"Gotham is opening in the East Cesar Chavez neighborhood as a casual New York-styled tavern from the co-owners of Cafe Malta. Initially, it will be open for dinner only. The menu includes classic dishes such as house-made pastrami, oysters with Bloody Mary mix, cold-smoked salmon, and burgers. They will serve Neapolitan pies using a wood-burning pizza oven inherited from the predecessor, with toppings like pastrami, clams, and prosciutto. Desserts feature cheesecake and mocha tarts. Inspired by Nick Goulding’s favorite New York taverns, the restaurant offers a drink for every spirit, along with beer and wine, including Brooklyn Lager and Guinness Stout. The space has been revamped with a new bar section and taller bar tables, while retaining old booths and offering outdoor dining on the patio. Dinner service is from 4 to 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and until midnight on Friday and Saturday, with plans to expand into brunch and lunch in the future." - Nadia Chaudhury
