Nice and quiet atmosphere.
Great service.
Food is delicious and fresh!
One of my favorite things was the bread basket, their bread is something very special! High level of baked goods!! The small bread with the spinach flour was unbelievable.

Can’t wait to come back !!

Both dessert nice crisps combo.

Out of all restaurants week tried and tested , Le Jardinier is one of the best. It has the charming attentive but not over the top service, food is consistent (yummy and small portion ) with one star rated Michelin level. Desserts need a little polishing (egg foam was well eggie, tart base was rock hard) Decor is great inside though, great vibe for romantic or family or party get togethers. Bonus point for partnering with InKind.

Bread is so good!
The starters are so refreshing and well-balanced.☺️
The salmon is cooked medium and tastes great.
The beef cheeks are a little bit too salty.
Desserts are a little bit too sweet.
The cappuccino has a bitter taste but pairs well with sweet treats.
Overall enjoyable.

We’d walked past this restaurant so many times over the years and finally remembered to try it for a birthday celebration. I’m glad we did as we had a close to perfect experience.

The items we selected from the menu:

STARTERS
BURRATA, Honeycrisp apple, black mission fig, pecan gremolata – I found this a little boring in comparison to other items on the menu, but mainly because I was comparing to the pork belly.
POITRINE DE PORC GLACÉE, Pork belly, kohlrabi, calamansi vinaigrette, green grapes, hazelnuts – This was lovely, though I kind of wish it had some crackling on top, but it still had a very crunchy outer texture which I like.

MID-COURSE
RICOTTA AGNOLOTTI, koginut squash, beurre noisette, whey foam, pain d’epice – This was really yummy!
POULPE GRILLÉ, Spanish octopus, pumpkin seed romesco, lentils, purple cabbage – Always like octopus and this was cooked to near perfection.

ENTRÉES
FLÉTAN DE L’ATLANTIQUE, Halibut, marinated courgettes, Thai basil, lemongrass emulsion – The fish was cooked perfectly.
MAGRET DE CANARD AUX ÉPICES, Hudson Valley duck, plums, arugula & yuzu coulis, marcona almond – Always like duck and it was good, but my preference is for super crispy skin, not a fan of soft duck skin.

DESSERTS
SABAYON CARAMEL, White chocolate ice cream, cocoa nibs, Valrhona guanaja chocolate – the presentation of this was absolutely exquisite and very nice to eat!
AUTUMN MILLE-FEUILLE, Puff pastry, pumpkin cheesecake mousse, maple ice cream – An interesting take on a mille-feuille, rather than multiple laminated wafers this was constructed with just one wafer as the base. But still very yummy.
BIRTHDAY cake – The restaurant kindly provided this as a freebie, I think it was a coconut mousse. In some respects I think this was actually my favourite of the 3 desserts.

Something to note was that they had a selection of 3 different breads. The spinach bread puff and mini French baguette were lovely. The breads sticks were a little too hard, but still nice too munch on! At least the restaurant is providing a selection of breads, which is more than can be said for most restaurants these days, even the high-end ones. We still miss Bouley and the huge selection of wonderful breads that were served at his restaurants.

There’s a small selection of mocktails, the FALL FIZZ didn’t have that much flavour but the second mocktail I had, the Nagranni, was better.

The dining space design is very elegant, mostly hard stone surfaces with foliage scattered strategically around. By the time we left the restaurant it was about half full and the noise level had increased, but still easy enough to talk quietly to one another, though I expect it could get quite loud if it was full. I’d also recommend you get one of the banquette tables, which are around the edge of the dining room. It’s cosy and provides a little privacy as well. Because the restaurant was half full almost everyone was seated at one of them unless they were more than 4 people or dining alone.

The service was also excellent, warm and efficient from all the staff we encountered. Which is quite an accomplishment as it can be quite variable for most restaurants.

Definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for an elevated dining experience.

This has become our favorite French restaurant in New York City. Modern and elegant without being pretentious. The cuisine is creative and delicious, competing head to head with Michelin star restaurants in Paris. The staff is extremely friendly and competent — the team is simply generous. They ran out of the house wine and offered a much better selection for the same price. My wife mentioned how she loved seared fois gras, and a surprise course appeared as a gift from the chef. Something he had been developing for an upcoming menu. Don’t expect that treatment on your first visit, we’ve been coming here every couple weeks lately!

Service impeccable. The food was fantastic although sometimes not mind-blowing which I would have expected from this kind of restaurant. The issue I had was with the pan seared sole which was a bit bland. The duck was delicious but the extras on that dish were a bit strange tasting. The desserts were on another level from everything else. Generally a great experience but there were some things here and there that were curious.

This was such a special dinner – so beautiful in every way! I wish this service were available everywhere. They were so kind to us, letting us have drinks at the bar as long as we wished to wait, loaning me some scissors to cut a forgotten tag off my skirt, and taking photos for us. The cocktail was unusually well-balanced, the champagne selection was wonderful (and in a flute, as I wanted), and the salad and fishes were phenomenal. The chef visited with us and was such a lovely person. We agreed it’s been a long time since we had a dinner like this and we can’t wait to go back. It was so refreshing relative to so many other dining experiences – truly perfection.

Everything here was amazing. We had a reservation and it was so peaceful. We had the 4 course tasting menu. The chef was very generous and sweet and we especially loved the random dessert options they brought to our table.

The staff were all very fun and sweet and had a great sense of humor

The cute autumn inspired food items was the cherry on top.

I look forward to going again and exploring more of this amazing restaurant, and trying more yummy desserts before fall is over!

Would I return? Unlikely, no dish stood out despite the presentation and elaborate culinary techniques. Dessert was the best part as it’s often the case with French cuisine. Nice ambiance, felt more business type vibes, service was a bit overbearing – luckily spaced out enough not to be too annoying.
