Heirloom New Haven

Heirloom utilizes the heritage growers and neighboring artisan suppliers of Connecticut and New England for Chef Carey Savona’s Farm + Coastal cooking. Our kitchen showcases an ingredient-driven cuisine featuring heirloom products that is redefining what it means to cook and eat in New Haven. A native of Connecticut, Savona is passionate about seasonality, independently creative, and dedicated to

farm + coastal cooking. My dad was a great cook from a family of Italian fisherman and fishmongers, he owned a bar and tavern in Connecticut. We shucked oysters together, cooked side-by-side and ate honest, heartfelt food.”
