Dining at Jean-Georges at Columbus Circle
Jean-Georges is chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s flagship, a two-Michelin-star, New York Times four-star dining room on the ground floor of the Trump International Hotel at Columbus Circle. The contemporary French cooking, laced with American and Asian accents, runs to tasting menus and signatures like the egg caviar and sea trout, all framed by floor-to-ceiling views of Central Park.
This is a special-occasion room in every sense, from the service to the price tag, and it’s closed Sunday and Monday. The adjacent, more casual Nougatine keeps broader daily hours and has long been prized for one of the better value prix-fixe lunches in the city, plus a lively bar.
What to Expect
