M. Wells Steakhouse wins Timeout New York award

Congratulations to Hugue Dufour and Sarah Obraitis, whose M. Wells Steakhouse won Best New Steakhouse in Timeout New York’s 2014 Reader’s Choice Food & Drink Awards earlier in the week. The duo launched their much anticipated restaurant in 43-15 Crescent Street in Court Square in November and it has drawn rave reviews from critics.¹²

Here is an excerpt from Timeout New York’s write-up:³

“Never order the fish” is but one of the many steakhouse tenets that Hugue Dufour and Sarah Obraitis subvert at this madcap chophouse, whose sheer whimsy made it stand out from a pack of traditionally hedge-fund-baiting meat havens. The gleefully eccentric couple behind M. Wells Dinette run a steakhouse by way of surrealism.
