Service was outstanding. The appetizer and entree portions are very large. We love the Italian grilled cheese, zucchini and calamari appetizers. I typically order the seafood entrees, which are always delicious. Can’t wait to come back in the spring when they reopen the back patio dining area.

About the restaurant
Please call for parties over 4 guests. Your table will be held for 15 minutes.
The Elgin is a bar & restaurant serving upscale fare situated just south of Rockefeller Center & steps from Broadway & Times Square. Our goal is to provide sophisticated cocktails, a carefully curated craft & seasonal beer list, amazing food in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Please join us!
The Elgin’s 4 main principals, Peter Pernicone, Darwin Conner, Paul Baum & Christine Trauben, have known each other for 30 years. They all grew up on the lower west side of NYC in Chelsea & had a goal of owning a bar together & could not be more excited about opening The Elgin. As an acknowledgment of their collective history, they named a signature cocktail—the Chelsea 1724—after their neighborhood. Darwin & Paul grew up in Chelsea on 17th St and Peter & Christine lived on 24th St. They are joined by Patrick Callaghan who has been working with Peter for many years.

The food was so delicious! Live DJ playing a diverse playlist of music. The drinks were okay... but they have pitchers for $65 and it's larger than a typical pitcher. We had the Lomo and Salmon with Spicy Thai Rice. To me it was not spicy but when I tell you it was so rich with flavor, so delicious! Definitely worth a visit. they also had a live merengue band, not sure if this is every Saturday.

Very thoughtful service, and excellent food. The salad though was not very creative and the bread wasn’t warmed up. Otherwise lovely.

Stopped in for dinner before a concert at Irving Plaza - who knew a comedy club could have such amazing food! Staff was great, place is beautiful, bone marrow appetizer was delicious, so was the prosciutto wrapped Mahi Mahi. Will definitely be back. If the comedy is half as good as the food I'll probably wet myself from laughing LOL Highly recommended
