Javier MunozMarch 2, 2015Little, cozy, chic and with a menu so good that you would like to try it all. I went for brunch and had French toasts. I would come back just for them. Delish:)
Erika PontesSeptember 24, 2014Cod fritters, branzino and beef cheek we're delicious! But if ordering a la carte one starter and one main is more than enough even though they recommend 3-4 dishes.
Susan J CampbellJanuary 16, 2016Wait staff is really nice and excellent at arranging wine pairings. Seared fois gras, rabbit pot pie, tuna, and s'mores all fabulous. Great place.
Penn AppetitMay 30, 2012Good for a splurge. Get bone marrow toast, duck breast with spring bean cassoulet, and Christina Lee's take on the s'more—graham cracker ice cream, toasted marshmallow, peppery "hot" chocolate ganache
Amanda BromwichJune 11, 2012Awesome spot for brunch! Start with the Bloody Mary (with fried pork belly and rock shrimp) or the individual French press coffe and end with their very yummy spin on… (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Emily HeywardAugust 9, 2014Incredibly delicious small plates place. Can't go wrong with the 5 course tasting menu! They will adjust to your tastes or just surprise you.
Halstead PropertyNovember 15, 2012A Parisian inspired Thanksgiving meal is on the menu including pumpkin espuma with bay scallops, pear, roasted sablefish with chicken dumplings & turkey roulade with chestnut and cranberries.
refinery29August 3, 2014Go to Recette for the "Smores" (Graham Cracker ice cream with toasted marshmallow and chocolate ganache) and the other tasty dishes on its smart menu. Read more
Valerie BrownJuly 1, 2012The PB&J French toast must be tried but great for sharing at the table, otherwise it will put you in a coma. Everyone talks about the smores dessert but we didn't make it that far.
HOBNOB MagazineJuly 1, 2012Quintessential West Village spot. The spicy sweetbreads satisfy, as does the scallops and lobster risotto. The special Caipirinha made with apple/beet juice and fresh ginger, fantastic.
BenFebruary 21, 2015Well plated dishes, open kitchen, small portions - cooked just right. Share some plates and get a bottle of wine from their surprisingly well stocked selection.
RisaSeptember 21, 2012Grub Street off-menu dish: Foie-and-Langoustine Wellington. "Instead of beef Wellington, the staff swaps in langoustine & fatty goose liver into a tiny puff pastry shell w a Japanese red curry sauce."
Mark HrywnaAugust 11, 2013S'mores on the dessert menu = best $8 you will ever spend. The spaghetti special w truffles was super too. But get the S'mores. Make love to them.
Branzino BandiniJune 13, 2012PB&J pain perdu. The chef's pillowy treat features a three-inch-thick wedge of Sullivan Street brioche stuffed with a swirl of creamy peanut butter and grape jam. $12.
Tara RoffersDecember 22, 2010stellar service with plates to match, cod fritters & pulled pork are a must to start, your challenge is deciding on mains: sweetbreads (yum!), pork belly, venison & duck breast - all good, what a gem!
Tarik HartJanuary 5, 2015Quintessential spot in the West Village for a date...and Jesse's menu never let's you down.
Irina PerfectMarch 4, 2012Get pre fixe menu and make sure you get different dishes. That way you can share and experience every bite. Get all extras on the menu. Caviar is good quality, but too expensive for small amount.
The Wall Street JournalAugust 16, 2010From the short, but diverse, brunch menu, try the dish of perfectly cooked sunny-side-up eggs with a tangy green salad, potatoes cooked in duck fat and three strips of bacon. Read more
Bullfrog & BaumJanuary 25, 2011One of Sifton's favorites of 2010 this small spot had a huge year. Jesse Schenker's is menu is always changing but some staples are the Salt Cod Fritters and the Berkshire Pork Belly.- HOBNOB MagazineFebruary 21, 2011inventive combinations, quintessential w vill spot, Leblon Fresca cocktail: Apple Juice, Beet Juice, Fresh Ginger. see photos:
Jenn AndrewsJuly 24, 2013This one's easy. Get the cauliflower raviolo. You'll get a taste of pasta, mushrooms, veggies, and seafood in one bite!
Amber VittoriaApril 13, 2015Incredible for dinner. Amazing drinks, and the Hamachi was the best of our plates.
Tian XieOctober 24, 2015The bone marrow toast was not what I thought, but combined with roe it was beyond my imagination.
Kate HuyettMay 15, 2011For brunch menu, scallop salad and the sweet pea soup with foie gras is amazing. For wine, there's a $60 Chardonnay that's great
Charlie305 SouthBeachHookUpApril 9, 2010Amazing food wonderful ambiance. Try the halibut, branzino and cheeses. Ask for jess to be your waitress. She's great. NYT write up last week. Stroll through the village to walk off the calories
The chorizo and grits is my go-to brunch in the West Village.
Georges DuvergerJuly 10, 2012Get there (i.e. book) after 9:30pm when the restaurant gets less crowded, otherwise it can be noisy. Great service!
Sarah ReynoldsOctober 5, 2011For your entree, don't miss out on the Duck Breast! If you are hungry definitely go for the tasting menu!!
Mike ChauSeptember 16, 2012Try the Pb&J "Pain Perdue" - This just easily made my list of best things I've ever eaten.
Scallops are mind blowing. S'mores are a no- brainer. My favorite place to eat in NYC.
david levyJanuary 28, 2012One of the best tasting menus in NYC. Or, well, anywhere. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Nicole BJanuary 14, 2011Definitely go for the pork belly & s'mores dessert. If you want. Lighter starter, the arugula salad is killer.
The New York TimesMarch 31, 2010Looks casual. It isn't: those small plates taste big. You'll wantcharcuterie, cod fritters, pork belly, wine. S'mores to finish, ofcourse. Read more
jared zlotnickSeptember 17, 2010I recommend the Salt Cod Fritters, Chilled Corn Soup, Lobster Risotto, and don't leave without the Smores!
