Park Ave Kitchen opened quietly on 12/14/23, on the corner of 48th Street and Lexington Avenue in NYC. Located on the ground floor of beautiful 277 Park Avenue, Chef Burke created a New-American Brasserie with a widely varied food and beverage offering, thanks to its unique combination of ala carte dining room and cafe/grab & go shared space. Complemented by a high degree of hospitality, Park Ave Kitchen has quickly become one of the most popular midtown dining destinations.

From dry-aged steaks to fresh fish, sushi to juicy burgers, grain bowls to custom salads, delicious desserts and specialty coffees, Park Ave Kitchen offers something for everyone. Breakfast (served all day!), lunch, Happy Hour and dinner! The bar offers award-winning wines, an eclectic beer list, creative cocktails and mocktails.

Park Ave Kitchen by David Burke is Chef David Burke’s first new venture in NYC in almost 3 years, and a welcome neighbor to David Burke Tavern, his flagship NYC locale.

    Had their normally very good pop overs as starter very disappointed to say the least, 2 had salmon and broccoli both said not good and broccoli was cold. I had the duck breast and portion was very small. Not once did the waiter ask how was our dinner. Will be a while before we return very disappointing

    I was here with friends who came from out of town. When we sat down, it was pretty nice and our host was saying some wonderful things about our waiter. However, our waiter was not attentive, but rather aloof through most of the meal. He completely forgot about our drink order, and ended up comping it once we finally said something. The food was pretty subpar. I wish everyone who goes there have a different experience, but personally, will not go back.

    Hello Young, and thank you for patronizing our Park Ave Kitchen by David Burke. I am sorry if we did not exceed your expectations. Although our staff train daily in both the front & back of the house, it seems like more than one thing went wrong on the 23rd with your table. Would you mind if I called you to get some further details of your visit? All feedback is important to us and considering how lovely the beginning of your experience was, the remainder should have been even more wonderful. Thank you in advance...I look forward to following up with you. Eddie Pugsley, Director of Operations, David Burke Hospitality.

    Overall a fair experience… Our servers and team were super friendly, attentive and welcoming! However… the food was..ok. The appetizer started off good, but the main dishes lacked flavor, seasonings, and overall did not taste like anything much. At first, I thought it was just my dish and dinner plate but the rest of my family began to comment the same.

    Great location for business meals and social ones as well. The host and hostess were pleasant and helpful as was the service staff. It's an attractive setting with comfortable seating. It has become a popular place, particularly for business meals. The food was good and we each enjoyed our meals, but at lunchtime it's pretty loud.

    Pleasantly surprised by the ambience and quality of food. We had a happy hour and dinner, and I was concerned that the dinner would be too casual, but it's a separate space from the lunch space, trendy and appropriate for business dinners. The service was outstanding from the time we walked in to the time we left. Everyone was very happy with the food. Highly recommend this spot.

    Thank you so much for your kind words and for giving us the opportunity to serve you and your guests, Renae.

    It was a wonderful experience and our server and the manager could not have been kinder and accommodating. The food was outstanding, especially the lobster dumplings and the popovers! The only thing that wasn’t perfect, and no fault of the restaurant, but every time the door opened, it was freezing. It was an exceptionally cold day. Perhaps they could put some sort of barrier on those cold days, but again no fault of the restaurant.

    Hello Pamela & thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review of your recent visit to Park Ave Kitchen by David Burke. I am sorry about the door! I checked the air curtain and the sure enough, the heating element had indeed shorted out. It was repaired and is now blowing hot air, as it should have been when you were dining with us. Please do come again soon and ask for me (Eddie Pugsley) when you do...Happy New Year!
