Tordjman and Bobrow of Norman Bobrow and Co. rep Maison Dellos Group in 19,740 s/f restaurant lease

October 29, 2012 - Brokerage
The Maison Dellos Group, owned by Andrei Dellos, is planning to open a new four-story restaurant, named "Manon" with a modern cuisine mix of French, American and Pan Asian in the Meatpacking District at 407 West 14th St. The 9,740 s/f restaurant, is expected to open in January or February. David Tordjman, senior director of retail global services, and Norman Bobrow, president of Norman Bobrow and Co. (www.normanbobrow.com), who represented the Maison Dellos Group, said that the annual rent in the four-story building is about a $1 million for space on four floors priced at $300 per s/f on the ground and $55 per s/f on the upper floors. The ground floor was previously occupied by the Little Pie Company. Tordjman said the new restaurant will occupy the first two floors and part of the third, which will also have a wine cellar. The fourth floor will be used for the company's offices. The landlord, Estate of William Gottlieb, was represented by CBRE's Sloane Rhulen and Greg Tannor. The Dellos Group also owns Brasserie Pushkin at 41 West 57th which he opened last year and other restaurants in Moscow, Paris and London. The new "Manon" is expected to mirror the group's Moscow venue and feature a similar high-end "Baroque" and art deco feel, with high windows, gilded antique mirrors, velvet sofas, tables with pearl tabletops and carved ceilings within a vintage loft. It is reported that the group's executive chef Michele Brogioni (in Moscow) will create the menu for New York's Manon Restaurant.
