Rent the perfect restaurant buyout in Brooklyn

If you want to take advantage of the unique skyline views from Brooklyn, Celestine is the perfect place to enjoy a meal while watching the city go by. With the Manhattan Bridge as a dramatic backdrop, this riverfront restaurant features panoramic windows and an outdoor terrace. This venue is most popular for weddings and corporate gatherings.

Serving a mix of international cuisines, your guests can eat their way around the world without ever leaving Dumbo. Start your meal with a delicious mezze platter, enjoy pistachio pesto pasta for your entree, and indulge in Basque cheesecake for dessert.

Celestine can host parties of up to 100 people.

Named after the photography technique, Rule of Thirds is a Japanese restaurant that embraces the precision and balance required of the most seasoned photographers. The restaurant has five event spaces with interiors that are a mix of the industrial Brooklyn aesthetic and Japanese minimalism.

Rule of Thirds offers a prix-fixe menu of traditional Japanese dishes, as well as platters and passed canapes for buyout events. You can also choose to include stations with hand-rolled sushi, ramen, or a raw bar. If your event is earlier in the day, there is also a prix-fixe brunch menu.

Rule of Thirds can host up to 450 guests.

While Sunday in Brooklyn might be known for their weekend brunches (and iconic pancakes), the restaurant is an ideal spot for events any time of day, any day of the week. Private events include the use of the airy main dining room as well as the covered garden, sunroom, greenhouse, and private dining room.

Sunday in Brooklyn offers brunch and dinner menus for private events, either served family-style or as passed canapes. Exclusive to full buyouts, they also offer stations of nostalgic favorites, like pizza, sliders, ice cream sundaes, and, yes, their famous extra-fluffy pancakes.

Sunday in Brooklyn can host up to 150 guests for a full buyout.

Capturing the nostalgia of a 1950s diner, Bernie's serves American comfort food in a retro setting. Complete with red checkered tablecloths and vinyl booths, Danny Zucko and Sandy would feel right at home here.

The menu includes the kind of dishes your grandparents probably had as teenagers, with classic options like cheeseburgers, chicken parm, and brownie sundaes. However, Bernie's is not fully stuck in yesteryear - you can pair your meal with a trendy Pet-Nat or organic orange wine.

Bernie's only offers full buyouts for private events with a minimum of 45 guests and a maximum of up to 85 guests.

On an unassuming residential street, Vinegar Hill House is the next best thing to hosting a dinner party in your own home. With rustic, homey touches and probably a lot more space than your apartment, the restaurant is an inviting setting for an intimate gathering.

Get some fresh air in the backyard garden for a breezy brunch event or cozy up by the fire while you enjoy the hearty dinner menu with seasonal New American dishes. A full buyout can accommodate up to 60 guests and includes use of the main dining room, historic carriage house, garden, and fireside dining room.

If you’re looking to impress out-of-towners (or in-towners who think they’ve seen it all), this is your play. Cecconi’s Dumbo sits at the base of the Manhattan Bridge, and the views are absurd – in the best way. Inside, it’s all marble, velvet, and moody lighting, with a Venetian-inspired menu that walks the line between classic and modern. Full buyouts accommodate up to 250 guests, and there’s nothing quite like sipping a Negroni while the skyline lights up across the river. Suitable for black-tie weddings or the chicest brand party you’ll attend this year.

This tucked-away favorite feels like a secret – until you try to get a table on a Saturday night. Vinegar Hill House is as Brooklyn as it gets: exposed rafters, flickering candlelight, a wood-burning oven, and one of the city’s most low-key romantic back gardens. A full buyout includes the main dining room, garden, and carriage house, accommodating approximately 60 guests. It’s perfect for weddings, rehearsal dinners, or a big birthday where everyone eats too much and tells great stories. The menu leans rustic and comforting – think cast iron chicken and homemade sourdough.
