I had the $45 three-course pre-theater dinner recently - Thursday, May 7 - and it was just wonderful! I had the pork country paté followed by chicken Cordon Bleu with mushroom sauce and a potato gratin, and then chocolate mousse for dessert. I also had a generous pour of Pinot Blanc (a little too fruity for me) followed by a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. It was also a really nice day and I was able to sit outside on their colorful front patio. The hostess and server were both very solicitous and tow
Hands down one of the best duck leg confits I’ve had. Perfectly crisp on the outside, incredibly tender inside, and full of deep, comforting flavor. You can really tell this place cooks with care and passion, nothing feels rushed or touristy. The atmosphere is cozy and genuinely French, and the whole experience felt like a little slice of France in NYC. I’ll absolutely be back.
One of the more authentic French experiences in the city. Wine selection is concise but still has depth. Selection favors white wines (likely due to the pre theater crowd). Order the escargot, it comes piping hot and is as good as it gets in the city. The steak tartar is also a favorite, it comes with a garlic bread and a plum type sauce on the plate which you will want to lick off. Indoor seating is a little cramped; we’d recommend sitting at the bar or outside if you can handle the weather.
