New York City is an epicenter for foodies, and many of our favorite restaurants can create an experience worthy of celebrating a birthday here. Whether it's a themed dinner for the honoree, or a VIP experience that makes them feel special on this special occasion - NYC offers plenty of delicious dining experiences to fit the bill!

There are plenty of great places to celebrate a birthday party on any budget. Restaurants often provide private dining rooms or cocktail lounges which are equipped to handle your party without you needing to manage details for yourself; or alternatively you could hire a private chef for the day so they can prepare a unique menu at home for you.

Ellen's Stardust Diner in Times Square offers a classic 1950s diner experience; for an upscale Indian meal in Flatiron District try Junoon; Beetle House is an East Village Tim Burton restaurant featuring menu items inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride films as a unique year-round birthday dining option.

Organize an unforgettable foodie celebration by booking one of our recommended fine dining restaurants. Citrico Cafe in SoHo provides a sophisticated ambiance and delectable Italian cuisine, while Barbuto in Lower East Side can host groups who want a night of wine, whiskey and good conversation.

Jack's Wife Freda in SoHo or West Village provides Mediterranean-influenced dishes in an inviting atmosphere, making the ideal location for birthday brunch celebrations. For dessert, visit Milk Bar to add a sweet touch or order one of their specially made cakes from one of their many locations throughout NYC.
