Blocking the sidewalks and never closing the doors/windows (plus loud music) are his specialties. "Little Wisco East" is unwelcome here!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-6436048814267835952019-03-05T02:16:29.628-05:002019-03-05T02:16:29.628-05:00Have any of you been to Great Jones St lately?

Simon and the Whale is a hotel restaurant. Very different from his others. Fedora, Joseph Leonard, and Perla (before it moved from Minetta Lane) were all well run, had great service, excellent food and catered to LOCALS, not the business suit crowd. I'm hoping for more of the same here, I'm happy he's finally found a spot in the EVMrNiceGuynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-7283063131613309272019-03-04T16:04:24.781-05:002019-03-04T16:04:24.781-05:00It's amazing that people will sign a one or tw...It's amazing that people will sign a one or two year lease for an apartment above a place like Great Jones - which had been there for 35 years and always had a late night bar crowd and music - and then they complain there is noise. Why choose to lease that apartment? Amazing arrogance. Maybe the firehouse should also be relocated?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-86680197925549261602019-03-04T15:05:07.947-05:002019-03-04T15:05:07.947-05:00This guy opens upscale, lavish, boutique restauran...This guy opens upscale, lavish, boutique restaurants with pricey menus for the corporate foodie crowd. Just look at Simon and the Whale on 23rd St for a flavor of what is to come. Anyone hoping for a return to the old Great Jones Cafe might as well just give up and go apply for an Amex black card right now.
