Wow! Just wow, wow, wow... !!! Thank you to the head chef because this was a gem of a find.
My co-worker was staying in the hotel and we popped in to grab something lite to eat after a work team event, fully expecting the usual bar fare (we went into the area just off the lobby, not the larger area where the live music is). When the food came out we were so pleasantly surprised, and over the moon once we started eating. There were 4 of us, we ordered 4 small plates. The wrapped chicken came on a nice wood paddle and there were 5 perfect wraps. We expected tiny bar size bites, but these were bigger. It took 4-5 bites to eat one, just to give you an idea of size. SO GOOD!! We also ordered the poké, which came with a beautiful puffy rice "sheet". The tuna was fresh and delicious and plenty for 4 people. Next was the Truffle Potato Fripps - nicely seasoned, very nicely sliced, like an au gratin. You were biting into an actual piece of potato, not something thin like a chip. Several slices on the plate and plenty for 4 people. Lastly was the Corn Ribs - holy cow... !!!! Mexican style elote street corn - grilled and charred to perfection, but instead of the entire cob being served, it was quartered, which gave it the "rib" look. The corn was not over or under cooked. It was perfection, cooked yet still had a crisp to it. WOW were they good, and the presentation was clever. Anytime I'm in the area and want something lite yet flavorful, I won't hesitate to stop in again. In fact, I work a few blocks away and wouldn't hesitate to stop in and have dinner for one. I want to try the main/large plates now!!

Visiting New York for business and staying at Hilton. The drinks and food at Chelsea table and stage is amazing. The bartender is awesome. We ended up coming back to the bar 3 nights in a row to drink and/or drink. So convenient and so yummy! I think even if I don’t stay at the hotel, I will visit the bar 😊
Experienced the new Chelsea Table & Stage today for their first musical Sunday brunch. Their Bloody Mary was really tasty (with tequila and mezcal) and hit the spot! Followed it with their Strawberry Letter 23 which coupled fresh strawberry purée and Prosecco — refreshing. Our table gave rave reviews for the food and coffee, but it was even better paired with the great performance (we saw Funk Shui NYC, a 13-piece band!). Look forward to going back for brunch in the future or one of the many shows they have on their calendar.
