American Brass in Long Island City

Looking for a new relaxed upscale dinner destination on the waterfront? American Brass in Long Island City has the perfect set-up for both summer weather and colder days with fairy-lit outdoor seating facing the waterfront views of Manhattan and Gantry State Park, as well as a chic and spacious indoor dining setting. 

The restaurant opened a month before the Pandemic hit NYC and is now looking to the future with sustainable practices including a beer list from locally sourced Long Island City breweries and produce from New York Farms filling the pantry.

Executive Chef Kevin McGinley, former chef of Michelin Star restaurant Bátard, presents a delicious Dinner menu as well as Brunch and Mid-Day menus on the weekends. 

Endless Summer cocktails, and the Sullivan cocktail.

Appetizers: Crispy Pork Belly (preserved apricot, pickled mustard seeds, chicharron) and Charred Carrot Salad (hazelnuts, fried halloumi, pickled peaches), who knew carrots could taste this delicious!

Entree: Long Island Duck (polenta, hakurai turnips, fig-pepper jam)

Entree: Atlantic Cod (sweet corn, guajillo Chile, black trumpet mushroom) wonderful blend of sweet and savoury

Desserts: Peaches and Cream (caramelized peaches, almond cream, praline) Chocolate Crepe Torte (Guanaja Chantilly, sour cherry compote, mocha crunch) brilliant light dessert with complimenting sweet and sour

With the breathtaking views paired with the grandiose menu, we would not be surprised to see people from all over the city to come experience this place.
