Nordic Tasting Menu in Midtown With a 5-Course Lunch
Settle into a two-Michelin-star Nordic tasting menu in Midtown, from a 5-course lunch to the famous Bird's Nest dessert.
🐟 Nordic Plates, Modern Technique
Aquavit serves a Nordic tasting menu in Midtown from inside the Park Avenue Tower, and its two Michelin stars come with a relaxed, welcoming pace. The kitchen uses modern techniques to reframe traditional Nordic ingredients, with plates that run from crudo with cucumber sorbet to richer bites of Swedish caviar, elk and wagyu.
Two formats shape the meal. The 5 course lunch tasting suits a weekday table, and the 7 course chef's tasting gives the kitchen more room to stretch. Save space for the famous Bird's Nest dessert. Presentation is precise, but the staff keep the elegant Scandinavian dining room comfortable and unpretentious, ideal for a special occasion.
Lunch runs Monday through Friday from noon to half past one PM. Dinner starts at 5 PM Monday through Saturday, ending at 9 PM early in the week and half past nine PM on Friday and Saturday. Sunday is closed. The entrance sits on East 55th Street between Park and Madison.
