One If By Land, Two If By Sea Restaurant
One If By Land, Two If By Sea is a fine dining restaurant located at 17 Barrow Street (between Seventh Avenue South and West 4th Street) in the West Village of the New York City Manhattan borough.[1] It has been recognized for its classic menu, long history, and beautiful decor. [2] The restaurant operates inside a historic carriage house built in 1767.[1] It was subsequently purchased by Aaron Burr[1] in 1794 and rumored to be haunted by his ghost. In the 1830s, the former residence was converted into a pub and brothel. In 1910, the building first became a restaurant. The decor features candlelit tables, two fireplaces, and a baby grand piano. The classic menu has been noted for its signature dish, Beef Wellington. It is often cited as the most romantic restaurant in New York City.
