Past the doors of this 1920s conservation house lies a majestic vision. The edifice of the building is enhanced with a towering pediment, drawing the eye to its high ceiling. Rich terracotta hues warmly envelop the 120-seat restaurant, as ambient light fixtures and custom-made rattan furnishing work together to conjure a space that feels like someone’s home. It’s a transformation that would have you digging deeper in your memories to be able to reconcile as the old Velvet Underground.
