General Assembly (CLOSED)

A Polynesian playhouse makes way for a Pan-European grill: Fourth Wall founder Michael Stillman (Quality Italian, Park Avenue) transforms his old Hurricane Club into a 170-seat bistro. Chef-partner Craig Koketsu turns to Francophilic fare, dishing out plates like lentil-crusted fried skate wing, duck confit with apricots, and two takes on steak frites (Colorado lamb, Creekstone beef). Modeled after a Parisian salon, the restaurant is done up Art Nouveau–style, with oak countertops, herringbone wood floors and a cellar room featuring floor-to-ceiling bottles of Lillet.
