"The Consulate is taking over the longtime home of El Rio Grande on East 38th Street, turning the corner into a 300-plus-seat dining destination that pairs polished French-meets-New American cooking with a very strategic warm-weather perk: a sprawling outdoor setup made for lingering."
"Inside, the buzzy space can move easily from cocktails to dinner service. But outside is the real draw: an expansive terrace shared with its sibling concept next door, with room for more than 200 guests across the property."
"The menu is equally wide-ranging. Seafood is a clear anchor, with a raw bar lineup that includes tuna tartare with yuzu, oysters, shrimp cocktail and seafood towers."
"Together, the two concepts are meant to function as a fluid night out-start with dinner, end with drinks."
The Consulate opens on April 17, transforming the former El Rio Grande into a 310-seat venue featuring a French-New American menu. The restaurant includes a spacious outdoor terrace accommodating over 200 guests. The menu highlights seafood, sushi, and French staples, alongside various main dishes. A second concept, At the Office, serves as a high-end sports bar, providing a casual late-night atmosphere. Together, these concepts create a seamless dining and nightlife experience.
