Gilt CityJanuary 12, 2012Left Bank’s American cuisine offers new takes on traditional bistro fare, with hearty entrees like braised beef short ribs with fresh polenta and a homemade “capriccio” with whole-roasted kid goat.
Ellie RountreeAugust 14, 2012Gorgeous, delicious eats purchased from the farmers market that morning (so says the waiter). The service and food were both outstanding. If they have the scallops with corn, make sure to get it!!
LTDecember 5, 2014Food is absolutely great, though portions are small-ish & prices steeper than avg (ex. $14 for a salad of just greens). Ravioli is delicious & cauliflower side is a must. Cozy, low noise, great staff.
Missy MackeyNovember 22, 2021Small menu but very underrated! My boyfriend loves the steak sandwich, the pasta is also good!
- Robert Tolar HainingJune 14, 2017Great "new american" restaurant. The fish was great! The "maple syrup pie" was good – sort of like a denser chess pie.
Alejandra VargasJune 5, 2015Perfect to have some good food or drinks outside in a beautiful day. French terrace style!
Cynthia LinFebruary 1, 2019Our go to burger place, coming from Hoboken! Sweet potato fries are so good too
Damian BayonaMarch 5, 2015Candle lit and cozy. Good for a date or a reunion with friends. get the steak medium rare.
Katie NittiJune 8, 2015Menu constantly changing, everything excellent. Private room downstairs fantastic for parties.
JennOctober 7, 2011What a great place. Lamb Tartare - to die for! Great wine by the glass selection. Everyone is friendly and the space feels homey.
AskMenNovember 9, 2011Turning out an eclectic mix of seasonal grub, including a dish made with Red Cockerel, “the chickeniest chicken you've ever tasted,” according to the chef.- Left BankSeptember 26, 2013Check out the menu frequently:
Ash LJune 14, 2013Try the iron roasted chicken, the homemade Mongolian dumplings and the asparagus salad--all amazing!
Monica CullenJuly 15, 2015Chicken liver pâté followed by the seared scallops. Tiramisu to end the evening.
Janine QuatrevingtNovember 26, 2014Save room for the maple syrup pie thing. Looks ordinary, tastes amazing.
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2011We recommend the beans, pecorino & olive oil side dish -- affordable and delicious.
Maximum BurgerJuly 23, 2017Great location, interior and service. But tomato soup was bland and watery, and chopped grilled cheese was way heavy on the bleu cheese
Bailey McCannJune 30, 2013The burger is the size of a slider. So you certainly won't feel bad about eating the whole thing. ($10 no sides)
Dan BoujoulianJuly 23, 2011if you're gonna call yourself Left Bank at least know something about New York history and go with Left Banke jeez

"Great quality cocktails! One of better mixologist locations in NYC, cozy and warm location, but gets crowded quickly. Recommend the Mata Hari and the Sleeping Car."
