Status: Opening Tonight

This evening, farm-to-table king and all-around nice guy Bill Telepan will open Telepan Local, a cozy American restaurant in Tribeca. This is a more casual affair than his Michelin-starred Upper West Side restaurant. The menu is full of shareable small plates, like grilled cheese "pane con tomate," shrimp poppers, fluke crudo, grilled octopus with almonds, corned beef tongue, escargot with chickpeas, and lamb tartare with black olives and fennel. The menu also has three sourdough pizzas.

Telepan Local was designed by Home, the North Brooklyn studio that also created the interiors of Paulie Gee's, Donna, and Goat Town. The space has a large bar in the front, and a square shaped dining room that's lined with reclaimed wood and subway tiles. Will the young Downtown foodies embrace Telepan's cuisine, now that it's served in a stylish Tribeca space? Only time will tell. Check out the menu below, and please send any early reports our way.
