Rich RDecember 20, 2011Maggie is the best! Service is excellent and the food was delicious. Wife had the lobster salad I had the halibut. Also, save room for the souffle. Takes 20 minutes to prepare but well worth the wait.
Kirsten AlanaAugust 22, 2014Get one of their St. Germain cocktails. Soooo good. Also lovely, the truffle fries!
Oscar de la RentaOctober 19, 2010NYC (Eat): Authentic bistro food with a neighborhood crowd. Perfect for lunch or dinner. Louis Candela designed townhouse and secret garden a plus. Read more
James ReggioApril 1, 2017Flawless execution of classic French dishes... at Upper East Side prices. ($17 for French Onion Soup really says it all.)
JaimApril 25, 2016Mac n cheese with everything added! French toast! Note that brunch is only on Sunday's.
Adeodato Volpi NettoSeptember 26, 2010Great food! Try the carpaccio, the "BLT pasta" and the Profiterolis. But dress social, I came in casual and the hostess was not "so nice". Even tough, worth the US$100 for me & my wife.
Rachel AlbaneseJanuary 4, 2012Go! The owner Suzanne makes you feel like you've know eac other for years and the food is top notch! Great service, great everything!
What's not good but the mac'n cheese is AMAZING! Ask for Kyle he's the best server hands down!
Briana ClaraSeptember 18, 2013Chat Mac n Cheese with Lobster & Truffles. The cheese they use is incredible.
Jan BultinckJanuary 28, 2012Service with a smile, but what a rush...just finished your starter and on comes the entree! Nice ambience though!
Matthew TringaliMay 24, 2015Food is okay, but does not match the price point or pretentious atmosphere. Truffle fries are not good. Tuna burger is pretty good. Salad is very good.
Goat cheese soufflé, truffle mac and cheese, truffle fries, burger!!!
Visit the spa upstairs, amazing facials with Mandy! Then have a fantastic dinner here!
Montana TriplettMay 23, 2010Must get the French onion soup and sit on the quaint patio. Lovely neighborhood!
Julie TringaliMay 24, 2015Ambiance is stuffy. Food should be better for price. Truffle fries are way overrated. Salad was only thing good.
João NascimentoSeptember 22, 2012Nice host, bad waiters, good food, but just don't order water ($9).
