Delmonico’s.

Worth it, says Antonina. Delmonico’s was a pioneering force in fine dining in the United States during the 19th century and was the first restaurant to introduce an à la carte menu in 1834 (before then restaurants served set meals).

What I wrote thereFold it away

Established in 1827 (almost 200 years ago, imagine!), Delmonico’s recently re-opened after being closed for three years due to the pandemic and some trademark disputes (go figure). I guess three years is nothing in the grand scheme of things, considering this one of the oldest restaurants in New York City.

Delmonico’s was a pioneering force in fine dining in the United States during the 19th century and was the first restaurant to introduce an à la carte menu in 1834 (before then restaurants served set meals).
