Atera honours the poetry of nature and creativity in pursuit of an immersive sensory dining experience. It was a good reason that The New York Times described a visit to Atera as "one of the most fascinating experiences you can have in a New York city restaurant". Executive chef Matt Lightner's avant-garde cooking, combining foraged ingredients with cutting-edge molecular techniques, is thrilling and thought-provoking in equal measure. The restaurant is housed in a nondescript building in TRibeca.
