Originally the grand dining room of a 1912 hotel, this restaurant space had undergone numerous renovations, covering up its marble mosaic floors and oak paneling. The new owner envisioned a modern bistro with a historic flavor; we restored the 5,900 square foot space to its former grandeur.
A new entry vestibule allows ADA access from the Temple Street Alley. A new stair, new bathrooms and a private meeting area are tucked into the back areas of the ground floor to allow for an open central space. A bar area with booths, mixed seating in the dining area and a café/dessert bar complete the ground floor. The mezzanine’s mix of lounge and table seating allows for flexibility. Behind the scenes, two modernized kitchens bring sophisticated cuisine to food lovers of New Haven and beyond.
