Sana CurrimbhoyAugust 7, 2014A great cheap place to get yummy steak frites. I love the concept of no menu, with a salad to start and then a full plate of fries and steak with a special sauce, and then refills!- J LApril 15, 2016Steak frites with special sauce and a very affordable wine list. It's great to satisfy one's steak frites cravings.

Larisa GrollemondJune 28, 2015They do one thing but they do it well, I could eat these steak frites forever. Have a glass of the house red and follow it up with a meringue-heavy dessert for ultimate Frenchness.Upvoted 4 days ago
What's not to like? Basically bottomless steak frites, and they are delicious. Get some plonk red wine to go with it and it's a perfect meal.
Greg SchaentzlerFebruary 10, 2017Amazing steak frites and a bistro salad with Dijon vinaigrette. Only item, but best steak value around for $30 pp. 2 portions, great wine especially made for them, fantastic creme brûlée!
Najla AlNovember 4, 2016Was amazing. I like my meat to be well-done steak and I was scared how it's going to taste like but it was so delicious 👍🏻 just the way I wanted. I really recommend it.
Bokyung ParkFebruary 20, 2024Walk-in only. It has its unique steak sauce. After the first portion of the steak, they will put you in the second portion. There’s no butter for the bread, but they give you an olive oil if you ask.
EaterMay 5, 2015There's really only one option: a salad starter begins every meal, followed by the signature Entrecôte steak and thin-cut fries.
- AngieJune 13, 2018Been here a bunch of times, & I always love it. Nothing life changing, but the food/ambiance/service are good. It may seem basic to some, but I love their steak with the sauce. Profiteroles are BOMB!
T SAugust 19, 2018Nice place, only issue is timing, the open for lunch then they stop at 4 pm till 7 pm.
Michael G.April 7, 2018Fantastic establishment. Prix fixe steak frites and a salad to start. The mustard vinaigrette on the salad is incredible and the steak sauce is even better.- Conall AroraFebruary 17, 2017Most efficient steak frites in the city. Just write an "M" on your table and an amazing medium steak frites will arrive. If no one is looking, write "MM" and enjoy
Owen HerterichAugust 28, 2016Great French steakhouse. No menu, you only choose how you want your steak cooked and they do the rest.
Le Relais de Venise L'EntrecôteOctober 25, 2013Don't miss French Crème Brûlée with bittersweet crunchy caramel top and velvet custard perfumed with pure vanilla bean.
Gajtana SimonovskaSeptember 9, 2013Very good steak frites and salad prix fixe for $27. Their house Bordeaux is quite good (and affordable) at $11.50 for a half carafe. Feels almost like being in Paris:-)- Le Relais de Venise L'EntrecôteNovember 27, 2013New on our winter menu...our popular cheesecake is topped with golden caramel and toasted walnuts for a creamy crunchy bite of perfection!
Miguel Roberto MangligotAugust 24, 2017Amazing steak and the steak sauce makes it even better!!! Great service as well. Very kind and funny waitresses who just make your day!
MarcMarch 5, 2014Tasting Table Top10 Steak Frites: "Trimmed Entrecôte steak 'Porte Maillot' with its famous sauce " one main on the menu, this Parisian chain... Servers keep rosy sliced steak warm over little burners- Le Relais de Venise L'EntrecôteNovember 23, 2013Open throughout the holidays: Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. We are here to serve you!
Bart de HoonSeptember 8, 2015Exactly as in Paris. Excellent steak with its signature sauce.. And good creme brûlée too. Very good service
They've got just one thing on the menu and that's steak with the special sauce and fries...and it's amazing! Definitely on my fav list
Dustin LeeFebruary 10, 2018$29.95 gets you 2 rounds of steak frites and a salad. Order it rare and get it cooked perfectly. Delicious sauce, but overall, nothing memorable
Fatou BarryJune 30, 2013A family fave ... Always reminds us of home. Make sure you try the crème brûlée at least once!
Beside their steak with delicious sauce, try the Le Vacherin du Relais for dessert!
H HumadiMarch 22, 2016The meat is slightly kinda different than what i used to taste in Paris and London. It was dry a little bit. The sauce is alright. The service is perfect as always
OMAR MukhareshOctober 18, 2014The best steak & fries in NY the same French restaurant in Paris & London. A must try for sure
Paul SanwaldJanuary 17, 2015This is a fantastic place for an indulgent dinner. Green salad, steak, and frites. Just perfect.
Natalie SJanuary 27, 2013Go to this place with people who can't make up their minds and ask what everyone else is having. Salad appetizer, steak and fries. That's it. Loved it!
EAugust 26, 2015What can I say? Always leave so satisfied after eating here. Steak and frites & glass of red wine - do it.
Leslie HutchinsonNovember 18, 2014Everything above is true. Rare steak, refills on food, moderately priced vino, what's not to like!
Rocio RasconNovember 15, 2014Love it, Dont come here of you dont Like steak... Best steak and frites... Reminds me of The one in París but not quite they same
wai-ling q.April 12, 2010Go for small salad, steak with THE sauce, and fries. That is the menu for this restaurant. So no vegetarians. Bottle a wine for $21. For dessert, profiteroles. Just like the L'Entrecote in Paris!
Naif MansourMarch 13, 2013If u hungry around manhattann midtown and u want something really good ... u should come to here
Jason MesiarikAugust 2, 2012Great value - a crisp green salad with mustard vinaigrette followed by steak frites (free refills on steak & fries!!!) for just $25!
Melissa RogersAugust 6, 2015A surprisingly unpretentious and inexpensive midtown spot. Prix fixe steak frites for $28.75.
David PessahNovember 10, 2014Have a steak-cation here. Uncomplicated and delicious, everything is excellent. Order the steak ;)
Julian BrahimyJanuary 23, 2012Only have one thing on the menu. The entrecote steak and fries are topped with a secret house sauce!
Jeff BaumFebruary 28, 2019Great place to grab a quick bite when you don't want to make any decisions.- Le Relais de Venise L'EntrecôteAugust 29, 2014Sweet Labor Day Weekend dessert offer. Details on our Facebook page. Read more
Mo MoormanOctober 7, 2010The house Bordeaux is very drinkable. Brush up on yr French wine types if you plan to order anything else. Sauce on steak grows on you--quickly. Really buttery but hard to decipher. Yum.
Caitlin ClementsFebruary 10, 2013Came for a rehearsal dinner - they've got amazingly elaborate desserts!
If you are waiting for the rest of your party to arrive... order a bottle of malbec and the cheese plate as a starter!
Taher AlmuaddiMarch 9, 2018Not as good as the one in Paris & London however it is still decent and worth going if like Entrecôte, the waitresses were super kind
Chris LAugust 18, 2013Go down on your doneness; I couldn't stand anything above "blue". The salad is really cafeteria-style. Come to think of it, the whole place is.

Sae Young ChoiNovember 10, 2013Order the steak rare if you usually order medium rare. Steak refills.
Blue, rare, medium or well are your only options. My favorite place to eat steak frites.
