This was my first Michelin experience in the city and it did not disappoint. The food and drinks were to die for. The service was impeccable, everyone was very friendly. We sat in the bar/lounge esque area next to the window, it was super cozy, the interior is gorgeous too! 10/10!

Ate here for the second time with my parents, sister, cousins, aunt and uncle of where one of my cousins used to extern there last summer and to celebrate his graduation in CIA. We all got different dishes to try and eat together as a family. The food we got was really good and delicious that it was worth the wait and we seemed to wait extremely patiently to get served correctly without any errors. The service there was also attentive, understanding and friendly. We couldn't agree more and had an amazing time. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :)

For my husband's birthday, I chose Pavillon, and it was an exceptional experience. Not only was the food fantastic, but the staff were also remarkable. They were warm, professional, and attentive. Elyes, in particular, took excellent care of us, displaying both gentleness and professionalism. It truly was an outstanding dining experience, and I highly recommend it!

One of the best restaurants I have tried. Everything was awesome, and the best part was the dessert (Noix de Coco - Carotte). Definitely 100/10.

The food is incredible! Our server Alekx brought the experience to another level. We even got to see the kitchen! We’ve had the 6-course Tasting menu with wine paring. Every single wine elevated the flavors of the amazing dishes and it was definitely worth it! Thank you to the whole Le Pavilion team. You made our Wedding anniversary so special!

First the space is so beautiful and the service was amazing. The drinks were good, but the food fell a little flat compared to what I ate in New York this weekend. The butter was good but the bread was meh. I had the spaghetti for my appetizer which I don't recommend. It was room temperature and not great tasting. After reading other reviews I should have gotten the oysters. For the main, I got the lobster. The pea purée was the best thing on the plate. I really missed with dessert choice. The "crepe Suzette" was more like a carrot raviolo. Wierd.

Enjoy the best service and food in New York.Each person chooses 3 items from the $165 course.It may not seem like much, but it's a lot of food, so it's more than enough.Overall, the seafood was more delicious than the meat.In particular, the desserts are top-notch and made by a Japanese pastry chef, so the quality is extremely high.The atmosphere is great and the customer base is gorgeous, so I recommend coming in formal attire! !

Had been wanting to try Le Pavillon on one of my NYC visits and it did not disappoint. A beautiful restaurant that i saw when it was originally under construction. Comfortable, intimate yet very open using the large volume of space very well. A beautiful environment. Service was polished, helpful and very efficient but never over bearing. I enjoyed the octopus 1st course and Monkfish main. Outstanding and beautifully presented. A solid but pricey wine list but found an '04 Rioja that was drinking beautifully and didn't break the bank. A terrific experience worth the hefty price tag for important occasions or business meetings.

Despite a few service hiccups, a great experience and divine food. Big Daniel Boulud fan. Pre-fixe for 2, plus 4 cocktails ended up pretty close to what we spend at most high end spots around the city. She thoroughly enjoyed it, especially getting the perfect photo in the creative space. Octopus, foie gras apps beautifully presented. And then lamb and Arctic char (my favorite fish). One Michelin star worthy. Asked for a cappuccino (do you want it served with your dessert or before? With..) and never got it. Had to remind them after they had already taken away the dishes from our beautiful desserts. No one came by until then. I had sparkling and she had tap water, but they kept coming by and topping off her glass with sparkling. Had to have it replaced twice. Simple mistakes that don't happen at mediocre places normally, not to mention one as polished as this.

I’ve been here 4 times since they opened. To be honest, I don’t really like the foods here because they don’t taste that good (for me).But the look of the foods are awesome. The service are sometimes okay sometimes are not.The reason I keep coming back here because the atmosphere. I really love the atmosphere here and even though the foods are not that tasty for me but they’re not bad.

The food was not up to the standard I expected. The arctic char coulibiac was undercooked, which resulted in the dough being hard to digest. The rhubarb dessert was a complete miss.*** UPDATE: I contacted Mr. Fitzgerald as he requested in his response below. I never heard back from him.

This place was absolutely beautiful. The food was delicious. I was expecting tiny portions and was shocked when the portions were substantial. The Foie Gras was incredible- best I've had. The perfect dinner to celebrate my birthday.
