Popular SFOGLIA RESTAURANT is the “go-to” spot for a quiet 3-course prix fixe $29 lunch on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, wildly popular with the literati, media and theater crowd where they are guaranteed a terrific meal prepared by Chef John Carr, excellent service in the beautifully appointed restaurant which recently won the distinction of “Best Bread in NYC!” Greeted by uber-charming manager Adrien Martin, lunch guests may easily find themselves nestled beside such bold-faced names as: documentarian Ken Burns; actress Phoebe Cates and hubby Kevin Kline, (she decorated the restaurant’s upstairs’ private dining room); beauty Kelly Rutherford; actress Dianne Wiest (one of Woody Allen’s favorites!); food historian, lecturer and author Francine Segan; Fox TV anchors Rosanna Scotto and Greg Kelly (NYC Police Chief’s son); gossip columnist Cindy Adams; fashion designer Regina Kravitz; PR mavens Maury Rogoff and Susan Reilly with their client Olympic swimmer Dara Torres; along with many speakers from across-the-street-neighbor 92nd Street Y including Chief Justice Sandra Day O’Connor.
Located at 1402 Lexington Avenue at 92nd Street, the award-winning restaurant affords diners a chic and inviting dining environment, in an intimate setting. “Museum goers, visitors, shoppers and loads of moms whose children attend one of the seven private schools we are surrounded by, make SFOGLIA an extremely warm and friendly place – especially during the long lunchtime hours,” Martin shares.
A neighborhood favorite, the restaurant books early for Mother’s Day, Graduation and Father’s Day as well as other celebrations. SFOGLIA offers reservations and information by calling (212) 831-1402, or by visiting www.sfogliarestaurant.com.
