Description

This small, sleek space punches way above its weight with dazzling neo-Levantine cuisine. Many kitchens boast about using fresh ingredients, but Shmoné takes that philosophy to another level, creating a new menu daily (though some items stick around). The cooking relies on the grill all the way through to dessert, where grilled figs atop Chantilly cream have made an appearance. Dishes aren't repeated but they're certainly memorable, as in thin slices of hamachi or flatiron Wagyu slid off a skewer tableside and boasting smoky tenderness. The flavors are impressively dialed in and make for a focused meal that is surprisingly approachable and humble.
The interior has a celebratory ambience—snag a seat at the counter for views of the bar and open kitchen.
