Restaurant Associates

Marcel is located in the iconic Breuer building on Madison Avenue, a Roman and Williams–designed space created in partnership with Sotheby’s where cuisine, art, and design converge. Led by Chef-Partner Marie-Aude Rose and Executive Chef Juan Moncalvo, the restaurant serves refined continental cuisine rooted in French tradition and inspired by Chef Rose’s homage to the Paris she knows and loves. The menu blends classical technique with modern New York sensibilities, focusing on seasonality and highlighting carefully sourced local ingredients with minimal, thoughtful enhancement.

We are developing skilled culinary craftsmen and women who want to grow in their careers and strive for excellence. Often described as the “big brother” to downtown favorite La Mercerie, Marcel also features a celebrated pâtisserie program with handcrafted viennoiserie, madeleines, tarts, and entremets. The experience unfolds in a striking, design-forward space with an open kitchen, sculptural dining room, garden terrace, museum-quality art, and a wine program drawn from Sotheby’s cellar, all supporting Marcel’s mission to be a culinary destination of excellence in New York City.
