Casual yet Elegant American Cuisine
The small, below ground dining room has the feeling of an exclusive, well-bred supper club. Framed by backlit banquettes and warmly illuminated brick walls, and with a cozy bar at the entrance,
New York Magazine recently deemed this culinary destination a critic’s pick: This may be the best low-profile restaurant in town. Dan Barber is a master of the gentle arts of poaching and braising, and much of his best material—pasture-raised turkeys, non-stressed Berkshire hogs—comes from the biodynamic farm and restaurant he and his brother run at an old Rockefeller complex upstate called Stone Barns. Although not as extreme or innovative as Craft, Blue Hill is the city’s other seminal Greenmarket haven, so expect a certain amount of hushed reverence here, a certain amount of ecstatic whispering about the quality of the summer peas.
