Huître on Court Street : Will Court Street's Newest Restaurant Ever Open?

oo







Will this place ever open? Construction of the new restaurant Huître on Court Street has been moving at a snails pace. From the looks of it, they are far from opening.
But that did not prevent our Community Board 6 vote on allowing outside tables. The vote was unanimously!
This place does not even have inside seating, yet. How can C.B.6 make an informed decision at this time? The Board always seems to bend over backwards for restaurants.
Pardon me for asking, but what would have been the harm in waiting until the place opens to see if it will be a good neighbor before allowing them to add extra seating outside?
Well, we will see, that is, if the place ever opens up.

And at an 'oyster's' pace too!

Court Street's newest restaurant IS open. Luna Rosa, located between 9th and Garnett, is serving great Italian food. I've been there twice now, and highly recommend both the homemade gnocchi and the seafood pasta dish. Good stuff.

Hey, that's great to know. How are the prices?

Prices at Luna Rossa are very modest. I don't think there was a dish over $20. My wife and I had two entrees for just over $30 combined.

As of Monday, they were still waiting for their liquor license to clear (they hoped it would do so by this Friday), but til then it's BYOB. So grab a bottle of red and check it out!

That sounds lovely. Maybe we will check it out on the week-end.
Who needs oysters anyway!
