Modern Italian Restaurant Coming to the Plaza District

The Plaza area's dining scene is set to grow with the announcement of V Modern Italian, a contemporary restaurant concept coming to the new Cocina 47 development at 604 W. 47th Street.

Developed by Fast Fine Restaurant Group, V Modern Italian will offer a modern take on Italian cuisine featuring house-made pastas, seasonal ingredients, handcrafted cocktails, and an extensive wine selection. Created in collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Stefano Ciotti, the concept is designed to deliver an immersive dining experience that engages all five senses through food, design, music, and atmosphere.

V Modern Italian is the first confirmed tenant of Cocina 47, a new mixed-use development at the corner of 47th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. The project is expected to bring new energy to the Plaza area with destination dining, vibrant street-level activity, and gathering spaces designed to connect visitors and residents alike.

Expected to open in late 2026 or early 2027, V Modern Italian is another example of the continued investment and momentum taking place throughout the district. The Plaza District Council looks forward to welcoming the restaurant and the vibrancy it will bring to the Plaza area's evolving dining scene.
