Not long ago, this tiny restaurant on Orchard and Broome was adorably named Little Giant, conceivably because the food was big, while the restaurant was incredibly small. Unfortunately, the food wasn’t quite big enough to keep the place afloat for more than a few years, and a new restaurant now occupies the space.
Dudley’s is the new establishment that’s now opened up in this still tiny dining room, and it’s brought to you by the folks that run Australian bar and restaurant hot spots Kingswood and Ruby’s. It’s got the distinct feeling of a place that’s gonna be a hot person hang out, regardless of whether or not the food is good. We hung here on a recent summer evening and had a really good time eating, drinking, and scoping the clientele…almost like we were in a nice part of the West Village as opposed to one of the worst parts of the Lower East Side. The food didn’t blow our minds, but we came away glad that this insane neighborhood has something a bit more…neighborhoody again.
The menu at Dudley’s is large and varied, from light bites and vegetable starters to sandwiches and hearty entrees. We recommend leaning heavy on the first half of the menu, and also having lots of drinks. There are a few very delicious things to eat, but there are also some let downs on the menu that you should know to avoid. Either way, this place is far more about the hang than it is a memorable meal. Go in with the right expectations and you’ll be glad it’s there.
