About Resident :
Resident is not a restaurant. We are a VC-backed culinary events platform that is reimagining where, when, and how people dine. We leverage the 'sharing' economy, similar to Uber and AirBnB, to host our Michelin-grade events in underutilized luxury spaces across NYC - and soon LA + Miami. Resident is a VC-backed startup that is growing quickly, and was recently ranked #391 on the INC 5000 List of fastest growing companies, and the #7 fastest growing hospitality brand.
Our chefs and sommeliers have experience at the world’s best restaurants, including: Eleven Madison Park, Noma, Per Se, and Meadowood. While the concept of a ‘pop-up’ isn’t new, our talent loves working with us because of our turnkey operational and marketing framework. We produce our events such that the talent can focus on curating the cuisine/beverage with a pre-set budget, and present it to our affluent audience.
Rather than operating in traditional commercial spaces, we partner with luxury real-estate developers that are interested in offering our programming as an amenity within their properties. The building receives a free, leading-edge experiential amenity that garners press and generates sales leads; and we receive a long-term, rent-free location to host building tenants, members of the public, and our private clients. We’ve partnered with LCOR, Related, RXR, and The Dermot Company, to name a few.
By reimagining the fixed costs of a traditional restaurant, Resident’s asset-light, variable approach will finally turn fine dining into a lucrative endeavor, all while elevating the next generation of culinary stars.
Our investors include: Valor Equity Partners, Bienville Capital (invested in: Zola, Qualia, and Ro), Quality Branded (Smith & Wollensky, Quality Italian), and Mike Kennedy (co-owner: Olmsted + Maison Yaki).
