Main Street Landing has arrived in Brooklyn’s DUMBO neighborhood. The highly-anticipated restaurant is a vibrant addition to the culinary landscape, offering a blend of comforting yet complex flavors, Northeastern coastal inspiration, and an inviting atmosphere.
With a focus on seasonal New American fare and a spotlight on an expertly curated raw bar and cocktail program, Main Street Landing invites guests to indulge in comforting classics and dishes that test the boundaries of what coastal New American can offer.
“Our vision is to create a dynamic space where the cultural tapestry of DUMBO merges seamlessly with the energy of New York City, offering a New American gastropub experience that celebrates the neighborhood's spirit,” said Jess Goldfarb, Managing Partner.
Executive Chef Justin Slojkowski (Acme, Roberta’s, Blue Hill, and Fatty Crab) is showcasing his passion for local, domestic ingredients. Look for signature dishes like the Heritage Chicken Share Board, a comforting roast with sweet and smoky undertones; and The Patty Melt, features a house blend of chuck, brisket, and short rib cooked in dry-aged beef tallow.
Spanning two floors, Main Street Landing boasts a picturesque outdoor patio offering stunning views of the Manhattan Bridge with a menu that caters to both locals and visitors alike. The ground floor offers a light and airy ambiance, characterized by a traditional 12-seat bar adorned with organic wood rails along with cozy corners and spacious alcoves for groups of any size.
Upstairs, guests can indulge in a classic lounge setting with breathtaking views of DUMBO and ample TVs carrying the latest sports. Architectural elements include meticulously crafted millwork, concrete finishes with brass accents that enhance the charm and authenticity.
Vincent Bolognini, the team’s Beverage Director, is offering coastal-inspired craft cocktails like the Main Street (Greenhook Gin, blanc vermouth, green apple, salted cucumber shrub, mint) and the Bushel & Vine, made with an alluring toasted black sesame mezcal, alongside mango, Fresno, and lemon. A carefully curated wine program, meanwhile, celebrates small, domestic producers. The restaurant is also paying homage to local Brooklyn Breweries.
Main Street Landing is located at 15 Main Street in Brooklyn. For more information, visit mainstreetlanding.nyc
