Lever House

By New York Journal Jun 20, 2006

I dined at Lever House in late May with two colleagues. The modernist space is striking, with the abundance of hexagonal shapes almost letting you forget that the walls are a plain-Jane light brown. Tables are comfortable and impeccably set, but they are exceedingly close together, with waiters performing Olympic-class gymnastic manoevers to get to your table. The noise level is uncomfortably loud. FULL REVIEW

Lever House

Instead of a book club, me and my three girlfriends started a once a month lunch. It is sex and the city for married girls over 40. It is great. Our next lunch will be a dinner. I can hardly wait. FULL REVIEW

Family Feeding Frenzy: Katz's, Lever House, D.B. Bistro Moderne, and a Return to Jean-Georges

By The Amateur Gourmet Mar 14, 2005

Maybe it's the Jew in me ("Let me out, you putz! It's hot in here!") but I feel guilty about the meals I'm about to share with you. Guilt--am I the only food blogger who feels guilty about eating good food? Maybe because it's all so decadent. But I can shift the blame to my parents--as we already know, my parents are decadent eaters. I'm just the lucky bystander who tags along and eats what is given to me. All I crave are the simple things---a ripe tomato, a slice of cheese. It's my parents who forced this upon me. What you are about to see happened totally against my will, I was dragged along, kicking and screaming... FULL REVIEW

Lever House

By Charlie Suisman's MUG Dec 01, 2003

Design: British designer Marc Newson uses the word "pod" a lot in his designs (as far back as 1989, he created the Pod Bar in Tokyo). The restaurant benefits from his declarative use of shapes; podule tunnels, alcoves, and wall/carpet/ceiling designs. It's all very George Nelson meets George Jetson. FULL REVIEW

The Lever House

By The Strong Buzz Sep 01, 2003

Designed by Mark Newsen, The Lever House is a post-modern pod-like dining room filled with whiplash worthy celebs from Charlie Rose to Pink. Chef Dan Silverman (ex-Union Square Cafe) is a wonderful chef who honors the seasons and all sorts of appetites with dainty ladylike dishes like a silky fluke tartar heated up with chiles and orange zest, and hearty man-eating dishes like the juicy Lever House burger—a pile of recklessly flavored beef with pickled onions, sweet tomatoes on a big puffy bun that will send Atkins groupies undergound for extra carb-aversion therapy. The Lever House is one of those places that fits into almost every dining period. It is perfect for drinks after work–bar chef Rain is a whiz with booze and he'll whip you up one of his house specialites. The lemonade will knock you off your feet - don't be seduced by its fresh, minty, light, sweet-tart innocence. This drink is delicious but it is stiff. Have two and you'll know what I mean.
