Loïc | Bon Appétit
"GO HERE: for a predinner pregame. Loïc is just up the street from Elena and a bit farther down from Arthurs Nosh Bar, so it’s worth stopping in for an early pét-nat and a better-than-it-needs-to-be bar snack. ORDER: whatever visiting wine producer is pouring that night. For food, get the seafood platter, which is classic enough to satisfy and creative enough to impress; any of the pastas; or small snacks listed at the top of the menu. THE VIBE IS: chill yet a tad reserved. The intimate space (read low ceilings) encourages that kind of zen-like atmosphere; this isn’t isn’t the place to rage. PRACTICAL STUFF: Open Tuesday to Sunday 5 p.m. to 3 a.m., with the kitchen serving food until 11 p.m. Closed Mondays. Call for reservations, which are recommended. —Claire Saffitz" - Condé Nast
