Sunny Lee, owner of the 24-seat Korean restaurant Sunn's in Chinatown, emphasizes the value of small spaces in creating a personal and engaging dining experience. The menu is concise yet complex, reflecting thoughtfulness in each dish. The restaurant, which opened in late 2024, has quickly gained popularity due to its location and Lee's established reputation from previous culinary ventures. While walk-ins are welcome, reservations are limited, making dining there a sought-after experience. Specific dishes like the Sunn's salad highlight the restaurant's seasonal approach to fresh ingredients and community atmosphere.
“My first job in New York City was at Blue Hill in the West Village back in 2008, and it was like working on a pirate ship.”
“Sunn's is not some sort of austere culinary temple, either. It's friendly and welcoming... to drop a treat or give a friendly hello.”
