Help an LA Foodie. What is considered the most renown power-lunch spot in NYC? Not dinner just lunch. Thanks.

Much appreciated any replys.

Four Seasons Grill Room. For power lunch, it's the grill room, not the pool room. Storied history as a power lunch spot.

For a while, Lever House was a big power lunch spot too I think. No idea if that's still the case after it changed to Casa Lever.

There's always Cipriani's.

Never heard of Michael's, but I trust the posts above.

Michael's is the go to place for the publishing/media moguls.

another vote for the four seasons restaurant. i have been there a few times during lunch and saw a lot of well dressed business people sitting next to the pool.

I should have added that New York is much more of a power breakfast than power lunch spot.For many years the number one power breakfast spot was the Lowe's Regency Hotel. It closed for renovations at the beginning of the month and the owners have moved a lot of the staff to their restaurant Park Avenue Autumn - now called Park Avenue Winter. - and most, of their high -profile customers have followed.

Depends on which industry- but if you're talking about media people, it's definitely Michael's.

Four seasons in midtown.

Michael's

(I don't think much business is done at Le B or Per Se.)

+1 for Michael's at lunch.

What about The Four Seasons. I'm told it's quite the spot for the rich and famous.
