In a recent article published by Eater, it was revealed that Oxalis, a beloved Prospect Heights establishment with a Michelin Star, closed its doors in 2023 after a successful five-year run. However, fans of the restaurant need not despair, as the team behind Oxalis, Redwood Hospitality Group, is actively searching for a larger space to relaunch their original concept.
Redwood is also opening two new businesses, one of which, Laurel Bakery, is set to open in late March at 115 Columbia Street. The location is in the heart of the Columbia Street Waterfront District.
While the menu hasn’t been finalized, a representative confirmed there will be excellent viennoiserie, as well as a variety of quality breads. They also added that Laurel Bakery Chef Nico Russell is a fougasse enthusiast, partly from his time spent in the South of France—so that is sure to be a menu highlight.
With this and another development in the pipeline — an all-day café set to open at the original Oxalis location — it’s evident that Redwood, also the team behind Clinton Hill’s Place des Fêtes, remains dedicated to providing exceptional culinary experiences to the Brooklyn community.
