French Restaurants in Brooklyn, NY

“We had a nice time, and the food was good. We were however told to leave as there was another reservation waiting (we were hence offered a drink at the bar which never came), and the doorman got angry at us for opening the door in the wrong way.
So would have been perfect if not for those two departure hick ups sadly.“

“A warm welcoming place offering French Creole cuisine from Reunion island. A compact menu offering very reasonably priced apps and mains, and a lot of lentil and rice. Ordered the sampler though a few items we wanted were out. Tender coconut shrimp and beef Bourguignon entrees were excellent. We were well taken care of by the staff.“

“Good place, to eat dinner, everything you want and good French wine.“

“Would highly recommend! The menu has great variety along with excellent execution. The portions are perfect for sharing and the quality of the food is well worth the price. The yellow cake with a Cappachino is the perfect way to end the meal.“

“The service at Levant on Smith was top notch. I only wish the food had been. It was fine but nothing was so tasty that I would go back for more. Even the hot water for my tea was lukewarm. Again, the servers were super and even inquired if we didn't enjoy the meal because we left so much. The food just wasn't that great.“

“The absolute best burger I have ever eaten, hands down! Excellent service and ambiance. Highly recommend!“

“La Cafette is the best!!!“

“Restaurant Yuu is where Japanese omakase meets French cuisine in the most thoughtful and refined way. This was truly a one-of-a-kind dining experience — every course felt intentional, balanced, and beautifully executed.

Chef Yuu is an artist. The precision, creativity, and harmony of flavors were on another level. What made the evening even more special was the unique collaboration with a chef from Edinbane Lodge from the Isle of Skye in Scotland — such a rare and inspired partnership that added depth and character to the experience.

We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary here, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place for such a meaningful night. The atmosphere, the storytelling through food, and the overall care put into the experience made it unforgettable.

A truly exceptional restaurant.“

“Excellent all around dining experience that did not disappoint our much awaited anticipation In a casual and inviting surroundings you are given great innovative food for 9 courses I enjoyed every course with the standouts for me being the baratta cheese. Eggplant and wagu beef.courses The service was very personable and the sake list extensive I enjoyed watching the chef so closely preparing every dish. The limited dining crowd keeps the quality and casual ambience possible. They keep the menu different each season so you can repeat the experience. My only wish is they would have a lunch or other meals with fewer courses as a secondary option so you could enjoy this food more frequently.“

“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!!“

“All the food I ordered (take out) was great, even reheated. But what made this place stand out so much for me, was the desert. I don't have a sweet tooth, and rarely order deserts, but the pear brulee cheesecake is probably one of my favorite restaurant deserts ever. So good. I need the recipe for the hazelnut crust they make, it's amazing.“

“It's my first time on a Monday at 1 pm. Surprised date from the hubs.
I am already in love with this place, the dishes were amazing. Carmen's service was exceptional. Will definitely recommend to my family and friends. Love Williamsburg .. coming from this Staten Island resident.“

“Wonderful food in a beautiful garden setting ( indoor seating also French cozy)“

“What a delightful dinner experience with food, wine and atmosphere. The host was super friendly and informative. I was pleasantly surprised with all the flavor that every dish brought. I have been meaning to come to this neighborhood sport for a while now and it did not disappoint.
We were celebrating my mother’s birthday and wanted to try a local restaurant with fine fare. We ordered the whole chicken and it was so delicious, we paired with the beet dish and charred salad special and Mac and cheese. We also had the suggested white wine pairing that went really well with our dinner.
Overall a really lovely evening with food and ambiance. Highly recommended and will def be back!“

“Best Mussels hands down !!!!!!“

“Really amazing meal with great service. We had the fillet of sole of course which was tender and perfectly prepared, not overwhelmed in butter. Starting with Sun chokes with caviar which was a very creative preparation and finishing with chocolate mousse. Our server was very attentive and knowledge about our wine. We will definitely be going back!“

“I went here with a friend on late hours, without any prior reservations. It was 80% full but we still got the table right away. Ordered the drinks, which were pretty good and looked pretty too. We ordered fries with cheese sauce, not really a fan of it. But we also ordered whipped Feta, that one was really good.
I would say the place is more for drinks. Really nice music. It was not live but still the playlist was so good! Perfect place to hang out with friends and couple drinks.“

“Oysters were so fresh and the service was good!They had a happy hour for $11 of a glass of wine and $20 of a choice of an appetizer with a glass of wine. I thought the food was a reasonable price and I would definitely come again. The atmosphere is great too, when we came it was still empty, but when it hit 6:30 there were more people.“

“We had the most wonderful 96th Birthday lunch for our mother, grandmother and great-grandmother at Mexique Cafe. The staff were amazingly accommodating and went beyond our expectations. The food was delicious and all 10 dishes arrived at the same time. It was quite a feat when all 10 dishes were different! We will definitely return before her 97th Birthday!“

“We miss the old diner but glad it’s open again for American comfort food. We had the beets and artichokes to start that were both simply done but delicious. The limone pasta was the least liked plate. Branzino with beans and steak were also tasty. Their version of Zuni cafe’s chicken was also flavorful. (I ate that chicken at least 1x/month with oysters and a Bloody Mary in SF!) Ultra thin shoestring fries were a hit. If you want bread, ask them for it plain. The toasted one was greasy with oil. Pleasant comforting winter meal. And you get $50 off for $150 on the inKind app if it’s the first time using it.“

“Amazing food. Amazing service. 10/10“

You guys did a great job today on the menu. thank you and all the best to you and your staff in 2024“

The dessert was spectacular too. I would recommend you because of the service and wait time was great. Jack is a terrific waiter.“

“The teriyaki burger is to die for!❤️ thank u😍“

“Wonderful experience!!!!!“

“Great every time. Everything is beyond menu description.“

“I went here today and had the most delightful lunch with my boyfriend. The co-owner was very welcoming and gave us many suggestions. We split a French onion soup and the duck panini. The co-owner gave us a delicious roasted pepper dip and a mustard sauce that went great with the sandwich. He also ended up giving us a Nutella crepe on the house! The food was great and the co-owner was lovely.“

“French Toast and Fries!!!“

“Very good restaurant, highly recommended! !👍👍👍“

“🙌 amazing food.Very good service“

“if youre vegetarian and worried the cauliflower cutlet wont be substantial enough as a substitute please let me ease your fears. it was HUGE and beautifully fried. also dont skip dessert. the space is a bit cramped and difficult to keep clean when busy.“

“This place is a hidden gem and a great option for anyone looking for a great date night spot with delicious seafood. It’s small and cozy, and the owner personally greeted us at the door, which immediately makes the experience feel special. Add in the fact that it’s BYOB with just a $10 uncorking fee, and it’s hard to beat. The crab and corn chowder was outstanding and one of the best soups we’ve had in a long time. The salmon and sea bass were both great dishes. Needless to say we found a new favorite spot!“

“This place is divine. The bartenders make you feel welcome immediately. When we sat down we ordered a couple appetizers and wow, huge flavor! French onion was on point, salmon tiradito was INCREDIBLE. Duck slliders are awesome with that deep only duck flavor topped with extra crunchy shallots.... Perfect balance. Salmon entree was perfectly cooked (which never happens nowadays)
I'm in no way a food critic but I've traveled all around the world. If you want to eat delicious food from several cultures under one roof, this is your hut!“

“Wonderful staff, great vibes and delicious food all in a cozy and inviting space. Check it out!“

“Croque Monsieur ,eggs,salades tout est bon et frais . Pour un Brunch sympa“

“Met the lovely clerk at the Morningside Heights farmer's market. I bought the last Kouign-amann, and the gentleman asked me to give him feedback. It was really delicious. Very crispy, and faint notes of burned sugar balanced with the crispy sweetness.“

“This cafe is a gem. We ordered the mint fruit salad and breakfast sandwich, both simple but delicious. The ingredients felt fresh and the bread was perfect, soft on the inside and just crunchy enough on the outside. The fresh orange juice with ginger was also super refreshing on a hot day. The interior is beautiful too, a true European vibe.“

“This is such an amazing place! I highly recommend the steak tartare and just about everything I’ve ever eaten here. The French apple martinis are definitely drinkable. From the friendly atmosphere to the scrumptious creme brûlée—this is a must visit restaurant.“

“We Share Everything; and this cool place was a great date spot for Tasha and I“

“We have a grate time👍👍👍“

“Very good chicken taijin!“

“Extensive Market Knowledge:** Suzan Mchugh extensive market knowledge positions her as a resourceful source for understanding global economic trends. Investors benefit from insights that go beyond the immediate investment landscape, providing a broader perspective.“

“Made a reservation for a group of 5 on a Saturday and had an amazing experience. Jackson was knowledgeable about all the drinks, made excellent recommendations, and incredibly gracious. The soft lighting combined with the overview of manhattan makes a wonderful backdrop to catching up with friends.

I highly recommend the deep cut and first love. The mezcal drinks were all well balanced, smoky and delightful.

Finally we ordered the creme brulee and it was a decadent buttery creme with a smoky but not overpowering smoky sugar topcoat.

I look forward to my next visit with anticipation“
