The Restaurant

Cherry Restaurant

The Restaurant

Cherry, a joint venture by restaurateurs Jonathan Morr (BONDST, Republic) and Eugene Morimoto, opened in Chelsea in January 2013 with a menu of French-inspired Japanese fare. A restaurant first and a lounge second, Cherry’s innovative menu is enhanced by an impressive sake program, headed by Sake Sommelier Chris Johnson, replete with roughly 80 sake varietals on any given night, as well as an extensive wine list. A selection of spirits will match its tempting food. Cherry also offers signature cocktails and Asian-inspired desserts, which will provide the cherry on top of Cherry.

Choi’s flavorful menu boasts originality in each of his carefully constructed dishes. In a bold reimagining of modern Japanese cuisine with French influences, inaugural dishes will include miso glazed sea bass, tuna tarts, uni-poached egg, and foie gras with short-rib gyoza. Cherry’s varied menu is ideal for sharing and tastings.

Cherry also offers a new, intriguing take on sushi and sashimi. Along with traditional offerings, diners will discover delicacies designed by Cherry’s own sushi artisan, Josh Bedell (BONDST). A daily, market-driven Omakase menu will offer a traditional chef’s-choice courses with a creative twist to complement Cherry’s dinner menu.

Desserts feature playful twists on classics such as Suntory bread pudding with Yamazaki whiskey and toffee sauce, and Ginger Mille Crepe with ginger mousse and plum wine caramel.

Cherry’s subterranean dining room features dark polished woods, lush red velvet and ornate sconces. A warmly lit, crimson entrance leads guests to the romantic speakeasy-esque space which evokes the feel of mid-century Paris. Plush seating accompanies slightly lowered, wooden tables, designed to enhance the conviviality of the dining experience while hand-selected art works of Japanese-inspired portraits and imagery punctuate the main dining room.
