Recent Restaurant Closings on the Upper East Side (East 60s)

With many new additions to the neighborhood, that means there are closures. We’re sad to see some of these places go!



David Burke’s Fishtail
The view from
the rooms in the front of the building will certainly be different without

place soon to fill the void. 135 E. 62nd St
