Jupiter celebrates the generous simplicity of regional Italian food and drink in New York’s iconic Rockefeller Center. With an emphasis on pasta and wine, Jupiter represents the spirit of Italy - elegance and deliciousness.
“Cocktails were spectacular. The focaccia was insanely delicious and could feed 4 people. The Service from Olivia G was top notch. They make an amazing house Caesar Salad, arancini is amazing as well. We got the chicken Milanese and Spaghetti and Meatballs to share. Portions were plenty! Not a single regret.”
“An unlikely location for such a tasty meal. Jupiter is swanky without being pretentious and does a phenomenal job marrying classic Italian dishes with a few more elevated twists scattered throughout the menu. Aside from a great meal, their manager, Pat, is a class act. After learning that the restaurant no longer offered matchbooks, Pat went above and beyond to make sure I got one mailed to my home once they came back into production. A handwritten card is not something you see in your mailbox every day, let alone from a restaurant you dined at 3 months prior. To feel like a priority even after the bill has been paid is a wonderful feeling. More people should be talking about Jupiter and I hope to dine there again soon.”
“My sister & I recently visited our hometown NYC and met some old friends at Jupiter for lunch. We had a wonderful experience. It’s a beautiful restaurant adjacent to the Rockefeller Center skating rink with views of the rink while you're dining. It certainly put us in the Christmas spirit. The food was wonderful but the portions are small for the price but it was delicious. My sister & I were wanted to eat light so we shared the arancini (rice balls) which were outstanding and the pspardelle pasta with slow cooked beef ragu. Delicious! Pancetta dessert was fabulous! Staff was great. It was an overall fun & enjoyable experience.”
“Had a wonderful experience at Jupiter Restaurant in Rockefeller Center! The atmosphere was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the service was top-notch. A special shoutout to Sam, who was so sweet and helpful throughout our meal such a genuinely kind person who made our evening even better. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!”
“Let’s start with the elephant in the room: what on earth happened to the concourse area? I was expecting something in the vein of the former Sea Grill — you know, elegant, polished, maybe even a hint of nostalgia. Instead, we got… whatever this is. A far cry from what once was, and not in a poetic way. As for the food: perfectly fine. Not life-changing, not offensive — just fine. The real shocker was the $65 “pasta water” candle, which feels like performance art about modern dining prices. Bold of them to charge museum gift shop money for something you can generate yourself by boiling noodles. On the bright side, the olives appetizer was extremely plentiful — the kind of plentiful that makes you wonder if they know something you don’t, like an impending olive shortage they’re trying to single-handedly prevent. The rigatoni was tasty and came in a decent portion, so no complaints there. The gnocco (or what they called gnocco) was… not something I would’ve recognized as gnocchi in any universe. I would’ve been disappointed, but my wife thoroughly enjoyed it, so I’ll go ahead and declare it a victory. Dessert was a tiramisu that landed squarely in the “good but not postcard-worthy” category — perfectly adequate to scratch the itch without inspiring poetry. Overall? Jupiter is a decent meal wrapped in a baffling setting, with a pasta water price tag that will haunt me for a while.”
