New to the city is Eel Bar , which opened late in the summer on the Lower East Side. From the team behind Cervo’s, Hart’s and The Fly, Eel Bar offers food and wine inspired by Southern France and the Basque country. Nearby, the Flyfish Club will open the doors to its tiered membership club on East Houston. The dining club and lounge features three floors, with a restaurant led by chef Josh Capon and omakase counter with chef Masa Ito. The team behind The Musket Room and beloved downtown restaurant Raf’s will debut Cafe Zaffri in the soon-to-open hotel The Twenty Two, located on 16th Street near Union Square.
A few blocks north, the team behind Michelin-starred Rezdôra has opened Massara in Flatiron, in a larger space and with a more expanded menu beyond pastas. Le Veau d’Or , which debuted in 1937 on East 60th Street and is New York’s oldest operating French bistro, has been revived by Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr of Frenchette and Le Rock. The restaurant has been owned by just three families in its 87-year history and was beloved by the likes of Orson Welles, Grace Kelly, James Beard, Jacqueline Onassis and Marlene Dietrich. The new Le Veau d’Or will offer items like pommes soufflés caviar rouge à la crème, pâté en croute, duck magret with cherry sauce and a daily fricassé poulet avec vin jaune. On the Upper East Side, exclusive members club Casa Tua will open its first New York location inside the newly renovated Surrey Hotel; the main dining room will be open to the public.

The nightlife experts at Golden Age Hospitality that operate The Nines, Le Dive , and Deux Chats will open a Parisian-style wine bar called Elvis in September. Located on Great Jones Street in NoHo, Elvis takes over from Great Jones Cafe (which inhabited the space for 35 years) and will offer small plates and natural wines. In early September, the Catch Hospitality team will open The Corner Store in SoHo in a prime location on Houston Street and West Broadway. The classic American menu leans into nostalgia, with dishes like Wagyu Pastrami Reuben and Dirty Martini Oysters serving as an homage to the city’s dining landscape. Uptown in Hell’s Kitchen, the Romer Hotel will open piano bar and supper club So & So’s , an homage to the Broadway scene nearby.
Over in Brooklyn, the see-and-be-seen crowd is flocking to Tenny’s , which opened this summer at SAA and is run by the hospitality gurus of Palm Heights. The menu skews American bistro with European sensibilities and offers breakfast, lunch and dinner. Danish East Village bakery and restaurant Smør is expanding to Clinton Hill this fall. The restaurant, located in a converted warehouse, will serve a Scandinavian menu with a bigger focus on dinner service. And for late nights? Freshly imported from Los Angeles, Desert 5 Spot has arrived in Williamsburg. Between the mechanical bull, rotating set of DJs spinning country tunes, a Dolly Parton-themed nook — and a menu of tacos, nachos and cocktails of course — we expect to see many a party here this fall.
