Richly Mysterious Restaurants

Hakkasan New York by Gilles & Boissier is Warm and Welcoming

— February 4, 2013 — Lifestyle
The Hakkasan New York restaurant is a posh addition to the city that never sleeps. As though embracing the energy and, at times, mystery that surrounds the Big Apple, it is full of rich colors, dim lighting and an overall theatrical aesthetic that many will appreciate. Of course, the interior of the Hakkasan New York basically represents the brand’s global philosophy.

With a total of 11,000 square feet, the Hakkasan New York restaurant can accommodate 200 guests. Complete with a dramatically lit 60-foot bar and 80-foot entranceway lobby, it encourages people to think the experience as a journey.

Designed by Gilles & Boissier, the Hakkasan New York restaurant also has a welcoming warm ambiance that embraces these 'travellers' comfortingly. As the designers write, "A single glance can capture a wealth of different emotions and ambiences, like a snapshot of pure life that builds up frame by frame into a movie."
