Nix is a new restaurant from Michelin-starred chef John Fraser, drawing on his personal passion for cooking with vegetables. With the belief that eating vegetarian or vegan should feel more celebration than sacrifice, Nix features dishes that are seasonal, shareable and highly flavourful. Innovative cocktails, housemade sodas and an affordable, adventurous wine list complete the menu, all served in a lively Greenwich Village atmosphere.
Nix is presently open for dinner and weekend brunch.
Dinner:
Monday through Thursday: 5.30 to 11pm
Friday/Saturday: 5 to 11pm
Sunday: 5 to 10.30pm
