Introduction
Restaurant Aquavit opened in 1987 and has been the premier Scandinavian dining destination in Midtown Manhattan ever since. Originally located on 54th street, Aquavit's home is 55th street between Park and Madison Avenues, with a new modern look and feel.
Scandinavian cuisine has, over centuries, absorbed influences from cultures close by. Mostly Germanic and Eastern European flavors gave way to French influences and techniques from 1950's and on. Still we mostly regard Scandinavian home cooking as Germanic and Scandinavian fine dining as French.
You'll notice these subtle differences at Restaurant Aquavit when visiting our Bistro which has many rustic, Scandinavian home cooking interpretations on the menu and our dining room, where the tone is mostly French with a Scandinavian profile.
Aquavit's design, however, is distinctly Scandinavian. Our design is open and airy saluting famous designers such as Arne Jacobsen, Paul Kjaerholm and Verner Panton. The classically modern setting compliments the cooking style of Executive Chef Marcus Jernmark. A meal at Restaurant Aquavit is a journey to Scandinavia that can be either traditional or modern, depending on your mood.
A visit to Aquavit would not be complete without trying its namesake beverage. We feature, not only various bottled aquavits, but also a wide variety flavored in-house.
For private dining, gatherings, corporate and socials events, Restaurant Aquavit can accommodate 12-200 guests in various settings of the restaurant and will create a menu that fits your particular occasion and needs.
