celebrating our second century Blue Ribbon Federal Grill is located within AKA Wall Street, at the corner of Maiden Lane and William Street, directly across from the Federal Reserve Building, from which it takes its name. The restaurant's large windows along Maiden Lane look out on the Federal Reserve and the triangular Louise Nevelson Plaza.
Blue Ribbon Federal Grill at AKA Wall Street is part of the Blue Ribbon Restaurants group, which is owned by chefs and brothers Eric and Bruce Bromberg. Eric is photographed here in the kitchen. The Bromberg brothers have brought an eclectic energy to this AKA downtown location with a menu that embodies the abundant 'something for everyone' philosophy that has guided the brothers throughout their careers.
