Private dining room at One Wall Street (Colin Miller)
With Thanksgiving falling on the latest possible day in 2024 (November 28), there barely seems time to take a breath before the winter holidays begin: In a happy coincidence, the first night of Hanukkah falls on Christmas Day (December 25). The Hanukkah celebrations last until January 2 with the Kwanzaa (December 26) and New Year's holidays falling in between. Suffice it to say, the last weeks of the year are a popular time to get together with friends and family.
However, between limited square footage and open floor plans that put dirty dishes on display, the modern New York City apartment is not always conducive to hosting a holiday meal. Developers have come to recognize this and, in response, incorporated private dining rooms into their amenity packages. Some diners opt to literally leave the mess behind and bring their homemade food to the dining room, while others make the most of the catering kitchen that often accompanies this space.
In this article:
Below, we look at a selection of new development condos that include private dining rooms among their amenities. It should be noted that reservations are required to keep the party private and may be even harder to get than at some of the city’s most popular restaurants, thanks to these dining rooms’ high-end finishes, intimate atmosphere, and sheer convenience. As such, we also present a selection of availabilities in the buildings with layouts well suited for hosting dinner parties.
