Rue Cler Marketplace

I want to love this place. It has a great menu and charming atmosphere but after 4-5 visits, it’s just a disappointment. The food and drink is great but typically the service is very slow and food often comes out cold and very late. On the most recent visit, one person of our party of four didn’t receive their food until the rest of us had already finished eating. I’ve seen the owner/chef berate the staff in front of customers which is very unsettling to me. It has happened on two separate occasions to two different people so doesn’t seem like an isolated incidence. Nobody should be humiliated in from Given the location, it should be packed like the other nearby establishments but is typically eerily empty. I live in the neighborhood and really was hoping this place would be a thriving establishment that many enjoy but I doubt I will be going back. The lack of customer service and poor management will keep me away. I hope they can figure it out because it does seem to have a lot of potential but the customer service is truly lacking.

We stopped in for brunch this morning and had a really great experience. The atmosphere is charming, the food and cocktails were delicious, and the server (maybe an owner?) was warm, funny and attentive. We'll go back!

May, 2024 We enjoyed a lovely anniversary dinner here, starting with a warm welcome when we arrived. The restaurant is in an airy space decorated with paintings on the walls and an assortment of interesting chandeliers. Seating is diverse, ranging from comfortable coffee tables to banquettes and a more traditional french cafe style area

Our meal included fresh bread with a good wine, tasty crab cakes on a bed of arugula, chicken cordon bleu, salad nicoise, and a flourless chocolate torte. I particularly liked the salad because unlike traditional nicoise prepared with canned tunafish, this one included a generous portion of seared ahi and some roasted Brussels sprouts.

Service was prompt and helpful. It looks like they could still use another wait-person as they get busier.

Recommended.

This place is a gem, and the eggs benedict is fantastic. The food does take some time to come out, but everyone who works here is lovely, and the atmosphere is very refreshing.

I had really wanted to give my wife a enjoyable mother's day brunch. She loves french. Unfortunately, you failed to deliver. The restaurant is in n awesome spot with great interior design but the food and service were big misses. We waited an hr plus for food while there were only 3 tables. Our server was miserable and projected onto us. The menu had us excited but didn't deliver what was written and for the price we were surprised. Hope you do better, so much potential there.

Cute place. Food was good but wasn't warm. Service was slow but it was Sunday brunch and we came in the second half. We wanted to switch tables and was told they can't do that. The restaurant was only 1/2 full.

Yesterday was our first visit to Rue Cler and it was very enjoyable. There were 7 of us for a birthday brunch. They were serving a limited menu for mother's day so we did not get to taste the crepes. But everything we had, including the cocktails,was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant. Bonus points for accepting reservations and for the cute street patio. We'll definitely be back.

Hidden GEM! Excellent friendly service, lovingly prepared food in the french style. Drinks were super yummy and the place is Uber cute!! Highly recommend. The chef/ owner is very talented and thoughtful. Everything was just perfect.

We have been to Rue Cler several times now with friends and enjoy the quiet space, the great service and excellent food. It's a great location, with great people that more people need to know about!

Food was stellar, but the place was a bit strange. Oddly empty, and with only one server. Decoration was a tad all over the place as well. I feel like this could be a really cool spot, once they get some more people in and start ironing out the details.
