Eleven Madison Park

An institution and representative of NYC fine dining.

I went with my parents and partner, and we got five course bar tasting menu which better fits our appetites. Eleven Madison went all vegan a few years ago, but more recently they brought back protein options. In the tasting, you can opt for one or the other. The radish salad was served to everyone, and the radish tea[1] they served was great with a ton of umami. I chose the scallops, silken tofu, and duck, and the duck was fantastic and my favorite. It was perfectly cooked with a well seasoned five spice and sichuan peppercorn rub. The service was A+, to be expected of a three Michelin star spot, and our server was warm and extremely attentive. Given it’s $$$$ price, it’s def a special occasion place for most[2], but worth checking out at least once.
