Come for brunch for fresh croissants, truffle eggs and lemon pancakes!
Paige COctober 18, 2023
Excellent service! The fries are addicting, so is the coffee.
S. FanDecember 29, 2013
Some of the best cocktails in the city. Patrick, the bartender, is awesome! Nice ambiance for a date. Get the raw scallop!

The beef brisket burger was average. There was nothing special about it. While the onion soup looked spectacular it was also nothing out of the ordinary. The almond croissant however was amazing!!!

Great place for a group brunch. Everything here is great.

Dine in service is great - both food and service. Bakery side, make sure they give you all your order if you are ordering more than an item or two.

The Italien sandwich is good and can be picked up from the bakery. Steak tartare and burger are also tasty.

The baked goods on the right when you first enter, I can’t seem to pass up their almond croissants! They are amazing.

Deviled eggs. They're not called "deviled eggs" on the menu, but you'll figure it out.
Amelie BMay 17, 2013
Carmellini did it again. Great food but the chocolate torte is to die for. Careful when ordering: portions are as good but a lot bigger than locanda

It's hard to screw up a rotisserie chicken salad, but it's even harder to make it truly outstanding. Order the rotisserie chicken salad.

Awesome steak frites - Béarnaise butter was sublime and came with a heap of fantastically crispy fries
S. FanDecember 29, 2013
Some of the best cocktails in the city. Patrick, the bartender, is awesone! Nice ambiance for a date. Get the raw scallop!
Paul CunninghamJuly 17, 2016
Went for breakfast. The soft eggs were excellent. So were the lemon pancakes - an almost custard-like consistency.
Premshree PillaiJune 10, 2013
Let me let you in on a little secret: some of the best bread in the city is being baked right here. Get the campagne.
eric bornemannFebruary 24, 2018
Fantastic food and love the monthly menu from a different region of France - lots of fun.

Nice brunch spot, great coffee and pastries. Good lemon ricotta pancakes... If you're into that kind of thing.

for lunch: the rotisserie chicken salad (w walnuts & yogurt). for snack: why, macarons, of course.
Angela ChungSeptember 7, 2018
Croque madame and fries were AMAZING. Pancakes, unfortunately, were kind of a let down, especially for price.
Elizabeth BursteinAugust 21, 2017
The runny eggs were good but a tiny portion. The almond croissant was delicious
Michael 🍷 ElmgreenJuly 15, 2017
Omelette with confit tomatoes and robiola cheese = beautifully presented and f*cking delicious.
Cass GrimmOctober 18, 2016
Call me cheap but $18 for pancakes seemed like a LOT of money. Were they delicious, yes, but the sticker shock kind of killed the experience for me.
EAugust 26, 2015
Amazing French pastries. Restaurant located in great area. Heard brunch is great so will try that next
Being FattyJanuary 26, 2015
Can't go wrong with some French bistro fare in the beautiful space
jiresellDecember 31, 2015
One of the classic NYC French bistros. Pasta courses and desserts especially good!
SemiDecember 3, 2016
Went there for thanksgiving dinner, food and atmosphere were fantastic.

The wifi password is croissant & the lamb sandwich is amazing
MrsCorksterSeptember 30, 2015
Stumptown coffee at their little cafe for when you don't want to queue for a cup at La Colombe next door.
Mitsuko ImamuraMarch 30, 2014
Egg Lafayette and apple tulip pastry are among faves. Their house brew coffee has very good flavour.
Tim SheaApril 16, 2018

Tuna Niçoise salad was lovely - light, flavoursome with beautifully seared tuna. Recommended.
Jason BrewMay 12, 2016

Monster breakfast portions for a "French restaurant". Faves are still the breakfast oatmeal or the granola
Elvis RodricksFebruary 2, 2014
Great french bakery section with bar stools. The birthday flavor macaroon is the way to go.

Really beautiful space. For brunch I recommend the soft scramble. It comes in a croissant bread bowl!
Maia McCannApril 17, 2013
Good lord order the crab terrine and butter lettuce and do your best to avoid the sad customers from the upper east side (or worse??) who are dressed like they're going sailing.
Oleg ZhogloApril 19, 2019
Incredible bakery basket and lemon pancakes
Joseph LegastoAugust 15, 2014

Brad ThompsonJune 13, 2021
Good drinks, omelette is a tad small for $24 with very little ham, although very tasty with the cheese.
Simple FoodieApril 1, 2018
Frisée Salad with lardons, Croque Madame, Omelette.
