The Lion

Please note: this business is now closed; nycgo.com keeps record of many old and closed venues. Featuring distinctive cuisine, a carefully selected wine list and a beautifully designed setting, the Lion occupies a 19th-century West Village townhouse. Meticulously renovated with "Old New York" in mind, the restaurant's mood is stylishly accessible. The menu is consistent with founding chef John DeLucie's signature style: classic American with an irrefutably Italian inspiration. Semi-private and private event spaces are available for events or celebrations, including intimate dinners, cocktail parties and corporate meetings.
