Classic bistro fare, well prepared, & pleasant service. However, the music was blaring so loud, it was hard to have a conversation.

We feel very lucky to have this bistro in our neighborhood and have made it a favorite. They have a wonderful wine list with a knowledgable staff that will help you pair wines with foods.

Extensive wine list - but overpriced, particularly at the bottom end. We were disappointed that the foie gras was off - so, instead, we had two unexceptional soups.

Been coming to New York for years and have been here several times, especially when I arrived late and hungry on the nights before my meetings. Always consistently good French bistro food, perfect selection of wines to go with the menu and the ambience, great atmosphere, really caring service and a really enjoyable overall experience.

Best thing that happened to us. We walked by and decided to give it a try! The music was great, the atmosphere as well and the brunch was yummy! Their french toast, better than any place in NYC! Bravo!

All I had here was the Terrine de Foie Gras Maison, but it was one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life. My friend who is French introduced me to this place, so he should know where good French food is in NYC. The seating area is small and the music was terribly loud, but they are...
