Ophelia TangAugust 11, 2013Pretty good French onion soup :) one of the better ones I've had in NYC. Portions are in French portion for appetizers (teeny) but well worth it. Decent prices. Cash only! Remember to bring tips :)
Susan S.August 1, 2016This place is very charming and has really great food. The mushroom and onion quiche was amazing but on the pricey side. They have a lot of sweet and savory crepe options.
E DSeptember 1, 2019Poached eggs were actually fried (Brunch option I), the Florentine was frozen spinach on untoasted muffin (Brunch option II). Sweet crepe was filled with whip cream and little Nutella.
My go-to place. Most of their specials are great. My favorite place for crepes. Onion soup is awesome. The chef and staff are also very friendly.- Michael KnudsenMay 7, 2017It is a absolute shame this place does not have 9.9!!!! The crepes are fantastic, the service is perfect and the atmosphere is adorable!
- Albert LingelbachApril 15, 2013Every meal here has been amazing. Their wine recommendations are excellent. Cash only.
Amazing entrees & welcoming, warm service. It always feels like a family gathering! Complètement amoureux
Manasa VedulaFebruary 22, 2012Stumbled upon it on accident and had some great quiche. French onion soup is excellent as well. You might have to wait a while for your food but it's worth it.
Megan TaylorMay 5, 2013Everything here is great. Get the escargot. And remember to bring cash no cc's accepted
Lin daSeptember 22, 2021Lemon and sugar crepe simply delish. But first try the escargot and foie gras
ShinaJune 28, 2014Iced coffee/lemonade/tea isn't on the menu but they'll make it for you! Try the sugar syrup with your iced coffee
Serena PhillipsNovember 27, 2011French onion soup, cafe au lait, pumpkin apple cider crepe, eggs Nordic all rocked! Cream spinach mushroom was good but salty. Cute place!
- I love the frisée salad and a ham n cheese crepe with mustard. Cash only!
Molly NeuhauserSeptember 14, 2013I definitely wouldn't go back, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone either. People say the French onion soup is the best on Long Island but there is better elsewhere. The dessert crepe was good
I agree! My favorite spot in the neighborhood. Yummy food. My friend Gaspard highly recommends the ham and cheese crepe!
Inside New YorkMarch 22, 2012Delicious buttery crepes! http://insidenewyork.com/2012/02/29/cafe-triskell-crepes-worth-the-trek/
Dasha IvashchyshynaFebruary 22, 2014This place needs to install a better exhaust! It smelled inside! Our clothes all smell now! Yuck! Service was great but they have to do something about the exhaust!
Lisa TatarianNovember 6, 2010Just when you thought buttery, garlicky escargot can't get any more indulgent...add bacon...OMG!
GaudinessNovember 26, 2014Best French onion soup Iv had in my life ❤️ also try the Crepes my fav was the banana Nutella ❤️
