Profile

This venue is closed.

The long, narrow Soho space that was Bar Veloce, then Bar Tonno, and finally Bar Sasa is reborn once more, this time with a confectionery bent and a provocative pastry chef installed in the open kitchen. Will Goldfarb, best remembered for his dessert derring-do at Papillon and Cru, was enlisted by a pair of French private chefs who wanted a dessert bar to call their own. Goldfarb focuses on high-concept thematic tastings, often grouped in quartets and based on ideas which can be paired with quartinos of wine or pots of exotic tea.

Too pricey for this overrated dessert restaurant, bad service, bland food, worst thing is, they cannot even give you proper menu info and are dishonest about menus. Was served items not listed in menu description. i.e. nuts etc...

Innovative, delectable

Avant-garde cuisine that works. I've had some of the best desserts I've ever eaten here (particularly the cacao fruit sorbet dusted with coco nibs). Sleek minimalist bar, great lighting, perfect for dates. Highly recommended.
