The iconic steakhouse has teamed up with the world's greatest wax museum to fill empty seats with A-Listers and offer patrons an unforgettable dining experience.
As of Thursday, diners can toast with Jon Hamm at the bar, enjoy a moment of elegance with Audrey Hepburn, or share a laugh with Jimmy Fallon. Al Roker is also waiting to direct diners to the second floor.
"The restaurant industry is vital to New York City's economy, and it's been particularly hard hit this past year", said Vice President of Peter Luger, Daniel Turtel. "We're excited to welcome diners back indoors at 35%, and thought this would be a fun, safe way to fill some of the seats that need to remain empty as we continue to fight the pandemic. It has been wonderful working with the fabulous team at Madame Tussauds New York."
The New York City icons wax figures will remain at Peter Luger Steak House through Monday, March 1.
