Eleven Madison Park is a New American fine dining restaurant located inside the Metropolitan Life North Building at 11 Madison Avenue in the Flatiron District of Manhattan, New York City. It has retained 3 Michelin stars since 2012, and was ranked third among The World's 50 Best Restaurants in 2016,[4] and topped the list in 2017.[5]

History[]

The restaurant, initially designed by Bentel & Bentel, is located in the Metropolitan Life North Building, facing Madison Square, at the intersection of Madison Avenue and 24th Street. The restaurant originally opened in 1998 and was owned by restaurateur Danny Meyer. In 2006, Chef Daniel Humm and Will Guidara began working at Eleven Madison Park and in 2011 they purchased it from Meyer.[6] The restaurant group's name is Make it Nice.[7]

Eleven Madison Park was closed for renovation between June 9 and October 11, 2017, and completely redesigned, in collaboration with Allied Works architectural firm.[8]

Guidara and Humm parted ways in 2019, and Humm remained on as sole owner of Make it Nice.[9]

The restaurant closed again during the COVID-19 pandemic, converting into a commissary kitchen, to produce meals for the food-insecure in New York City, in cooperation with the non-profit Rethink Food. In October 2020, Eleven Madison Park began a To Go program, offering dinners for pickup for the first time in its history. Every dinner purchased provides 10 meals to New Yorkers experiencing food insecurity via the ongoing partnership with Rethink Food.[10]

Menu[]

Until the pandemic shutdown in March 2020, the restaurant offered guests a seasonal tasting menu that drew inspiration from local culture, history, and ingredients. The menu in the dining room consisted of 8–10 courses, and an abbreviated experience at the bar consisted of 5 courses. Both of these menus featured communal elements to enhance the experience.[11] It was announced on May 3, 2021 that the restaurant would be eliminating all animal products, serving a strictly plant-based menu.[12] The restaurant began serving this menu in June 2021.[13]

Cookbooks[]

The original Eleven Madison Park Cookbook was published in 2011;[14] Humm and Guidara have released additional cookbooks including: I Love New York: Ingredients and Recipes,[15] The NoMad Cookbook,[16] Eleven Madison Park: The Next Chapter,[17] and Eleven Madison Park: The Next Chapter, Revised and Unlimited.[18]
