Description
Tucked into a landmarked 1767 carriage house in Greenwich Village, One If By Land, Two If By Sea is an enduring institution revered as the “proposal capital” of New York City, defined by its blend of deep history, timeless romance, and classic fine dining. Owner Gieto Nicaj emphasizes that its appeal rests on the meticulously preserved elements of the historic building—rumored to have housed Aaron Burr’s coach and horses—while its atmosphere is heightened by candlelight, live piano music, and staff trained in the subtle art of highly personalized, intuitive service. The culinary program resists modern trends by adhering to classic American and Continental roots, ensuring the food’s consistency and precision in execution, all of which combine to provide an atmosphere of unwavering elegance for patrons celebrating life’s most intimate milestones.
