The focus of 1892 East Restaurant and Tavern is community and it is driven by food-farmer-neighborhood relationships. Situated in the historic Five Points neighborhood, one of the city’s oldest, the restaurant combines tradition, hospitality and the freshest, organic ingredients. The deep red walls, rich wood and banquet-style setting invite diners in and there is a long bar at the entrance perfect for socializing. Working closely with local farmers the restaurant has earned a reputation for elevating even the simplest of ingredients to new levels in a wide variety of ‘New American’ dishes such as their signature crispy Gulf shrimp and grits in a smoked tomato sauce. 1982 East also has the most extensive vegetarian menu in Huntsville. Overall 1892 East aims to demonstrate the benefits of sustainable dining and the development of a local food economy dedicated to high quality foods.
