Needs work. Great fries when you work your way down they are cold and lousy. Steak was not medium. Asparagus salad looked dated. Great onion soup. Pricey for what you get.

Went last night for the first time, based on many positive reviews that have been posted on-line. The wait staff was very attentive, pleasant and knowledgeable. We ordered drinks but had to wait about 15 minutes to receive, which was odd given the bar area was completely empty. For the meal, I started with the Onion Soup which was quite good. My entree was the Coq Au Vin. This by far was the strangest Coq Au Vin I have ever seen- it looked two hockey pucks on a plate- one piece with the outside fried and the other piece wrapped around as if it was a piece of sausage. While some would say this was creative, I think it stretched the bounds of what Coq Au Vin is supposed to be. The taste was OK- nothing special. My wife ordered the shoulder steak- after a few minutes, the waiter came back and advised they were out of the shoulder steak- AT 8:15 ON A SATURDAY NIGHT? That was disappointing. She then switched over to the strip steak with fries. When her meal was served, the steak was cold and had to be returned to be heated up. Additionally, they forgot to bring the fries out and WE HAD TO ASK TWICE before the fries were served. We also had a second round of drinks- my wife a glass of wine and a scotch for me. I asked for the scotch on the rocks and the waited asked if I wanted regular crushed ice or a single cube. I asked for the crushed ice and received the drink with a single cube. While this was not a big deal, it just added to an evening that was not quite right. Micheline markets itself as a high end eatery and is certainly not cheap (many would call it expensive)- therefore the types of issues we had should not be occuring. We did not have dessert and when we received the check, the waiter told us they took the one glass of wine off the bill. That in our opinion was an insufficient gesture given the number of issues we had. In any event, we paid up, left and unfortunately will not be returning.

No question, THE FINEST RESTAURANT in Westchester County, NY. Look you out to eat for a good meal and to be pampered with service. Micheline has the best food north of the City. Period, end of story. From the burger to the fish to the meat, the food is delicious. Always paired with the perfect wine. I'm a beaujolais guy but their selection is vast. My new favorite dish on the menu is the duck and the puree that comes with it. As an appetizer, I love their soups.

We had a beautiful evening in this comfortable and relaxed setting. The food and service were outstanding. The wine recommended by the waiter was fantastic as well (Sancerre). It was my birthday and they made me feel special. The owner visited each table during the night. We enjoyed the mussells and the chicken liver pate. Cheescake was to die for. I would highly recommend!

My dinner at Micheline was perfect. Every dish from apps to desserts was delish. Everything is made in house and all of the ingredients are hand selected by the chef and are locally sourced, I love that. Our waiter Patrick was such a pleasure. He helped navigate us through the menu and I really enjoyed his food and wine suggestions, paired perfectly. The General Manager Devin and Owner Jonathan checked in to make sure we were enjoying everything as well! The staff were very nice and welcoming, I will definitely be back and highly recommend!Parking: I parked in the lot behind the restaurant for free.

My first trip to Micheline. Will be the first of many. Food was really good -- each dish unique in its own way. Onion soup was superb, the burger the best I have had in the past year (and I am difficult). Service was great; the waitress was in extremely knowledgeable and went out of her way to explain the source of some of the dishes, etc. Her suggestions were helpful and had real credibility. Mussels were really tasty and the texture was unusual -- making for a multi-sensory experience! The owner is everywhere, spends time at each table, really makes you feel like you are eating in his home. A slam dunk of a restaurant. Can't wait to see what it's like in a year.

Excellent food and very attentive staff. Our waiter, Derek is the best - we have been a couple of time to Micheline and each time we had Derek be our server. It seems so rare these days to get great food and service - so kudos to Micheline for providing both!

Excellent food with exemplary service. Our server, Zeek, was very polite and attentive...and so was rest of the staff. Service was seamless with continuous wine and water refills, napkin etiquette during restroom visit, regularly checking if were enjoying the food. Menu and ingredient choices were slightly unique, they didn't look or taste like every other restaurant, including dessert options. Food was delicious from oysters to fresh salad and perfectly cooked fish. The only dish that I didn't particularly like were the escargot - both taste and presentation, but that could be just from my personal preference for classic instead of served in a sauce. We will be going back soon.

Wonderful restaurant with beautiful ambiance and thoughtfully prepared dishes. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back!!
Such a wonderful evening and an excellent addition to the neighborhood. Service was warm and attentive and the food was superb. By far the best duck confit and escargot in westchester. And that parsnip soup, just wow. Can’t wait to return!

The food at Micheline was absolutely terrific. I had the parsnip soup which was one of the best soups I have ever had. The duck confit fell right off the bone and was filled with flavor. This was a perfect dinner on a winter's night and we had a great time celebrating my dad's bday. Even the bread and butter was above average!The servers are all very friendly and give great (and honest!) recommendations about the menu based on our tastes and preferences.The cherry on top was the owner Jonathan, who personally introduced himself and was incredibly kind to us. He made our visit to Micheline extra special.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian & vegan apps and entrees are available.Dietary restrictions: They are able to adapt dishes to people with gluten and dairy allergies.

WOW! The only reason to go to Scarsdale is Micheline LOL Simply incredible food. I don’t even like french food and I loved this restaurant. Great cocktails. French food at its finest but accessible. Perfect ambiance. The best kind of date or celebratory dinner spot. We had a couple fish dishes that were cooked to perfection. Recommend the fluke but the bass was also tasty. A generous steak with crispy french fries was a favorite. The staff were friendly and attentive. The mezcal cocktail was tasty and not too sweet - highly recommend that one. The attention to detail was oozing everywhere - even the bathroom with its changing table for parents and pull string for help for seniors. The honeycomb ice cream was better than Van Leeuwen’s honey ice cream!!!!
Delighted with this place. What an addition to Scarsdale -- the quality and attention to detail shine. Going back tonight, in fact! Lots of interesting cocktails worth looking into, pre-dinner.
