Blue Bear Tavern getting close
Blue Bear Tavern getting close
 |
The group that brought you Zavino (112 S. 13th St.) is close to putting more roots down in the bustling Midtown Village restaurant scene esper Hospitality is reviving 216 S. 11th Street as the rustic bilevel tavern Blue Bear. (It was originally slated to be named Sherlock's.) Blue Bear, slated for a "spring" opening, will feature a classic Americana menu from chef Brent Hazelbaker. He'll offer up a signature burger, topped with smoked gouda, applewood-smoked bacon and caramelized onion, in addition to other meaty standards, including New York strip and filet mignon. Lighter fare Nicoise salad with sushi-grade tuna; a chopped salad tossed with house vinaigrette; tuna tartare will also have a place on the menu. If you're in the mood for an extra-hearty meal fit for a lumberjack (or any large man in flannel), you'll probably gravitate toward the buttermilk-fried chicken breast with pancetta gravy and aged Swiss cheese served atop a novelty-size buttermilk biscuit. They'll be keeping the gourmet pub fare within reason, with sandwiches and salads topping out around $13 and entrees ranging from $18 to $24. We'll keep you posted as official opening dates come in.
