BIN 5 - "ONE OF STATEN ISLAND'S TOP PLACES TO EAT" - NY TIMES

Downtown Staten Island is becoming known for many great things. The New York Wheel, Empire Outlets, Lighthouse Point, Urby, Makers' Space and so many more are part of a quickly changing landscape attracting millions of visitors from the Staten Island Ferry to the Bay Street Corridor via Staten Island Railroad or MTA bus.

While visitors are discovering amazing views, lush parks and captivating cultural institutions, they are also learning that Downtown SI is home to some of the greatest food in New York City - a fact that is supported by many New York City publications.  In fact, the New York Times called Downtown SI restaurant, Bin 5,located at 1233 Bay Street in Rosebank, "one of Staten Island's top places to eat," and they are absolutely right.

Bin 5 is a foodie's dream come true. A quaint, well appointed eatery located right along the Bay Street corridor just blocks away from Ft. Wadsworth, Bin 5's Executive Chef Stephen Lee and Bartender, Danny Ippolito, serve up impressive food and beverage options at a reasonable price.

Bin 5 is Michelin-Rated and is the recipient of the Staten Island Advance Readers' Choice Award for Best Restaurant of 2015 and Best Fancy Cocktails of 2016 and 2017. With credentials like that you know that your meal will be memorable.

What we like best about Bin 5 is the fact that seating is limited to just a few tables. Not only is the food fresh from the kitchen but the staff is attentive to your every need. It is also quiet enough to enjoy dinner conversation. 

In the warmer weather you can dine al fresco in the rear courtyard under a beautiful pergola surrounded by lush greenery.  Wrought iron chairs and tables covered in crisp linen cloth are perfectly placed upon level brick pavers in the outside dining area. No need to worry about ruining your Manolo Blahniks when you choose to dine outside because the owners paid attention to every detail when designing this lovely courtyard.

That same attention to detail is evident in the food. Every dish and beverage is created using local, fresh, seasonal produce, prime meats, craft spirits, and hand-selected wines.

The Bin 5 menu was assembled with care. You can choose small plates such as a Strawberry salad or lamb chops served over polenta or full entrees such as short ribs, stuffed pork chops or eggplant lasagna.

Every Saturday and Sunday, Bin 5 offers an extensive brunch menu which can be paired with their perfect weekend cocktail menu. Find out more by visiting their website.
