Stars · Manhattan
Stars
This intimate, 12-seat wine bar in the East Village is the latest opening from the team behind Claud and Penny. The walk-in only spot serves a handful of small bites alongside a 50-page wine list, at a range of price points and with plenty of by-the-glass options. It’s already the spot to be for pretty much any occasion; casual weekday date, pre-dinner drink, or a light meal where wine is the main course.
colbo next door · Manhattan
Colbo Next Door
A great new wine bar from Colbo with a simple but beautiful industrial design, antique accents, and lace details. Enjoy vinyls spinning all night (they host different DJs every week) and an excellent wine list with small bites like marcona almonds, castelvetrano olives, and cornichons. It's a perfect, low-key spot for both casual dates and late nights.
Border Town · Brooklyn
Border Town
The former pop-up and leading contender for the best flour tortillas in NYC has set up a permanent location in Greenpoint. Run by a husband and wife duo, the casual spot serves their famous tacos and family recipes, in addition to beer and cocktails.
Bar Rêve · Brooklyn
Bar Rêve
This swanky, Belle Époque-inspired bar brings a bit of sultry Parisian style to Cobble Hill. Think: red velvet curtains that open to a room bathed in velvet, Murano chandeliers, and vintage fixtures. Also noteworthy: perfect chilled martinis and craft cocktails.
SAINT · Manhattan
SAINT
The latest addition to the NYC wellness scene offers what the city lacks: personal space. Saint is a fully private sauna and ice bath studio (no communal areas) where guests have their own personal wellness suite complete with cedar saunas, cold plunges, and rain showers. Designed by award-winning studio BOND, the four bespoke suites are minimalist, sleek sanctuaries for a true (and rare) escape.
BLXXM · Brooklyn
BLXXM
The NYC-based floral design studio known for its refined, art-driven approach just opened their first showroom in Greenpoint, a beautiful space designed and built by local artists. The appointment-only studio will serve as a private showroom for their event, wedding, and home design services, as well as a creative community hub with workshops, activations, and gatherings.
Ambassadors Clubhouse New York · Manhattan
Ambassadors Clubhouse New York
One of the most talked-about new openings is the second location of London’s Punjabi hot spot Ambassadors Clubhouse (the UK location just received its first Michelin star). Inspired by the opulent mansions of Northern India, the lively restaurant is a maximalist dream (think: dark woods, jewel tones, ornate details, velvet curtains) set across two floors. But the food is no afterthought, with a menu that delivers delicious Punjabi cuisine (including their famous barbecue butter chicken chops) and a stellar cocktail list infused with regional flavors. Did we mention it's fun?
Dishoom NYC
Another highly anticipated London import is Dishoom NYC, the cult favorite Indian chain that channels 1960s Bombay with dishes like black dal, gunpowder potatoes, curries, and more. Details on location and official opening date have not yet been announced.
Golden Ratio · Brooklyn
Golden Ratio
This Clinton Hill cocktail bar comes from the team behind one of our never-fail favorites Place des Fêtes (which also happens to be right next door). Golden Ratio serves a short list of small plates but the real star is its inventive cocktail menu that’s led by seasonal ingredients and offers both full-proof and nonalcoholic drinks.
Symbol Loft
The first showroom of furniture company Symbol is a cool loft space showcasing their full collection, offering a chance to experience the brand’s lifestyle. Symbol follows a fully local approach to designing and manufacturing their pieces in America. The appointment-only loft is worth a stop for those interested in bespoke furniture, design, and artisan practices.
Lore Bathing Club · Manhattan
Lore Bathing Club
Another opening in the wellness scene is this NoHo bathhouse, designed as a neighborhood bathing club. It features a large Finnish sauna, an infrared sauna, a cold pool, and hammam-style heated benches.
Bar à Part
Following a wildly successful opening, the team behind the charming West Village French bistro Zimmi’s is already onto their next project: a wine bar right next door. The intimate, 15-seat spot will focus on wine and small plates, and is set to open in spring.
Canyon Coffee
One of LA’s most popular coffee shops Canyon Coffee is opening its first New York location in Brooklyn’s Prospect Heights. Slated for an early spring arrival, it’s the latest specialty coffee shop to make the move from LA to the big city (Maru Coffee opened in Williamsburg this past fall).
The Twenty Two New York · Manhattan
The Twenty Two New York
New(ish) in hotels is the arrival of The Twenty Two, which in its first year has become a destination for the creative set—locals and visitors alike. A London import, The Twenty Two’s New York location boasts a distinct design that’s a calm contrast to the city’s buzz, and, naturally, Cafe Zaffri is something of a scene (in a good way). The staff delivers on five-star hospitality in a way that doesn’t feel stuffy or overbearing—everyone remembers your name, where you’re going to dinner, and your coffee preference. We can’t wait to return.
Lisson Gallery · Manhattan
Anish Kapoor at Lisson Gallery
British artist Anish Kapoor exhibits a group of stainless-steel and mirror works created between 2010 and present at the Lisson Gallery.

Gagosian · Manhattan
Michael Heizer: Negative Sculpture at Gagosian

On view now until March 28, 2026 at Gagosian West 21st Street.

The New Museum
This highly anticipated LES museum will reopen on March 21 with a new, 60,000-square-foot building.
