- Paige CApril 30, 2015The food was fantastic. Love their prix-fix menu. Definitely order the escargot if they have it. Everything was cooked perfectly and the service was excellent! Apple tart for dessert - don't miss out!
- Simon KratzerDecember 31, 2016Quality of food, beverages and personnel is just fabulous!Upvoted Oct 23
- Simon KratzerDecember 25, 2016Great for brunch - Free coffee refill and a delicious chicken sandwich big enough for two.
- Morgan McKeeFebruary 28, 2019Surprisingly bustling spot, primarily with families. Food is still on point, comforting, great portions. Bar service pretty attentive too! Great spot if in the neighborhood.
- Brittney PotterNovember 25, 2018The food,OMG! Their jumbo lump crab omelette with cream cheese & avocado! One of the best Omelettes I’ve ever tried. Paired with their potatoes & salad. The mocha cafe is huge & delicious!
- ZenFoodsterFebruary 19, 2017Absolute fave: French Onion soup!! ;9 Choucroute is also good. Had Steak Frites w/ both Au poivre & red wine sauces on side-both great but I prefer the wine sauce. SKIP Les Halles & come here!
- Christian DickmannApril 28, 2015Start with the Onion Soup. Orange Duck as main course. Finish with Chocolate Tart (very moist, slightly salty, peanut butter ice cream). Every course is a delight.
- suadAugust 16, 2018they might have the best roasted fingerling potatoes i tried in the city! The staff is super helpful and friendly and the seating outside is lovely, while the indoor seating is good for dates.
- Leo SumulongNovember 26, 2017I've been coming here for years and they've never disappointed. The egg dishes are all great choices for brunch and the French onion soup is reliably hearty and delicious too, at any hour.
- Mike KowalczykAugust 15, 2016Delicious food. The moules "poulette" are excellent. Bring your appetite and ask for a loaf of bread to dip!
- Best flourless chocolate cake. A true French gem in UES!
- Spotted by Locals - city guides by localsSeptember 30, 2013Saddle up to the warm, glowy zinc bar and Cafe d’Alsace offers a well curated, frequently changing set of beers on tap and a surprisingly rich bottle list packed with around 100 selections. Enjoy! Read more
- Leszek DowgierSeptember 20, 2018In a city overflowing with brunch options, this may be one of the best. And you can still enjoy their great outdoor seating for a few more weeks.
- Esther HeymannOctober 13, 2014Everything we had was delicious! Ginger & Blanc d Blanc cocktail, followed by pre- theatre choices: chop salad, roast chicken breast, sauerkraut and sausage followed by fettechini with pesto sauce.
- Vittorio SpoldiJanuary 3, 2016Had the zuzulella (spelt wrong) the Jewsish dish, it was delicious and unique. Highly recommended. Waiter was great, even gave us advice on where to live in New York, super friendly.
- Haneen 💍July 16, 2019Yummy breakfast! Portions are big enough to share! The crepe soufflé was amazing!
- The Corcoran GroupApril 30, 2012A great place for a lazy Sunday brunch – go for the Omelette d’Alsace or the Frittata Provencal, or maybe the Apple Pancake or the Tarte Flambee – everything is delicious.
- Katie LarusseDecember 7, 2015Great brunch! Loved the bread basket and all the food we ordered. It's quite cozy too. They don't accept reservations, but you can leave your # and go for a walk!
- EmmaDecember 31, 2015Great place for lunch. Have the 25$ lunch set, very good deal! Steak and fries, cauliflowers and goat cheese tatin are excellent! Great cocktails as well.
- Malea GrubbOctober 6, 2015Great, reasonably priced French bistro. I love the ambiance both inside and on the outdoor patio. If you like French Onion Soup, definitely order it here!
- My favorite brunch place in the upper east side. Awesome coffee, try the Alsace omelette and the brioche French toast. Eggs Benedict are great.
- Brett FrommeSeptember 19, 2015Excellent Onion soup and the best Steak Fritte I've had in NYC. A very enjoyable Cote Du Rhone completed the French bistro atmosphere.
- Michael Fox-RabinovitzDecember 29, 2014Nice ambiance, great beer list, solid steak tartar, good tarte flambee. Duck is good, desserts are tasty. Good date place or dinner place.
- MashkaJuly 14, 2012The grilled octopus app, big portion but swimming in oil. Seafood sausage surprisingly good and exciting, served on sauerkraut. Trout, huge portion, 2 files on rice, light & good. Duck burger huge.
- First things first. Get a cappuccino. Now, you can get classic with a Croque Madame but if it was me I'd go straight for the kill with the lamb burger served medium rare. D'Alsace is French for "Win".
- Nation's Restaurant NewsOctober 25, 2013Gianni Cavicchi, beer director for Cafe d'Alsace, developed the Cider sangria for the fall with the growing popularity of cider in mind. Read more
- Julie SonJuly 31, 2012Huge list of beer and.wine. Had the cider beer not my favorite, but I'm not a beer gal. Steak frites mediun rare very good. Although 10oz looked like 6oz. Fries were fresh, crispy and good.
- Virginie LiaoFebruary 1, 2015Great place for ppl who like brunchies! Croque madam and savory crepes are recommended! I wish i could try everything on their menu!
- Stephanie RainessAugust 2, 2013Amazing croque madame!! Brings me back to the time I lived in Alsace. C'est manifique!
- YaniqueAugust 28, 2014A great french restaurant and the perfect spot for a lazy Sunday brunch or an intimate dinner date night! Best wine on the UES!!
- KristiaMarie Pastor BalatbatJuly 14, 2015The little almond pastry that comes in the complementary bread basket was bomb!!! Salmon Benedict was delicious. Loved the roasted potatoes.
- Ru LuFebruary 25, 2015The service is super friendly. The lamb... Melted off the bones. The portion is very generous. The guests are diverse too. Definitely going back.
- Great brunch! Not so good dinner. The waffles here are to die for. Dinner plates however were a bit stale and plain. Don’t recommend for dinner.
- The arugula salad is fantastic (they drench it in dressing so ask for it light if you need to). The benedicts are delish. The salmon is my favorite. Yum!!
- Judy KadishOctober 5, 2014Roast chicken stuffed with fois gras was perfect! Spaetzle done just right. Huge beer selection... They have a beer sommelier!
- Colin LeeNovember 11, 2017The baked eggs (shashuka) with the sausage were delicious. Large restaurant so easy to get seated
- Beka CMarch 27, 2015Go for weekend brunch. Prepare to wait for a table (no advance ressies) but it's worth it. Thank me later.
- purplepassportJanuary 20, 2012The bar, with its colorful bottles, is the focus of the interior. And looks are not deceiving: it offers a selection of 110+ beers, extensive and distinguished. Ask the savvy barkeep for suggestions.. Read more
- Susan AzizoMarch 2, 2013The pear and walnut crepe is great! Service was quick and friendly. Live in the neighborhood and will definitely be back. Waitress Diane was great.
- AnyaJuly 22, 2017Great for breakfast and brunch! Try their Maryland Crab omelette and enjoy their good coffee.
- Kiwi WangOctober 4, 2016Incredible charcroute and pork shanks. Really great stick to your bones dishes and very friendly bar staff.
- EMC◾️April 8, 2021Had Steak Frites. It was really good. Wish the had Béarnaise Sauce as an option. Other than that would def come back.

- Chelsea BalkanMay 23, 2021#FabuLIST loved their eggs benedict and waffles. Great spicy Bloody Mary too.
- Leo YanesJanuary 27, 2016Great food, went for restaurant week and the portions were pretty good in size and quality. Nothing special about the place.
- Jessie CatanaSeptember 18, 2015Standard French bistro fare but consistently good and always a crowd. Try the frisée aux lardons salad
- Arguably the best frittata and chocolate croissant in the city.
- Polina WeitzFebruary 6, 2022Came for lunch during restaurant week. It's a solid neighborhood spot. Food was good, and so was the service, but nothing blew me away.
