Sidewalk Cafe

The sidewalk cafe for the business at Greene and Nostrand was approved by Community Board 3 on Monday.

The liquor license committee argued about discouraging top-tier chefs from coming to the neighborhood.

Community Board 1 approved Bel Aire Diner's application to add eight sidewalk tables.

The board approved applications for Eugene & Co., Pilar's Cuban Eatery and Stonefruit Espresso.

The plan by the popular Franklin Avenue restaurant was approved by a CB8 committee on Monday night.

A host of al fresco dining options in Central and Riverside parks is slated to reopen soon.

King Tai Bar will open soon in a gutted one-story building next to a community garden in Crown Heights.

Riposo 72, which locals blasted for hosting online daters, had its sidewalk liquor license approved.

UWS residents said Riposo 72's bid to serve booze outdoors would expose kids to "Internet people."

The 12-seat cafe is the fourth outdoor eating space on this stretch of Dyckman Street.

The restaurant is hoping to return its five tables and 20 seats to the outdoor space. 

The restaurant's owner told Community Board 7 he took expensive steps to remediate its noise problem.

The café would consist of 30 tables and 15 chairs on the corner of Fulton Street and St. James Place.

The restaurant must comply with noise-mitigation measures in order to have its permit renewed.

Community Board 12 voted against the cafe after its owner and a councilman disagreed on a closing time.
