Don’t take my word, Condé Nast also says so as it’s ranked highest in NYC. Outside looks like residential apartment building but if you blink, you would miss the small sign with the restaurant name. I came a bit early and was not let in. Most ppl come late. I would just come exactly on time for best bet. I was greeted by many ppl and finally someone took me to my seat downstairs. It’s quite impressive how they transformed the apartment into a chic two floor loft. Just the renovations and interior decor by themselves warrant some high marks. I was really blown away by the interior and its beauty. Some customers dress up while others are quite casual. I was complimented for my cap which was a surprise because most fancy restaurants would force me to take it off. I won’t go back to those places. The chair is so comfy and kind of loungy which is what I like. The servers are quite chatty and even the manager is quite friendly. You can also tell the chef really enjoys cooking because each dish is introduced with a card with description of food inspiration, history, and ingredients. From the first dish to the last, I was thoroughly impressed. This felt like what Chef’s Table used to be but with more an Asian flair. Sadly, they are no longer as good for now. After having tried all the 3-Michelin starred restaurants in NYC (And some 2-starred ones) I think I can safely say this is the best in NYC if not one of the best. The thing is, I can’t imagine any other restaurant with this kind of space. It's so Zen. Some would complain it’s too expensive but all the triple Michelin starred places in NYC are expensive. Not to say you can’t get a great meal without breaking the bank but I think you will lose the service and nice ambiance. I honestly, want to go back here many times because I like the ambiance. Prolly only thing missing is a fountain with running water which they can put in front of the counter. My only complaint is every now and then, someone calls “Service” and all the servers would be chanting and serving the food. Feels a bit weird to me lol. Had like a factory or military vibe but hey, nothing’s perfect to everyone.

Phenomenal experience! Well deserved hospitality award. Friendly, personable- made you feel like you can connect with the staff. Food was hands down one of the best- enjoyed pretty much everything. Wine pairing is a must. The sommelier did an incredible job. Definitely our favorite dinner experience by far. We will definitely be back!

It was our third time back at Atomix and it was hands-down the most impressive meal I've ever had. There are too many dishes to discuss them individually, but the standouts were the kalguksu and the nurungi. The desserts were phenomenal as well. More so than any other time we've been to Atomix, this menu felt so true to its Korean roots. It is always so disappointing when I go to a modern/fusion Korean restaurant but the menu seems merely Korean-inspired. Here, each dish was clearly paying tribute to traditional Korean dishes and flavors. Everything tasted familiar and nostalgic, reminding me of the food that I grew up with but presented in a new and unique way. At its heart, it was Korean food, just elevated with French techniques and influences.The service was phenomenal as always. It was a bit disappointing that they raised their prices, but the economy is tough right now and it is still worth the visit. We ate this meal back in May and I still think about it months later. We cannot wait to come back!

I am really disappointed to be writing a disappointing review. I was looking forward to trying this restaurant for so long given the hype and the ties it had to one of my favorites - Jungsik. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the way it is set up is fantastic. The service was great and the entire staff was so kind and gracious. My main gripe, and what I typically care about when I go to a restaurant, was with the food. The food was very subpar. There was only one dish that I would have considered a bite that I would consider memorable which is unfortunate because that is something you would expect at a restaurant with this price tag and popularity. They served us sea cucumber, potato pancakes, and I can't remember the rest because again, it was so non-memorable. However I do have to blame the seasonal menu. Based on the pictures on yelp - I would have enjoyed the other seasons more. Other menus had wagyu beef, langoustine tartar, etc etc which are dishes that to me, are things I would have been expecting. While I think this restaurant is probably great, the menu they had on July 29th, was not something I would call tier A. It was probably one of the more mediocre upscale tastings I've had in my food career. I would give this restaurant another shot but I would have to wait for the menu to change. It is unfortunate how far in advance you have to book because you can't really choose exactly what menu you get to try.

I think much of the hype behind Atomix stems from the belief that most of the 2-star & 3-star restaurants in NYC feel extremely dated compared to what many 1-stars are doing.Now is the hype justified? I'm torn. I'd give the July 2022 menu 3.5 stars while the service/experience 5+ stars.The meal didn't start for me until the third course: red pepper noodles, jellyfish, and pine nut milk. The pine nut milk was sweet and excellent, pairing well with the unique textures of the jellyfish and noodles. The starters and courses that came beforehand were very safe.The other course I enjoyed was the sea cucumber, jidan sauce, and fermented tofu rice. It was a very nostalgic dish for me, and I'm always a fan of unique and native ingredients.The rest of the menu was somewhat whelming. I've had my fair share of tasting menus and have had better experiences in terms of the proportion of courses I've enjoyed. Ultimately, I felt like I was left wanting more.I feel bad giving this less than a 5-star rating because the people were SO nice and the whole experience was lovely. It's the full experience that I enjoy, and that goes for everywhere I eat at. I will definitely revisit Atomix since this current menu seems weaker than their previous ones.

Dining here was an unforgettable experience unlike any other. If you're looking for something truly special for a night out in NYC, this restaurant will 100% blow you away on both the food (taste AND presentation!) as well as the service. This is a multi-course meal designed around seasonal ingredients, complete with chef written narratives and artwork accompanying each dish. Every course was constructed with a unique point of view and an element of creative artistry. The menu includes a lot of seafood, but they do make modifications to align with your preferences. I recommend going for the wine pairing as well -- the delightful conversations we had with the sommelier about the wines were a major bonus on the whole experience.

There is a reason why it is on the World's 50 Best Restaurants. First and foremost, each dish was beautifully created and I enjoyed every bite. Each dish came with a card that explains the story behind the dish and ingredients. I loved how the Atomix team explained that the course was inspired from their recent trip to Peru and how they were able to incorporate several ingredients and flavors from their visit. Second, the service was beyond great. I felt comfortable and the servers were attentive but not overbearing. They explained each dish perfectly and recommended us drinks that would suit our preferences.Overall, Atomix is a great restaurant to try out. It is definitely pricey, but worth the food, quality and experience. Note that reservations open the first of every month at 3 pm ET. It was quite difficult to get a reservation as some time slots were already booked right when it opened. However, I was lucky enough to book a reservation.

They're definitely buzzy among the fine dining food scene among the world with so many recognitions for a reason! It's also one of the hardest reservation to grab. The hospitality team is one of the best I've ever come across, all super personable, attention to detailed, accomodating, and prompt. I honestly mentioned to them that one dish out of the many course we had fell short... but Atomix never recreates a dish like other restaurants and always has to be creatively challenged every time with every single dish when rotating out their menus and that's impressive and hard on its own. The uniqueness, quality and talent is shows through for sure. Majority of the dishes really took my partner and I away to a happy food haven with their Korean takes but in a gastronomic elevated aspect. It easily became my top 3 Michelin meal here in NYC! I can't wait to go back and try their bar room tasting with their cocktails. Also love the story-telling through the servers and the cards they give! & The wine pairing? -FANTASTICALLY PAIRED.

Great food but some dishes didn't completely wow me as I expected. Interesting flavors for sure. Dessert was probably my favorite course. Loved the decor, ambiance and experience tho! I honestly would give 4.5 based off food alone but the hospitality was so spectacular that I feel like it for sure deserves a 5! They give little cards so you can read about the inspiration of each dish and what's in every dish. Was very difficult getting a reservation here compared to other 2 Michelin star restaurants.

I was a bit unsure as I came into this experience. Atomic certainty has earned all the accolades and awards it has amassed. The almost too perfect interior and staff could be a bit alienating. Everything is clean. Everything is refined. The speakeasy club vibe of it is very appealing if you want an exclusive experience. That being said, I think older patrons may find it too young and hip. When you sit at the bar it is almost like eating with friends. This space was at one point an apartment. Now it's a posh upscale restaurant. Downstairs is the main dinning room. Upstairs is the simple bar space. The chef who runs this meal is on the verge of great things. The bartender who runs the pairing is a brilliant mind. All courses work beautifully together. Trust the experience. It will be different for everyone, as it is ever changing. But trust it will be amazing. If you ain't want to talk to the staff or the chef or the bartender this may not be for you. You also may complain I am not full after the modest nine course meal. But everything is cooked with care and every drink is considered. If you can get in give it a try.

Atomix is very intimate, and from the outside it's hard to even tell it's a restaurant. After entering the stylish bar/lounge area we were led downstairs into the minimalistic yet refined dining room. The counter wraps around the kitchen, with seats for less than 20 lucky diners, hence why reservations are hard to come by. That and their recent spot at 43 of the worlds 50 best restaurants. Everyone eats at the same time; plates are marched out with precision by a disciplined team who each carry 2 dishes. The dishes are explained beforehand via post cards with a beautiful image on one side and a very detailed description of where Chef gets his inspiration from as well as a very detailed ingredient list on the other. The post cards are placed image side up and the excitement of turning over the card to read the details is like checking your cards in texas hold'em. Dishes are again explained when they are place in front of you. The food is amazing, I don't want to go into too much detail because restaurants like Atomix have menus that change rapidly due to seasons. The only thing better and more interesting than the food, was the amazing, personalized, down to earth service we received from the amazing staff. No stuffiness whatsoever and once we started talking about food the staff began to debate each other which other restaurants were best and also gave us a long list of restaurants to try for out Flushing visit the next day.
