Taking its name from the small, tender green olive harvested along the shore of the Mediterranean, Picholine opened its doors at 35 West 64th Street in October of 1993. Three years after its creation, The New York Times awarded the restaurant a three-star rating. Today, Picholine continues to draw rave reviews for both lunch and dinner from the city’s most discerning diners.
The restaurant draws its strength from the formidable talents of its Chef-Proprietor, Terrance Brennan. Having trained in some of Europe’s most renowned kitchens, he remains inspired by the seasons and features the highest quality ingredients available. Staying true to the bright, sunny and intense flavors of the French-Mediterranean region, his dishes are true originals in terms of their texture, flavor and presentation. For his efforts, Brennan was nominated by the James Beard Foundation as being one of the Best Chefs in New York in 2002.
The finely appointed dining rooms of the restaurant can seat up to 96 people for its lunch, pre-theater, and dinner services. L’Olivier, the restaurant’s spacious private dining room can accommodate an additional 24 guests, and Picholine’s intimate Wine Room can seat 8 guests. In one corner of the 1500 bottle-lined Wine Room (which houses a myriad of interesting producers, appellations, and vintages) sits the now famous Cheese Cave. This temperature and humidity controlled room houses over 60 of the world’s finest artisanally-made cheeses, where they are cared for and ripened prior to service.
