About this venue

King is relaxed, simple and elegant. From the dining room’s muted tones and white tablecloths to the ever-changing offerings steeped in traditional flavor pairings and techniques — it is both a neighborhood restaurant as well as a celebratory destination. Our menu changes daily, featuring seasonal, simple food with influences from Southern France and Italy. At King, wrote Pete Wells in his 2018 review, “what you really notice is how many little moves they know that can raise a recipe from good to exceptional.” All catering, including food and beverage services, is handled in-house. King is an ideal venue for couples looking for an intimate celebration with a classic Soho feel and West Village charm. Our seated capacity is 36 guests. Additionally, we can accommodate up to 65 guests for a standing reception-style wedding.

A Downtown Gem: Perfect for an Intimate Gathering
•Verified review
•Mariana V.•Jan 17
King is a perfect choice for couples who truly care about food. Nestled in downtown Manhattan, this intimate restaurant transforms weddings into sophisticated gatherings. The space is warm yet refined, striking the ideal balance for an elegant celebration. Its scale makes it perfect for smaller gatherings, where every guest feels thoughtfully included in the experience. And then, there’s the food. King’s menu is nothing short of exceptional—a tribute to seasonal ingredients and masterful simplicity. Every dish reflects a deep respect for quality and flavor. For couples seeking a venue where the food shines as brightly as the moment, King is the perfect backdrop for a chic intimate wedding.

King is a no-brainer if you're looking for an intimate spot for a wedding lunch or dinner buyout with top-notch food, beverage (the wine list is one of the city's best) and service that can be dressed up or down. Nathalie and the whole team executed a beautiful lunch for 20 on our wedding day. From the food, which was truly one of the best meals I've had at King (no small feat when executing for a group), to the elegant setup of the room, attentive service and the giant, show-stopping pavlova (an absolute must) to end the afternoon, it was exactly what we'd hoped it would be. Huge thanks again to the whole team for making our day what it was!

Our experience working with the team at King was exceptional. From the outset, their communication was warm, responsive, and flexible, ensuring that we felt supported throughout the planning process. Nathalie and her team were truly collaborative, embracing our vision and working tirelessly to bring it to life. On the day of the event, the staff demonstrated impeccable hospitality, ensuring everything ran seamlessly, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the celebration. While the food and bev at King are always outstanding, it was the best I had ever had on our day— a testament to the love and attention they dedicate to every detail, no matter the scale of the event. We are deeply grateful to the team at King Restaurant for making our wedding day unforgettable.

From the moment we booked our wedding at King Restaurant, their team demonstrated a thoughtful, considerate, and meticulous approach that put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself was intimate, elegant, and celebratory, creating a truly festive and charming atmosphere for our special day. They went above and beyond to customize every aspect, including crafting signature cocktails that reflected our favorite drinks with personal meaning, and serving an amazing spread of seafood towers, antipasti, and even espresso martini shots at the end of the night. The King Restaurant team's (thank you Nathalie and Angeles!) attention to detail and commitment to making our wedding day perfect was evident in every moment, and we are so grateful for the incredible experience they provided.
