Residents' common dining room at Tribeca Green (Corcoran Sunshine / Related Companies)
Between Easter (which fell on March 31 this year), Eid al-Fitr (which fell on April 10), and Passover (which starts at sundown on April 22), spring is a busy time for entertaining that shows no sign of slowing down with the forthcoming Mother’s Day and Memorial Day holidays on May 12 and May 27, respectively. Add in longer days and warmer weather conditions that make interborough and cross-country travel alike more appealing, and it’s little wonder that it’s 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.
