Taking inspiration from the NYC flagship in Manhattan’s highly sought after Meatpacking District, the interior, designed by Creative Clinic, conveys an industrial chic aesthetic withfeatures including concrete, brick and copper walls, large bronze pillars, industrial fans and black and white geometric flooring. Dominated by rich, tufted leather chocolate brown booths, the main dining room is stylistically elevated by pops of orange, yellow and turquoise details strategically woven throughout the space. Other unique elements include a reflective corridor and large faceted mirrors.
