May Hot Openings

From fresh up-and-comers to New York restaurant legends, this is the latest batch of bars and restaurants that should be on Ur radar.

The Grill
The midcentury American restaurant is the first of three to open in the Seagram building, which is undergoing Major Food Group’s $30m reimagining of the iconic Four Seasons space.

From partners Diego Moya (Casa Mono, Cure Supper Club) and Zach Ligas (Estela, Semilla), Hemlock offers an innovative vegetable-focused a la carte menu.

Miss Ada
Modern Mediterranean fare with Israeli influences from chef/owner Tomer Blechman comes to Brooklyn.
