Roosting on Riis’ piece at Tribeca’s Church Street Tavern

Written By Unknown on Senin, 22 September 2014 | 18.18

Tribeca's Church Street Tavern is a long way from that neighborhood's humble beginnings.

The restaurant, at 313 Church St., will open its doors this week, along with Bandit's Roost, the exclusive lounge downstairs, Side Dish has learned.

The latter was named after the famous photograph taken by crusading social reformer Jacob Riis, who documented the city's dangerous, poverty-stricken tenements in "How the Other Half Lives."

It's safe to say that both spaces, from Tribute Hospitality Group, are a step up from the city's slum days.

The restaurant will serve classic modern American fare like crispy artichokes with lemon-tarragon yogurt and Rock Hen with sherry reduction, as well as an extensive raw bar. Chef De Cuisine Chris Burke has worked alongside notable chefs David Bouley, Daniel Boulud and Gordon Ramsey.

The 2,000 square-foot space will seat 70 people in long, black leather banquettes, along with tables and hightops near the bar.

Downstairs is a tony 1,000 square-foot space for 100 "VIP" guests that will be open from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

Riis' photo from 1888, "Bandit's Roost," depicts the then mob-riddled Mulberry Street. The lounge is modeled after a speakeasy from that era with large photos from the period.

Weekly codes will be emailed to "select VIP guests" to grant them entry to private events and parties, said Jon Behling of Tribute Hospitality Group.
