The Clocktower is an American restaurant located at the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company Tower in the Flatiron DistrictofManhattan, New York City.[1] Despite its name it is on the second floor of the building, not in the structure's clock tower. The Clocktower received a Michelin star in the 2018 Michelin Guide for New York City.[2] The restaurant lost the star in 2022.[3]
To enter the restaurant, diners walk through the lobby of the Edition Hotel, also located in the building.[4] The Clocktower is a collaboration between Philadelphia-based restaurateur Stephen Starr and London-based chef Jason Atherton. It is Atherton's first restaurant project in the United States.[5]
The restaurant has a dining area, a separate bar, and a room with a billiards table.[1] The dining area is split into three separate rooms. The restaurant is decorated throughout with black and white photographs, mostly taken in New York City. Guests are provided a booklet with information about the pictures upon request.[1]
Much of the tableware used at the Clocktower was sourced by Starr employee Randi Sirkin from the website Etsy.[6] Atherton was also involved in the selection process.[6] The tableware includes porcelain plates decorated with skulls wearing crowns and other regal paraphernalia, which Atherton now uses in some of his restaurants in London and Singapore.[6]
