About this Event
A Dinner Party Where Strangers Become Friends
Join us for our first dinner party at Casa D'Angelo — one of the oldest Italian restaurants in Little Italy, on Mulberry Street since 1904. An evening of fresh homemade pasta, Italian wine, and the kind of connection that happens when strangers share a table in a place where the walls tell over a century of stories.
"The demographic of attendees was awesome. Everyone was engaging and interested in getting to know one another." — NYC Guest
How It Works
- Mix & Mingle Session — Meet the group over a complimentary glass of wine before we sit down
- Family-style dinner — 3 courses of modern Italian cuisine, served to share
- Seat rotations between courses so you're not stuck in one conversation all night
- Intimate group size — 10-20 guests, not a massive room of strangers
About the Venue
Casa D'Angelo has stood on Mulberry Street since 1904 — originally as Angelo's, one of Little Italy's founding restaurants. Over the decades, its tables have hosted presidents and movie stars, athletes and neighborhood regulars, first dates and family celebrations. The restaurant was revitalized under new ownership in 2021, but the soul stayed the same: an entirely Italian kitchen and waitstaff, fresh pasta made by hand every morning, and the kind of warm, unhurried hospitality that makes you feel like a guest in someone's home rather than a customer in a restaurant.
Three-Course Dinner Served Family-Style
- Dinner service includes a family-style 3-course dinner for each guest.
- Each guest will also receive one complementary glass of wine included with their ticket purchase.
