Ed’s Chowder House

New York, NY

Cozy and casual.  Serious seafood.

Listed in Adam Platt's "Where to Eat 2010: The Essential Survey of Really Good Food in New York Right Now" NY Magazine, December 2009.

With the intention of “bringing Montauk to the heart of Manhattan,” Ed's Chowder House, located in the the historic Empire Hotel, delivers the bounty of the Eastern shoreline to the Upper West Side. Collaborating Chef Ed Brown (chef/owner of Michelin Star-rated restaurant eighty-one and author of the Modern Seafood Cook) serves up his refined yet unpretentious take on regional seafood favorites in a breezy, casual atmosphere.

Cuisine

Alongside the namesake variety of hot and savory chowders, including Sweet Corn, New England-style Clam, Manhattan-style Blue Crab and the signature Ed’s Loaded Shellfish Chowder, the menu offers a wide variety of options ranging from elegantly composed favorites like Scallop Ravioli with white wine sauce and herbs or Peppered Tuna Steak Frites with herb butter to simply grilled selections of seafood, steaks and chops. In the Chowder Bar, more casual favorites like lobster rolls, local steamers, fish n’ chips and crispy oysters take center stage along with refreshing cocktails, a carefully selected handful of local craft brews and all-day dining menu from 11:30am daily.
