Union Square Cafe—the flagship business that launched Union Square Hospitality Group—has been one of the country's most beloved restaurants for more than 35 years. In our second home on 19th Street, Union Square Cafe embodies the heartfelt passion and generosity that has been the restaurant's calling card since we opened in 1985. Designed by Rockwell Group, our new home preserves the restaurant's signature charm, intimacy, and familiarity in a fresh, contemporary dining environment. Union Square Cafe has won five James Beard Awards and earned Zagat Survey's #1 ranking as New York's Most Popular Restaurant an unprecedented nine times.
