Elmo

They've lasted a long time and for good reason. They do get busy for their brunches and they do have a large after work crowd. But a good meal you can get. A good time.

Because you have so many options in NYC you tend to look over a few places. Ate at Elmo's tonight and the Half-Rotisserie Chicken was 100% delicious. Served over rice / veggies and our waiter was great

Gay, gay, gay. Coming to Elmo is a throwback to another era (early 2000s) and I love it for that reason alone - not many places left like this in the city . Ok food, great cocktails , fun atmosphere .

The fish tacos are flavorful, but for an entree it’s small as it’s only 2 small tacos so I would order a side as it’s not filling. The Duncan Hines chocolate cake is yummy. Great service and vibe!

Food was perfect! Service was wonderful, very happy with our choice to stop in. Had a great time & really shouted our meals & desserts !

Appetizers are very good and cocktail menu is smart. As a whole, the entrees didn't match the level of appetizers , the steak is not seasoned and sauce served on the side is watery. Servers are superb.

A Chelsea institution which is consistently good. Great eye candy - especially if you are LGBTQ.

Fun atmosphere and an easy, safe menu. Try the Mac and Cheese appetizer (with bacon and mushrooms , if you dare) and you won't go wrong!

I love a good gay focus’d restaurant and this one has great fried shrimp and chicken fried chicken so I’m into it, also a friendly as well as attractive staff .

I love having drinks here. It's the in & now place for Manhattan gay night life. A mix of young & old come from far & wide to enjoy great food, fun, & awesome cocktails ! -Austin, The A-List: New York

Chicken was plentiful and flavorful. Also tried the steak and really enjoyed. Place was louder than I prefer, but c'est la NYC.

Elmo's Sister, Industry Bar , is welcoming SHERRY VINE to it's weekly lineup of live shows. Sherry wil be taking over Wednesdays nights starting May 2nd. 11pm. FREE. With DJ Scotty Rox. Read more

On Saturday & Sunday, all brunch drinks are $6.50 on the brunch menu !!! Switch it up and start off the "morning" right in cheap way:-)

I was expecting to hate this, but you know what? it's not bad and the prices are great for NYC. If you need to recommend a cheap place that's pretty good, this is a safe bet.

i prefer having dinner here rather than brunch . faves: tomato soup with mini grilled cheese , truffle fries , meatloaf and the rubbed sea bass

Sunday brunch is packed - and though I usually hate the uber-trendy, I have to admit, it's a good mix of value and scene. Eggs benedict are good, truffle fries are awesome. Wait goes fast.

Love the ambiance. Fun, clean , and always a great crowd. Drinks are done well too.

Fantastic place! Great location and yummy cocktails & food.

Who knew this well priced, yummy spot has one of the best homemade cinnabuns I've ever tasted. 😋

Bacon and mushroom Mac 'n' cheese . Oh. My. God! So good! Great Manhattans . Sit outside for excellent people-watching.

It's where you go to chill before you head out for night on the town , and if you decide to stay...no worries because Elmo is a fun scene to be seen in. Great and friendly bartenders and amazing food!

Lovely place. Our Salads were great. Good service . Will go there again...a happy find!

Braised short ribs delish. Truffle fries excellent

Chelsea: Probably among the best brunch places in NYC! $6.50 for any brunch cocktail and an incredible menu! Food prices range from $8-$15.

Trendy place . Got the pork chop as main. Surprised at how tender and tasty this was.

The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Definitely try the brownie with French vanilla ice cream for dessert !

Somewhat basic menu, but fun and lively spot in the evening

Lovely brunch options for those not looking to load up on bacon . Their salmon was amazing

Great food, very generous portions , fantastic cocktails , and nice ambience.

First time having a frozen margarita there, actually had 2 👍🏾

Food wasn't too bad, but this place was louder than a concert . I checked the decibel levels on my app and it's a definite . . . Go here when you don't want to do too much listening...screaming only!

Great service, nice vibes & delicious food, service is good & fast tio

Great brunch and good atmosphere. Servers are very attentive. Maybe even a celebrity siting or 2!

Chicken fried Chicken is living! Just let me! Love the gays and this restaurant !

Loved this spot for lunch and brunch . The watermelon martini and bellini 's are great!

FAB PLACE FOR BRUNCH WITH FRIENDS ON A SUNDAY GREAT DECOR GREAT DRINKS SERVICE AND GREAT FOOD

Great fried chicken sandwiches . BLT sandwiches are solid too.

The truffle fries are addicting and the prices make everything worth it!

Truffle fries w/parmesan are a win every time. Best spicy bloody Mary in lower Manhattan !!

The meatball sandwich and tiger shrimp Bahn mi were winners

Great spot for late night food and drinks!

Great brunch in the heart of Chelsea. Dog friendly outdoor seating area . Give out milk bones and water bowls . Nice atmosphere. Read more

Great food and great brunch cocktails . Really fun atmosphere too!

The best staff and the best drinks and food. Always friendly .

The food is so tasty. But if you are really starving don't go there.

Spicy Bloody Mary hits the stop for weekend (or weekday) brunch

Awesome dining atmosphere. Simply fabulous. Do try the almond crusted salmon too.

Everything
