A vegan seafood restaurant has opened in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn. The restaurant’s menu focuses on plant-based versions of traditional seafood dishes, such as fish sandwiches and clam chowder.
The establishment occupies a ground-floor space on Franklin Street, previously home to a small cafe. The interior features a modest dining room with seating for about 30 guests.
The owners aim to cater to vegans and those looking to reduce seafood consumption for environmental or health reasons. The menu includes items made from ingredients like mushrooms, seaweed, and legumes to mimic seafood textures and flavors.
Prices for main dishes range from $12 to $18. The restaurant also offers a selection of non-alcoholic beverages and a few wines.
This opening is part of a broader trend in New York City, where plant-based dining options have increased in recent years, including alternatives to meat and seafood.
