Global Flavor - Local Pride

At New World Bistro Bar we serve our own style of Global Soul Food. The healthy, lustily seasoned and assertive dishes of the American Melting Pot.

Many of our ingredients are regional, organic and sustainable and that list keeps growing! We use fresh local tomatoes in summer, dried in winter, fresh corn in summer, polenta in winter... Simple stuff, right? We can all live better if we begin to expect restaurants to make great meals without encouraging chemists to invent indestructible foods.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and support.
