Korean Steakhouse · Tableside · Flatiron
Simon Kim's Flatiron steakhouse earned a Michelin star by treating Korean barbecue as a fine-dining ritual. The room is hushed, the cuts are American prime and Japanese A5, the kimchi service is its own course. Cote made the case that a tabletop grill could carry a tasting menu — and won.
