The Noortwyck

The Noortwyck Will Get a Bigger, More Ambitious Sequel | Eater NY

"Opened in June 2022 by British chef Andy Quinn and co-owner Cedric Nicaise, this Greenwich Village restaurant delivers elevated yet approachable cooking with an emphasis on everyday comfort; dishes include seeded Parker House rolls, white asparagus cacio e pepe, linguine with clams, and striped bass with saffron gnocchi. Critics praised its high-level, precise technique and 'EMP-level' ambition at a fraction of the cost, with a New York Times two-star review noting the chef’s exacting, minimalist sensibility. The operation of roughly 40–45 employees has navigated pandemic-era staffing shortages and rising ingredient costs that forced role consolidation, but the team intentionally focused on grounded hospitality rather than chasing Michelin stars." - Melissa McCart
