    Pretty good French onion soup :) one of the better ones I've had in NYC. Portions are in French portion for appetizers (teeny) but well worth it. Decent prices. Cash only! Remember to bring tips :)

    This place is very charming and has really great food. The mushroom and onion quiche was amazing but on the pricey side. They have a lot of sweet and savory crepe options.

    Poached eggs were actually fried (Brunch option I), the Florentine was frozen spinach on untoasted muffin (Brunch option II). Sweet crepe was filled with whip cream and little Nutella.

    My go-to place. Most of their specials are great. My favorite place for crepes. Onion soup is awesome. The chef and staff are also very friendly.

    Stumbled upon it on accident and had some great quiche. French onion soup is excellent as well. You might have to wait a while for your food but it's worth it.

    Iced coffee/lemonade/tea isn't on the menu but they'll make it for you! Try the sugar syrup with your iced coffee

    I definitely wouldn't go back, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone either. People say the French onion soup is the best on Long Island but there is better elsewhere. The dessert crepe was good
