A legacy of culinary excellence since 1985

Restaurant history

Our Heritage

Founded in 1985 by renowned chef Jean-Pierre Dubois, FastFood237 has been at the forefront of fine dining in New York for over three decades. What began as a small family restaurant has evolved into one of the city's most celebrated culinary destinations.

Our commitment to excellence has earned us numerous accolades, including three Michelin stars and the prestigious James Beard Award for Outstanding Restaurant.

Our Philosophy

At FastFood237, we believe that dining is more than just a meal—it's an experience that engages all the senses. Every dish tells a story, combining traditional French techniques with modern innovation.

We source our ingredients from local farmers and artisanal producers, ensuring that only the finest seasonal products make their way to your plate. Our wine cellar houses over 1,000 carefully selected bottles from around the world.
