Eleven Madison Park is a plant-based fine dining restaurant overlooking Madison Square Park in New York City. First opened in 1998 as a French brasserie, the restaurant has been headed by Chef Daniel Humm since 2006 and owned by his company Make it Nice Hospitality since 2011. Eleven Madison Park has evolved significantly under his leadership both in food and in experience, earning several accolades including 4 stars from the New York Times and 3 stars from the Michelin Guide.

In 2021, Eleven Madison Park reopened its doors post-pandemic as a completely plant-based restaurant.
