New York City’s newest coastal getaway is just a ferry ride away. On May 9, just in time for outdoor dining season, Smorgasburg is channeling its open-air market model into a full scale restaurant concept. Six Coasts aims to be a destination restaurant with chef-driven cuisine and creative cocktails in an energetic, communal atmosphere.
Located on Soissons Landing with million-dollar views of the Lower Manhattan skyline, Six Coasts is a culinary road trip (or sailing trip, rather) from Nova Scotia to Bahia. It's a Pan-American seafood spot that celebrates coastal cuisine with a vibe that's as breezy as the harbor air.
At the helm is the powerhouse Chef Scotley Innis (of Hell’s Kitchen and Chopped fame). Known for his bold Caribbean roots, Innis is bringing some heat to the waterfront. The menu is a vibrant love letter to the Americas, featuring showstoppers like Escovitch Whole Fried Snapper with scotch bonnet pickled onions and Snapper Tiradito in a soursop leche de tigre. The Duck Chicharrón and Blue Crab & Plantain Croquettes are destined to become legends for both palates and pics.
And of course this coastal cuisine needs a cocktail pairing to match. The bar menu is bright, sunny and vacation-worthy. Whether you’re sipping the "Coco Melo" (a refreshing mix of coconut-washed vodka and watermelon shrub) or the "Rio Rush Hour" (a spicy cachaça and passion fruit blend), you’ll find it nearly impossible not to relax.
Whether you're looking for a romantic sunset dinner or a get-together with friends, Six Coasts is set to be a regular summer hang, with domino games, the rotating lineup of guest chefs and a curated soundtrack. This might just be the next great NYC backyard party.
Six Coasts officially opens on May 9 and will be open Thursdays from 11am to 10pm Fridays from 11am to 11pm, Saturdays from 10am to 11pm and Sundays from 10am to 10pm.
