SuperNova occupied the seventh floor of the Novotel New York Times Square at 226 W 52nd St, offering a modern, glass-walled dining room and a wraparound terrace with dramatic views down Broadway and into Times Square. Known for New American fare geared to pre- and post-theater crowds, the venue paired crowd-pleasing dishes—burgers, flatbreads, salads, steak frites, seafood specials—with a full cocktail program and a lively bar. Reviews consistently highlighted the panoramic cityscape through floor-to-ceiling windows and the spacious outdoor terrace with wind screens and heaters, making it a rare indoor/outdoor option in the heart of the Theater District. For private dining and events, SuperNova accommodated a range of formats from intimate dinners to large cocktail receptions, with semi-private terrace alcoves and flexible indoor sections that could be roped or partitioned, plus the option for full or partial buyouts. The hotel setting provided event-friendly amenities such as AV support, Wi‑Fi, and coordinated catering, and planners often used the space for corporate receptions, product launches, and celebratory gatherings, particularly given its central location steps from Broadway theaters. Service was generally described as friendly and efficient, especially for pre-theater timelines, and the ambiance skewed contemporary and energetic, transitioning from bright daytime views to a vibrant evening skyline. Note: Multiple public listings indicate that SuperNova has been reported closed in recent years; availability and current private dining options at this address should be confirmed directly with the property before planning.
