Japanese Restaurant · Murray Hill · 86 tips and reviews
The Corcoran Group: This hip, London transplant is just what Midtown needs. The cocktails, service, and food are all on point - come for specifically the beef tataki, prawn & black cod dumplings, and the miso chicken.
Nikhita Mahtani: Yummy!! Get the Zuma special chocolate, the tuna salmon tartare, the truffle mushroom pot and the scallop skewers.
Julialouisegraves Graves: I recommend the spicy fried tofu with avocado (my fave), lobster tempura, spicy beef, and tuna tataki but pretty much everything melts in your mouth.

Mexican Restaurant · Murray Hill · 95 tips and reviews
Brendan Hasenstab: The Baja fish tacos here are the very best I've had ANYWHERE. That's Orange Roughy in there, and it is cooked to absolute perfection. Add a nachos normales to start and you've got a great dinner.
Jeffrey Zeldman: Opened in 1959, great, family-owned Mexican restaurant. Serious food, not Tex-Mex. Fish tacos are to die for. You can rent the private party room downstairs.
Halstead Property: The Quesadilla Camarones has the perfect proportion of Gulf Shrimp and melted, smooth cheese and is accompanied by roasted tomato salsa that adds just the necessary tang to the dish.
