None of us had previously been.
What an absolute treat!
From James — our ever-smiling and attentive waiter— to fresh perfectly grilled wild salmon (teriyaki style), incredibly fresh sushi and so much more in between (including succulent gyoza, flavorful shumai, tasty hijiki — a dark brown/black seaweed — salad). And so reasonably priced! Lunch for 3 with lots of wine, only $100.
When in the area, do try this tiny gem. And, do ask to sit on the second floor and request James as your waiter.
Mishima 164 Lexington, New York City 212.532.9596
