RER 5.28.14

Bait & Hook just celebrated the bar/restaurant’s re-launch—new menu, but same seafood territory. The sea themed bar makes the seafood the star while offering a wide array of beers, wines and specialty cocktails. Under Consulting Chef Dave Martin, Bait & Hook has revamped its menu, taking visitors on a vacation while sitting in the East Village eatery. A trip to Maine to devour the freshest of lobster, or down the shore to enjoy seafood at its peak, oceans as playgrounds. The menu is thick with seafood favorites, infused with genuine passion, flavor and veritable warm weather.

Vibrant fish tacos, topped with lively cilantro and white onion all nestled in blue corn tortillas, bring the surf while no-nonsense juicy chicken and wagyu sliders bring the turf.

Oysters and cocktail shrimp left in their purest state, recall summer, sunshine and balmy temperatures, fresh and free. Their impressiveness lies in their naked quality and condition.

While the hot crab and artichoke dip emanates warmth and coziness even with crunch of the toasted french bread, reminiscent of bond fire memories on a cool summer evening.

The lobster mac and cheese too brings warmth to mind with its mélange of familiar and luxury. Large lobster chunks come together seamlessly with the mix of cheeses and noodles, the salt of the cheese complements the sweet sweet lobster meat.

-->Coconut shrimp and Kung Pow calamari give a different twist to the seafood fare, combining flavors and influences to create a layered experience. Plump shrimp are breaded and spiked with the dulcet notes of shredded coconut, and octopus rings are coated in firey hot and sweet sauce with the crunch and earthy feel of peanuts—bringing together land and sea.

Bait & Hook is not just a bar with TVs and decorated walls, it is a place to enjoy the fruits of the sea while taking a metaphorical day trip outside of the City. With an updated menu and cool sips, Bait & Hook will be a great hang out to escape the oppressive New York City heat.
