Located directly next to the historic Jimmy's Doggie Stand at the foot of the Northampton Street Bridge—affectionately known by locals as the Easton-Phillipsburg "free bridge"—the new eatery takes advantage of its prime location to offer diners picturesque views of the Delaware River and the neighboring downtown Easton, Pennsylvania skyline.
Co-owners Kristina Haas and Rojelio Romero chose the restaurant's name specifically to highlight the broad, panoramic sights surrounding the property. Moving forward, the partners plan to maximize this prime real estate by unveiling a seasonal rooftop deck, creating an elevated outdoor space for guests to relax, eat, and take in the stunning waterfront views.
Rojelio Romero is already a familiar and highly respected name in the regional dining community. He brings serious culinary credentials to the new kitchen, having successfully opened La Maya Mexican restaurant in Hellertown, Pennsylvania, and El Charro del Rio in Milford, New Jersey. To bring this new riverfront concept to life, he partnered with Kristina Haas, a hospitality veteran with an extensive professional background in hotel sales and operations.
With the soft launch successfully underway, the ownership team is currently gearing up to host a formal grand opening event in Phillipsburg sometime next week.
