60 Thompson concierge Paul recommends the quiet weekday breakfast. The scrambled eggs in puff pastry are by far the best item on the menu.

Constantly crowded. At least the food is good. Venue was really successful at reminding me of visiting Paris.

The restrooms are not for the shy ones- there is a servant there standing approx 2" away from you while you're doing your business!

Fries and bread are not to be missed. French onion soup is great. Steak is ok.

severely over priced but the lemonade is superb
JPAugust 7, 2014
When making a reservation, request a table in the back, it's way too crowded if you're seated in the front.
