Maison Noir Reserve

Private Events

A fourteen seat room behind an oak door, the whole restaurant if you want it, or our kitchen in yours. Every minimum and every charge is published below.

A long dining table set for a private party in a dark panelled room lit by candles.
The Salle Noire at Tribeca, set for fourteen.

The Salle Noire

A single oak table for fourteen in a room with its own service door, its own sound system and nine years of framed menus along the corridor outside. It is a private room, not a curtained corner of the dining room, and it has a dedicated server and a dedicated section of the kitchen for the length of your booking.

Bookings run three and a half hours from the seating time. There is no room rental fee. Instead there is a minimum spend on food and beverage, which is lower early in the week because that is when we need the business.

Alina Petrescu manages events across all three cities and answers every enquiry herself, usually within one business day.

A range is fine. Telling us saves a round of emails and we will say honestly if it does not work.
Occasion, any allergies you already know about, whether there are speeches, and anything that would change how we set the room.
