At this Greenwich Village carriage house, replete with red banquettes and white tablecloths, a dressy crowd knocks back martinis as strong as lighter fluid. And the chef Brian Young channels the ancien régime with cream, foie gras and Dover sole à la Grenouille. He digs up a recipe for lobster thermidor, and the delicate shellfish suffocates in melted Gruyère.
Chateau Royale in the West Village offers a cozy, elegant French-inspired dining experience. I enjoyed the rich flavors of the carefully prepared dishes, from fresh seafood to classic entrées, all paired with attentive service. The warm, intimate atmosphere makes it perfect for date nights or relaxed dinners, and every visit feels special and satisfying.
Fantastic experience! The food was amazing and the atmosphere relaxed!
