The best - Edit
I am elated that Eleven decided to go vegan. I have had the eight course meal multiple times and each dish was delightful. The menu changes seasonally. Each dish is specially curated and the service is exceptional. The menu changes every season and I absolutely love the cronut/croissant.

Top Restaurant in the world and it’s Vegan - Edit
Beautiful interior design every last detail is thought of. Staff are super friendly, knowledgeable and try to make this a one of a kind experience
Read moreFood is sublime but no surprises there as the Chef is a Michelin 3 star maestro. The dishes must have taken so long to conceive, they are unique and delicious.
A trip to the kitchen to see the Chefs in action is a must.
It’s a tasting menu that is highly experiential. A 6 course tasting menu takes over 2 hours.
Pricey but this is pure artistry.
Pros: Beyond any Vegan dining I have ever experienced , Layered flavors that are unique , The staff are great
Cons: 2 tomato dishes served together was overload

Second visit even better than first - Edit
This is the most exquisite dining experience. To be able to eat delicious vegan cuisine in one of the world’s best restaurants is such a joy. The menu is insanely creative. The food beyond delicious. The service is truly some of the best and most attentive in the world. This is food theater and art. A feast for the senses. Worth every penny. Save your $ and make a reservation - we thought it would be a once in a lifetime meal but loved it so much we are going annually.
Read morePros: Outstanding food (taste, presentation, creativity), Service is beyond compare, Beautiful elegant setting
Cons: It is expensive. (Worth it)

Amazing experience! - Edit
I took my husband here for our wedding anniversary and it was definitely worth it. We did the bar tasting menu, but was seated at a table. The bar tasting menu was more than enough food with 6 courses! Everything was so delicious and flavorful. They gave us free a champagne toast and dessert for our celebration. They even took us back into the kitchen to give us a little tour. It was so cool! We had the best time.

Absolutely amazing - Edit
This was such an incredible experience!
Read moreTheir gluten free options were amazing. The food was excellent, fresh and perfectly prepared.
Next level service too.
I also did the mocktail pairing and was blown away by how much the tastes popped and shifted with adding the drinks in.
Highly recommend and can't wait to go back.

Worth every penny! They also have a bar menu option which is a smaller menu and more affordable.

Impressive Experience - Edit
Ever since I heard about this place going vegan, I've been dreaming of a visit, and I'm so glad I finally made it. It was a really impressive experience. The service was at a level I've never experienced before, and the dishes were so creative and flavoursome, with a bit of theatre at times as well. Ultimately, it was worth the price, and there are a few of the dishes that I will never forget because they were just sublime.

NYC Vegan Experience - Edit
We had plans to visit NYC and my main request was dinner at Eleven Madison Park.
Read moreThe food was everything I wanted it to be! So delicious and creative in taste and presentation. We decided on the wine pairing that turned out to be an excellent decision. Each glass complimented the flavors in the dishes beautifully.
The unfortunate part is that we had a negative experience with the service at the start, which I explained to one of the managers when we were leaving.
Sadly, I expected more from the experience; however, I am happy I had the opportunity to dine here.
Pros: Delicious food , Fantastic wines
Cons: The wait…

Very impressive from start to finish - Edit
Went here for my birthday to celebrate and the experience was amazing. We were treated like VIPs from the moment we walked in. The presentations were creative and we'll thought out. Each dish was complex, flavorful, and beautifully assembled. I'd only been to a few 1 Michelin star restaurants and the difference between 1 and 3 is tremendous. The granola parting gift was thoughtful and since it was my birthday they gave me a delicious chocolate bar with a personalized HBD card inserted. Thank you for making it a memorable meal and evening!

Out of this world - Edit
This was such an exceptional experience that was worth every penny. It was expensive but honestly have never experienced anything like it. I would certainly go back when they change their menu to spring! If you’re celebrating a special occasion or want to celebrate an average day, this is the place to do it!

Absolutely amazing - Edit
Our experience here was incredible, like no other we've ever had. Everything we were served was delicious and flavorful with umami galore. I thought it'd be mostly tweezer food but it turned out to be a substantial meal. Service was simply outstanding throughout the evening. We were lucky to be seated at a corner table, which gave us a full view of the restaurant. It was a delight to people-watch and to observe the staff operation from our vantage point. The place was full, every table was taken, but the flow of service was just so slick and smooth that it didn't at any point feel hectic or confused. Worth the splurge if you can afford it!

Sublime - Edit
Others have raved about the food and service. Our experiences were identical. This is not an evening out to eat some food. This is a culinary experience which is to be savored as one is pampered by a perfectly choreographed serving staff.
Read moreIs it expensive? Of course it is. This is something many people would never be able to afford. Without any alcohol, it was a $1,000 evening (this included a 20% tip). It was worth every penny. The food, the staff, the ambience----food as theater!!!
DO NOT FEIGN ANY IGNORANCE WHEN YOU RESERVE, SPECIFICALLY ONLINE. YOU WILL BE CHARGED IN FULL (EXCLUDING TIP). THEIR CANCELLATION POLICY IS VERY CLEAR-----THERE ARE NO REFUNDS, NO MATTER WHAT YOUR SITUATION (E.G., ILLNESS, MISSED FLIGHT, ETC.).
Pros: Three star Michelin rating, Astounding food, Fantastic service

Amazing - Edit
The dinner here was amazing and the dishes so unusual and creative that they defy description. The service is outstanding and the servers are very helpful and friendly. The wine pairing was great - the servers know everything you could want to know about the wines and the beers. Even though the menu only changes seasonally, I would go back every week if I could afford it.

No standard to compare against - Edit
Jerry Garcia once said " Don't be the best at what you do, be the only one" - I really can't compare the experience of eating at EMP with any other vegan restaurant. For me, it is an epic experience filled with pleasurable experience overload and romance. My advice is, if you have the considerable amount of cash needed to dine at EMP or the motivation to save up, it is a unique experience that every vegan foodie should try once (or more!).
Read morePros: Massively creative menu, Friendly, attentive service , Ultimate romantic date experience
Cons: 2nd mortgage level expensive, Need to plan in advance to get reservations

Gorgeous photos! Would say that this experience - the food, the presentation and the physical experience of feel are worth the price? I tend to worry about cost a lot less if the experience is divine!

It depends on your budget of course, but as a big splurge it is definitely worth it for me. The creativity and amazing flavors were extremely memorable.

The best restaurant in the world - Edit
Literally. Its been ranked as #1. And now its fully vegan?
Read moreI went once when it was an option. Again when it was the new way.
If you can afford to once have this once in a lifetime experience please do. And what it does for veganism is amazing.

Once in a lifetime experience - Edit
"Not a clue how you can get so much flavor out of cucumber, but you can." - you can quote me on this one.
Read moreYou just have to experience it for yourself, but please please please get the wine pairing - it seems not to be the habit in the States as it is in Europe, but wine pairing should speak for itself as a default go to. The pairings were very on point (if you are over 30, do foresee a bit of a hangover the next day).
Hats off to the staff for the excellent service, recommendations and lovely conversations.
(ps: that granola you get at the end is also next level, seriously it's granola - genius)
(pps: we had the summer menu in the beginning of August '22)

Alta cocina vegana - Edit
Tuvo muchas dudas sobre la puntuación, porque es difícil comparar este restaurante con otros veganos. Con tres estrellas michelín, ofrece un menú degustación 100% plant based. Todo me pareció delicioso y muy original, y el personal muy atento. Algunos platos quizá me parecieron demasiado salados, sería mi única pega. Tiene dos opciones de menú: en el bar y en el restaurante. El primero vale la mitad del precio, unos 200 dólares, y sin duda recomendaría este, ya que es mucho más económico y la experiencia es prácticamente la misma.

What a treat - Edit
Wow. This place was such a treat and perfect for a special occasion. We went for our babymoon and loved all of the dishes. It’s very $$$ but we’ll worth it for a special occasion. The menu changes seasonally and offers fresh ingredients. We overheard if you ask for a kitchen tour, they try and accommodate you and we did get a tour. It’s really a fun experience, so definitely ask!

Unique experience! - Edit
My husband surprised me for my 30th birthday with this amazing experience. Couldn’t have spent my birthday in a better way.
Read moreFood was excellent, every dish had umami flavor and the wine pairing was perfect. We tried one of each wine pairings - standard and vintage. Both wine pairings was excellent, even my wine nerd of husband thought the vintage was a bit over the top, the standard pairing is enough and all wine was perfectly paired with the food.
Go here for the experience and to try new flavors and you will not be disappointed.
Hope I can come back some day!
Pros: Excellent food , Perfect wine pairing, Great atmosphere and service

Oversell themselves, end up disappointed - Edit
Maybe I came in with a little bit of too high of expectations given that this is a 3-Michelin star restaurant (rated during when it sold meat).
Read moreAll courses of the 2022 winter menu hit the same tasting note, nearly all had some mushroom or truffle element.
Given how much we spent ($320 min./person) and that price no longer includes gratuity, we both wished we would have bought $600 worth of food elsewhere.
