Hear & There

Hear & There is an listening bar and omakase restaurant in Williamsburg from husband-wife team Howard Ng and Samantha Nie of Third Date Hospitality, who have brought together a talented team, including PDT alum Larry Gonzalez to oversee the cocktail program and executive chef Mark Garcia (known for Gaijin in Astoria). Offering two distinct experiences, Hear & There features a front space serving classic cocktails with a modern twist and an otsumami (Japanese small plates) menu, while tucked away behind a sliding door in the back of the bar is a 22-seat omakase counter. Walk-ins are accepted in both areas, and reservations can be booked up to 14 days in advance.
