French Restaurants in Brooklyn, NY

“Transparently, I only came to meet a friend for one cocktail in the afternoon and she ended up being over an hour late due to an unforeseen circumstance, yet the staff was still so incredibly kind to let me sloooooowwwwly nurse my single iced tea and wait at a a cozy little table near the back until my friend arrived.
It was a quiet day there none the less without too many other diners. Whoever manages this team, does it well. Thanks for making my alone time, not feel so alone.“

“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.“

“The shrimp and lamb were delicious and tasted very warm and homemade. Don’t skip on dessert, the corn cake was very good with some of the freshest ice cream I’ve had. The service was also really good, I recommend this place for a casual dinner!“

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

“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!!“

“I had been wanting to try HOUSE for a while now, being a regular shopper at Dashi Okume. However, had been wary of fine dining experiences in Greenpoint after trying 2 so-so places that privileged novelty over flavor. Well let me tell you, HOUSE did not disappoint.

Picture this. You arrive in a quiet street in Greenpoint, with the typical warehouse-y yet clean, modern and minimalist vibe. You see the interior through giant bay windows of a dimly lit store with Japanese products and ceramics. You see people waiting inside and other patrons dining at the café. By then the store is closed, so you ring the intercom to get in. You wait to be called to the HOUSE, in the back of the store. It feels like you are at your friend's house, and your friend is a sophisticated person with a beautiful house and he cooks for you. The atmosphere is quiet but elevated. There are 10 seats. And you are hosted by 4-5 people. It feels luxurious. You may start the dinner as perfect strangers, but you certainly make friends along the experience.

And the food is incredible. Your friend is an amazing cook. From start to finish, the story is coherent, with subtle development and transitions that never miss a beat or take you somewhere uncomfortable. Flavors are predominantly Japanese forward with some international ingredients and techniques. Noting for example the Monaka filled with ricotta and corn or the french tuile on top of a burrata with berries, reminiscent of Scandinavian flavors.

The highlight of the menu for me was the noodles. With a fragrant Dashi and rich egg noodles covered in egg yolk and fish roe, the final dish on the meal is an unmistakably Japanese grand finale, with an explosion of flavors.

Fantastic experience. Thank you team.“

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

“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!“

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

“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!“

“An incredible dining experience in Brooklyn. The tasting menu feels like a theatrical performance — beautifully choreographed from start to finish. The French-Japanese fusion dishes are refined, balanced, and full of surprises. Service is attentive, the atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, and the location is very convenient by subway (but parking is nearly impossible). The duck pie is a stunning presentation, though the other dishes impressed me more in flavor. Perfect for a special occasion — they even offer a small cake if noted for a celebration. Would definitely return to try a new menu.“

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

“All’s well that ends well. Great food, knowledgeable bartenders, and good vibes. Chef’s kiss to the oxtail French dip , deviled eggs, and Ian — the coolest, vibiest, and cutest bartender that made my late night latte, which was oh so delicious. You should totally give this place a try. And if you haven’t— where have you been??!“

“There's a lot of competition in terms of delicious chicken in the neighborhood but Risbo's roast chicken is in a league of it's own. It's quite literally perfection. Sides are a bit greasy but solid vibes, service and other patrons! What a hidden gem for the neighborhood. Will be back to check out the happy hour soon!“

“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!“

“This one is a hidden gem that we found while Googling good foods nearby. We ordered the Steak & Eggs, a Nachos with Chicken. Curry Mussels, Guava Mimosa, and an Escargot. Everything was fantastic, especially the curry mussels. We'll be back soon!“

“🙌 amazing food.Very good service“

“Sure! Here’s a shorter version:

Great vibes and even better pastry.
Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere. The pain au chocolat was perfectly flaky with just the right amount of rich, sweet chocolate—not an afterthought like most places. Will be back!“

“I am transported to the south of France here and I’ve never even been there. This place is so lovely, the food is incredible. I loved every moment we were here. Don’t hesitate, just come. And bring wine. You won’t regret it! There was no wait on a Saturday night, we just walked in. I know I’ll be back.“

“Absolutely lovely place, happy hour drinks are very reasonable, great fries, amazing view of Manhattan and very, very kind staff. Loved it! Must admit I like the Westlight view and terrace more but this is cosy and calm, especially during winter.“

“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!“

“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“

“Love this bar/cafe..

The drinks & food are amazing!!!

I love a good burger but if you're looking for something a little more elevated, get the oxtail dip on baguette!!!!!!!!! Absolutely delicious. I almost stopped by today for another one.

The deviled eggs are a hit as well.

Good food, cocktails, & tunes..“

“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.“

“Very good chicken taijin!“

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

“I order a galette des rois every year for my wife’s birthday, which falls on Three Kings Day. It never disappoints, and I mean never. This year we decided to be extra generous and share with friends. Everyone raved! Yvan is always responsive and the business is professional and attentive to their customers. Five Stars for Pistache!“

“I had my birthday party at Baku last Saturday and we had a great time. The food was delicious, the music was great, the service was amazing, and the show was incredibly entertaining. Overall, Baku made my 20th birthday feel very special. You should definitely consider them to celebrate any event!“

“Perfect space for your private event“

“Спасибо большое Алику и Руфату за честность и порядочность! На дне рождение моей мамы, мы по ошибке переплатили не маленькую сумму денег. Только на следующий день мы поняли, что сделали ошибку и переплатили. Мама связалась с Руфатом и Аликом. Сумму, заплаченную по ошибке, администрация ресторана вернула сразу же. Так же хочу отметить вкусную кухню и отличный сервиз!! Спасибо большое за гостеприимство!“
