Masaharu Morimoto's Philadelphia restaurant — the Iron Chef's American flagship, in a striking Stephen Starr room with undulating ceiling lights and an open sushi bar. The omakase is the move; the menu balances classic Japanese technique with the kind of theater that made Morimoto a household name. For destination Japanese dining in a room built to feel like an event.
