My new go-to Seafood Eatery is nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in SoHo, The Otter is the latest buzzworthy addition to New York’s seafood scene. Helmed by Alex Stupak, the celebrated chef behind Empellón, this cozy-yet-luxurious restaurant brings simply prepared, high-quality seafood to a charming neighborhood setting inside The Manner Hotel.

- Oysters on the half shell and razor clams
- Salt-roasted head-on prawns with black pepper dipping sauce
- Lobster rolls done just right
- Seafood platters featuring tuna, trout roe, smoked salmon, sea urchin, and octopus
