About
Tsukimi opened in 2019 on East 10th Street and earned a Michelin star for its intimate omakase focused on seasonal Japanese fish and carefully composed nigiri. The name means 'moon viewing' in Japanese, a reference to the contemplative tone the restaurant cultivates. The menu changes with the season, and the counter seats a very small number of guests per service.
Neighborhood & visiting
Tsukimi sits in East Village, one of New York's neighborhoods where authentic Japanese kitchens have taken root. The house does not publish an online booking link; call ahead to secure a seat, especially on weekends. Check the posted hours before you go — traditional sushi restaurants often close between service periods.
