- 1 Outdoor
Charlie Bird is a fun neighborhood restaurant located in Soho, NYC and offering an Italian-inspired, American-executed menu developed by Chef Ryan Hardy. Theo Lieberman oversees the wine program, a list featuring an exceptional selection of vintages and delicious wines. Charlie Bird is rooted in all things New York - from the brick and mortar walls that date back to 1880, to a kitchen that only sources local ingredients for the menu, to the hip hop-inspired art that covers the walls. The menu reflects Chef and Co-owner Ryan Hardy’s thoughtful interpretation of what he describes as a nod to Italian cuisine, influenced by his passion for making cheese, curing meats, digging for clams, diving for urchin, farming produce and crafting handmade pasta. Co-owner Robert Bohr and Wine Director Grant Reynolds developed the wine list, which offers a small but compelling array of bottles. The 60-seat space is decidedly NY, manifesting an understated modern aesthetic designed to offer amazing food in an ambiance that is both sophisticated and approachable. The Private Dining Room at Charlie Bird can accommodate up to 14 diners, providing New Yorkers renting this venue with something that they rarely get: isolation. Tucked away, the private dining room includes a handcrafted, custom-built walnut table and bespoke chairs made of vintage fabric. Exposed brick walls, clean wood lines and beautiful lighting fixtures compliment the aesthetics of the main dining room. While the menu format is family-style, the private dining experience at Charlie Bird is entirely customizable; guests collaborate with Hospitality Emcee Martin Gobbée and a Wine Team member to craft the perfect evening that best fits their occasion.

It is not only an identity into which we are born; rather, it is a heritage that we should be proud of and treasure. The Center is dedicated to fostering Jewish ideals and fostering an unwavering love for the state of Israel. Both tzedakah and chesed play an essential role in the accomplishment of our purpose. By working together, we are able to bolster not just ourselves but also the Jewish people. When we talk about community at the Moise Safra Center, we talk about the past, the present, and the future. Both in terms of tradition and culture. Belonging and giving. A place of refuge that is secure, kind, and caring. In the years to come, we will continue to grow closer to one another as we celebrate important family milestones, go to and cheer at local sporting events, congregate at lectures and programs, and give our time to help others who are less fortunate. The study of Hebrew and the Torah, as well as Jewish values and beliefs, will be included into all of our regular programming and one-off events. Sephardim and Ashkenazim, who have historically prospered in their separate settings, will come together, therefore creating a fresh, inventive, and modern dialogue that will stretch and empower us. This conversation enlightens us, makes our lives more meaningful, strengthens our connections with one another, and fosters the growth of a community that is unparalleled in New York City.
