Candle 79 is leading the pack in introducing New Yorkers to the exciting world of Vegan Cuisine. The restaurant is upscale and elegant, and presents patrons with a warm, serene atmosphere as they dine overlooking tree-lined east 79th street.
Voted Top Vegetarian by New York Magazine, and a member of Time Out New York’s TONY 100, Candle 79 takes Vegan dining to a new level. Emphasis is placed on presentation, as the food that arrives at the table is quite artistic and beautiful. Of course, there is no use of any animal products what-so-ever, and owners Joy Pierson and Bart Potenza succeed in maintaining the texture and taste that would satisfy any diner - a true destination restaurant for Vegans and non-Vegans alike.
A dazzling array of daily specials show newcomers how exciting Vegan cuisine can be. All produce is organic, and the local agricultural industry is supported as all ingredients are purchased seasonally from area farms and markets.
Candle 79 has a world-class wine list made up strictly of the best organic wines. All selections are bio-dynamic, which means they are produced in a self-contained winery where vintners work within the structure of the land to preserve the natural environment.
Candle 79 is proud to offer its widely diverse catering menu for private parties, family functions and corporate events - both on and off the premises. For a more casual setting, guests can try the always popular Candle Café just around the corner. For die-hard fans, the Candle Café cookbook is readily available at all major bookstores, as well as at the front of the restaurant.
A true experience for the health conscious, Candle 79 is able to present to New Yorkers a new and exciting way to enjoy one of the best alternatives in town.
