Gramercy Kitchen debuts on 3rd Avenue


[Photo yesterday by Harry Weiner]

Gramercy Kitchen made its official grand opening yesterday on Third Avenue at 17th Street. (Thanks to EVG reader Harry Weiner for sharing this news!)

The Kitchen takes the place of Gramercy Cafe, which closed in January after 24 years in service. (A few readers felt as if the Cafe's food had declined in recent years.)

Looks as if the owners are going for an upscale diner vibe. From Just Opened New York:

They’ve revamped the menu with elevated classics like creative Coca-Cola drinks and chicken and waffles with balsamic syrup or disco short ribs topped with cheese curds and gravy.

And the Times had a blurb on the opening last week:

Diner-style food prevails here, with an open kitchen, glass tile, a stretch of counter and tables to seat 70. Breakfast, lunch and a dinner menu — featuring chicken and waffles and veal short ribs in a dish very much like poutine — are served

Gramercy Kitchen has a website, though no menu posted just yet. The hours are 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.

Gramercy Kitchen shaping up on 3rd Avenue


[Photo from 2015 via Facebook]

Back in January, the Gramercy Cafe closed after nearly 25 years in business a few blocks away on Third Avenue at 17th Street.

Signage left for patrons thanked the Gramercy Cafe crew for their years of service ... with notice that the space would reopen as Gramercy Kitchen.

Anyway, the paper is off the windows now...





We heard that they could be open as soon as next week. A reader also said the new proprietors are NYC diner vets. So there's that.

The interior is still shaping up... but it's starting to look diner-y...



H/T Harry Weiner!
