Marcel

Lenox Hill·5.0 (6)

Photography by Rich Stapleton / Sotheby's, Nico Schinco / Sotheby's

Marcel just opened inside Sotheby's new global headquarters at the landmarked Breuer Building on Madison Avenue, pairing the design team behind SoHo's beloved La Mercerie with chef-partner Marie-Aude Rose for a French-leaning continental restaurant that is already one of the most talked-about openings of the year. Named for Marcel Breuer, the architect of the building, the restaurant is a warm, walnut-paneled contrast to the Brutalist exterior above, with mohair banquettes, candlelight, custom bronze lighting, and an open kitchen producing elevated takes on classics. Paintings, sculptures, and rare jewelry from Sotheby's collection line the space, making every dinner feel less like a meal and more like an evening inside one of the world's great private art collections.
