Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Lower East Side

Outstanding service, all of the staff works together seamlessly. The octopus appetizer was delicious and we had a very good and reasonably priced bottle of red wine. The standout for me was the swordfish special, one of the best restaurant dishes I have eaten in a long time. It was super juicy and flavorful. I tasted my companions squid ink pasta and the dish was bursting with flavor. We had a great time and very pleasant experience.

The food was very good. Delicious PEI Pink moon oysters and other great selections. Hamachi crudo was great and I love the idea of local fresh ingredients. I’m glad we came- the halibut was a little too hard on the outside for me but the inside was nicely cooked. Brussels and potato purée were simply delicious. The brûlée cheesecake and cappuccino to finish helped power the 20 block walk home! It’s up there with the best of the restaurants I’ve been to. Prices were a little high but that’s what you expect in NYC.

The holiday menu was simply delicious! The service was phenomenal. I appreciated that the chef made changes to the menu to accommodate someone in our party with shellfish allergies.

It was a wonderful Christmas dinner! Food was excellent and the whole service crew was very friendly and attentive. Special thanks to Jasmine who has been phenomenal! We learned about the Christmas cabin from her the last time we were at the restaurant!

The experience was truly exceptional, with outstanding food service and a captivating ambiance. The attentive staff provided warm hospitality, ensuring every need was met with efficiency and a friendly smile. The restaurant’s elegant decor and soft lighting created a sophisticated and inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect setting for a memorable meal. We eagerly anticipate our return in the new year.
