Oxomoco, Prime Meats, Zauo, Now on The Resy Hit List

Because Oxomoco is on fire. Eater’s Robert Sietsema says chef Justin Bazdarich “hit the culinary jackpot,” New Yorker’s Hannah Goldfield calls the food “exceptionally delicious,” and, of course, it’s all powered by an open flame. Plus, with brunch served daily, take note: breakfast burritos are abundant in Greenpoint.

Because pay tribute to this Carroll Gardens institution, and fill up on schnitzel and bratwurst while you still can. The Franks are serving up a “Last Waltz” menu for a few more weeks, before the space becomes an expansion of Frankies 457 Spuntino coupled with an of-the-moment natural wine bar.

Because the catch of the day is Zauo: an out-there concept this city didn’t know it needed. At the Japanese import, diners are given the chance to fish for their dinner from a tank within the restaurant, then select how they’d like it prepared. You won’t know until you try it.

Because at long last, Balaboosta has been resurrected. Chef Einat Admony’s cherished locale is now operating out of the West Village, in the space formerly known as Bar Bolonat. Rejoice over your fair share of fried olives, short rib zabzi, and wild mushroom pasta.

Because this popular London-born restaurant has crossed the pond, which means New Yorkers can feast on elevated British fare like fish & chips with minted English peas and Beef Wellington with Madeira sauce, accompanied by a view overlooking Central Park. Oh, and afternoon tea is included.

Because another Londoner, The Hoxton Hotel, has partnered with notable neighborhood restaurateurs Jud Mongell (Five Leaves) and Zeb Stewart (Cafe Colette) to bring us Klein’s—a warm yet stylish all-day restaurant that begs for you to stay a while.

Because put it on your bucket list: Shoji at 69 Leonard serves up the kind of multi-course omakase that dreams are made of. Just ask Pete Wells, who recently granted chef Derek Wilcox’s intimate 12-seat counter a loving three stars.

Because the Cobble Hill-based pair behind esteemed La Vara and now-shuttered Tekoá have opened a neighborhood charmer where seafood is the star. Come for dishes like whipped mackerel with piri piri oil and avocado-crab spoon-salad, and stay for the coastal wine list.

For reservations, call the restaurant at (347) 987-3710.

Because this part-lab, part-eatery is a welcome addition to the Shake Shack band. Consider it a test kitchen for new classics (read: chicken nuggets) and innovative treats, like black sesame milkshakes.

Walk-ins only.

Because lunch is on at Frenchette, which means more opportunities to dine at this picture-perfect bistro. Given that it’s easier to snag a Resy here midday, it’s in your best interest to get a business meal on the cal, stat.

Because who said fall signals the end of ice cream season? Morgenstern’s brand-new Greenwich Village flagship, boasting 88 flavors, means this treat is forever. Gotta try ‘em all!

Walk-ins only.
