Everything is good here. I have been coming here for years...never disappointed. From the hostess, to the waitress all the way to the debonair bartender, the service is amazing. Come one, come all.
Get the cheese plate and the babaganoush ask for extra bread. Don't bother with the sangria get a bottle of wine instead. The one table outside is the best in summer for ppl watching. Superb staff
The Corcoran GroupDecember 3, 2011We couldn’t resist the glamorous older woman outside enticing us to come in. Get the Steak Au Poivre dinner special for $18, come with salad and a glass of wine. Service is brusque.
- Laura WestcottFebruary 2, 2013Steak, salad, fries and wine only €18. Amazing value and taste. The Pinot Noire is delicious and Louisa is a really nice waitress. 10/10
Shannon McCookMay 6, 2012Lovely romantic, low key atmosphere, fantastic staff. Sangria is good. Waiter poured our whole table 2 rounds free drinks in honor of our birthday boy. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Darius De La CruzJuly 23, 2011Really sweet and small intimate place. Loved the food and the staff was really nice. There's a real cute waitress that doesn't speak or understand much English but she's too cute to complain lol
Harumi UApril 17, 2016$15 carafe for selected wine (sangria is an option) and $19/person 10 appetizer selection is a nice dinner. Note 20% tip on bill automatically
Restaurant.com brings us here every time we come to NYC - and we never regret it!
- Laura WestcottJanuary 3, 2013I can't believe how amazing the steak was for €18. And a glass of wine was thrown in. Great find, go there!
Aubrey VanGorderJuly 28, 2012Be nice and maybe the cute bartender will give you a bottle on the house and tell you to finish it
Lee KentJanuary 13, 2013A $15 carafe of wine in NY. Unheard of. Very good food for the price point and loved the service
Had a ultra great steak frites. Owner Alain is too hot. Happy hour 5 happy hour at the bar all night long.
Su ParkDecember 26, 2015Strong martinis and a great deal for carafes of wine. As far as food goes - we had the chef's small plates tasting (10 dishes) and calamari. Everything was pretty bland and very average.
Sit at the bar. Hassan is such a good bartender and a real sweetheart. Cool glasses too.
The gentleman host is just as good accepting my pastdue coupon for $25 off.. great mussel pots and service and rockin music.
Julian WApril 6, 2014Reasonable price, very attentive and friendly waitstaff. I was impressed with the moules-frites!
Lunch special of $10 for choice of pasta or burger with glass of wine = nice!
Shashi RicksonFebruary 29, 2012$17 for mussels, fries, bread, and a glass of wine. Wonderfully satisfying deal!
- Very friendly staff super tues for mussels w fries. And 1 glass wine for $ 17
Patrick DamonSeptember 11, 2011The mayor of La Carafe gets 15 dollars all you can drink! Time to get my drink on!
Katie KearseyJuly 26, 2011The wine selection is great, and the French bartender is awesome. Read more
CarolDecember 12, 2013Empty restaurant ordered soup and dinner , waited over 20 minutes still hadn't received soup , or even bread, we said what happened to soup, waitress said she didn't know it's French. We left hungry
ChrisNovember 7, 2011Food is not bad but the owner will try to replace the wine you picked by a cheaper one and then insult you in French, stay away from it
