“When the opportunity presented itself, we knew CityPlace would be a great location for Ela Curry & Cocktails and Mango Mercado,” said Chef Pushkar Marathe. “This vibrant urban destination, where workplaces, residences, and culture come together, and the proximity to Brightline will expose Ela and Mango Mercado to a thriving and growing demographic.”
Ela Curry & Cocktails will offer its signature culturally rich Indian dishes, featuring street food-inspired flavors and bold regional creations, all paired with an innovative cocktail menu. Mango Mercado, a more casual sister concept, will cater to those on the go with grab-and-go items, ready-made meals, and fast-casual dishes where quality is never compromised. Popular menu items include the Turkey Club, “The Coronation,” and Marathe’s creative take on the Greek Salad.

Marathe and Dugard, who joined forces in 2019, have built a reputation for excellence. Their first collaboration, Stage Kitchen & Bar, opened in 2020 and was recently named one of USA Today’s Restaurants of 2024. Ela Curry Kitchen followed in 2022, quickly earning acclaim as Palm Beach County’s Best New Restaurant of 2022 and evolving into Ela Curry & Cocktails in an expanded space.
“West Palm Beach has become one of the most sought-after dining destinations in South Florida attracting visitors from across the county and around the world. We are proud to ensure that local flavors continue to thrive in CityPlace’s growing culinary collection and look forward to welcoming beloved regional restaurants Ela Curry & Cocktails and Mango Mercado to the neighborhood,” said Gopal Rajegowda, Executive Vice President, Related Ross.
