NYC Dining: Legasea Seafood Brasserie

When you think delicious seafood is hard to find in Manhattan – think again. Legasea Seafood Brasserie at the Moxy Hotel makes this challenge possible.

A new addition to the infamous TAO Group – Legasea Seafood Brasserie is described as  an upscale modern eatery. Led by Executive Chef Jason Hall (formerly of Craft and Gotham Bar & Grill) who is serving sustainable classic seafood fare that’s also claimed to be easy on our wallets.*wink wink*

Being crammed in the epicenter of NYC  where there’s very limited personal space. It’s always refreshing to find somewhere where you can get a break. At Legasea guests can sit comfortably in the restaurant’s spacious and nautically themed dining area. Think of this experience to be reminiscent of mini-getaway. For a short moment escape the city’s honking taxi cabs, hot dogs and pretzels and let Legasea transport you and your palette to somewhere fresh and tasty.
