el Nico is the restaurant and cocktail bar at Penny Williamsburg. Its name is derived from ancient Greek and Italian roots meaning “victory for the people". Its spirit pays homage to the rich history of Latin migration that is a bedrock of Brooklyn’s history and elNico is the new rooftop bar and restaurant at Penny Williamsburg, serving imaginative Mexican food and drinks with majestic views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan skylines. The menu is a reflection of Chef Fer Serrano’s Mexican roots and her family’s favorite recipes, with influences drawn from her experience working alongside some of the greatest chefs in the world. With an emphasis on agave-based spirits, the cocktail program under the direction of Leo Robitschek complements the food with fresh, seasonal flavors and locally sourced ingredients. elNico’s dining room and terrace are open for dinner and drinks every day and brunch on weekends.
