Casa Cipriani is a members-only club and hotel opened in 2021 inside the restored Beaux-Arts Battery Maritime Building, where Cipriani’s classic Venetian dishes meet sweeping New York Harbor views. The club’s restaurant extends onto an elevated terrace and private rooftop spaces, turning Bellinis, carpaccio, and baked pastas into a full skyline-facing night out for those willing to pay for the setting.
Must-Try Dishes:
Carpaccio alla Cipriani, Baked Tagliolini with Ham, Vanilla Meringue Cake
What Makes it Special: Private Cipriani club with rooftop terrace dining over New York Harbor.

Antica Ristorante is a longstanding Italian and steakhouse hybrid where Wall Street teams close deals over cacio e pepe, grilled seafood, and prime steaks in a white-tablecloth room just off Stone Street. With 600+ Yelp reviews and steady praise for both pasta and hospitality, it’s one of the most reliable places downtown for a formal business lunch that still feels comfortable rather than stiff.
Must-Try Dishes:
Cacio e Pepe, Rigatoni Bolognese, Prime Sirloin Steak
What Makes it Special: Old-school FiDi Italian where pastas and serious steaks share the stage for client meals.
