Ten Hope Opened in Williamsburg with Harold Dieterle as its Consulting Chef
Last week Top Chef winner and consulting chef Harold Dieterle opened up Ten Hope, a new Mediterranean-inspired restaurant located at 10 Hope Street in Williamsburg. The cuisine takes from Greek, Italian, Spanish and Moroccan flavors are featured in the signature dishes, complemented by expertly-crafted cocktails, house-made spiked sodas, wine, and beer.
A vine-laced, dimly-lit 2,500 square-foot patio provides ample seating in a green environment outdoors, and serves as a gorgeous entryway to the restaurant’s mod-interior, which features a full bar and space for up to a hundred guests. Whether it’s a late night drink date or dinner with friends and family, Ten Hope is the perfect spot to bring people together: a living room, dining room, and patio for locals to call home.
Ten Hope’s owner, restaurateur and music event producer Bill Zafiros is marrying his two passions by bringing a weekly Tuesday series of live music, dubbed Studio Sessions, for guests to discover some of NYC’s newest talents and stars on the rise.
Ten Hope’s menu features shareable plates like Smashed Avocado with Green Zhug, feta cheese and pita chips for $15; Seared Halloumi Cheese Salad with crispy kale sprouts, kiwi berries and toasted pumpkin seed vinaigrette for $18; and Spice Roasted Local Carrots with Squid ink ricotta, Mike’s Hot Honey and crispy quinoa for $13. Main dishes include Crispy Octopus with Chorizo, wax beans, pickled eggplant and nigella aioli for $19; Crispy Lamb Ribs with Cumin for $17; Seared Diver Sea Scallops with golden beets, roasted fennel and romesco sauce for $28; Chicken Cooked Under a Brick with pluots, charred cabbage, hazelnuts and spicy green garlic sauce for $24; a Ten Hope Kofta Burger with Kasseri cheese, crispy potatoes and tzatziki for $22; and a Grilled Creekstone Prime Hanger Steak with Salsa Verde and charred broccolini for $36.
