Benoit New York

CONTEMPORARY FRENCH BISTRO BY ALAIN DUCASSE

Alain Ducasse’s bistro evokes the charm and pleasure of the original Benoit in Paris, which opened its doors in 1912.

At Benoit New York, a few steps away from the boutiques of 5th avenue and Central Park, guests enjoy a warm and authentic experience. Open since 2008, the restaurant underwent a renovation in August 2016, bringing a contemporary touch to the classic space. The refreshed design still retains traditional French bistro elements, mixed with a warmer, yet lighter and airier décor and atmosphere.

Born in the northern Italian region of Verona, our Executive Chef Alberto Marcolongo fell in love with hospitality and cooking at an early age, inspired by times spent in the kitchen with his mother and grandmother.

Alberto continued to hone his craft across London, Singapore, and Italy before beginning his Benoit New York journey as Executive Sous Chef in 2019. When personal matters brought Alberto back to Europe, he stayed in the Ducasse Paris group with stints at Ducasse sur Seine and Cucina Mutualité; and back to New York since 2022.

The Wine Bar is a vibrant space for guests to learn, indulge and interact, driving the dynamic nature of the beverage program, including a wine list of over 550 references, from iconic French producers to domestic discoveries.
