Cosme

Cosme, contemporary Mexican cuisine in the Flatiron District

Cosme is the restaurant chef Enrique Olvera runs in New York's Flatiron District. Its approach is contemporary cuisine rooted in Mexican flavors and traditions, with a focus on local and seasonal ingredients. The beverage program follows the same line: artisanal spirits, high-quality ingredients, and inspiration drawn from Mexican culture.
