Nathan KamMay 30, 2012The steak frites here is incredible. Tender, flavorful and perfectly cooked steak. I'd eat this again and again!
Tom MortonJanuary 5, 2013The fresh farfalle with sprouts and hazelnuts on the brunch menu is a superb winter dish
My go to place after a performance in met opera. Good duck breast
- Trae FFebruary 12, 2014Great dessert but menu overall not that exciting, especially at those prices.
Larisa GrollemondAugust 20, 2016Authentic French cuisine, definitely get the charcuterie and cheeses.
Micah ChilesAugust 10, 2018Elevated bar food. All dishes - especially the charcuterie were good. Still nothing that wows you
- Nathan KamMay 30, 2012Go for the charcuterie platter. Amazing spread of tasty treats. You won't be disappointed!
Isa SierraOctober 29, 2017Don’t let the appearances trick you. The food is great. The service is a little slow.
Kathryn HasenfussDecember 10, 2011Full menu at the bar, great wines and ambiance. Perfect place to grab dinner before a ballet.

Ask for mike madrigals. He's super hot and if you rub his tummy you receive three wishes from a drugged out gecko similar but not exactly like the one from the geico car commercials.
Jess SorianoMarch 9, 2012Unbelievable food. Nice casual atmosphere. Good value overall. The banania dessert is life changing.
Joey DayApril 12, 2014Saw the Croque Monsieur on the Food Network on Best Thing I Ever Ate. My wife wants to try it now.
Courtney R.April 11, 2012The atmosphere is great. Try the Homard Aioli and Black & White Boudins tasting!!
Adriana NovaDecember 18, 2012Next door at Epicere, try the merguez sandwich. Best one I've ever had.
Fábio MoonMay 18, 2012Try the pâté grand-père - coarse country pâté, foie gras, truffle juice and port.
CUNY School of Professional StudiesApril 27, 2011GRADUATION GRUB: High-end French cuisine in a unique environment. A great place to celebrate with a bottle of wine! ($25-$31)
Julien DassaultAugust 30, 2011Great french pate to go with a read wine while seating outside on the terrace.
David RodriguezDecember 30, 2011Duck, steak frites, charcuterie. Can't go wrong. Trust the somm for wine
Jeff WooNovember 15, 2010The small board of charcuterie is a good tasting of boulud quality meats. I order the pate grand mere every time I visit!
Eric GrantNovember 15, 2014Overrated. The food is mediocre and overpriced and the interior is dated and absolutely filthy (the fixtures are caked in dust and grime). It seems like this is one of Daniel's afterthoughts.
BLOUIN ARTINFOJune 15, 2010A series of wine splatters transmogrified into artworks adorn the walls here, based off a collaboration between Daniel Boulud and mixed-media artist Vik Muniz.
Charcuterie plate and Coq au Vin are classics. Leave the wine up to sommelier Michael and you'll be in good hands.
Nicole DaneggerJanuary 15, 2018Been here for Sunday brunch. Don't take the buckwheat crepe. It's just uneatable. Just don't waste your money for a wannabee french sofisticated food place. Ridiculously expensive.
Dot. HuangFebruary 15, 2020Service was good. Valentine’s Day menu was ok. Risotto was overcooked. Hamachi crude was good.
Danielle FApril 4, 2011Wonderful service, wonderful food. A glass of Saint Verman from Burgandy hits the spot.
