Why You'll Love It

He was trained by the legendary Chef Conrad Gallagher. He’s an Irish transplant with crazy-good cooking skills. And now, Chef Sam Byrne is at the helm of The Purple Fig in New York—lucky you.

The Purple Fig is equal parts fancy French bistro and quaint neighborhood restaurant. A chic mix of brick and purple walls sets the stage for creativity, artistry, and passion. Roasted scallops with foie gras. Black bass pan roasted with truffle crushed potatoes. Espresso duck egg crème brûlée. This is a chef who knows what he’s doing.
