 John Bishop opened Bishop’s restaurant in 1985 with a commitment to organic, local produce, and was a pioneer on 4th Avenue long before it became the West Side’s hippest food corridor. He warmly greets his guests (celebrity and otherwise), ably assisted by a polished staff. Every inch of the place bears the Bishop trademark of understated elegance, and bright, graphic colors, from the uncomplicated entrées to the contemporary art on the walls. With chef Andrea Carlson, the food exhibits the same simplicity and zealous use of the aforementioned ingredients, including charcuterie butchered on-site from whole animals. Menus change weekly and might include a starter of pork terrine, garlic confit and smoked prosciutto bianco; seared sablefish with sautéed baby turnips, leeks and cabbage accented with thyme butter sauce; venison with rye berry risotto; or double-smoked bacon-wrapped pheasant breast paired with sunroots and cherry jus. Not to be missed are the seasonal local spot prawns or tender lamb. Desserts include browned butter almond cake with pear soup and ice cream or warm rice pudding with blueberry compote and a rice cracker. Maître d’ Abel Jacinto oversees an eclectic list of fine wines, which includes a notable selection of half bottles.
