The Pines. Tonight. 6pm. Be There.

The highly anticipated new project from the fellows behind Littleneck is opening tonight at 6pm.  The Pines is located at 284 3rd Ave, just two storefronts down from Littleneck, Aaron Lefkove and Andy Curtain's New England-style seafood shack at 288 3rd Ave.  If Littleneck is "of the sea," Lefkove has said, The Pines will be "of the land."  Chef Angelo Romano, formerly of Roberta's, Lupa, and the shortlived Williamsburg hit Maston Lake, has created a concise menu of dishes like squash with house made tofu, smoked tomato, and bottarga, and cavatelli with trotter ragu.  Here's a few pictures of the backyard and bar, chairs were up when we were there but Eater got some great shots of the place all setup and ready for service.
