Gina BucknerMarch 18, 2016Some of the best food I have ever had in my life, amazing. Roast chicken, sole meunière, Caesar salad, fries, roasted vegetables, crepe Suzette, apple tart, the list goes on. It's pricy but worth it.
Minza ZahidOctober 19, 2013Quintessential french experience in the city. Sit at the bar, read a book and order some crepes and latte. The staff is diverse and friendly, so strike up a conversation if they are not too busy.
Susan WallachNovember 11, 2013This was an incredible burger. Get it with the Roquefort. And the fries... yum! Just, so good! This may be my new favorite place.
BreannaFebruary 16, 2013Great wait staff, food (croissants!!!!), and ambiance. They can accommodate large groups. Also, brunch is $19 and includes a mimosa, Bloody Mary's, or OJ.
Jaime Carr HammJune 4, 2013Tuna de thon is incredible and be sure to ask for the pâté instead of the butter when they bring around the fresh baked rolls!
Andy ChapmanMay 10, 2016Burgers and croques are good and have some rosé as you sit outside for god's sake.
amNewYorkJuly 1, 2013This part of the UWS wouldn’t be the same if it didn’t offer a spot where locals and visitors alike could dine on French cuisine
awesome brunch menu. fromage et jambon crepe and eggs benny are excellent choices. dinner is great as well.
The croque monsieur and the ham & cheese crepe are great for lunch.
Jacqueline LombardOctober 31, 2012Any place that brings you free pate with your bread is awesome in my book!
LuluApril 19, 2014Amazing french onion soup but the frisée salad was tres horrible - tiny portion of wilted/not fresh greens - avoid!!!

Love this place. Great service and food. Seared tuna is delicious. Bread pudding is ridiculous!
IsabelleMay 23, 2010I recommend the moules provencales. They were absolutely delicious. And remember to keep some of your croissant for dipping in the broth!
Davvi ChrzastekMay 20, 2013The ham & cheese omelette was so-so, but the crème brûlée made up for it.
LisetteMay 23, 2015Food is good enough but the service is very distracted. Completely forgot about our table several times.
CiaJanuary 10, 2010All items on authentic French bistro menu are excellent. Try the tuna loin japonaise
Vanessa CasillasDecember 6, 2013Sí te gusta la música suave y disfrutar de un buen rato en unos sofás súper cómodos mientras cenas no dudes en venir. Sirven cenas hasta las 22:15 más o menos!
