Thyme & Tonic to Close November 5th, New Mexican Jewish Fusion Restaurant to Replace It

After nearly six years of serving the Upper West Side, Thyme & Tonic, also known as PrimeThyme, has announced it will close on November 5th, 2025.
The popular Manhattan restaurant shared the news on social media, confirming that this marks the end of one chapter and also the beginning of another for the team behind the well-known Modern Bread & Bagel brand.

A Beloved Kosher Spot Nearing Its Final Service

Since opening, originally as a kosher vegan spot, Thyme & Tonic has been a fixture in the neighborhood, recognized for its lively energy, fresh seasonal menus, and creative pop-up concepts. The restaurant built a loyal following among locals and visitors alike, offering a modern, plant-forward approach to kosher dining in an inviting atmosphere. With dishes that evolved each season and a team dedicated to keeping things innovative, the space became a reliable spot for weekday dinners, special occasions, and Shabbat takeout alike.

The owners expressed gratitude to their patrons, noting how much they have appreciated the community’s support over the years. Guests are encouraged to visit one more time before the final day of service to enjoy their favorite dishes.

The Same Team, a New Direction: South of the Border

The closure of Thyme & Tonic will not be the end for this team, it is a transformation. The restaurant’s owners, who also run the acclaimed Modern Bread & Bagel chain of gluten-free kosher cafés, are already at work on their next concept.

Replacing Thyme & Tonic will be a Mexican fusion restaurant, offering full sit-down dining with waiter service. More information about the new venture will be released next week. The team plans for the new restaurant to open soon after Thyme & Tonic’s closure, maintaining the same commitment to quality, freshness, and gluten-free dining that has defined their other ventures.

Location and Certification

Thyme & Tonic is located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and is kosher certified by NKS. Its final day of service will be Wednesday, November 5th, 2025. The restaurant’s upcoming replacement, a Mexican Jewish fusion concept by the same owners, will open in the same location shortly thereafter, continuing the legacy of innovation and excellence that Thyme & Tonic brought to the neighborhood.
