Signage is up now for Avenue C Restaurant, the name of the new establishment that's taking over the former Edi & the Wolf space at 102 Avenue C between Sixth Street and Seventh Street. (Thanks to Vinny & O for the photo from Saturday.)
We don't know much about this venture. In January, an applicant — listed as Rosey Kalayjian — appeared before CB3's SLA committee for a new liquor license for the space in what was described as a sale of assets. The CB3 materials cited the proposal as "an American restaurant" with hours of 11:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Kalayjian has previously managed restaurants in Westchester and NYC.
As for an opening date, someone wrote "coming soon" on the front window.
Edi & the Wolf — named for its executive chefs, Eduard "Edi" Frauneder and Wolfgang "the Wolf" Ban — closed in April after nine years in service due to "increasing operating costs," Eater reported.
Hopefully this one isn't as sketchy as the equally uncreatively named "C Lounge"
ReplyDeleteAt long lost the return of “Mr. C’s” 😂😂😂
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to this new venture. I hope it's somewhat affordable and has veggie options.
ReplyDeleteI know the owners and I am very excited to eat at this new restaurant- it’ll be great!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for this new restaurant! Bringing class to our neighborhood. I stopped by to take a peak of the menu, great American cuisine and fabulous cocktails
ReplyDeleteThis place looks so good. I walk past everyday and it went from Sanford and Sons to a beautiful trendy looking restaurant. The buzz in my building is that some Chef from some big restaurant is working here now but a much better price point. Who knows but I must say the place looks amazing!!! The succulents are magnificent and the black mat paint is everything. Kudos to the designers
