Pleasantly surprised by this hole in the wall French bistro in Murray Hill.
The decor is very quaint and makes everyone feel like they’re in a Parisian bistro.
Food is well done. Great flavors and perfect French fare – can’t ask for anything more.
Recommend the steak frites and the profiteroles.

Did I just finish an entire pot of mussels by myself? Yes. Did I regret it? No. Generous amount of serving. The only thing I wish was served was some bread to go alongside the dish. My husband ordered the steak and it was excellent. However he would have wanted more caramelized onions. The service was prompt. Staff were all nice. Place is clean. It’s a neighborhood gem. Looking forward to trying their dinner service next time.

All the food here was delicious. Especially the steak frites, the meat was perfectly cooked and marinated and the flavors complemented the salad it was served with perfectly.

I had a nice dinner with friends at this neighborhood joint. The place is small, tables are a bit tight but they have outdoor seatings. The food was pretty good and service was great.
We started off with Mussels Marinieres, Escargot, and White asparagus which was tasty.
The Pork Chop special of the night was a bit dry, Duck confit and Steak Frites were flavorful and juicy.

Top French food, better than many places we had in Paris. Dont let the area fool you, its legit. Reason why they have been open for 15y!

As a Frenchman, I enjoyed the confit and the escargots. My guest enjoyed the trout almond one and the steak special. The wine list was slim but good wines at a fair price. The place is very small and you will be eating in close proximity to other tables as is the norm in older Parisian establishments. No complaints there.
The reason for 3 stars. The pushiness/rudeness of the server/hostess to free our table. We were well in our time “allocation” of 1:45. You could see the hostess and owner constantly fretting about pushing people out. Forget about a relaxing meal or an establishment that cares about your experience. In and out. That’s the goal.
I truly wanted to love this place. The food was very good. The busboy was great. The atmosphere cozy. But I will never go back due to the lack of service or client appreciation. Very disappointing.

This place is such a hidden gem in the neighborhood. It is one of our favorite places in NYC. The atmosphere is cozy, inviting, and very French. The food is nice and consistent. I dream of the day that they bring back the pear tarte tatin.

A decent French hole-in-the wall with outdoor seating, in an area with few options. Loved the art work on the converted wine bottles which were used for water. Finally a place that doesn’t have freezing cold water. Slow service. Hot drinks were warm drinks (think warm brown water, luke warm tea etc). Food was decent. Bus boy did his job with such spreed, efficiency and precision; it’s obvious he’s an expert. I enjoyed watching him do his job so well… with a smile.

A very cozy French restaurant. The atmosphere was great, the food was amazing. The escargot was very authentic and very flavorful served with a side a bread. I had the Trout Almondine, it was light, yet very buttery and savory. Highly recommend. I paired it with the Sauvignon blanc. My friend had the pan roasted half chicken which was also delicious, savory and full of umami.
My only complaint is the service policy. The waiter would not let us sit down until all of the party of three were there, until we spoke to the manager. When we got seated, we were not allowed to order an appetizer in advance or a snack to share while we waited for the last member of the party in addition to keep asking when they would arrive.
So again be prepared for a very strict service policy. Besides the service, the food was amazing.
7/10

Everything here amazing! One of the best French restaurants in the city and that I’ve ever tried! The steak frites are to die for and the creme brûlée is the best one I’ve ever tried! Can’t wait to come back. 10/10
