Profile

Owners Will and Rob Shamlian of Fat Baby and Mason Dixon fame court a stylish Lower East Side following with this packed corner gastropub. Dark slat wood walls and hefty banquet-style tables have an almost medieval allure that’s urbanized by brushed steel countertops and industrial hanging chandeliers. The glass-encased, intriguingly sexy space would be enough to draw a crowd, but nearly eighty international beers (half on draft) and impressively elevated bar food—herbed popcorn, foie-gras-filled prunes, and haute grilled cheese attract as many foodies as partiers. The descriptive drink list simplifies the search for the perfect draught, like Canada’s Unibroue Ephemere, a stellar white beer with a tart apple punch and “subtle vanilla” finish. Better to spend your energy plunging garlic toast into a massive bowl of beef and veal meatballs enriched with ricotta cheese or sate your appetite with one of the hickory, kobe or lamb burgers flopped onto toasted brioche buns. — Alexandra Vallis
