One of Midtown Manhattan's newest and hottest venues is the recently opened Covet Restaurant and Lounge, courtesy of Eric Milon, the man behind Miami's nightlife resurgence, and entrepreneur Andre Hnatyszak.
Enthralling customers in a restaurant with a romance between European elegance and New York City glamour, Covet's Chef John Keller creates and caters a Mediterranean and Asian-inspired dining experience. Signature dishes include Hamachi Duo, Lobster Brulee, and Wild Boar Tenderloin.
Below the main restaurant floor, the lounge provides an intimate yet hospitable and chic ambiance serving exotic, signature cocktails. Of special mention is famed mixologist Orson Salicetti's $160 cocktail: The Icarus – which includes Louis XIII cognac, which retails for $1,600 a bottle – exclusively at Covet. In addition, the lounge also features music by the popular '90s French-Canadian model discovered by designer Jean-Paul Gaultier, resident DJ Evalicious. Her music style compliments Covet's international influence and ambiance as she spins mixes ranging from electronic pop to indie mashups. Many roped-off enclaves are dotted around the lounge to offer a quiet and secluded space for those who wish to exchange a few words or escape the high-energy crowd.
"Covet exudes St. Tropez and St. Barth's glamour," says Mr. Hnatyszak. "The mix in ambiance is designed for a well-heeled crowd attracting celebrities, models, politicians, foodies, the financial set and fashionistas. It's where Gordon Gekko meets Devil Wears Prada." With the main dining room featuring Zeppelin chandeliers and walls adorned with oil paintings by renowned artist Robert Lambert it is no surprise that Covet attracts such an upscale clientele.
Mr. Milon's previous venues include South Beach's The Strand, Prive, The Living Room, Set, all of which have been favorites of Hollywood's A-list stars including Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears. Chef John Keller has worked at critically acclaimed restaurants, including Bruno Jamais, Nobu and Le Bernadin.
Covet is located at 137 E. 55th Street in New York City. The restaurant seats 66 guests and serves dinner Monday through Saturday beginning at 5:30PM. Prices range from $11 – $35 per dish. The full service bar and lounge holds nearly 300 guests and is open until 4AM. Covet is also the ideal space for private events or parties of any size.
