We are two New York hospitality industry veterans, and Cecily is our Greenpoint home. Originally conceived during the pandemic as a mission-driven neighborhood restaurant with a deep and thoughtful wine list, where we could provide our employees meaningful profit sharing and ownership, and our guests incredible service. Cecily values a sense of place and neighborhood, delicious sustainable food, and responsible stewardship in our community.

    Cecily is the super elevated entirely casual local restaurant that makes you feel welcome and lucky to live somewhere that appreciates small, intimate, classy spaces with the most friendly staff and an amazing seasonal menu and unique wines. They have a few cult favorite dishes that make you certain you need to come back the next day and a little afraid knowing that the season will change and you'll have to find a new favorite. And then you do and all is well.

    The customer service is outstanding. Everyone is so friendly and happy to give wine and food recommendations. They are also very amenable to dietary restrictions and have made changes for me every time I’ve visited! Great neighborhood gem.
