## Story

A cafe serving Asian and American cuisine is opening a fourth Manhattan location, Commercial Observer has learned.

**Café Hestia**, a group of family-run delis, has signed a 20-year, 8,000-square-foot lease at the base of the **Feil Organization**’s **570 Lexington Avenue**, which it will likely also use as a catering facility, according to tenant broker **Kassin Sabbagh Realty** (KSR).

KSR did not immediately disclose the asking rent, but the average asking rent for the nearby retail corridor along Fifth Avenue from East 42nd to East 49th streets was $575 per square foot in the second quarter of 2026, according to a report from **CBRE**.

“Our strategy has remained focused on finding operators that create lasting value for our tenants and the surrounding neighborhood, and Café Hestia builds on that vision with its all-day dining concept and wide variety of offerings,” **Jordan Goldblum**, director of retail leasing at the Feil Organization, said in a statement.

Goldblum and **Randall Briskin** negotiated on behalf of the landlord in-house, while KSR’s **Albert Manopla** and **Jack Khaski** handled the deal for Café Hestia.

Café Hestia’s other Manhattan locations are at **686 Third Avenue** by **Grand Central Terminal**, **513 Seventh Avenue** near **Pennsylvania Station**, and **80 Maiden Lane** in the Financial District.

Other tenants in the 50-story landmarked skyscraper on Lexington Avenue, also known as the **General Electric Building**, include international litigation firm **Wolf Popper**, which signed a 13,400-square-foot lease in December 2025, as well as the **Real Estate Board of New York**, which has a 23,031-square-foot office.
