Forgive our skepticism over Casa Cruz’s declare to being something apart from a strictly non-public membership.
Regardless of its insistence that its East 61st Road eating room is open to the general public, it has ignored our e-mail requests for reservations since Oct 14. It first stated three nights we requested for have been “absolutely dedicated.”
It didn’t reply to 2 follow-up requests for a desk every time one turned obtainable.
Vogue proclaimed Casa Cruz’s eating room “New York’s most glamorous new restaurant.” However they solely appear to take “traders” who pay $250,000-and-up to affix.
They’re free to run the place as they select, in fact. However after we wrote final month that it was strictly private, their flack scolded us
“It’s NOT a personal membership. We shall be open to the general public for breakfast, lunch and dinner as of the twelfth of September,” the rep vowed.
We modified the story to mirror that. It is perhaps time to alter it once more.
