Park Blue is one of
New York's most unique experiences. Fonda
Tsironis has created a sexy, sophisticated
lounge devoted to half bottles of wine,
small plates and full service in this
warm and cozy midtown gem. Eric Simeon's
menu, featuring lobster eggs Benedict,
grilled octopus and the best mini-cheeseburgers
in New York, is sure to please all palates.
With over 120 choices, the wine list,
comprised entirely of half bottles, is
unparalleled. Behind a stunning white
onyx bar comes inventive specialty cocktails
and impeccable classics. For private
events, Park Blue's party room is perfect
for intimate gatherings up to 75 people.
Park Blue is perfect for pre-theatre
or post-theatre drinks or dining. Close
to Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, City
Center and Broadway. After work drinks,
casual dining or late night reveling,
there is no better place in midtown than
Park Blue.
The
Scene
Dark wood and midnight blue color the
interior of this long and lean wine bar.
The tall tables and low banquets, the elegant
softly glowing sconces, and the well-stocked,
back-lit bar are all sleek and chic while
the staff is warm and inviting. The seasoned
maitre'd, who also happens to be the owner,
greets every guest.
The Draw
Sophisticated bar food, a skilled mixologist,
and a killer wine list entice a classy crowd
after work and after hours. When the five
o'clock whistle blows, Midtown professionals
stop by for crispy crab fritters, classic
cocktails and specialty drinks--try the pleasantly
pulpy strawberry and lychee rum punch or
champagne with blueberry puree. After the
midnight hour, local restaurant staffers,
including chefs and sommeliers from the nearby
Time Warner Center, stop by post-shift to
ponder the wide selection of half-size wine
bottles and savor late-night breakfasts of
lobster eggs benedict.
