The Sweetbitter set would be fascinating to see as an overhead layout, because I expect they arranged it for easier camera placement. Like how multi-camera sitcom houses and apartments are built deep but look cramped from the front.
When I said it looked like a real restaurant, I mean that there was room enough for cars to drive by outside; there was a side walk leading to an entrance; there was an actual restaurant. It didn’t look like a film set; it looked like they had rebuilt an entire building inside a larger building.
And presumably they built it even larger than a real restaurant would be built, because cramped-looking spaces need enough extra room to fit a camera, and often a camera guy. It’s like describing night shoots. Darkness takes a lot of light to see.

The Brooklyn Navy Yard is where they built those giant WW2 era battle ships. The factories are ten stories high and can cover acres.

I saw it with my own two eyes. It didn’t look like a film set; it looked exactly like an upscale NYC restaurant.
