About The Good King Tavern

The Good King Tavern offers a low-key French Bistro experience with a top-notch bar. The popular Socca dish might take a while to make, so order early. With outstanding drink options, a great wine list, and reasonable prices, it's a perfect mix of upscale and casual. Dishes like steak tartare with fries and complex gnocchi are amazing, with perfect scallops and mussels. The friendly service and fantastic food make it a must-visit spot that guests can't wait to return to.

The restaurant is great for dates and families, with a menu that includes burgers, steak frites, and unique options. The drinks, especially the wine and cocktails, are considered the best in the city. The duck is delicious, and the music playlist is enjoyable. Reservations are highly recommended, as the restaurant can get loud. The bathrooms are clean but dark.

The steak frites is a standout dish, with the house terrine and fried oyster with trout roe special also receiving praise. The cocktails are creative, and the wine list, though limited in some rare selections, is intriguing. While the service is generally attentive and good, there can be some tension between the server and host. The one disappointment was the profiteroles, which were described as soggy and overwhelmed by a sour lemon curd.
