Amidst the skyscrapers of midtown Manhattan, in the heart of Rockefeller Center, is a turn-of-the-century townhouse where everyone from New Yorkers to visitors from around the world feast on the finest flavors of the marketplace prepared by acclaimed chef Bill Yosses. Named for owner Joe Gurrera, Josephs is a casually elegant restaurant where, against a sparkling city backdrop, diners can relax and enjoy a sumptuous Mediterranean American meal fresh from the market to their table.
The menu features mouthwatering selections like Venison Tenderloin; Ricotta Gnocchi with Sweet Fennel Sausage; Loup de Mer; Bouillabaisse; side dishes inspired by the farmer’s market; and Yosses’ award-winning desserts like Classic Vanilla, Chocolate or Raspberry Soufflé and Almond Praline-Peanut Tart. Clean and robust flavors emerge from Yosses’ careful handling of the highest quality ingredients and inspired culinary creations.
The extensive wine list offers over 200 bottles and an eclectic collection of wines-by-the-glass from the New and Old World, as well as a varied selection of beer and sake. After-dinner drinks include classic and contemporary sweet wines, port, cognac, Madeira, grappa and calvados.
Inside this townhouse gem, every aesthetic detail is designed to evoke warmth and welcome. On the chic first floor lounge, guests can nibble on irresistible appetizers and sip signature cocktails and fine wines, surrounded by warm African Wenge wood and deep blue mohair fabrics. The second and third floor dining rooms feature opalescent walls of glass beads, aquatic portholes showcasing seashells of every color, shape and size and coral-inspired fabrics. On the fourth floor, private party guests are greeted by inviting, richly colored rust and gold hand-woven padded silk “scales” that line the walls with a balcony for pre-dinner cocktails.
Located just a short stroll from Central Park, around the corner from Radio City Music Hall, near the Theater District and in close proximity to glamorous boutiques, Josephs is a favored destination for lunch, dinner and cocktails.
