Elmo Restaurant

"Elmo Takes Manhattan!”
- New York Magazine


"The Best Restaurant of the Year.
Swanky, trendy décor and American "comfort” cuisine, beautiful people and an achingly cool reputation make Elmo our pick for the best eatery of the year!”
- Instinct Magazine


"Part of the Chelsea arts scene? A follower of fashion? Part of the uber-attractive crowd? You'll love this sleek hotspot with the chicest of chow.”
- Gotham Magazine


There's "no pressure" and not "too much attitude-yet" at this Chelsea eatery that attracts a fashionista crowd with "fabulous cocktails" and fancy schmancy 1960's Miami decor. Its "downstairs" lounge is a more recent addition, but already so loud "you'd better brush up on your sign language!"
- Zagat

we walked around in awe as bits of sunlight slipped through the shuttered windows to light the dining room, untouched since closing night in 1968.
