Resident x 21 West End

Resident is an experiential dining concept based in NYC. We take over luxury apartments, lounges, and chef demonstration kitchens, like 21 West End, to host intimate dining events with chefs from the world’s best restaurants. You have access to our 70+ Michelin-trained chefs (formerly of restaurants including Aska, Carbone, Gramercy Tavern, Per Se, and more), 40+ sommeliers, 20+ mixologists, 10+ luxury venues, and our world-class project management team. With the same effort as a large group reservation, you can create a one-of-a-kind, memorable event that your guests will talk about for months. Instead of a traditional PDR, the chef for the evening will design a menu just for your group. They’ll personally introduce each course, along with its inspiration, with a sommelier doing the same; and all of these tidbits serve as great natural icebreakers that get the room to engage. With a 100% private space and a world-class F+B team, we combine the elegance of Michelin dining with the excitement of a dinner party. Our Midtown West location, 21 West End Apartments, is an oasis situated between Central Park and the Hudson River. This space features an intimate private dining room with a Chef’s Counter, giving guests the opportunity to sit and watch as our chefs bring their meals to life in an expansive open kitchen. There is ample lounge seating with a full bar and a sprawling 3,500 sq ft outdoor terrace, making this space ideal for different events ranging from corporate entertaining and networking gatherings to brand activations and outdoor terrace parties. Our F+B packages include a wide range of offerings for seated dinners, cocktail parties, cooking demonstrations, wine tastings, mixology classes, and more.
