Gem Relocates Their Businesses, With Popular Wine Bar Moving a Block North to Forsyth St.
Gem's space will be taken over by trendy and always busy Gem Wine, which will re-open today September 20th. New events space Gem House will open at Gem Wine's old spot.
The business names can be easily mixed up, so to make it crystal clear, Gem is the name of the company in charge of Gem the restaurant, Gem House and Gem Wine. For the purpose of this post, Gem the restaurant will be referred to as Gem NYC.
Gem NYC was a high-end restaurant serving inventive American fare on a tasting menu that closed its 116 Forsyth location on August 26th after more than 5 years in business. There's been no word on a new Gem NYC location, but the operators mentioned they "are in the process of relocating" on social media.
Gem's space will be taken over by trendy and always busy Gem Wine, which will re-open today September 20th after a four day long move from their 297 Broome location. Gem Wine opened back in February 2022.
That Broome storefront will be then occupied by brand new Gem House, an event hosting space meant for "wine dinners…, pasta nights, and pop ups with friends" among other events according to Gem's website. That is opening today too.
