Startle

Eleven Madison Park pays attention to the details, right down to the coffee and tea service before dessert. It is, after all, the last impression the Five-Star restaurant will leave on your memory, and the staff strives to make it a good one.

If you like to end your dinner on a strong note, Eleven Madison Park has a staffer specifically dedicated to running the high-end La Marzocco espresso machine. Guests looking for some showmanship can also ask that their coffee be prepared tableside in a siphon coffee brewer or a Chemex, an hourglass-shaped container made of heat-resistant glass used to brew a single serving of coffee to your taste. Eleven Madison Park uses specially roasted beans from the Chicago-based Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea, as well as high-quality, loose-leaf teas, including decaffeinated varieties.
