Uptown's Quad development has some of the city's most sought out dinner reservations.
State of play: The business development features an open square of dining options, including the Michelin-starred Mamani, its newly-opened bakery and other restaurants.
Domodomo Kō, which now serves lunch, blends Japanese and Korean cuisine with a la carte and tasting menus.
Vibe check: The space feels modern and sleek, like the exterior of the Quad. Seating is intimate, and the music is low enough to carry on a conversation.
Expect to choose your own sake glass from a tray and to get detailed explanations with each dish.

What to order: Four hand roll set — we chose oyster mushroom, negi toro, scallop and blue crab.
We started with the hamachi crudo ($19), pictured above, and ended with the shiso ice cream ($8).
