August
Description
For a small space, August packs a lot of punch. This tiny, candlelit West Village restaurant manned by Terrence Gallivan, formerly of Gordon Ramsay at the London NYC, serves up both French classics and deceptively simple Italian dishes, like cassoulet with roasted duck, white beans and pomegranates, and garganelli with seared baby squid prepared with chilies and poppy seeds. And the wood oven isn’t just for show: Try a wood-fired pizza topped with wild mushrooms and cracked duck egg.
