Signage recently arrived for Mokyo at 109 St. Mark's Place between Avenue A and First Avenue.
This is a new venture via Kay Hyun, the chef-owner of the popular Korean restaurant Thursday Kitchen on Ninth Street.
Mokyo looks to have a similar small plates menu as its Ninth Street sibling. CB3 OK'd a beer-wine license for the address back in July. At the time, Mokyo's proposed hours were listed as 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. daily, with a brunch service from noon to 3 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
The previous tenant here, the Israeli-Mediterranean restaurant Timna, closed in March after nearly four years in service.
