2025 IACP AWARD WINNER, CHEFS & RESTAURANTS The highly anticipated cookbook from the Michelin-starred restaurant, written by acclaimed chef Nick Curtola, James Murphy, James Beard Award–winning wine director Justin Chearno, and co-author Gabe Ulla. Much like the irresistibly warm restaurant that inspires it, The Four Horsemen: Food and Wine for Good Times is about more than just amazing food. The story begins in 2014, when four friends with practically zero restaurant experience between them naively decided to open a restaurant in New York City. They called the place The Four Horsemen, and they hired a largely unknown chef, Nick Curtola, to lead its tiny kitchen. Even though they did almost everything wrong at the start, The Four Horsemen now has a Michelin star, a waiting list for tables seven nights a week, and a James Beard Award for the best wine program in the United States―not to mention a global reputation as a must-visit destination in New York City. Of Curtola’s food, New York Times restaurant critic Pete Wells wrote, in a glowing review, “The effortlessly casual plates are not, in fact, effortless or casual, a realization that only dawns on you as you’re wondering why this sausage or that pickle is the best thing you’ve tasted in ages.” In the acclaimed restaurant’s debut cookbook, Curtola explains his approach to simplicity with warmth, clarity, and more than 100 recipes. The book begins with a humorous and moving introduction by co-founder James Murphy, which sets the stage for Curtola’s writing and recipes, casual and informative essays by natural wine pioneer Justin Chearno, and appearances by Murphy and Chearno’s fellow horsemen Christina Topsøe and Randy Moon. Throughout, readers will also find suggestions related to a subject on which the four unwitting friends were experts long before they built the restaurant: how to have fun. Filled with charming and mouthwatering photos and illustrations Review: Love this book - This book was both a good read (sneakily motivational) and had solid recipes I've had fun cooking through at home Review: Must have <3 - A wonderful cookbook and tribute to one of my favorite restaurants in the world. Love the wonderful writings about wine and gorgeous recipes and tidbits about service too. Four Horsemen forever!

Finally a Restaurant Cookbook that you can actually cook from!
I never review...but I couldn't let this one go without notice. We had a meal here last month and it was probably one of the top 5 meals ever. So I came home a purchased this cookbook as a nice memory. Too often these restaurant cookbooks are way beyond mere mortals, but this book is incredible. Each recipe I have tried has been delicious and everyone I have served has asked for the recipes (Sweet Corn Salad was beyond amazing). Don't pass it up!

Great recipes and story
A nice addition to our cookbook kitchen shelf. It looks nice and was fun to read with different perspectives from chefs and folks starting up in the restaurant industry. The recipes make great dishes. This is not blue zone eating! But dishes you’d like to eat at a restaurant but that you can still make at home.

Get this cookbook
I have only had a chance to make one recipe, the celery, walnut, date salad. Served it for Christmas party and every single person asked for the recipe. Can’t wait to make everything else. If you have eaten at the Four Horsemen, you know that every single dish is delicious. So great to know I have such amazing recipes! So many restaurant cookbooks are way too complicated for a home cook, but these recipes are Very do able. FYI, fennel pollen is available from Amazon…

It's fine.
It's fine. It's aesthetic. Don't read the forward. As a chef, it may upset you.

Subpar quality
Just received the book today. Did not read the book so cannot comment on the content. But the first page of the book was torn and the last page was not stuck properly. Very disappointing as I had bought this as a present for a friend.
