Party Report: Tre Dici Steak
Posted at 02:04:17 PM in Chelsea restaurants, Restaurant openingsby Bottomless Dish
Last night was the opening party for new Tre Dici Steak, the newcomer above Chelsea Italian restaurant Tre Dici. Expect a bit of buzz based simply on the fact that entry is (for now) through an unmarked door to the side of Tre Dici, up an elevator, through an undistinguished hallway and then past one more unmarked door. That's, like, four levels of hidden restaurant cache. As you can see from the photo above, the space does achieve the New Orleans speakeasy the press materials promised, and as long as the lights stay low, it manages not to feel too cheesy. As for the food, well, once it came out, folks were clustering by the kitchen door to ransack platters. In addition to tender, grassy strips of steak on toothpicks, the highlight had to be softball-size slider, the juicy patties peppered with potent specks of garlic.
