Spicy House arrives on 3rd Avenue

We spotted a new retail listing for 96 Third Ave. between East 12th Street and East 13th Street back in February … at the time, the space was home to the three-year-old Teriyaki Express & Sushi.

And the new tenant is up and running as of this past weekend — Spicy House … featuring "Asian cuisine and sushi."



Maybe worth noting: the retail listing for the address did specifically state "NO COFFEE, NO CHINESE FOOD, NO BURGERS, NO FROZEN YOGURT."

In any event, we haven't spotted any menus for Spicy House just yet.

Space currently housing Teriyaki Express & Sushi is for lease on Third Avenue

There's a new retail listing for 96 Third Ave. … currently home to the three-year-old Teriyaki Express & Sushi. The listing at Newmark Grubb Knight Frank says that the space will be available in March. The rent for the 1,400-square-foot space is negotiable.

Other particulars: "NO COFFEE, NO CHINESE FOOD, NO BURGERS, NO FROZEN YOGURT." Which makes sense given these are things the adjacent businesses are selling.

This side of the block has seen plenty of changes of late… AAA Amici Pizza on Third Avenue at East 12th Street closed last July. The space will become home to a Funkiberry FroYo shop. Next door, Han Dynasty opened in the fall. Then there was the new Nevada Smiths that opened last spring … ditto for Feast. And just across East 13th Street on the northwest corner is the new bar-restaurant the Brazen Fox. (Finally, The Wayside Cafe and Bar opened at 139 E. 12th Street last July behind the former AAA Amici Pizza.)

Seems like a lot of new businesses for one block these past 12 months...
