One of Manhattan's oldest restaurants, Delmonico's, is in the process of returning to the Financial District after being closed for nearly three years
But there's a dispute over who holds the rights to the Delmonico's name
The Grgurev family who operate Delmonico's Instagram account, claim new leaseholders of the location are using the Delmonico's name in bad faith
**************************************************
The future of Delmonico's, the oldest steakhouse in the country which had been in operation since 1837 until the pandemic, appears to be at stake.
The 186-year-old restaurant, set in the Financial District, also serves as the exterior shots for The Continental Hotel in the John Wick series of films and has been closed for nearly three years.
However, there's currently a dispute with two parties now claiming to have the right to reopen the restaurant set in the Financial District.
The Continental is John Wick's most iconic location: a hotel for assassins where they can drink scotch, and make eyes at other assassins while they take care of 'business' in the heart of the Financial District.

Oh I see. Will look around.
Are the Willard’s friends of yours? Or is that a restaurant?
Is this the place you mean? In Franklin, IN? I don’t see French onion soup in the menu. https://thewillard.com/menu/
DC restraunt also hotel. US Grant went there with his son when he was given command of Union forces.
If this is the right place, it looks like they make theirs with gruyere cheese instead of Swiss that I usually find in the recipes.
That’s it. Thank you for your trouble. You ever get to DC stop. In a buy a bowl of it.
“No, you are the very last person who would know about turning scallops.”
Seek competent professional psychiatric help. You’re not well.

It sounds so good, and I will if it ever get over that way!
Been. Delmonicos in New Orleans for 100 plus years on st Charles
I think LaGasse bought it
It must have been a common name for restaurants back then..............
No Hello Dolly reference?
We'll see the shows at Delmonico's
And we'll close the town in a whirl
And we won't come home until we've kissed a girl.

Understandable. They cheated the family out of a vowe.
