For an UWS restaurant with high prices, I expected more from the food and service. (Even their prix- fixe lunch is more expensive than most along the Ave) The Cauliflower Soup was superb. The seared tuna sandwich was very good but side salad only consisted of a few greens. Caesar salad was disappointing -substituting regular lettuce for romaine, no cheese although it did have one anchovy. Port tacos were just ok - can get better ones for half the price, Molten lava cake was fabulous. Our server was very sweet and pleasant but we had to keep chasing her down for so many things, and the place was not busy at all. - no one stopped to ask how we were doing or refilled water glasses and when I took my half sandwich to go, they didn't pack the salad to go with it While we had a nice time, it's not enough to return for another visit.

Had a very nice brunch. Good menu. Good room. We had very nice service and everyone enjoyed what they ordered.

This is a lovely restaurant. Very charming decor that makes you feel like you are in a French country bistro in Provence. The staff were very welcoming and what stood out to me and my friend was that the diners were middle-aged and older rather than the millenials and GenXers that seem to frequent every restaurant in Manhattan and the boros. It was nice not to feel like the oldest diners in the room for a change. We ordered the large escargot appetizer which was not better than okay. Needs more garlic in my opinion and a few thinner slices of bread to sop up the sauce. I ordered the chicken dish which was quite good--especially the sauce--but the spinach was too salty for my taste. The whipped potatoes were delicious but not $15 for such a tiny serving. Prices for most of the entrees were very expensive--$48++. Our bill was over $160 with one drink, a hamburger and my chicken dish. Plus cher as they say in France!

The good reviews and amazing looking photos of brunch fooled us. Very average food. Quite a nice looking room. And the service... I don't know... I think I might have reminded her of an ex-boyfriend that was a real a--h---- or something. We were a group and my friends and family were actually laughing about the hate this woman seemed to have on me. We did get a big smile and thank you at the check drop, but until then, it was kinda weird.

A really nice meal for the four of us. Wine list is good value but not overly extensive list which made choosing easy. The food was really good! Comfort food with a French twist. I had the 1/2 boneless chicken over spinach and sauce. It was excellent. My son had a steak which was cooked perfectly. Salads were super large and tasty. Nice atmosphere with a beautiful bar area. Staff was very attentive. Highly recommend.

We had been sitting a while before I requested for a waiter. It was longer then then the normal wait time. One waiter started us off and then the person who was suppose to be our waiter picked up. Maybe the next time it will different.

Dined here last night to celebrate our anniversary that was on the same day as Thanksgiving. My husband’s request for a corner table and our anniversary was very warmly acknowledged by the restaurant with an appetizing dessert. The manager, Madina came to wish us personally which was very thoughtful. The ambience was festive & the cocktails were delish. We had the shrimp toast, my husband had the steak & I had the short rib cavatelli. Would def come back here!
Superlative in every sense of the word, from food to ambient, and Bibi’s service, n‘est pas?!

Bibi was the best bartender. She was so kind and generous to all of us.
