Dame’s Seafood Experts Are Moving to Mammals

Dame, the seafood spot that opened to much acclaim during the height of the pandemic in 2021, serves arguably the best fish and chips in the city. But when its owners, Patricia Howard and Ed Szymanski, open their next restaurant,

Lord’s (506 La Guardia Pl., nr. Bleecker St.), in October, they’ll honor the tradition of London’s fabled St. John—among others—for a new spot that is, in Szymanski’s words, “bistro-y, but English and not French,” with a heavy emphasis on offal and homemade terrines. (But remember, Dame got its start as a pop-up offering bottarga-topped beef tartare and skewers of grilled duck hearts.)
