Next Thursday, March 5th, we are so excited to host winemaker Stéphanie Berecz, owner of Kikelet Pince in Hungary 🇭🇺

Originally from the Loire Valley in France, Stéphanie studied oenology in Bordeaux before moving to Tokaj. She fell in love with the region and gained experience with an internationally recognized team before founding Kikelet in 2002. Stéphanie has been at the center of Tokaj’s revitalization since the beginning, and was among the very first to show the region’s tremendous potential for classically made sparkling wines.

Stéphanie will be pouring her sparkling and dry white wines from open to close, alongside a selection of very special Tokaj sweet wines from our cellar. Chef Elaine will be serving up thoughtfully paired small bites that will showcase Tokaji’s incredible affinity with food. All specials will be available á la carte throughout the restaurant.

Join us as we celebrate the unique and remarkable wines of Hungary’s Tokaj wine region! Book your reservation now through Resy at www.acoterestaurant.com.

Our Di Stefano Burrata, with pesto trapani & crostini :)

We always have a burrata on the menu, and the current set up is one of our favorites. Pesto trapani is a Sicilian variety of pesto (from the Trapani province), and made with garlic, basil, almonds, tomatoes, and pecorino. Its bright, herbaceous, and the makes the perfect bite with some burrata and crostini.

We always love starting our meal with a lil table burrata and think you should give it a try!!!

Speaking of delicious comfort… our pollo fritto :)

Half Mary’s Organic chicken, fried to crispy, juicy perfection. We pair it braised swiss chard, calabrian chile polenta bread, and our tangy hot honey. It has become a house staple since Chef Elaine put it on the menu a few years ago. It’s seriously SO GOOD!!

Have you ever had our pollo fritto??
