What's that new place in Union Square

The one on 17th that looks like it used to be a private home?
Anyone checked it out yet?

    Frank Bruni reviewed it today on his NY Times podcast. You can download it for free through iTunes. I haven't listened to it yet, but he has a tendency to dislike everything.

              I find that adding "restaurant nyc" to my Google query usually helps alot. It is funny because there was recently a post on Eater I think about how unsearchable that restaurant is.

                Yeah, finding Home can be hard, too.

                And there was that Columbus Avenue restaurant called Avenue. IMPOSSIBLE to find on Google.

                I wonder how much thought restaurateurs give to Google when naming their restaurants.

          It's called the House. Scroll down and you'll find some talk about it.
