de_DEAgern was a fine dining Scandinavian restaurant located in New York City. Situated within the iconic Grand Central Terminal, the establishment occupied a historically rich space that formerly served as the men's smoking lounge.
The restaurant officially opened its doors to the public in 2016, bringing a distinct Nordic culinary perspective to one of Manhattan's most famous transit hubs. Throughout its operation, the destination occupied a unique architectural footprint within the historic terminal building, offering diners a setting deeply intertwined with New York City's architectural heritage.
Following the eventual closure of Agern, the restaurant space transitioned into a new chapter. Another establishment, known as Cornelius, subsequently began operating in the same historical location within Grand Central Terminal, carrying on the culinary legacy of the venue.
