The Manhattan outpost of Sauced is now in soft-open mode at 47 Second Ave. between Second Street and Third Street. (Don't be confused: the front window still has the previous tenant's name, New York Adorned, the tattoo and piercing shop.)
Like the original location in Williamsburg, Sauced does not have a wine list ... and they are available "by discussion." ...
Co-owner Vincent Marino provided a brief tour of the space, including a backroom available for private events...
He introduced me to chef Quentin Peron, who oversees a small, ever-changing menu of small plates. (On this visit, they served mushroom pate, a bellota plate, and a cheese/charcuterie board, among other items.)
Hours:
Monday-Thursday, 5 p.m. to midnight
Friday, 4 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Saturday, 3 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Sunday, 3 p.m. to midnight.
You can find updates on the Sauced Instagram account.
And Sauced will eventually have a new next-door neighbor once the Boiler Room moves here from Fourth Street.
