EN Japanese Brasserie marks the New York City debut of Bunkei, Bunko and Reika Yo, sibling restaurateurs from Japan. EN (one definition meaning "destiny") will offer a modern take on traditional Japanese home cooking. The classic brasserie theme of simple, hearty fare is translated through Japanese ingredients and sensibility by the highly-regarded Koji Nakano, who leads a team of chefs from Japan. EN features unique dishes rarely seen in New York, from many distinct handcrafted types of miso paste to a selection of homemade tofu and yuba (soy milk skin). Showcased against a backdrop of warm woods, antique carved panels, an open kitchen and reflecting pool, EN is housed in a cavernous, formerly industrial space in the West Village. Private dining rooms overlook the restaurant from the second floor and were designed to resemble the living room, dining room and library of a traditional Japanese home.

One of the Best Japanese restaurants

I took my cousin there for her birthday and we both really enjoyed our experiences. The restaurant is spacious and has a great ambience. You can see the kitchen when you walk into the main dining area and there is pretty much no barrier between it and you. It was very nice for us to see what was being done to our food. The service was fast and friendly…many good looking people working there, too. It is also a great place for a romantic date. Although it was the most expensive Japanese food I’ve ever had, but it was worth the $$.

Dishes I tried:

Assorted Sashimi

Possibly the freshest sashimi I’ve ever had!! The fish tasted like they just came from the ocean…

Saikyo Miso Black Cod

Very satisfying cod (both to my eyes and my taste buds)…a little on the sweet side, otherwise, it would have been a 5/5. However, I have to say that it was grilled to perfection. I’ll upload a picture of this later…and you’ll see what I mean…

Green Tea Ice Cream
