Part of The Circle Group

Nōksu is helmed by Chef Dae Kim, a Korean native, who found his calling here in the U.S working at many restaurants, most recently Per Se.

Nōksu offers a 12-course tasting menu served at a 15-seat counter within our kitchen. Chef Dae presents imaginative interpretations of Korean fare through the lens of modern American technique and sensibilities.

The space is designed by Claire Soojin Kim of Team Standard Design. Inspired by Korean ink-and-wash paintings, the space reflects the calm yet intense atmosphere found in a valley. An eight-seat private dining room is located to the rear.
