Sirrah, a French restaurant from September Hospitality founder Ryan Harris and Libertine owner Cody Pruitt, has debuted in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District.
For the interiors of the 120-seat concept, London- and Los Angeles-based design studio Fettle leaned into French maximalism, reimagining the opulent glamour of a New York supper club through vivid pattern play, eclectic detailing, and layered materiality.
A visual journey through Sirrah
Rather than a singular open space, the restaurant unfolds through a series of intimate rooms. Guests enter through a patterned vestibule before slipping past a curtained opening into the first reveal: a 10-seat entry bar clad in handpainted, backlit patternwork.
From there, a passageway leads to the main dining room, a dramatic oak-paneled space punctuated by blackened mirrors, glowing blown-glass chandeliers, and a kaleidoscope of patterned textiles. At its core is a private dining room with trellis-wrapped walls, designed as the centerpiece for Sirrah’s rotating art program.
An adjoining 24-seat bar continues the layered narrative, framed by burled oak, colorful lounge seating, and a glowing gantry of textured glass that displays an eclectic liquor selection. Below the main level, a hidden basement lounge unveils even more theatricality with mirrored walls, a luminous backlit floor, and plush red-velvet seating.
Acoustics that elevate the Sirrah experience
Acoustics are central to the Sirrah experience. Fettle partnered with House of Sound to create an immersive audio environment, complemented by Italian-made acoustic textiles that double as soundproofing and design detail.
