Le Sia signage arrives on 7th Street



Signage is up for Le Sia, the new restaurant opening at 11 E. Seventh St. near Cooper Square.

The restaurant will serve Chinese barbecue and various seafood, per the signage.

They were OK'd for a beer-wine license this past summer. (Their CB3 application is here.)

The store was home to Surma Books & Music for 98 years until June 2016. Third-generation owner Markian Surmach cited a decline in business and the expense of property tax and other charges related to owning the building. Public records show that the Surmach family sold the property to Icon Realty for $5.75 million.

We need some good takeout and delivery hole in the wall dim sum places. Not pretentious Tim Ho Wan which does neither. My Chinatown dim sum place is a million times better. Move to 1st Ave, Sunshine!

The industrialization of the East Village continues - this building was never built with the heavy industry of modern restaurants in mind - the motors and exhaust fans and compressors and freezers and blast chillers etc...
