Abe & Arthur's

Editorial Review

Tenjune crew takes over Lotus, drops large-scale American bistro. Eponymous Abe and Arthur (grandfathers of Michael Hirtenstein and Mark Birnbaum) look down over main dining room. Vintage/modern getup, with clubby earth tones, lots of leather. Bilevel space really soars, watch it all from sweet mezzanine perch. Kitchen masterminded by Franklin Becker, serving up new American with a seasonal slant. Creekstone steaks and raw bar. Beef carpaccio and tuna tacos to start.  Downstairs lounge takes more exotic name (Simyone, Eugene Remm's grandpa), rocks even more exclusive scene.
