Damn. Look, I tip heavily, but if I go to a restaurant and 1 full meal is over $300, then the wait staff should just be getting a good salary, and I don't think a tip is necessary there. The high service should just be standard at a Michelin place, not something I need to pay extra for.
They used to be "service included", but then removed it and didn't lower their prices (as far as I'm aware). Agree with you about the expected standard at a Michelin place - I wish they would include service in the overall price.
Thanks for the insightful and polished video. Radishes were my sister's favorite so I always make sure to include them in every meal, particularly in special occasion meals so it was nice to see they had a FULL radish course. The price tag of this meal is out of my budget but it was very nice, as a vegetarian, to see.
Thank you for watching and commenting! I loved the radish course and any attempt at elevated vegetarian/vegan food. I hope you can enjoy any version of that soon (doesn’t have to be at Eleven Madison!).
@@bonvivantlifestyle Thank you so much for that very kind and thoughtful comment. I really appreciate it. Anytime I eat a radish I have a nice memory of my sister. Will actively follow your channel going forward.
2:00 That's a terrible story imo 😬 If I ever went to a restaurant like this I'd go there for the high quality materials. No matter how you dress up a street hot dog, it's still probably the worst product of the meat industry... I wouldn't expect any respectable chef to put that on my plate 😐Very interesting video though, thanks for sharing. I love the fact that they retained the stars after turning vegan, that's super impressive. Nice to see what it's like in reality.
You’re not alone with your opinion on the hot dog - it horrified many people, but I was overwhelmed by the thoughtfulness of gesture as opposed to the quality of the product. Thank you for watching!
Is there a dress code? We've never been there but we are going in a few week. The website says no dress code/dress casual/business casual. But really, I don't think that's not entirely true. Also the website say gratuities is included. idk
Check the FAQs on their website (linked below). Gratuities are NOT included, which was the case when we dined at EMP in December 2023. And while they say no dress code, don't take that too literally - you should still look nice with clean shoes and a thoughtful outfit. You'll get better service and feel better about yourself!

1200 for a meal!?!? We’re you full at least? I appreciate your detailed and unbiased review, very educational. I hope to try this place for myself one day
Based on my experience, I think there's better value on the NYC dining scene right now. Thanks for watching, and hope you have a great experience wherever you book!
@@jackyagp Ah very jealous - I've tried to go twice and couldn't get the reservation! Glad to hear you had a great time. Looking forward to that experience one day. Atomix is good I hear!
@@cryptohalloffame They can do better on the price and the service can be a little faster, but if we are judging just the food, there is no match in my personal opinion.
Great video, it was great to experience this vicariously through you!
Thanks for watching!
I've eaten there a number of times and it is simply wonderful.

The candle, well, at least they lit it :-)
True!
Great video! 👏👏 More of these, please!

You got scammed, I worked there. Not h
Good like used to be.

For a vegan meal, it was filling! Thanks for watching 😊
…so no 😕
Incredibly inventive, but for me, something like the New York hot dog was just too gimmicky...
Totally fair, but for whatever reason, I loved the thoughtfulness
Unreasonable hospitality, to understand it you must understand people and emotion. 🥂 people buy experience
This is very informative. My friend just asked me to book at any of michelin restaurants in NYC and this one has been discarded automatically 😂

I went to Le Bernardin! It was wonderful. Thinking of Atomix next 😂

Sorry. Reminds me of the movie The Menu (except they didn't kill anyone during your restaurant experience).
Thankfully we survived! Great movie.
rice is mooshi? you never had rissoto bro? thats like slime with your taste buds
Sorry, you got ripped off!
This is the BEST Restaurant in NYC as of this year 2024.
Not sure I would call it this way. I went to 11MP with my wife last year - it was amazingly great, but best - not sure.
except for the candle, cause, really? lol
