HORTUS NYC, a Michelin-recognized restaurant in 2020, continues to innovate its approach to modern Asian cuisine, emphasizing seasonal dishes crafted by Executive Chef Youjin Jung. With an impressive background at renowned establishments like Babbo, Del Posto, and Osteria Mozza, Chef Jung brings a unique fusion of her Korean heritage and refined culinary expertise to the menu.

Chef Jung was recruited by General Manager Suhum Jang, her lifelong friend and classmate from the Culinary Institute of America. Together, they have elevated the dining experience at HORTUS, showcasing creative dishes that blend tradition with a contemporary flair. The newly revamped menu, launched in October, further highlights Korean flavors in a modern, approachable style.

Guests can also enjoy live jazz performances every Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from 7 PM to 10 PM without any cover charge, creating a perfect pairing of world-class cuisine and live music.

    My wife and I happed to be in the city and wanted to get dinner after a broadway show. We went to Hortus ONLY to be underwhelmed my the menu and overall service. * We found ourselves in debate to stay or pivot. We ended up getting some apps and heading for the exit. At the end we felt the hospitality was largely lacking and menu poorly presented. I would never go back and don't expect the restaurant to make it past a year unless they have a major turn around in the areas highlighted.

    We came here for NYC restaurant week, and we thought the dinner deal was amazing. We got so much food, and it was delicious! We ordered the duck and short rib which were just savory and satisfying. The panna cotta was the perfect mix of tart and sweet. Overall, we had a great experience, and we will be coming back!

    Food was Okay. Probably didn’t order the right thing. My friend’s short rib was too salty to eat, so she didn’t finish it. Our server was efficient, but she had an unpleasant attitude. Maybe it’s her personally…
