Oscar Wilde, photographed by New York Dearest

In my opinion, making reservations at Oscar Wilde is non-negotiable.

Oscar Wilde was an Irish poet and one of the most popular playwrights in the late 19th century. Known for his wit and flamboyance. A criminal offense during the Victorian era, Wilde spent two years in prison because of the relationship.

This Victorian style restaurant celebrates all that Wilde stood for. Hosting an impressive art collection dating back to the 1800’s you can admire a French fireplace from the 1840’s, stained glass from an Irish castle and so much more.

In my opinion, making reservations at Oscar Wilde is non-negotiable. The unmatched decorations are some of the best you’ll find among the many Christmas restaurants in New York City.
