Le Cirque is a famed French restaurant in Manhattan owned and operated by Sirio Maccioni. Currently at One Beacon Court (151 East 58th Street), it is 16000 square foot restaurant designed by Adam Tihany and architect Costas Kondylis. [1] There is another location at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. [2] The Maccioni family also owns and operates Osteria del Circo.

This is the third location for Le Cirque but it has long been famous among the crowd known as "the Ladies who lunch." It's first location stood for 22 years on East 65th Street. From 1996 until it's closing after New Year's Eve 2004, it was located at the Villard House at the Palace Hotel (it was then called Le Cirque 2000) [3] This location has been open since May 30, 2006.

From 1986 to 1992, Daniel Boulud was executive chef. [4] The current chef is Pierre Schaedelin and the menu will have food that is 'neither French nor Italian, but simply Le Cirque." [5]
