Altamarea Group Joins the Bilt Neighborhood to Connect Its Restaurants with Local Communities and Create New Guest Experiences

Through Bilt Neighborhood OS, Altamarea Group will connect its restaurants to nearby residential communities, offices, hotels, and sports fans to reach new guests, unlock neighborhood spending power, and deliver personalized dining experiences

NEW YORK, NY — Nov. 10, 2026 — Altamarea Group, the global hospitality group behind celebrated restaurants including Marea, MORINI, 11 Woodfire, Ai Fiori and 53, today announced a partnership with Bilt, the neighborhood membership and commerce platform, to bring its restaurants into the Bilt Neighborhood, connecting them to the communities where people live, work, stay, and gather.

Altamarea Group has built its business around creating world-class dining experiences that combine culinary innovation, exceptional service, and genuine hospitality. Through Bilt Neighborhood OS™, an AI operating system that helps businesses grow by reaching new customers and building loyalty through personalized experiences in their neighborhood, Altamarea Group will build on that foundation by creating new ways to connect its restaurants with local residents, office workers, hotel guests, and sports fans, reaching new customers while delivering more personalized dining experiences.

By joining the Bilt Neighborhood, participating Altamarea Group restaurants will be able to:

  • Reach new guests through neighborhood channels: Connect with Bilt’s growing network spanning 1 in 4 U.S. apartment buildings and more than 50,000 merchant partners, creating new opportunities to reach residents, office workers, hotel guests, and sports fans throughout the neighborhood.

  • Tap into neighborhood spending power: Bring incremental spending into participating restaurants by enabling eligible customers to use credits, rewards, and benefits made available through Bilt’s residential, office, hotel, and sports partners.

  • Create experiences at the moments that matter: Welcome residents who have just moved into the neighborhood, bring fans together around game day, or create personalized dining experiences for local professionals and hotel guests.

Beyond reaching new guests, the partnership will help Altamarea Group build stronger, lasting customer relationships by connecting Bilt Neighborhood OS with Altamarea Group’s existing guest engagement tools and restaurant systems. This will create new opportunities to recognize returning guests, deliver relevant benefits, and build loyalty that extends beyond any single visit.

Bilt’s AI agents work across participating businesses’ existing systems to help enable more seamless guest recognition, personalized offers, and connected hospitality experiences. For Altamarea Group, this could mean helping a restaurant team prepare for a guest’s anniversary dinner, remembering a regular’s dining preferences ahead of their next reservation, or following up after a memorable evening with a thoughtful invitation to return. The partnership is designed to make hospitality more personal while supporting restaurant teams through the systems they already use.

“We want every guest to feel like we’ve been expecting them, whether it’s their first visit or they’ve been coming to us for years,” said Rebecca Levine, VP of Client Hospitality & Events at Altamarea Group. “Bilt gives us a way to welcome more of our neighbors and get to know them better. By making the work behind the scenes more efficient, we can spend more time on the details that make a visit feel personal, from remembering a favorite table to helping celebrate a special occasion.”

“The hallmark of exceptional hospitality is making every guest feel like the restaurant knows them,” said Ankur Jain, Founder and CEO of Bilt. “Altamarea Group has built its reputation on exactly that level of care and attention. With Bilt Neighborhood OS, we’re helping its restaurants extend that personal touch to more guests, combining the power of AI with the kind of thoughtful service that makes a dining experience unforgettable.”

Bilt’s inaugural State of the Neighborhood Study, conducted with 451 Research by S&P Global, found that two-thirds of U.S. consumers do at least 80% of their everyday spending within 15 miles of their home. Dining is a big part of that: at a median spend of $175 per month among respondents, it’s the second-highest everyday spending category after groceries, and it’s almost entirely in-person. The study also found that 95% of consumers say they would try a local business if they could earn rewards there.

The partnership will begin rolling out across eight Altamarea Group restaurants in New York, Washington, D.C., and Beverly Hills, with plans to expand to additional locations over time.

Together, AMG and Bilt are creating a more connected neighborhood dining experience, where restaurants can grow through the communities around them and guests can enjoy more value, recognition, and personalized hospitality.
