    Really good service, menu was authentic French rather than a US take on french food and everything was well cooked and very efficiently served. Wines were great value with some nice wines by the glass.

    The atmosphere, service, and food were all top notch! .They served promptly enough for us to go to the theater, but did not rush us. The service couldn’t have been better - they were friendly, helpful, and attentive. Best New York restaurant experience we’ve had for a pre theatre meal!

    We dined here before a show. The food was delicious; the service was excellent; and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The portion size was very generous and my steak was well prepared.
