Came here on a late weekend night as this place has been on our list for a while. It was almost full around 9pm, we got seated quickly but took a while for the server to bring the menu. We did get a corner section so felt comfy and admired the French paintings all over the wall while I waited to get served. I could tell some guests were regulars, felt like a perfect restaurant to experience delicious French food at a relaxing cozy French place. The grilled calamari was excellent and they kindly divided the dish into two plates. We ordered the burger and the roasted duck which was absolutely amazing. The staff made sure the sides (mashed potato and string beans) for the duck were portioned well and it didn’t disappoint. Not just the portion but the price points and quality was great. We topped it off with the raspberry Neapolitan and it was to die for. Light and not too sweet we couldn’t stopped scooping the sauce on the plate!

Nice local neighborhood French bistro. Loved the chocolate souffle. Other dishes were fine. House cab for $36/bottle only! Great value.
Didn’t get a chance to try their French Onion Soup as we might have missed it on the menu but later asked and was told they had it. Service was very good.

I live next to this place and truly cannot say enough good things. The food is amazing, the steak frites and French onion soup are fire. The staff is wonderful. Every single one of them is so kind and helpful. Love the ambiance as well – feels very intimate for a date night or a nice family dinner. 10/10 such a hidden gem!!

Best meal to finish out our NYC trip. Friendly and excellent service. Dress is corporate / casual. The ambience was a true Parisian style place. We started with the French onion soup. It was mild.
The bread mini baguettes at the table was perfect with fresh butter. Just needed some salt. We got a carafe of the merlot and it was the perfect amount for 2 to split (we aren’t big drinkers). Sparkling water and everyone loved their meals. The Cornish hen, chicken with gratin and the angus steak was great (steak and frites -the French classic). Spring for the chxocate soufflé at the end! I love creme brûlée but the crème caramel was a nice change (more flan like but a delicious butter/syrup with a hint of orange). Be sure to get coffee too. We travelled with teenagers and the loved it all.

I will be honest: I avoided this place for years after a bad encounter with some pests. But on a freezing day when I couldn’t bear to travel another block, I mustered the courage and went back in. In a bizarre stroke of irony, the waiter sat me at the exact same table where I met an insecta friend years ago.
The interior hasn’t changed much retaining that familiar cozy and homey atmosphere. The entire meal was so great that it made me regret staying away for so long. The service was good and the female wait person was funny and friendly. The special dishes were excellent and the onion soup was delicious. I prefer couscous with seafood (not on the menu) but the royal option was a great choice.
It takes a lot for a restaurant to win back a skeptic like me, but they did it. Sitting at my “nemesis table” yet having a great experience was the closure I didn’t know I needed. Whatever issues they had in the past seem to be firmly in the rearview mirror. I will definitely come back.

What a gem! There are literally 11 French restaurants in this neighborhood but Deux Amis rings all the right bells. Classic French atmosphere; mahogany bar, white table cloths, burgundy red accents.
We sat at the bar (always my preference). We started with the Gazpacho and Vol Au Vent. The Vol Au Vent was crazy delicious. Perfect starter to split if you’re hungry (intensely satisfying flavors and buttery pie crust). The gazpacho was very basic tomato and very soupy smooth, but nonetheless uber refreshing and light. We were each served warm bread rolls with chilled salted butter with the appetizers.
For entrees, we had the chicken and the burger. The chicken breast was crazy juicy and tender for a breast cut, and served with a altoiid box sized piece of potato gratin. The gratin was unbelievable. You could see the thyme leaves and taste the grounding comfort food vibes.
We (as always) ordered the burger rare. It came with fries and salad. Holy smokes was it cooked perfectly. It’s the kind of thing you bite and start singing AND IIIIIIII WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOUU in your head.
Zahir was a legend. He made us feel right at home.
If you’re considering elsewhere, don’t.

Charming French spot with thoughtful service, solid food, and surprisingly affordable wine for New York. Ideal for date night.

Wow. The French onion soup is different with the star anise and cinnamon but the difference is homey and gentle. Our server was incredible and highly recommended. I even had to ask for his name and it’s Janos. Please keep this man. He explained everything perfect and chose the perfect wines to pair. I loved the beef rib and escargot.
Definitely a gem of NYC.

Unfortunately, Imwe was expecting more. The ambiance is typical French but cheap. The service was ok.
The food was disappointing, to say the least. Worst risotto ever. It was like your mom’s overnight rice. Dried and over cooked. There were no mushrooms and raw tomatoes. Clearly, the kitchen ppl have no idea how to make risotto. The short ribs were ok. Super watery and sweet. It’s like super sweet and was served room temp almost cold. So we’re the broccoli and the mash. Really doubt I’ll come back . P.s. The orchid flowers placed for decor on the food were very tacky. I dont think you can everest them. If you can’t eat them, you should not serve them.

One of the best places that I had ever tried! Good quality service or atmosphere if I could put a 6 stars a will do it for real ✍️ I tried different dishes always been satisfied ( the couscous or the bourguignon till the steak) dessert also are satisfying! Mousse au chocolat, crème brûler or crepes all is good I highly recommend! Was so tasty that I didn’t take pics to share ! So good luck for this guys they deserve the best costumer’s equally to the their service
