Description
Inspired by Kentucky's white oaks and the art of the cooper, the space houses a scratch kitchen led by Executive Chef Jorge Madriz. The menu puts a contemporary spin on traditional plates, resulting in popular lunch items like a rich short rib grilled cheese. Inside, a comfortable mix of NYU students and neighborhood locals gathers around the bar and tables. The venue fills up quickly, particularly for weekend brunch, when you should expect long waits if you haven't booked ahead.
