With its villa-style atmosphere, Romeo and Juliet balconies, and warm, attentive service, there are few places where you feel equally at home and on holiday than at Il Mulino New York inside the Acqualina. Once through its doors, guests are transported into a world of refined elegance that blends Old World traditions with a modern approach (tux and tails not required!) for a thoroughly relaxed ambience amidst tapestries and wrought-iron chandeliers. Outdoors, three “Romeo & Juliet” balconies perched above the terrace create one-of-kind dining alcoves that overlook the pool and beach. It’s a special place to celebrate family and friends-who-are-family over a Thanksgiving repast that Chef Michele Mazza and his talented culinary team have created for a November 25th celebration. The mouthwatering prix fixe Thanksgiving menu with its distinctive Italian touch includes pumpkin gnocchi, organic roast turkey with fresh cranberry sauce, walnut and sausage stuffing, sauteed green beans with roasted almonds, mashed potatoes and pumpkin cheesecake for just $60 per person, plus beverages, tax and gratuity.
