Steakhouse
Little Italy
The American steakhouse is an iconic restaurant institution. We’d wanted to tell that story for years, but waited until we had the skill, talent and ability to execute it properly, and the right space to be our canvas, an important corner in Little Italy, a neighborhood where we have deep roots. We brought an almost academic appreciation for steakhouse history and tradition to Born & Raised, while trying to stay relevant and authentic to ourselves and our city. Our dry-aged beef pays tribute to earlier, earthier, pre-government grading practices and is the centerpiece of a meal best savored at a slow pace. A timeless celebration of everything that makes restaurants so special. - Consortium Holdings. A 4% surcharge is added to all guest checks.

Sushi
Little Italy
WELCOME TO CLOAK & PETAL!
Where we invite you to journey into a place of both intimacy and companionship
Our concept is drawn from our name. The word “cloak” implies secrecy, inspiring our concept of a social sphere humming beneath the levels of ordinary life. “Petal” alludes to the Japanese tradition of “hanami,” when family and friends gather under blooming cherry blossoms to savor food, drinks and fellowship.
Enter our space and travel underground to décor reminiscent of an abandoned Tokyo subway, a stratum of society all its own, an artist’s dream. Cross the threshold into a mystically transformed Japanese social dining lounge which appears to be an outdoor seating area, similar to a waiting platform. Sit beneath a trellis of draping vines and teardrop lights in the intimate space we’ve thoughtfully created, and feast on authentic Japanese sushi, appetizers, small plates and drinks with family and friends.

Journey down to Cloak + Petal… and come unwind your soul.

We absolutely love coming to Siamo Napoli, the food and service are always spot on. We just returned from two weeks Italy, and our visit immediately took us right back. The food is authentic and reasonably priced. Our server was friendly, gave great recommendations and made us feel welcome. I loved seeing the mix of patrons…there were families, couples, and everything in between. We sat for two hours and the place was packed the entire time. Noise level is very high, but compliments the atmosphere. Love this place!

We absolutely love coming to Siamo Napoli, the food and service are always spot on. We just returned from two weeks Italy, and our visit immediately took us right back. The food is authentic and reasonably priced. Our server was friendly, gave great recommendations and made us feel welcome. I loved seeing the mix of patrons…there were families, couples, and everything in between. We sat for two hours and the place was packed the entire time. Noise level is very high, but compliments the atmosphere. Love this place!
