Gordon Ramsay is the ultimate authority on Michelin star-quality food. When he visits New York City, his preferred Michelin-star restaurant is Cote, a Korean barbecue joint.

First opened in June 2017, Cote is the only Korean tabletop barbecue restaurant in the world with a Michelin star and the only Michelin-starred steakhouse in New York City.

In High Life's "Gastronomic Guide to North America," Ramsay said, "The service and design is on point, but what stands out is the quality of the meat."

Cote highlights the lighter flavors of a Korean gogijib (steakhouse), serving fermented vegetables alongside high-quality aged USDA prime beef.

A unique feature is the smokeless tabletop grill that allows your server to cook your dry-aged, prime cuts of beef right in front of you for the freshest, tastiest steak possible.

Cote also offers an extensive, James Beard-nominated wine list and a stylish, dimly lit cocktail bar with a speakeasy vibe beneath the restaurant, called Undercote.
