This week we continue sharing some of our favorite Black-owned businesses to support while exploring Midtown West and Astoria.

From fine French restaurants and small-batch bakeries to yoga studios and designer concept stores, New York City is home to countless Black-owned businesses. At a time when small businesses need our support more than ever, we encourage you to consider patronizing a Black-owned business next time you’re craving a delicious meal or shopping for yourself or your home. For some inspiration, take a look at our selection of Black-owned businesses in New York, along with some of our beautiful listings located nearby.

Le Privé

Midtown West

A Victorian-era inspired dining room, as well as a heated front terrace and backyard garden, serve as the setting for Le Privé’s French fare. In addition to classic French dishes like steak tartare, bouillabaisse, and magret de canard, you can also find beignets on the menu, a nod to owner Sanjay Laforest’s Creole roots.
