Chez Francis is a classic French brasserie featuring art deco design and reasonable prices. The menu offers delicious bistro food like steak frites, duck breast, and the standout cassoulet, which is rare to find in New York City. This comforting dish reminds diners of Southern France, making it perfect for a rainy night. The wine selection and classic cocktails complement the meals well. The clean, modern decor with wooden accents gives the space a fresh, contemporary feel. The seating is thoughtfully arranged to create a sense of space and privacy, and the overall vibe is lively yet relaxed. Reviewers note that the French onion soup is the best they have had in years, and the duck and steak au poivre are both well-prepared and flavorful. The excellent service provided by attentive and friendly staff enhances the experience, making diners feel truly welcome. While the restaurant can get lively as the evening progresses, it remains a wonderful choice for classic French food, inviting guests to stay longer and enjoy the atmosphere as much as the meal. Highly recommended for an exceptional dining experience, Chez Francis is a must-visit for those seeking a genuine taste of France.
