Town House Kitchen + Drinks is surely developing and finding their footing in New Rochelle.
If you are an oyster lover, this is a place for you to try. I trust very few places with oysters since I have been horrified by some I have ordered in the neighborhood and beyond. Even at places on our beloved City Island where you would think you could order good, quality oysters safely.
Aside from the opening week where they managed to impress me with service and food. They did have a few (minor) areas of improvement to work on. I am happy to report that they are doing well and pushing out really nice dishes. They have added some new dishes and I heard directly from a manager that they are close to releasing a few more. I am very eager to return because I am sure whatever they cook up will be delicious.
First trip out during opening week we tried the seafood tower, mussels, and the pork Milanese. All were very good. My least favorite was the pork because it was slightly overdone but nothing worth complaining about. The mussels were bursting with flavor and the tower was a great way to try their cold fresh seafood.
This trip I ordered two rounds of oysters and their newly added spinach dip. Highly recommend. The wine list should also be mentioned. It's small but well thought out. I have tried a few bottles and my favorite so far is a reisling from finger lakes. It's truly a gem. The space is gorgeous and they have big plans to utilize all the floors in the near future. The service alone will have you planning your next visit out.
MAINE OYSTERS
house cocktail sauce, mignonette, lemon
They are properly cleaned and so fresh. I appreciate that the flesh of the oyster is left untouched after shucking and I also love that they serve them with extra horseradish on the side without you having to ask. Excellent touch.
SKILLET SPINACH-ARTICHOKE DIP
fresh mozzarella, pecorino, parmesan
This came out super hot as it is prepared in a cast iron skillet. They amount of cheese may make some uncomfortable but for a cheese lover like myself I found it to be perfect! Loaded with fresh spinach and left nothing to be desired other than maybe some extra chips
Give them a try.
