Eleven Madison Park

"Bake It Nice @ Eleven Madison Park / Saturdays, 11am-Sold Out, Sept. 14-Oct. 5 One of the city’s longest lines of the year (and every year) is about to appear once again outside of Eleven Madison Park in Flatiron. Here’s why you should get in it: flaky, chewy, and surprisingly buttery plant-based pastries from EMP’s pastry chef, including her viral Madison Square croissants, in seasonal fall flavors. The Bake It Nice pop-up will also have a special agua fresca, coffee to go, and some Eleven Madison Home products. It's happening every Saturday from September 14 to October 5, so you still have time to convince a friend it's worth it. " - neha talreja

"Bread Service "At Eleven Madison Park, the menu is entirely plant-based. That's exciting for people like me, who can eat everything on the menu without asking any annoying questions. Because the menu changes seasonally, I want to highlight the bread service, which is absolutely unbelievable and served with plant-based butter. I am not sure they want you to know this, but you can order multiple servings of the bread. Sorry EMP, I love you!" - brennan carley

"Price: $365 In 2021, Eleven Madison Park went plant-based. We applaud the Flatiron restaurant’s decision, but, when all you’re serving is interesting (and occasionally delicious bite-sized portions of beets and celtuce, a several-hundred-dollar check sure does sting. The attentive service, beverage program, and stately dining room are all nice touches, but they aren’t enough to make this place a must-visit." - bryan kim, willa moore, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick

"Eleven Madison Park, a three-Michelin-starred restaurant, became a vegan restaurant in 2022. Despite early scathing reviews, it has retained its Michelin rating. As part of its 25th anniversary, Chef Daniel Humm introduced a less expensive alumni series featuring renowned chefs." - Luke Fortney

"Eleven Madison Park earned the No. 1 position on the World’s 50 Best list in 2017 and maintains its three-star status with Michelin, despite the restaurant flipping to an all-vegan menu with its reopening in 2021." - Dianne de Guzman
