Private Dining for 10 on the UES

[hannahcampbell]

I'm planning a dinner for 10-12 guests for a Thursday evening in October. I am looking for a private dining room on the UES that would accommodate 10-12 people for a reception and dinner. Any suggestions? We did something similar at Felidia last year. We had a good experience there, but would like to try something new this time. Budget is not really an issue.

Thanks in advance for your ideas!

Thanks, everyone! Great suggestions--appreciate it. This time around we decided to go with Amali, a new Mediterranean restaurant on East 60th. It was a toss-up between that and Cafe Boulud, but we're going to go out on a limb and try a new spot.

Is Aquavit too midtown east for you? Their private spaces are quite spacious and the service wonderful. Private dining manager is lovely to work with; he was formerly at The Modern. Hey - how about the Modern, now that I mention it? (again not UES)

King's Carriage House has private spaces. Haven't been in years so can't attest to the food, but they did a really nice job for my mother's 50th several years ago.
