ABOUT US

For more than a century, Gage & Tollner was the cornerstone of the Brooklyn restaurant world. Generations of Brooklynites found comfort and community in Gage & Tollner’s magnificent landmarked dining room; generations from now, we want our children and grandchildren to find comfort here, too. 

With three longtime friends and celebrated local restaurateurs at the helm—partners Sohui Kim (chef, Insa / The Good Fork), Ben Schneider (Insa / The Good Fork), and St. John Frizell (Fort Defiance)—our community-driven team is restoring Gage & Tollner to its former glory and guiding it into the 21st century. We take inspiration for our food and beverage offerings from the Gage & Tollner archives, honoring and elevating beloved longtime classics with meticulously-sourced ingredients and diligent technique.
