Peachy Picks The Seahorse Tavern

Brand new to the Upper East Side, The Seahorse Tavern has hit one out of the park with the quality of their seafood and their fabulous location.

They were first featured in Tasty Tidbits:

And we are pleased to say they've solidly graduated to Peachy's Picks.

You know she's a girl that just loves seafood, and she began with the Mussels Meuniere, above.

The New England Classic of Prince Edward Island Mussels are served with white wine and garlic butter; they arrived in perfect fashion and were simply delicious.

Appropriately, the seahorse motif is on the wall...we've always liked seahorses and think this is a great name for a comforting restaurant such as this!

For dinner, Peachy opted for the lemon sole, which we would highly recommend. Moist, succulent and fresh, this sole had soul and was joined by asparagus and brown butter. Perfect for any time of year, this fish was one of the best to order, and so says our friend and fish expert also, whom you will hear from below. Server Emily had a smile on her face all night and owner Karl Feldmann said hello towards the end of our visit. Peachy sipped a Chenin Blanc from South Africa by our friend Xavier Flouret and it was fabulous. Here is Xavier drinking Peachy:

The bread pudding absolutely hit the spot and it punctuated the end to a lovely night of culinary goodness. We also sampled the chocolate mousse which was light and impressive.

Don't just listen to Peachy! Our esteemed panelist, who was handpicked for this review and will be revealed (this has never happened before our panelists are all incognito)-writes:

Introducing Dorian from Dorian's Seafood Market! We don't know anyone who knows more about fish...Dorian says:

The Seahorse Tavern is a highly enjoyable spot. I was quite impressed with the top-quality seafood they served. The Seahorse Tavern is a wonderful addition for seafood afficionados on the upper east side! They offered superb selections that were super fresh and delicious! My Atlantic salmon dish was outstanding. I was very impressed by the local and wild offerings on the menu. It is sure to be a welcome new neighbor in the area and I have already personally started recommending it to people!

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
