About Crown Shy
Crown Shy is the first solo project of Chef James Kent. Inspired by James’s upbringing in downtown New York and his experience leading the city’s most celebrated kitchens, Crown Shy is a neighborhood seasonal restaurant elevated by fine dining training and technique.

Located on the ground floor of Art Deco masterpiece 70 Pine Street, the dining room and bar occupy a series of rooms with floor to 16-foot-ceiling windows leading to an open kitchen.

Crown Shy has been awarded 1 Michelin star & 2 stars by the NYT and has been acknowledged as one of the most popular new restaurants in the city by multiple publications.

Crown Shy's service model is unique: Servers, alongside the Sommelier and Bartender, are the primary service positions on the floor. Servers operate as a unified team, collectively handling all food running and table maintenance. This model requires a natural drive for excellence and a strong commitment to teamwork.
