Our Story

The cuisine at l’abeille à côté is a playful interpretation of the elegant, Michelin-starred French-Japanese fare by chef Mitsunobu Nagae at l’abeille. The new prix fixe is a chef-driven journey highlighting a selection of techniques and flavors on display at l’abeille in an abbreviated experience. 

The three-course menu offers a choice of appetizers such as Crab Croquette with kimchi sauce vierge and herb salad, and Kabocha Squash with mimolette and black truffle. Mains include Black Cod with saikyo-miso and daikon radish, Scallop “Vol-Au-Vent” with mushrooms, along with à côté’s beloved American Wagyu Teriyaki Burger. Guests can enjoy a sweet finish of Fondant Chocolat with black pepper ice cream, and Nougat Glacé with acacia honey. A number of menu highlights - both old and new - remain available à la carte.

In addition to the extensive award-winning wine-list from l’abeille, l’abeille à côté offers a curated list of 10 sparkling, 10 white, and 10 red wines, bringing together a worldwide selection of adventurous and classic wines. The list showcases indigenous varieties such as Debina from Greece and Zweigelt from Austria as well as classic varieties such as Albariño from Spain and Syrah from South Africa.

Guests are welcome to bring bottles not currently offered on our wine list (both l’abeille and l’abeille à côté) to enjoy with our menu for a corkage fee of $100 per 750ml bottle. We respectfully ask that each party bring no more than one bottle of their own selection at a time.
