Secchu Yokota is a hidden gem in the East Village, offering some of the best tempura omakase in the country. The ingredients are always fresh, and the cooking is exceptional, with fair prices considering the quality. The space is very small and intimate, creating a warm and engaging atmosphere. The chef prepares all the ingredients in front of guests, using light oil that makes the tempura not oily at all, allowing the freshness of each ingredient to shine. Service is friendly, knowledgeable, and entertaining, with staff explaining each dish and offering suggestions on how to best enjoy them. The menu features a multi-course tempura meal that highlights seasonal ingredients and offers a variety of flavors and textures over approximately 2.5 hours. The chef's French background influences the unique style of tempura, blending different culinary traditions. The restaurant truly captures the omotenashi spirit, with a playful touch of combining Japanese and western flavors. The tempura is perfectly fried, a difficult achievement even at other restaurants, and the service maintains the elegance of washoku while providing a warm experience. The small size of the space makes it an ideal place for celebrating special occasions, as the staff can make each experience unique. Overall, this restaurant provides an outstanding dining experience that never disappoints and keeps customers coming back as regulars.
