Everything you need to know about reserving a table and hosting a private event at our Mediterranean restaurant on Fifth Avenue.

Reservations & Dining

Booking, hours, walk-ins, dress code, and our cancellation policy.

How do I make a reservation at AMAVI?

You can reserve a table online anytime through our booking page on SevenRooms. Select your date, time, and party size, and you will receive an instant confirmation. You may also call us at (212) 532-2210 to book by phone.

Do you accept walk-ins, or are reservations required?

Walk-ins are welcome and we will always do our best to seat you. That said, reservations are strongly recommended, especially on weekends and for dinner service, as the dining room fills quickly. Booking ahead is the surest way to secure your preferred time.

What are your hours?

AMAVI is open for dinner seven nights a week:

  • Monday – Wednesday: 5:30 PM – 12:00 AM
  • Thursday: 6:00 PM – 12:00 AM
  • Friday – Saturday: 6:00 PM – 2:00 AM
  • Sunday: 6:00 PM – 12:00 AM
Do you serve lunch?

At this time AMAVI serves dinner only. Please see our hours above for current service times.

How large a party can I book online?

Online reservations accommodate parties of up to 8 guests. For groups of 9 or more, please reach out directly so we can arrange the right table or space for your party. Contact us at (212) 532-2210 or, for larger gatherings, see our Private Events section below.

Is a deposit or credit card required to book?

No deposit or card on file is required to make a standard reservation. (A cancellation fee may apply for late cancellations or no-shows — see below.)

What is your cancellation and no-show policy?

There is no charge if you cancel before the cancellation cutoff shown on your reservation confirmation. If you cancel after that cutoff, or do not show up, a fee of $20.00 plus tax per guest on the reservation will apply.

Any waiver of this fee is at the sole discretion of the restaurant. To cancel or modify a booking, use the link in your confirmation email or call us at (212) 532-2210.

Is there a dress code?

Yes. As an upscale dining destination, AMAVI asks guests to follow a casual chic dress code. The following are not permitted: hats, flip-flops or slides, athletic wear or sports jerseys, shorts, sweatpants, and costumes.

Please note that failure to comply may result in denied entry and application of the cancellation fee.

What kind of cuisine do you serve?

AMAVI offers a Mediterranean menu spanning mezze and shareable plates, grilled meats and seafood, handmade pasta, and a craft cocktail and wine program. Highlights include Spanish octopus, grilled lamb chops, whole branzino, and our signature AMAVI Martini. View the full menu here.

Do you offer hookah?

Yes, hookah is available. For the latest offerings and any seating requirements, please call us at (212) 532-2210 or note your interest when you reserve.

Where are you located?

AMAVI is at 4 E 36th St, New York, NY 10016, on Fifth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan — near the Morgan Library and a short walk from the Empire State Building. Get directions.

Private Events & Group Dining

Hosting a celebration, corporate dinner, or full buyout in Midtown Manhattan.

How do I inquire about a private event?

The best way to start is by submitting our private event inquiry form. A member of our events team will follow up to discuss your date, group size, and vision. You may also email us directly at events@amaviny.com.

What spaces are available, and what are the capacities?

AMAVI offers several settings for private and semi-private events, from intimate dinners to full buyouts:

SpaceSeatedStanding / Cocktail
Front Room68 seated (+ 10 bar stools)
Back Room47 seated50 cocktail
Full BuyoutUp to 150 cocktail

Our events team will recommend the best space based on your guest count and the style of your gathering.

Is there a minimum spend or buyout fee?

A food-and-beverage minimum or buyout fee may apply depending on the space, date, and time of your event. These details vary by booking, and your events coordinator will outline everything clearly when planning your event.

How far in advance should I book a private event?

We recommend inquiring as far in advance as possible. Dates — particularly weekends and holiday season — book up quickly, and more lead time gives us the flexibility to tailor every detail of your event.

What types of events can you host?

AMAVI is well suited to birthdays and milestone celebrations, anniversaries, corporate dinners and receptions, rehearsal dinners, and intimate gatherings, as well as larger cocktail-style events and full restaurant buyouts. If you have something specific in mind, mention it in your inquiry and our team will help shape the experience.

Can you accommodate custom menus and dietary needs?

Yes. Our team can design a menu around your group and accommodate dietary preferences and restrictions. Please share any requirements when you inquire so we can plan accordingly.
