ELEVEN MADISON PARK
Eleven Madison Park is a fine dining restaurant located in the heart of New York City. The restaurant overlooks Madison Square Park, one of the most beautiful parks in Manhattan, and sits at the base of a historic Art Deco building on the corner of 24th Street and Madison Avenue. Located here since 1998, it underwent a full-scale renovation and redesign in the summer of 2017.
The restaurant has been owned by Chef Daniel Humm since 2011 and during that time it has evolved considerably, both in food and in experience. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the restaurant became a full scale commissary kitchen in partnership with Rethink Food, producing and delivering up to 3,000 meals per day to New Yorkers experiencing food insecurity.
DANIEL HUMM
Daniel Humm is the Chef/owner of Make It Nice, which includes Eleven Madison Park and Davies and Brook at the Claridge's Hotel. Over the next year, Humm and team will open a forthcoming restaurant at the new 425 Park in New York City.
A native of Switzerland, Humm began working in kitchens at the age of 14 before earning his first Michelin star at the age of 24. In 2003, Humm relocated to the United States, recruited to run the kitchen at San Francisco's Campton Place, where he received four stars from the San Francisco Chronicle. Three years later, he moved to New York to become Executive Chef at Eleven Madison Park.
Over the course of his tenure, Humm has transformed the restaurant from an everyday brasserie to one of the most celebrated restaurants in the world, leading the team in receiving numerous accolades: four stars from The New York Times, James Beard Foundation Awards including Outstanding Chef and Outstanding Restaurant in America, three Michelin stars, and the #1 spot on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list in 2017.
In the Fall of 2019, Humm released his latest cookbook, titled Eleven Madison Park: The Next Chapter, before returning to open his newest concept at Claridge's, where he spent his formative teenage years working in the kitchen as a line cook.
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, Daniel partnered with Rethink Foods to create a commissary kitchen at Eleven Madison Park to feed first responders, healthcare workers, and the food insecure.
