Stopped by last night for dinner. They were offering a special Lobster Ravioli. I decided to give it a try and hands off to the chef. It was DIVINE!!! So light tasty and delicious. The sauce was perfect. I want to go back this weekend for seconds. Kudos to the chef.

One of my favorite places to get steak! Chef is fantastic, one of my favorites in the city and the service is excellent. Really awesome art and decor inside as well.

I was invited by a longtime friend in this cool restaurant in Harlem. The young server and the manager were awesome.
I loved the way the restaurant was decorated.
Beautiful art all over the place. Rustic table.
It’s just a nice place to relax and enjoy life.
Let’s not forget the great food and the wine selection.

By sheer serendipity, we arrived just as they were opening at noon on Saturday. I say serendipity, because Google is quite convinced they have been open since midnight, which is very untrue, despite efforts on the lart of the hostess to get it changed (I tried too, hopefully it takes and no one else gets disappointed because they’re closed). The place was bafflingly empty for most of our meal, peaceful and quiet, if a bit on the warm side. Honestly, overhead fans are about the only thing that could have improved the experience.
The whole place is a distinct vibe, even the bathroom felt like a very particular time and place (tidy, big enough I didn’t feel claustrophobic, had a place to set my purse). The hostess/waitress was delightfully friendly, bustling around opening windows and setting things up, and she had spot-on recommendations for what to order (and what not to- a few of the drinks on the menu, they’re missing ingredients right now because of supply chain issues).
And the food… Well, when the New Orleans native tells you the grits are some of the best he’s ever had, you listen (and steal a bite, because Damn). The croque madame and home fries got inhaled no less quickly, and my steak sandwich with its fried peppers and onions was to die for. I took a little longer to finish, but only because my salad (dressed to perfection, with bright fresh greens and a bit of shredded cabbage) was massive.
We are Absolutely coming back, even if we do live several states away.

We had such a great time here! Tom is super kind. The food was extremely good, the onion soup is insanely tasty and full of cheese ❤️ Was my partners birthday so Tom gave him a birthday crème brûlée and I have to say that we loved the dessert, was really good and the music

We came here on a Friday evening. Initially, there were 4 of us but we were expecting some additional family members to join us. The waiter was nice enough to allow us to sit at a larger table that would accommodate our total party. He was very nice and personable. He gave us some good menu suggestions and checked on us often. The food and drinks were spot on. Everything was great except for people walking past asking for money, asking to taste our food etc. Unfortunately, the restaurant can’t manage people walking past but it makes for an uncomfortable dining experience. Next time we go, we’ll avoid the outdoor seating closer to the street or just dine indoors.

I haven’t had their food yet but have stopped in for happy hour and enjoyed the experience. Nice bartenders and pleasant environment.
Update: French onion soup hit the spot on a snowy day.

A great Friday night late dinner. This was a delicious treat – the steak au poivre was excellent, and I was blown away by portion sizes. This is a great, home-cooked spot with friendly staff. Welcoming, unique, with a huge variety.

The best restaurant in Harlem! Authentic French country and rustic food made by a star chef, served by genuinely welcoming and nice wait staff. Simple and rustic decor complements the unpretentious food and makes for a leisurely and luxurious dining experience unlike anywhere else. Truly a rare place that is a destination for people who know food, celebrate diversity and love Harlem. One of the only places like it and the best of any around.
