Why You'll Love It

When you hear phrases like farm-fresh ingredients, award-winning dishes, and one of New York’s most acclaimed new chefs, you probably aren’t thinking Upper West Side. Think again: Dovetail loves to surprise you, and its unlikely setting is just the beginning.

With all of the critical praise for Dovetail, you might expect extravagant decór and stuffy ambiance. But the spare, exposed-brick interior is like a visual palate cleanser, and perfectly prepares you for Chef John Fraser’s imaginative creations.

Seasonal ingredients play off each other with what is quickly becoming recognized as Fraser’s signature culinary wit. When you order the tender, delicately salted sirloin steak, don’t be surprised that the side is beef cheek lasagna—though you may be surprised at how well they work together.
