great service, tiny meal 1/17/2008

I had remember when I had dinner there about 4 years ago and left satisfied. My snapper entree was smaller than my palm. I ask the server if the rest was coming. he said no. Im not a big eater but the having 5 bites of my fish, it was all gone. All gone. I guess that is a big minus if you really into the food. more

Danny done did it 7/20/2007

Danny Meyer knows what's up. This place is DECENT (and I don't mean ""decent"" as in so-so, I mean ""DECENT"" as in GOOD - notice the capitalization). The service is excellent and very well orchestrated. As someone who used to work the night shift at a 24-hour small town diner, I was very impressed. A far cry from how we used to haphazardly serve up chicken fingers and jalapeno poppers to the sloppy drunkards that frequented that place. Atmosphere is also very nice - modern and very spacious considering that they'll charge you $1000/month to rent out a closet in this city. Pros: Awesome food, service, and atmosphere...and of course the FREEBIES! Cons: Expensive, small portions more

Great meal 7/2/2007

We had a thoroughly enjoyable meal here recently. The food was excellent; I highly recommend both the suckling pig and the lamb. The service was perhaps a bit overly solicitous but generally very nice, and the pacing of the meal felt sedate, but not too slow. Some of the flourishes are perhaps a bit too precious (spooning out quenelles of salt and pepper was over the top and silly), but the food is prepared with obvious attention to detail. I would hate to be a prep cook here because of all the tiny piece work, but it certainly looked great on the plate! Prices are in line with what similar restaurants charge, and of course the dining room itself is lovely. Pros: Ambiance, attention to detail more

Excellent Dining Experience 6/13/2007

Recently went to 11 Madison, first time since chef Daniel Humm took over the kitchen. As usual, the service and ambiance of the restaurant are incredible. The food was equally outstanding - the gnocci and scallops are great apps, for main courses we had the suckling pig and loup de mer. Both excellent. This restaurant is a perfect choice for fine dining, special occassions, etc. Highly recommended. Pros: Food, service, decor more

Not Worth the Money 6/12/2007

I've read countless reviews on how the chef is a genius. Genius he may be but with a high-priced pre-fix menu and portions that were fit for a toddler, I left 11 Madison disappointed. $350 lighter (on a dinner for two), I had 2 rounds of drinks, 2 ports, the lobster pre-fix and veal pre-fix. The lobster was very good but tiny; the whole portion fit into a baby's palm and if you don't believe me, you should check out the restaurant yourself. The veal entree was no bigger with a veal portion that was about 1 inch in diameter accompanied by sweet bread about the same diameter. Overall, if you have money to burn, I would go. if you know something about food nobody else does, you should go. If you have a slightly sophisticated palette yet have an appetite greater than that of a 5 year old, I would choose a more solid, traditional favorite. Pros: Great pre-war space Cons: Pre-fix menu, no a la carte ordering more

Impeccable service; superb food! 5/20/2007

The service at this restaurant is effortlessly excellent. They don't try too hard and are not pretentious and patronizing either. They make you feel important & are friendly without being intrusive. The food is excellent---lots of attention to detail. I have been here twice for business dinners and once for a personal dinner and it was great each time. The crowd is not hip or happening but understated...some ""foodies"". Pros: Great food & service more

IMPECCABLE SERVICE 3/11/2007

There is a reason this restaurant continues to be a New York classic. The staff is amazing, knowledgable, and unpretentious while still managing to project the decadence of the restaraunt. Daniel Humm is the esteemed new chef and came out to introduce himself at the end of the meal which really made the night. He also sent each of us home with a breakfast brioche. As for the food, obviously excellent - one recommendation - even if you're craving sweet give the cheese plate a try at the end of the meal it was delicious. more

One of most innovative chefs in the US 1/27/2007

I admit to being a major Daniel Humm fan--I would go to Campton Place in SF when he was there every time I was in SF. I visited Eleven Madison for the first time and he has elevated his game for NYC. The amuse bouce offerings were great--each one a taste to remember. I had the farm egg with caviar followed by a lobster dish with a great foam as you expect from Chef Humm. I was alone and had wines by the glass--a good selection if a bit expensive for their quality. Overall, a great meal. NYC is lucky that Mr. Humm has departed SF for his current venue. Pros: Absolutely wonderful and innovative dishes more

Incredible Dining Experience 11/10/2006

This is one of the best meals that I have had in a while. The place is gorgeous. With the high ceilings and the beautiful flowers. Plenty of space between tables so that you dont feel people are on top of each other. The service is attentive withought being overbearing or stuck up. The food consists of well thought out paring of flavors. It is typical that people will complain about the portions. Its not about the huge burger here - not b@ng for your buck. Its about the quality, presentation and preparation of the food. Between all the amouse bouches, app, main course, dessert and petit fours how can anyone seriously leave hungry. I left very satisfied and took home the little bread/cake they give you for breakfast the next morning. Or to eat after dinner if you're still hungry -but you will not. more

What happened? 11/2/2006

The first time I went here, I loved it. Booked a reservation of Valentine's day and they were out of seafood. Granted I had a late timeslot but still, they should have planned better. When I went back last month, they had switched the menu to prefix without noting it when I made the reservation. The food is good and inventive but not worth the price. There are much better places to spend your money if youre looking to visit a nice restaurant. more

Worth at least one visit 8/28/2006

Dining here is an experience, albeit a very, very expensive experience. The restaurant itself is beautiful -- very spacious with high ceilings, but not in a way that makes you feel isolated. The staff is attentive and knowledgable, but not a way that is intimidating. The food is beautifully presented and very, very creative. My friend ordered a halibut that had been slow-cooked in a 150 degree oven, and it was the most tender halibut I'd ever tasted. The portions are small, but they provided an amuse bouche with every course. For example, prior to our appetizers, we each received an amuse bouche of raw oyster, a cheese puff, and a foie gras creme brulee. Definitely worth experiencing at least once in your life. Pros: Decor, Food, Service Cons: $$$$ more
