Love American food? Try Elaine's, a New York inspired bar, restaurant and deli that brings the essence of the city that never sleeps to the capital. In London, you can enjoy this beautifully authentic dining experience that reflects New York's rich culinary heritage and the flavours that make it so loveable. Begin your dinner with some delicious drinks, including the French Garden Spritz with gin, house mint and lime cordial, absinthe and soda, or the fizzy French 75.
The menu at Elaine’s reflected the vibrant melting pot of flavours that New York has evolved into over the years. Small bites include the Iberico ham croquettes, air dried pork and beer sticks and giant marinated olives. If you're dining with those you don't mind sharing with, try the selection of hams and cheese paired with pickles, olives, chutney and sourdough bread. The appetisers include a green split pea soup, potted chicken liver pate with a tomato and ale chutney, sweet pickles and Greenwich village crisps, and potato rosti with whipped garlic and herb cheese mayo dip.
Elaine's Reubens are all paired with half a pint of sea salt deli fries or salad, and there are three options to choose from. The salt beef is always a hit, and then there's New York inspired pastrami and grilled Mediterranean vegetables with applewood vegan cheese. The Harlem heap burger is made with a 28 day aged ground brisket burger, pastrami, sauerkraut, salad, American cheese and Harlem inspired burger sauce.
Main courses at Elaine’s consist of just a few other options that aren't on the steaks, chops and grills list, with the Brooklyn comfort of crispy duck leg, Irish gammon, cider gravy, creamed yellow split peas and hispi cabbage, and hackensack meatballs with Dutch inspired beef and pork meatballs with creamy mashed potato, marrowfat peas and veal gravy.
