360 in Red Hook, Brooklyn has been on my radar for a while and I got a chance to go over the weekend. Part of the burgeoning restaurant scene in Red Hook, 360 is open for dinner Wednesday through Sunday and features a value packed price fix menu at $25.
The store-front dining room is small, probably holding no more than 30 people or so. In additition to the price fix option, the French and English menu contains another 7 or 8 a la carte entree options (priced between $13 and $22) and an equal number of appetizers (priced between $4 and $9). The wine list is substantial with most bottles ranging between $30 and $50.
Off the price fix menu I ordered the goat cheese tart with olive tapenade and for my entree I ordered the grilled Hake with various julienned vegetables and other goodies. For desert I chose the orange/lavender cake. The food was simply delicious. Rich, savory, excellently prepared, and served without undue wait. In addition to our price fix selections, we also shared a homemade pork pate and a traditional Andalusian noodle dish, each adding additional dimension to our meals. One of the people in our party knew the head waiter and we followed his advice regarding wine and were not dissapointed.
This review is frankly not doing justice to how we felt during and after our meal. Complete satisfaction straying into giddiness. Undoubtedly, two bottles of wine, a round of champagne, and a round of desert wine played a role, but make no mistake, this place rocks. With a great wine list and reasonable prices, a cozy ambiance and knock out delicious food, 360 is a sure fire winner. Make a reservation and splurge on a car service - you'll be a fan after one visit.
Red Hook is located at 360 Van Brunt Street in Red Hook, Brooklyn. A couple choosing the price fix menu and sharing a bottle of wine should expect to spend about $100.
