Irving Mill
 

(212) 254-1600
116 E 16th Street (between Irving Pl. & Park Ave.)

 

 
 

Recently opened in the former Candela space, Irving Mill has managed to transform the formerly dark décor into a warm, bright, welcoming venue. Chef John Schaefer is serving a seasonal American menu that is greenmarket-driven with French and Italian influences. The front Tap Room is open to walk-ins, but you will need reservations for the main dining room. Start with the Chicken-Liver Crostini or Fisher Island Oysters and move on to the Roasted Arctic Char or Beef Short Ribs. The wine list is extensive and features many reasonably priced wines.
