The West Village has a new hotspot, and it’s bringing serious European flair to one of the neighborhood’s most beloved corners. Lume West Village, pronounced “Lu-me,” has officially opened at the prime intersection of West 4th and Perry Street—where longtime favorite Extra Virgin once stood—promising an all-day Italian-French dining experience with a chic, cosmopolitan vibe.
The brainchild of restaurateur Yohann Pecheux—known for St. Tropez Wine Bar, St. Tropez Soho, and Mino Brasserie—Lume is all about blending Old World flavors with modern style. He’s joined by a powerhouse team, including Michelin-starred Executive Chef Gérald Barthélémy, whose resume includes a stint at Le Cinq in Paris. Together, they’ve created a menu that takes guests from morning coffee and croissants to late-night cocktails and Wagyu carpaccio.
Early risers can swing by for an artisanal espresso and a flaky viennoiserie, while lunch brings indulgences like the Pinsa Burrata and a decadent Wagyu Lume Burger with truffle mayo. As the sun sets, Lume’s dinner menu turns up the heat with housemade pastas like Bucatini Cacio e Pepe, Mediterranean branzino, and a juicy Hanger Steak. And for those who like their cocktails as sophisticated as their plates, the bar serves up a Chai Espresso Martini and a rye-based ‘Le Petit Secret.’
But the real star is the striking U-shaped bar, where a mesmerizing light installation gives the restaurant its name. Cozy red banquettes, bronze moldings, and a whimsical paper chandelier by designer Ingo Maurer composed of love notes, add to the inviting ambiance.
With happy hour deals, a late-night menu, and a private dining space for intimate gatherings, Lume West Village is shaping up to be a must-visit. Whether you’re a local looking to relive memories of the spot’s past or a newcomer eager to make fresh ones, Lume is setting the scene for a glowing future.
