The Happening: Rothschild’s Grand Opening In Brooklyn

“In the heart of Brooklyn’s Boerum Hill, a restaurant brings classic New Orleans flavors to new American dishes.” – Rothschild’s press release.

On July 21st, Rothschild’s celebrated its official opening. Mutineer Magazine sent out one of our favorite beer bloggers and underground correspondent, Genevieve Shuler (aka “The Hops Honey”), to partake in the opening festivities and scope out the scene. Here is her report:

Rothschild’s decor was designed by Cognoscenti et al, who salvaged Art-Deco cinema lights from a New Orleans Movie Theatre to give the restaurant a “New Orleans meets contemporary Brooklyn feel”. The restaurant also has an elevated lounge, which overlooks the classic zinc bar and dinning room.

The menu features New Orleans inspired fare (such as seafood gumbo, catfish po-boy’s, shrimp and grits), with a local Brooklyn twist. “Rothschild’s is really about community and offers accessible, yet high-quality comfort food made with ingredients from local sustainable markets.” — Stan Williams, owner of Rothschild’s.

The “Down-Low” on Rothschild’s:

Currently, Rothschild’s open daily for dinner from 5-11pm then offers a late night “Supper” until 1am (Thursday-Saturday). Brunch is served Saturday and Sunday from 10am-4pm. Rothschild’s intends on expanding hours to include lunch this fall.
