Best Bistros in Ridgefield Park

We have dined here several times but this was really an outstanding experience. Everything was delicious, served professionally and the noise level was comfortable. I had the special arugula corn and avocado salad, followed by the duck breast with figs. I loved the large slices instead of the usual many thin slices. It was tender and juicy. The figs were marinated and out of this world. I shared the warm bread pudding with my husband. Delicious. The only negative was the espresso. Watery and tasteless. Our friends loved their meal as well. We enjoyed the whole thing so much we stayed 3 hours!

Took my mom here for her 77th birthday and was so happy it was still decorated for Christmas, what a beautiful sight! The food and drinks were amazing and the cost for 4 of us was reasonable! Would definitely come back to Papillon Bistro and Bar when I visit NYC!

Over all had the nicest time! So many GF options for my daughter. The place was almost magical the second you walked in.

Before posting this, I read a bunch of reviews and I can completely understand both the five star and the one star ratings - there is validity in both. This is not a big fancy hotel high tea. It is pricy for the amount of food/drink you are served. The location is small/intimate. But it was *perfect* for what I was going for. I booked this restaurant for a three generation event (grandma, me, and tween) - it was a delicious and sweet and pink experience! Fancy without being stuffy. Tea was good - although you have to let it steep before it is served and take out the bag before it steeps to long. Food was good, and the amount of food was just right - we all left feeling full, but not stuffed. Service was good. I'm satisfied!

Ambiance: great/ food: starters,great/ main: steak: tough,not high quality. Cocktails: not good, why can’t restaurants in NY make a simple, descent vodka martini, a real man’s do, not “dirty “ and all that crap. Sorry!
