The Meatpackers Takes Over Encore Space in Meatpacking District - Eater NY

"Top Chef France season three winner Jean Imbert’s French restaurant Encore, which opened in Meatpacking late last year, has already been replaced with a new American brasserie following a brief and mysterious closure. Given the restaurant’s size and location, owner Eric Cerato and Imbert decided it needed to go in “a different direction,” a spokesperson tells Eater." - Carla Vianna

Encore is definitely the place to go in Meatpacking District. Great decor. The food is outstanding, don't skip the dessert, you have to try the exotic sphere! The personnel is welcoming and attentive. I've tried the house cocktail Justine, even twice, and I fell in love with it. I would definitely go back and recommend it!

GREAT NEW RESTAURANT IN NEW YORK!! I knew Jean Imbert from France and what a pleasure to find his new address here in Meatpacking. The food was amazing, service ultra friendly. You discover here dishes unconventional, really tasty, with beautiful dressing! Congrats! Keep Going!

Encore was phenomenal! Not only was the food amazing, but so were the staff. The atmosphere was comfortable and enjoyable; this is exactly what should be expected for an encore appearance. I highly recommend Encore to anyone who wants to enjoy an amazing dining experience.

Every bite is carefully balanced to be delicious. The avocado toast is unlike any other—what appears to be a whole avocado in fact has had the seed replaced with a magic sauce and an egg yolk. The “skin” of the avocado has also been replaced in an accomplishment of verisimilitude. The environment is cozy yet refined in equal measure. The team is knowledgeable, hospitable and cohesive! Such a delight to encounter such authentic originality and excellence. Thank you.

Incredible new farm to table restaraunt in Meatpcking. Encore offers a fantastic food and cocktail menu with a beautifully decorated space. I highly recommend the Exotic Sphere dessert and the Dolly cocktail!

We had a great dinner at the Meatpackers. I never had a duck breast that good in my entire life (maybe just a bit too salty though but the cooking was perfect). Good vibe, great decor.

Friendly service but not great with accuracy or timing. We had a large party and got the wrong # of items for appetizers, the wrong drinks for some who got cocktails and had to ask a multiple times for refills and waited a while. Food was okay. Venue itself is nice.
