It is with joy that we welcome you to The Rockefeller Townhouses, our home at 13-15 West 54th Street. Built in 1897 by architect Henry Hardenbergh (Dakota Building and Plaza Hotel), on the so-called “Millionaire’s Row” in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, the buildings were designed in the Beaux Arts Renaissance style. The 2012 renovation project was under the guidance of K/R Architects, the same architectural firm that created the original Il Gattopardo back in 2001. In the new house, Il Gattopardo gains an intimate bar and a marvelous private event space with capacity up to 120 seats. The main dining room has been designed to translate our vision of comfort, modernity, but above all, simplicity, and to keep alive Il Gattopardo’s understated elegance.
We welcome you to join us on this journey, as always have the pleasure of your company at Mozzarella & Vino and at The Leopard at des Artistes - located in one of the most iconic spaces in New York City, Hotel des Artistes.
Il Gattopardo serves traditional Southern Italian comfort food that has been adapted for the contemporary palate without compromising the authenticity of the cuisine, which became a must to its loyal upscale New Yorker clientele. We are committed to producing top quality Southern Italian gastronomy, to the use of authentic ingredients, and to keeping the tradition of Italian culture, and hospitality, vibrant and passionate.
