Aquavit is a Scandinavian restaurant located at 65 East 55th Street in Midtown Manhattan , New York City. [1] In November 2016, an outpost was launched in London by Philip Hamilton.

History [ edit ]

Aquavit was created and opened by Hakan Swahn in 1987. [2] and was a pioneer in New York in creating two distinct dining rooms, a casual cafe with modern but rustic fare as well as a cutting-edge modern dining room. This was conceptually based on the Stockholm restaurant, Operakallaren , whose owner, Tore Wretman , was one of Aquavit’s original partners. Aquavit with the arrival of Chef Marcus Samuelsson in 1995 garnered greater culinary recognition. [3]

After 17 years in one location ( 13 West 54th Street [4] ), Aquavit relocated in 2005 to new premises, giving the restaurant an entirely new look. Aquavit opened a second restaurant in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1999, but it failed to take hold and ultimately closed in mid-2003. [5]

Aquavit enjoyed a three-star rating from The New York Times from 1995 until 2010, and 2015 onward. [6] [7] and was ranked by New York Magazine in 2006 as the 9th-best restaurant in New York.

In 2002 the cook book “Aquavit and the new Scandinavian Cuisine” was written by Marcus Samuelsson based on the food of the restaurant. [ citation needed ]

Awards [ edit ]

The restaurant has received a number of awards and accolades over the years, including:

In 2013, Zagats gave it a food rating of 25. [15]
