    Sinsa is the perfect example of an outstanding food program combined with an excellent wine/beverage program come together in an approachable and enjoyable experience! The Sinsa team seamlessly and consciously crafted Korean-fusion throughout the food and drink menu which is really difficult to do right. My must-have food items were the rice thief (with uni add on) and the KFC fried chicken! Insanely good value. As someone also just learning about wine, the staff made my wine selection very easy and non-intimidating. The service is top notch, and staff is always super friendly and accommodating - it’s not hard to believe they were recognized on the Michelin guide just a few months after opening. So glad that I have a new spot to bring friends again and again in the East Village!
