French Restaurants near Sunnyside, NY

“A true hidden gem in Sunnyside. My family decided to come here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, and we were immediately surprised by the affordability and portions of the lunch special. Normally you'd expect smaller portions, naturally as it comes with an appetizer, entree, and dessert - but not here. They even came with freshly baked bread for the table too. Everything was really light, not too oily, but very hearty and delicious. To be honest it was way over my caloric intake for the day, but it was so worth it. Would recommend to anyone in the Sunnyside or Woodside area.“

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

“The food was good. We did order the very basic things like the burger and steak with fries. We also tried the souffle for dessert. Everything was good, but I'm not sure it was really worth the price. When this was a neighborhood spot and the prices matched (if that was ever the case), I could see it making a lot more sense. But at these prices, I don't think it maths. Nothing wrong with the food, but also not the best of anything I've ever had.“

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

“10/10 only amazing things to say!!

I’ve been here a handle of times and it never disappoints. The service is impeccable and the vibes are great.

Beef tar tar is one of my favorites out there
The leeks is incredible and a must
The crab avocado yummm
The egg anchovies salad is a must as well

For mains
The steak is easy and great.
People love the chicken it’s not my absolute favorite to recommend, would take the duck over it.“

“Food and service spectacular. Beautiful room.“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“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)“

“Amazing food and ambiance.“

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

“Great!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!“

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

“What a fantastic dining experience! Each dish was perfectly prepared, elegantly presented, and tasted amazing. We were glad Chef Christophe came out to say hello so we could tell him personally how much we enjoyed his creations. Gavin did a wonderful job serving us and the warm hospitality shown us by Karen and her team exceeded expectations. This is a special place - wish I could give it more than 5 stars!“

“La Cafette is the best!!!“

“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.“

“We had Christmas Eve dinner here and it was a wonderful experience! There was a partial view of the tree from our seat but it was still very special. The dining room isn’t super large and feels cozy and festive. It wasnt too noisy either. Service was great, very professional. There was a moment when they cleared crumbs off the table and accidentally brushed some onto my dads lap😅

The food was wonderful! The flavors were delicious and filled us up. I read other reviews that the portions were small but I wouldn’t agree. Only the lobster was “small” as the serving was only half a lobster. I had the Dover sole and got very full. The starter burrata pasta was so delicious I almost wished it was my main!“

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

“From Erica at the door to engaging servers, I had another stunning dinner at LVD. So elegant, polished ... but never overly so. The crepes suzette, I am still dreaming about them. Thanks to LVD and the entire team for making the entire table feel like we were there for a huge treat - which it was!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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

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

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

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

“Food and drinks were amazing.“

“Restaurant Yuu is where Japanese omakase meets French cuisine in the most thoughtful and refined way. This was truly a one-of-a-kind dining experience — every course felt intentional, balanced, and beautifully executed.

Chef Yuu is an artist. The precision, creativity, and harmony of flavors were on another level. What made the evening even more special was the unique collaboration with a chef from Edinbane Lodge from the Isle of Skye in Scotland — such a rare and inspired partnership that added depth and character to the experience.

We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary here, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place for such a meaningful night. The atmosphere, the storytelling through food, and the overall care put into the experience made it unforgettable.

A truly exceptional restaurant.“

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

“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“

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

“It's my first time on a Monday at 1 pm. Surprised date from the hubs.
I am already in love with this place, the dishes were amazing. Carmen's service was exceptional. Will definitely recommend to my family and friends. Love Williamsburg .. coming from this Staten Island resident.“

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

“Diogo is the best! Drinks are so refreshing and hit the spot especially right after work. We arrived around 5:30 when the place just started to get busy. Diogo helped us grab a table so we didn’t need to stand at the bar after a long work day“

“Excellent food with horrible service. I had the strangest time here, where the food was incredible but the service didn’t match. After being seated we waited an agonizing amount of time for anyone to actually say hello and serve us some water and bring us menus. I was starting to think maybe we offended someone or were being pranked we waited so long. This theme continued as our waitress proceeded to bring us one of the wrong dishes we didn’t order and then not even give us the dessert we asked for. I’m not sure what Carmille’s problem is but don’t take it out on us for wanting some good food.“

“Damn😭😭 that food was INCREDIBLE. I love when you leave a place with a smile and feeling like your money was well spent. Every employee is so lovely! That lamb hash??? The spicy cabbage… the chicken and waffles.Unlike any other! I was texting everyone I know as I ate. Will be back over and over!“

“Great food, good service 🇫🇷“

“We enjoyed a lovely Sunday brunch at the outside seating. The atmosphere was great, and everything was delicious. Patricia was our server and she was attentive, friendly, and made our experience even better. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you❤︎“

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

“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.“
