This lively chef-owned spot serves creative New American small plates and vibrant cocktails in a fun, upbeat atmosphere perfect for brunch with friends.
"Orchard City Kitchen earned a spot on the Michelin Guide’s Bib Gourmand list based on the strength of chef Jeffrey Stout’s cooking, but dinner isn’t the only time to sample the food. The brunch is popular in its own right, with Stout’s take on dishes such as “The Cure,” which is a version of budae jigae, or the ‘tot “poutine” with chicken fried steak and shimeji mushroom gravy. Add on a P.O.G. (passionfruit, orange, and guava) mimosa by the glass or carafe." - Dianne de Guzman, Cathy Park
"Tapas-style restaurant Orchard City Kitchen serves an array of creative, flavorful bites. The shareable dishes on the menu run the gamut and frequently change due to seasonal ingredients. Most visitors opt to dine in during brunch, when OCK offers typical items like benedicts, toast, and eggs – but incorporates a twist with ingredients like kimchi. “The Cure” is a modern take on the Korean budae jjigae or “army stew,” a spicy stew with Spam, ramen, tofu, and cheese, while another star on the menu is the tiramisu pancake, a fluffy, coffee-forward rendition of a hot cake. The restaurant also serves charcuterie for both brunch and dinner." - Paolo Bicchieri, Cathy Park
"Small plates take inspiration from around the world at Orchard." - Dianne de Guzman, Clair Lorell, Paolo Bicchieri
"Jeffrey Stout has clearly settled in to his position at the helm of this international gem, packed with a crowd of loyal fans, despite its rather modest shopping-center locale. Polished yet casual with a large front bar and patio, a meal here is best enjoyed with a group—so come prepared to max out the menu.Dishes may spin in various directions, but this team won't steer your wrong. Kick off with a cocktail; then tuck into fresh hamachi enriched with avocado-dill purée, persimmon, and deliciously tart sunomono. Garnished with peanuts and served with chili oil, those delicate shrimp-and-pork dumplings are an evergreen hit. For dessert, olive oil cake with lime-brittle popcorn and roasted corn custard delivers a pleasing contrast in flavor and texture." - Michelin Inspector
