An Iconic West Village Restaurant Is Opening in Brooklyn
Briefly

Chef Jonathan Waxman is set to open a new branch of his iconic Manhattan restaurant Barbuto in Brooklyn Heights by June this summer. The new Barbuto will mirror the successful West Village location, featuring the same adored Californian Italian dishes like roast chicken and gnocchi. Waxman's personal connection to Brooklyn, stemming from his family roots in Bed-Stuy, fueled this expansion, along with his previous collaborations with the luxury brand 1 Hotels. His culinary journey includes an earlier venture in 1984 at Jams and the reopening of Barbuto in 2021 after a temporary closure.
