Toast to a new era for Park Tavern.

Champagne is on the house.

Way back in 2011, restaurateur and owner of Marlowe and The Cavalier, James Nicholas, opened Park Tavern on Washington Square. With its iconic location, spacious interior, and excellent food, it became a neighborhood anchor almost overnight. Within a year, Park Tavern had nabbed a James Beard nomination for best new restaurant.

Last December, Park Tavern closed for good—or so everyone thought. Now, the restaurant’s fortunes have reversed. Park Tavern hasn’t just reopened: with chef Jonathan Waxman at its helm, a remastered look by designer du jour Jon de la Cruz, and a new bar program by Jeff Lyon of Third Rail, it has reawakened with a vitality that would impress even its 2011 self.

While honoring its legacy as a neighborhood gem, the reimagined restaurant showcases Waxman’s signature California cuisine—simple, seasonal, and ingredient-driven. Open for brunch and dinner, guests can enjoy fresh seafood, woodfired pizzas, housemade pastas, and dishes like grilled chicken with salsa verde. 7x7 Social Club members get complimentary bubbles for two with a meal.
