La Tête d’Or

New York, NY

'La Tête d’Or' main dining.

Restaurant

Occupying an elegant corner of Madison Avenue and 23rd Street in Manhattan, La Tête d’Or honors chef Daniel Boulud’s Lyonnaise roots.

Named after one of France’s largest urban parks located in Lyon, La Tête d’Or evokes a similar sense of drama with an interior spread over five vibrant dining rooms. Realized in a rich palette of blues, mirrors, dark marble, wood and leather paneling, the space pays homage to the historic mid-century limestone building that it’s located in, while serving as Boulud’s first steakhouse. Situated between energetic Park Avenue and the lush oasis of Madison Square Park, La Tête d’Or draws inspiration from classic steakhouses and the delicate art of exceptional French service.
