French Roast is a delight for food, drink, and atmosphere. We Ate brunch at around 1030 AM. Everything was delicious! The Brioche French Toast was light and sweet and the fruit compote added the perfect amount of tart to the meal. The Shakshuka is delightful and full of spices! The Mezcla sausage tastes great, but be-warned it is spicy! The cappuccino was Great! The tight cozy feel with the vibration from the subway passing beneath gives this restaurant that NYC ambiance that’s second to none. Whether you’re a local or visiting Manhattan for the first time this is a great place to stop and eat!

Steph was such a great server! Super friendly, helpful with the menu, and always checking in to make sure we were enjoying everything. She made our dinner even better. Would absolutely love to have her as our server again.

Came her for Saturday brunch with some friends. The restaurant is styled as a classic French brasserie and had lots of outdoor seating.
The French onion soup and croque madames were perfection. We ate every last bite. Only negative was that one friend had an omelet that wasn’t cooked long enough for the cheese to melt. Overall, the food was delicious. Our server was attentive and friendly. Will definitely be going back to try more!

Such a feel good place. We also
had the nicest waitress, Maria Alejandra. She had the best energy and was so careful to make sure we got exactly what we ordered. Feels like a little European bistro tucked into the upper west side of New York. Perfect place to meet a friend, spend a rainy afternoon or a Sunday morning. Had such a nice time! Food came out fast and was lovely.
Went back again and had the most sincere careful waiter David. He is the nicest person and we had a lovely brunch! Thank you David you are incredible and so warm and wonderful.

Food was ok (home fries were not warm) but plates were warm.
Staff were very attentive and friendly.
It was a windy day so the window seats were a bit cold. If you can, stay away from the window seatings

First I have to mention that the service was impeccable from the moment we walked in! Our server Lena took care of us and gave us recommendations! We came in for happy hour and started with a couple of drinks and small plates (mussels, potato skins, and cheese plate). All were excellent! We had Coq au Vin and Cassoulet as our entrees. They both hit the spot and provided a level of warmth on a cold autumn night! We cannot wait to return to try the rest of the menu with service so welcoming and outstanding!

It was my first time dinning in a French restaurant in NYC and I absolutely loved it. I ordered the Cassoulet and it was so tasty, so juicy and delicious. Leandro was so kind and sweet when describing the dish itself. Very helpful. I love the whole experience at the restaurant. I’ll come back for sure to try more dishes. 100% recommended!

French Roast is an underground must-visit restaurant!
Food: Get the Pan Roasted Yellowfish Tuna (pictured)! For dessert, I highly enjoyed the mango cheesecake and brownie a la mode (both pictured).
Experience: I was warmly greeted by hostess Sheerin and evening manager Betsy at the door! My reservation for 5 was super easy to place, and all table service was speedy and enjoyable thanks to our server, Adam. He made sure allergens were accounted for, and recommended our plates to us!
Great start to the new year.

4.4/5 rounded down. We are eating smaller portions so thought the Happy Hour menu was perfect for us. We got moules mariniere (mussels in wine sauce), pommes farcies (potato skins), chicken liver pate and truffle fries. All good and well proportion & for $8 each. Complementary delicious bread served with our food. Discounted beer and wine. Atmosphere is lively without being too noisy. Outdoor seating. June 2025

We love French Roast and our excellent server Yesenia! Today started with an excellent compliment from Yesenia which just brightened my whole day <3. We loved our meal and I’m obsessed with the French fries. But, this story starts long ago, 2 years ago in fact. I was doing my first ever watch through of gossip girl and Nate mentioned he was going to come to French roast for lunch. I immediately saved it in my Google Maps. This is my 2nd visit and it was better than the last. Thank you Yesenia!
