A Setting To Remember
Private dining at The National is an unforgettable experience. A stunning, oiled bronze spiral staircase leads guests from the main restaurant to the second floor, where five dining rooms provide elegant seated dining for up to 80, and cocktail receptions for up to 200. All menus are personally crafted for each party by Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian. Vintage bar carts with a dedicated bartender are available upon request.
The Corner dining room features a vintage hutch that opens for bar service, as well as grand views overlooking bustling Lexington Avenue.
From intimate dinner gatherings to cocktail receptions to full banquets, The National is the perfect setting for any occasion.
