    Ultra is a special gem in midtown. The food was outstanding and the service unbelievable!!!! Our server Marc-Antoine was so helpful. His suggestions on what to order as appetizers and the main course were incredible. He went out of his way to make our dining experience amazing!! I am so sad that we only discovered Ultra yesterday. They are permanently closing next week!! This restaurant would have been my go to in midtown!! It is owned by the same company that runs Daphne but having been to Daphne, this is hands down a far superior dining experience. The food was incredible. Please consider re-opening in another location!!! We absolutely loved Ultra!!!

    This was such an amazing dinner experience! Took a friend who’s visiting from the east coast and she was blown away! Love how they were on top of it in terms of refilling tea! The fish was super fresh, they were able to accommodate my allergy. They did not rush us to get the bill let us chat u til we were ready. Looking forward to bringing my family back to try their teppanyaki experience!
