Lundy's was a beloved and nostalgic Brooklyn institution, re-known for it's fresh seafood dishes going all the way back to the 1920's. This culinary staple, recalled by many a New Yorker, revives vintage recipes and raw delights such as oysters, lobster, the "shore dinner", bisque and Huckleberry pie, while enhancing "surf & turf" it with sizzling porterhouse steak for two. Between vintage cocktails in crystal - stemmed glasses, live music and tunes from the 40's, 50's & 60's, this throw-back is a definite nod to a former era that speaks of old-world New York elegance and classic hospitality.

    The server was hearty and very knowledgeable. The sommelier was very professional. Everything we ordered was amazing. The Caesar salad demonstrated the chef's ability to reach perfection in an otherwise simple recipe. The chard dish was our table's favorite among the starters, as it featured a unique blend of flavors. The special Branzino for 2 is truly special, and the signature chicken did not disappoint either
