Townhouse: Dana Cifone
Townhouse in Greenwich, Connecticut, was always intended to be more than just a restaurant—it’s a destination. My vision was to reimagine this historic two-story building into a space where every detail matters: layered textures, warm lighting, and a thoughtful flow between rooms. The result is a setting that feels both stylish and inviting, designed to bring people together for moments that are elevated yet effortless.
Townhouse offers experiences for every mood and time of day. Sunlit lunches on the patio, cocktails at the buzzing bar, chic Saturday brunches with friends, and vibrant dinners in one of our interior rooms; all capture a downtown energy. Whether you’re celebrating, gathering, or simply treating yourself, Townhouse provides the perfect backdrop for connection.
While my heart is here, I also love stepping into the dining rooms of fellow restaurateurs—taking in their creativity, soaking up the energy, and appreciating the hospitality that defines our industry. Visiting other restaurants is not only inspiring, it’s a way to celebrate our shared passion that brings us all to the table.
