Major Food Group has taken New York City by storm! Founded less than a decade ago by CIA graduates Mario Carbone '00 and Rich Torrisi '01, along with Jeff Zalaznick, the group's 18 restaurants-now stretching all the way to Hong Kong-have earned myriad awards and honors, including two Michelin stars. Now you'll have an opportunity to experience two of their great Manhattan restaurants, with separate gift certificates to The Lobster Club and THE POOL.

The Lobster Club is a Japanese Brasserie that celebrates a unique interpretation of Japanese cooking and sushi. Classic techniques like tempura, gyoza, yakitori and robata are on display along with a focus on teppanyaki and sushi. Fish is sourced through the chef's personal relationships at Tokyo's Tsukiji market, ensuring the highest level of quality. Everything on the menu has been designed to be shared, with the focus on food and fun, not formality.

THE POOL is a seafood restaurant located inside one of the most famous dining rooms in America, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Philip Johnson. This landmark architectural treasure is the perfect setting to present the bounty of the world's oceans, prepared with an eye towards simplicity and a focus on fun. THE POOL hosts a celebratory experience for all of the senses, incorporating art, architecture, food, and drink.

Together with its partner, THE GRILL, THE POOL has garnered many accolades, earning five stars from Time Out New York and receiving the title of Best New Restaurant in America from both Esquire and GQ Magazine in 2017.

Restrictions: None.
