French Restaurants near Bayonne, NJ

“My husband and I are total foodies and love supporting small businesses, and this place was recommended to us by a friend. We were in the mood for something that felt like a dinner date without heading too far from home, and Adour totally hit the mark. Let me tell you, for the affordable prices, the quality of the food blew us away. The ambiance was exactly what we were looking for cozy, elevated, and with great vibes all around. We kept it classic with a rosé and a Hugo Spritz (both so refreshing), for starters we got the mussels in tomato sauce, and for dinner we ordered the lamb chops and the Adour burger with truffle fries - absolutely to die for. We ended the night with their apple crumble dessert, and it was the perfect finish. 😍 Bonus: they serve brunch, too! No need to trek to JC or Hoboken for that cute, trendy, affordable brunch spot, it’s right here in the neighborhood. Tell George I sent you! 😏“

“Classy place, very friendly staff, starting with the nice hostess. Got a booth in the back. Ordered black label and regular burgers, bone marrow, French onion soup. Had a great server who told us fries were cooked with refined peanut oil since a guest had a peanut allergy. Refilled waters and drinks and checked on us a few times. Oysters are amazing, not a single bad one and no grit either, so shout out to the shuckers. One of my favorite places in the city, can’t wait to go back.“

“Blown away by interior design, topped with finger-licking food, friendly service, and such a well crafted drinks!“

“Had to swing by the new Boucherie and see what this new addition was bringing to the Chicago scene. My visit on a Sunday at 7:30pm was way different than my visit on a Thursday night at 8:30pm. Sunday was calm, spacious with a very moderate noise level but Thursday night was oddly the complete opposite - it was loud, busy and had much less space! 😂 I’d definitely say be cognizant of that when you go; the vibes can vary. The drinks were good - my favorite was “La vie en rose” and the French martini was tasty as well. Loved the escargots and the garlic butter sauce they were drowned in! I also had the saumon roti and that choron sauce on top was delish! I wasn’t a fan of the Paris-Brest for dessert, but the crème brûlée was good! The interior is so beautiful! 😍 Stop by for a visit and see how you like this new Chicago restaurant! Ask for Manuel to be your waiter - he was the best!!!“

“Friendly staff, we were not rushed and were made to feel welcome. A perfect spot to pass an hour in a soggy day! (Though skip the Apple tart for dessert - super soggy)“

“Great late lunch on a nice spring day. Moules Frites were excellent“

“Food and service spectacular. Beautiful room.“

“Accueil est cordial, le personnel professionnel , la nourriture est très bonne. Un petit coin de Provence à New York. Ambiance sympa 👍🏻“

“Very chic city atmosphere with a beautiful bar & dining area indoors. The food and service was outstanding.“

“My friend and I went for Restaurant Week/celebrated her birthday and the service was impeccable, the complementary amuse bouche was delicious and the food was fantastic. Our steaks were cooked to perfection and my creme brulee was one of the best I've had in as long as I can remember. The drinks were delicious as well! I will be returning, I'm sure!“

“A very fancy and romantic restaurant.“

“Le Jardinier is not a restaurant, it's an experience of pure delight both in fabled ambiance and culinary expressions of delectable and exquisite taste. The menu will invite your palate with an array of fares which deceptive simplicity becomes magical by way of the distinctive genius of the chef and the kitchen. The staff is attentive, knowledgable and caring. These are not women and men that cater to your needs but people that enlighten the experience and present the wonders of the food with passion and elegance. Price-quality ratio is a bargain. Whether for gluten-free accommodations or fresh farm-to-table savory artistry Le Jardinier excels and exceeds! Among the best in NYC! Paris, Vegas, Milan, London and Tokyo have places that are enticing and fabulous, but hardly more accomplished nor comparable to the exquisite divine masterworks of Le Jardinier - which brings the joy of dining to the table with gusto, and where joie de vivre elevates the taste buds to a heightened sense of appreciation for the art of culinary wisdom and the wonders of titillating the taste buds to the brink of ecstasy. A must and a dining experience that encapsulates the best NYC delivers. Thank you!“

“As return customers, each visit continues to exceed our expectations. From the moment you walk in, the service is nothing short of impeccable: warm, personable, and genuine.

We have enjoyed almost every dish on the menu over multiple visits, and not a single bite has ever fallen short of phenomenal. This most recent experience was no exception with memorable standouts including the Madai and Zebra Tomato starters, and Black Bass main. We always find a fantastic bottle of wine from their extensive wine list and their sommelier staff is highly knowledgeable.

It’s not just a meal here—it’s a culinary experience we look forward to every single time. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!“

“My steak was delicious. It’s a great late night place with a cool vibe.“

“This restaurant blew me away, which I was not expecting. Everything about it was magnificent. Plus top end food and service without any stuffiness. Plus they had a wonderful restaurant week menu on top of a legitimate strawberry shortcake. Will definitely go again and take friends. What a place!“

“LeBernardin is the kind of dining experience you'd dress up for, book in advance, and immerse yourself in for hours. If you're looking for a taste of New York City dining elegance or a memorable evening, this is the place to be. While the prices aren't cheap, the sophistication and rhythmic atmosphere here are truly a treasure to be cherished.“

“Phenomenal French food, one of the best meals I have ever had. Truly a hidden gem.“

“Great!“

“New York is one of the world's great cities, a global center for media, entertainment, arts, fashion, research, finance and trade. This busy, modern city is the fourth largest metropolitan area in the world and the most populous city in the United States.“

“Blown away by interior design, topped with finger-licking food, friendly service, and such a well crafted drinks!“

“I recently checked your restaurant’s website on Google, and I noticed it doesn’t look very professional. My name is Muhammad Zain Raza, and I’m a website developer. I would love to create a fully professional, responsive, and animated website for your restaurant, packed with many modern features to make it stand out. The best part is, I can do this for you at a very affordable rate without compromising on quality.“

“We had a wonderful brunch at Lafayette. This is one of my favorite brunch spots in the city. Our server was wonderful and attentive! The vibe and the ambiance are so chic! 10/10“

“Great food. Great atmosphere. The food is great, especially the French onion soup. Definitely a go-to spot for me and my wife when visiting NYC.“

“Great French place. Tough to get in. Go early.“

“The food was amazing. I highly recommend the Croque Madame. Lena was a spectacular server, we could not have asked for better.“

“Loulou is a leader in supporting the courageous medical staff tasked against covid across NYC! Today, they are delivering 40 meals to ICU doctors. Amazing, selfless work - pouring all of their resources into those who are keeping our city alive. Please consider supporting loulou so that they can continue feeding NYC‘s heroes! Food, drinks - much needed pick-me-ups - right to your door! We love you Loulou! 💗“

“One of my favorite place to go in the city ! Very friendly people and food 🥘 is always great 😊“

“This place is a great restaurant. The atmosphere really reflects a parisian Bistro. The food is very good. I gave a neutral stars rating for the service, not because it was bad, but because the waiters were very busy so they were kinda in a hurry to take our order and it took them a while to check on us to see if we needed anything else, on and off the menu. Anyways, I really recommend to have lunch or dinner there, preferably not at the peak hours and you'll probably a 5 star experience“

“Great food, great staff, great restaurant“

“The food is amazing and the ambiance is just what I love about this city must visit!!! 🤩“

“Amazing French restaurant! Fantastic service, cocktails, and wines.“

“Cool place and enjoy the food, drink , enironment.“

“Dining at Le Rivage has become a family tradition. My MIL would eat there when she lived in NYC decades ago. She returned with her son (my husband) when he was young. Now, in 2025, we took our boys there on their first visit to NYC. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The food is always wonderful. Highly recommended.“

“Everything is delicious! The grilled cheese was our favorite!“

“We fancied a light brunch on our way up to the Broadway theatre for a matinee show of The Buena Vista Social Club and as we had enjoyed our brunch at the Tartinery café & bar in Greenwich Village last week, we decided to try their branch on Park Ave.
The café was very busy with a lot of office workers having lunch, however, we were shown to a small table for two without having to wait. The menu at this branch was very silmilar to the one at Greenwich Village, however, they didn't have the eggs benedict my wife really enjoyed there, so she had the avocado on toast with the additional of a soft poached eggs today, which she really enjoyed, and a latte. I went for the lunch combo deal of a delicious creamy chestnut & mushroom soup with a fantastic chicken salad petite tartine with celery & pistachio. We also ordered a very tasty ham & cheese croissant to share whilst we waited for our main courses.
We were served by a very friendly and helpful waitress and used the male & female toilets at the back of the café. There's also a takeaway counter near the entrance selling pastries & hot drinks to go.“

“Overall fantastic food, but a couple of the dishes were over salted (leeks and chittara especially)

Will be back for the chicken liver parfait and the duck and the wine. Great service. Most of the wine on the list is natural which I don’t normally like (I prefer tradition/ classically made wine) and our server helped us find something we would enjoy. We had a delicious Provençal red.“

“Favorite restaurant, delicious food, sublime wine, amazing chefs Robbie & Sam , friendly and welcoming owners, Clement & Simone go above and beyond to make your experience of their gem of a restaurant simply the best! Love this treasure in our neighborhood, make your reservation and try as much as you can on the menu, every mouthful is just wonderful!!“

“Amazing food and ambiance.“

“It was a wonderful experience our waiter and everyone was just fantastic and the food was amazing!!“

“Great place, delicious food, attentive staff …“

“Eulalie is one of those places I want to keep a secret, but can’t. It’s a special experience.

The menu is hand written in exquisite cursive by Tina, and features a note to take a break from your phone while dining. It’s where I get to wear the dresses sleeping in my closet, the ones I can’t wear anywhere else… because dressing up is encouraged, recognized, appreciated, and healthily complimented.

The food is as exquisite as the setting and the service. Meticulously crafted, seasonal, Chip always has a special or two up his sleeve. Last night it was a pork trotter with pepper vinegar, a souffle served with beets, and a tilefish. But the duck three ways will always be a star in my eyes.

We sealed the meal with the cheese plate full of local selections… who knew Queens made a washed rind like that?

And for the price point ($125 for 4 courses) there is no better deal out there.

We come here for special occasions, because there is no place as special as Eulalie. (No photos of course, because I was actually present for my meal.)“

“Brought my daughter in this evening to celebrate her successful application for a student visa to France. Could not have been more pleased with the service provided by Patrick and everyone else. (You know you’re in the right place when an off the cuff Monty Python joke lands perfectly and a reference to your Clash t-shirt is made in appreciation). The food and drinks were top-notch. Thank you all for making our special day and first visit to NYC so amazing!“

“It was my first time eating at Margot and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Excellent service, great atmosphere, and above all, delicious food! If I had to recommend one dish, I’d go with the Homage to Zuni chicken, but honestly, whatever you order will be a great choice!“

“OMG!! The bartender Wahid was so amazing all of my drinks was perfect he made them to perfection, him and Diogo made a great team making sure if I’m comfortable and needed anything else I will surely be be back here again to experience both of them“

“One of NYC’s best kept little secrets right smack dab in your face. Excellent service. Sit at the bar if you can’t get a reservation. It’s with it. The bartenders cater to your every request. Tenured mixologists will deliver exactly whatever you crave. The food is not five star, but it’s good. The atmosphere carries the old Manhattan charm. Great to visit pre and post Radio City Music Hall show.“

“This is our second visit to Bacchus and they did not disappoint, having not wanted to cook today Christmas Day we decided to dine at Bacchus. Everything was exceptional from the appetizers to the main course and dessert and the service I could not find fault. You guys did a great job today on the menu. thank you and all the best to you and your staff in 2024“

“Jean-Georges strikes me as a classic, established, high-end restaurant. Located right by Central Park, it offers stunning views and a perfectly elegant atmosphere without being too formal. The cuisine is a French-American fusion, with delicate flavors. Some of the dishes, like the foie gras and desserts, were truly stunning. The waiters were professional and attentive to every detail, and the overall dining experience was quite enjoyable. However, I found some of the dishes a bit conservative and perhaps not particularly memorable, and the prices are quite high. Overall, it's a restaurant where you won't disappoint, but the level of surprise depends on personal taste. It's a good choice for important occasions.“

“Felt as though I was in Paris“

“Fantastic staff!! Best time celebrating my son’s birthday there tonight!“

“Great foods great staff. Bravo“
