Muku's ten-seat counter, which chef Manabu Asanuma calls a 'tight squeeze,' became one of the city's most talked-about tables after earning a Michelin Star roughly two months after opening in 2025-26, the fastest star turnaround in NYC history according to Time Out New York.

With only ten seats and two nightly seatings, demand for the $295-per-person kaiseki menu has outpaced the room's tiny capacity, per Time Out New York, though the outlet did not detail a specific booking platform or wait length.
