Located in the center of Tribeca, just few blocks away from the City Government, Courts and Wall Street, the City Hall Restaurant is an 1863 landmark, surrounded by century-old warehouses. This cast iron building was once home to the Lester Pinkus Shoe Corporation; today, the fully-restored and elegant restaurant is known for its fine cuisine, excellent service and beautiful architecture, which has been featured in numerous magazines. Its design is the result of combining tradition with the luxuries and amenities of the 21st century, achieving a truly unique atmosphere. Whether you're planning a wedding, anniversary, corporate event or any other special occasion, the professional staff is dedicated to creating an unforgettable event.

The City Hall Restaurant features soaring 20 foot ceilings, earth-tone fabrics and original cast iron columns, giving it a look of warmth and sophistication. The classic black and white photographs of Manhattan from the early 1900s transport its guests to an era gone-by. The carved from solid Danish pear wood tables are left uncovered to demonstrate the talent of local artisans. Subdued lighting creates an incredibly romantic setting. The chef/owner of the restaurant Henry Meer is committed to providing his clients with the best quality food possible so he works with many local farmers and uses the freshest produce and ingredients available.

Granite ceilings, leather banquettes, a grand piano and cast iron columns create an atmosphere of both grandeur and comfort.
