It was quite good. Not amazing, but quite good. The escargot was undersalted (Why is that such an issue at so many French... restaurants?), but very galicky, so nice overall. The duck my friend had was slightly overdone, but he still enjoyed it and atethe whole thing gladly. I had the tuna nicoise and it was delicious. That dish can go wrong so easily, but it had a lovelycombination of elements and the perfect amount of dressing on the leafy greens. I wish the fish had been slightly less cooked,but I'm quibbling because I too cleaned my plate. We didnt have wine and the dessert menu felt a little uninspired, so weskipped it, but it was a tasty meal overall and I'm sure I'll be back at some point. The service was good too. Occassionally thestaff was a bit over-eager to clear the plates, but they were very nice about it and the water glasses were always full, which Ireally apreciated. It was a very pleasant meal and I would certainly recommend the restaurant. Read more

Seems more affordable compared to other french restaurants. Service seemed a bit slow however to be fair my friend and I are a... bit chatty. Maybe the staff felt like they shouldn't interrupt. Overall we enjoyed a decent meal. Read more

the food was pretty good, my fries of my steak frites were a bit soggy. The wait staff kept bothering and starting at us... sometimes which was weird, and because it was empty it sounded weird in there. But overall it was nice, the food is enjoyable. Read more

Nice atmosphere, very French. Brunch was ok. The food was good for the most part, but the eggs Florentine and sandwich bread... were a little rough and dry. Service was a little slow but everyone was nice. I probably won’t go back. Hope this helps! Read more

Stick with the oeufs! The complimentary bread was cold and below average. The escargot was flavorless- not even salted... properly. I sent it back which ticked off the server and started a snarky interrogation. “We sell 120 of these every day”,“tell me how they should be cooked” etc. Quite ruined the mood after a stellar morning at The Met. My son had the eggsBenedict and he OK’d them. Noticed a neighbor devour a large omelette with satisfaction. So eggs are likely worth it. Read more

Great service but food was pricey and average in flavor. I really want to give them more stars but sadly I can make some of the... menu items better at home for 1/4 the price. Read more

Truly excellent meal. Great contemporary takes on French classics. I highly recommend the Gratin Dauphinois, a true classic.... Their Mousse au Chocolat is a bit thicker than most, but is a respectable take. As a person averse to mushrooms, the menu was abit tricky to navigate, but beyond that and a lack of a cocktail menu, I have no complaints. Great French food. Read more

Accidentally stumbled upon this restaurant to meet an old friend from college. We enjoyed the setting outdoors which allowed us... to chat, giggle and be silly over French styled horderves, wine and dinner. Jamal provided excellent service and we look forwardto visiting again. Read more
