Best of Boston

Brookline’s newest Korean restaurant has Michelin pedigree—several of its international siblings have received the coveted Bib Gourmand designation. This means reservations can be hard to come by, but patience is rewarded with a thrilling omakase that showcases family recipes passed down to owner Hajime Yamazaki. Most notable are the samgyetang, a comforting ginseng chicken soup, and a breathtakingly simple soy-sauce-marinated raw shrimp.
