There are a few things we wish New York had more of. Clean subways, 80 degree weather without 100% humidity, and beaches that don’t look like the establishing shot of an E! True Hollywood Story. We also wish there were more new restaurants that genuinely surprised us. Not by flambeeing dishes tableside or by sabering bottles of vintage champagne, but with subtlety. Places where you notice new, unexpected things each time you visit. Basically, we wish we had more places like Davelle.
Davelle is an all-day Japanese restaurant that’s about the size of a studio apartment you’d find in this part of the Lower East Side. There are three small tables and eight seats at a bar, which shifts from serving coffee to wine and sake as the day goes on. Like the one-room space, the food seems fairly straightforward at first glance. But sit down here for dinner, and you’ll find that every dish is packed with intense, unusual flavors that make you think through your food vocabulary like those kids on stage at the national spelling bee.
