“It’s my favorite restaurant of all time. The service is amazing, every time I’m there I’m threaded like a queen and the atmosphere is so relaxing. Always my go to place“

“This place and the chef/ owner are the best things that ever happened to Astoria. Music oh boy oh boy.“

“I pretty much go to Maman every morning Monday to Friday so much it’s become my morning ritual. William is an awesome kind quick barista with great energy, he makes you feel like you’re apart of the community. I mostly get the cold brew but the croissants are truly the best in the city. I can’t remember life before Maman lol!“

“Absolutely loved this place! It's classic NYC vibes and fits so well. The food was outstanding and for as hard as reservation were to get it was not overly expensive on the food side! Drinks were up there but nothing surprising for the city.
Absolutely get the burger and make sure you get the peprcorn sauce with it!“

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

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

“I had a wonderful dinner wih my parents at this restaurant. The food was delicious; everything that we ordered was perfectly prepared, very well seasoned and total joy to eat. The service was top-notch, and the food recommendations given by our server were spot-on. I can definitely recommend this place.“

“This is what we call “fine dining.” We did not reserve the main dining room, as one of our party did not care for prix fixe. We opted for the lounge as you can have from the menu or prix fixe. When you first arrive, you are greeted by a pleasant hat/coat check lady. We arrived early and said we would wait for the other couple and were invited to wait in the intimate cocktail area. The cocktails were superb and served with a house-made cocktail snack. When the guests of the party arrived, we were escorted to the lounge area. An intimate area with about six to eight tables. After being seated and greeted by the head server (maître d' or captain), who explained our options, we all opted for the menu. After looking at all the choices, we decided to split two appetizers. Even though the number of items on each choice was uneven, the server said, “Let me take care of it". And then beautifully presented plates arrived with equal portions. And it only got better from there. The entrées were each explained in detail, including their origins and how they were prepared. I could go on and on. The fish, beef, duck breast, and pork were everything we expected and more. We all commented, maybe the best we have had. The house made desserts were perfect. I had possibly the best cheese plate I have ever had. The entire staff of servers were professionals and enhanced the evening. The most disappointing part of the evening was when a guest entering the dining room (after removing his overcoat) came in dressed in Dockers and a short-sleeve polo. This is an insult to the owner, the chef, and the entire staff at this fine restaurant. But maybe he was an elite or a “special” person. We all said we would be back.“

“Food and service spectacular. Beautiful room.“

“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!!!“

“Amazing food and ambiance.“

“The best Wiener Schnitzel outside Austria!!!!👍“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“A very fancy and romantic restaurant.“

“Good food, good coffee and just the right vibe! Visiting from Mississippi.“

“This has been one of the best meals I’ve ever had. My wife and I came here on a whim. We went full French classics: Frog’s Legs, Escargot, Steak Tartare, Petit Moules Marinère, Goat cheese Puffs and Salmon Pave. Everything was seasoned well and tasted delicious. It reminded us of our trip to Paris a couple years ago. Highly Recommend if you are into French food and in the area.“

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

“Quiet, tasty, and welcoming service. It earns its star (especially those sauces). The waiter may add some charm and levity even as the kitchen peels their little heirloom tomatoes. Equally solid for birthdays, anniversaries, and getting a nice quiet corner to yourself.

If you're into wine, be sure to look out for their semi-regular events.“

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

“An unforgettable experience here at Le Jardinier!!! Whilst it wasnt a tasting menu each course including the amuse bouche were so special. We were greeted with the person at the door being very kind to put my umbrella in the holder. We were led to our table and the ambience was nicely darkly lit and very atmospheric. The service throughout was impeccable and always led with a smile. One of them lit up when I told them it was my birthday and they were super kind to give a complimentary dessert with a candle and a message at the end.

The bread at the start was very special in itself. So many kinds to choose from and each was very unique with their own textures and size. I loved the layered bread and the butter with the name of the restaraunt on it. The bread melted in my mouth.

The amuse bouche was plated and presented so beautifully in the dome. It was so delectable

The appetisers were extemely rich. I was surprised on how big the foie gras dish was. Loved the presentation and how it came with the perfect bread which was cut so nicely. The vegetables that came with it were so good and the combination was so good.
The scallop dish was also really good. But it was quite salty and the green sauce added a weird combination that felt quite off, but still i got used to it and i ended up enjoying it a lot.

The octopus was extremely tender as well as the duck. The duck skin was unbelievable. So crispy. The sauces were also super rich and light and delicious as well as the duck croquet which went so well with it. The ravioli was also incredible

Each of the desserts also looked exceptional and tasted as well, bursting with colours and flavours and textures.

Highly recommend this place!!“

“Le Rock had been on my bucket list for a while, and the polished Art Deco interior was a highlight. Our server was attentive and went out of his way to guide us. The food was good overall, though nothing quite rose to the level of exceptional.“

“Lovely and warm friendly service just stopped for a drink.“

“Established in 1937, Le Veau d'Or (located at 129 E 60th St) is Manhattan’s oldest French bistro. Revitalized by renowned chefs Riad Nasr and Lee Hanson (of Frenchette and Le Rock), it masterfully bridges an old-school, red-draped dining room aesthetic with elevated, contemporary French cooking“

“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.“

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

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

“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.“

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

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

“Food and drinks were amazing.“

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

“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.“

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

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

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

“Didnt want to post too many snapshots of our dinner because I loved the surprises each dish came with but had to share the most lovely dinner experience I've had in a while. Set in a lovely chic Japanese variety and cookware shop, HOUSE brings a homey but elevated feel in terms of both experience and food. Everyone from the host to the chefs to the service workers were all the kindest and most professional.

The food is phenomenal and teeters between fresh and bright bites to savory and rich dishes. Every dish is well balanced and the textures are amazing. They even included an anniversary dessert and were just the most thoughtful and engaging - definitely worth coming back! Worth every penny and more.“

“Se puede recomendar todo porque es un Arte culinario y llena cualquier paladar.“

“It was a very wonderful experience. The restaurant atmosphere is spot on, large with high ceilings, nice decor and comfortable seats. The service is wonderful though I did have a little bit of trouble understanding the explanation of the dishes (but the online menu tells you everything you need to know). The dishes tasted much better in the beginning than towards the end. The veal dish was not very tender. And their duck pie fell a little short on flavor. But very nice touch at the end moving to the couches and having tea/cake. The Polaroid pic at the end was cute.“

“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.“

“I have to admit, every dish here is absolutely exquisite.“

“I love this spot! I come here every time I visit New York—it's truly a hidden gem. The goat cheese salad and the French onion soup are absolute classics and always delicious. The service is also 10/10. Carmen was incredibly attentive and sweet, making the whole experience even better. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Brooklyn!“

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

“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“

“I had an amazing experience at Risbo. From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming, attentive, and professional. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a great meal.

The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was prepared with care, and the portions were generous. The menu offered a great variety of options, making it easy for me to find something I would enjoy. Definitely 10/10 and will be returning.“
