The best Midtown birthday restaurants

Midtown Manhattan, best identified by its iconic and historical sites, offers a whirlwind of excitement… until you actually live there. The neighborhood’s attractions devolve from mesmerizing must-sees to eyesores with time. If you are a local, by the time your birthday rolls around, don’t blame yourself for wanting refuge from socially-unaware tourists and celebrating with (gasp!) just. a. dinner… like everyone in a normal city.


Local residents may feel pressured to lean into the NYC lore, with the Empire State Building, Radio City, Times Square, and the Plaza Hotel right at the fingertips of Midtowners, but luckily, Midtown has been kind enough to cater to all those seeking oasis from flashing lights and overstimulating crowds. These dinner spots are tastefully curated to allow authentic Manhattan personalities to shine in the birthday spotlight amongst friends and loved ones. Just don’t talk about any of these restaurants too loudly, or Midtown’s best-kept secrets might get in the wrong hands of first-time visitors.

My Big Fat Greek Birthday: Limani

Midtown

Can’t make it to Santorini or Mykonos to celebrate your birthday? Not a problem. Limani brings the coast of Greece to Manhattan with its fresh seafood-focused menu.


High ceilings, dramatic white marble, and blue décor transport guests to the coast of Greece despite being steps away from Rockefeller Center. You have no shortage of dining choices, with a range of Greek staples from spanakopita to swordfish to lamb chops.


The menu speaks for itself, but if that’s not convincing enough, Limani’s infinity pool turns from bright blue to violet adding just an extra touch, and making it a strong contender for a birthday celebration in Midtown.

People-watching with a presidential twist: Upland

Midtown

Regardless of your political outlook, dining in the footsteps of a president is a good indicator that you’ve found a boujie birthday restaurant. Boasting a clientele of Obama and Clinton, Upland brings together foodies and political fanatics in a marriage of expensive eats.


Upland’s warm and inviting atmosphere sets the tone for celebration. The menu blends California with Tuscany, and while spending over $50 on an entrée alone may sound absurd (I’m looking at you, crackling porcelet), the mouth-watering meal is well worth the splurge.


Upland seeks to provide a relaxing and joyful meal, and after a birthday dinner with loved ones in this atmosphere, you’ll leave feeling nothing but that: relaxed and joyful.
