Coast and Valley brought a slice of California cool to Brooklyn, with a sunlit, minimalist interior that echoed West Coast serenity. The space featured clean lines, natural wood accents, and a relaxed ambiance that invited guests to unwind. Its menu showcased inventive, plant-forward dishes like ginger basil tofu and charred watermelon “tuna,” complemented by a curated selection of wines from women, POC, and LGBTQIA+ winemakers. Though it closed in 2023, Coast and Valley remains a cherished memory of laid-back elegance and culinary innovation
