The restaurant officially opened its doors this week after hosting several NYFW events.
American Bar, located up the street from Cafe Clover and Clover Grocery in the West Village, is not a health-centric restaurant. But many of the same ingredients that have made Cafe Clover a success — intentional design with fashion-world appeal, a focus on quality sourcing — have transferred over to the team’s take on American Continental cuisine.
“I’m going to places like Polo Bar, or in L.A. I’m going to Tower Bar,” he says. “And there wasn’t really that downtown. You find it in Midtown, and you find it at old-school places like the 21 Club or Michael’s, all these places in the 40s and 50s. So essentially I thought, OK, I can open up another restaurant. It just has to be a little bit different. Try to keep myself on my toes.”
While the menu isn’t inherently gluten-free or vegan, their other restaurant experience means that they created the menu with dietary limitations in mind. “The through line that we’ve been talking about is being able to eat in an indulgent way and really enjoying your food, and enjoying things that maybe you have restricted in the past or you’ve been mindful of using,” says Carone. “But we’re using the best of those ingredients.
“You can go to hotel lobbies, or you can maybe go to the bar at a restaurant and hope that there will be a spot to sit,” says Carone. “And it’s a problem when you’re going on a date, when you’re going on a business meeting, that there’s no dedicated space. So you can go hope that there’s going to be space, but maybe there won’t be.”
