- S. FanDecember 29, 2013Some of the best cocktails in the city. Patrick, the bartender, is awesome! Nice ambiance for a date. Get the raw scallop!
Zara KhanAugust 22, 2018The beef brisket burger was average. There was nothing special about it. While the onion soup looked spectacular it was also nothing out of the ordinary. The almond croissant however was amazing!!!
Harumi UAugust 7, 2015Dine in service is great - both food and service. Bakery side, make sure they give you all your order if you are ordering more than an item or two.
The Italien sandwich is good and can be picked up from the bakery. Steak tartare and burger are also tasty.
Judy CariJanuary 1, 2019The baked goods on the right when you first enter, I can’t seem to pass up their almond croissants! They are amazing.
Deviled eggs. They're not called "deviled eggs" on the menu, but you'll figure it out.
Amelie BMay 17, 2013Carmellini did it again. Great food but the chocolate torte is to die for. Careful when ordering: portions are as good but a lot bigger than locanda
Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. This Grand Cafe brings a little Paris to NYC. Solid deliciousness. -foodie magician :)- S. FanDecember 29, 2013Some of the best cocktails in the city. Patrick, the bartender, is awesone! Nice ambiance for a date. Get the raw scallop!
It's hard to screw up a rotisserie chicken salad, but it's even harder to make it truly outstanding. Order the rotisserie chicken salad.
Rumana SiddikyDecember 31, 2014Awesome steak frites - Béarnaise butter was sublime and came with a heap of fantastically crispy fries
Michael 🍷 ElmgreenJuly 15, 2017Omelette with confit tomatoes and robiola cheese = beautifully presented and f*cking delicious.
Premshree PillaiJune 10, 2013Let me let you in on a little secret: some of the best bread in the city is being baked right here. Get the campagne.
Paul CunninghamJuly 17, 2016Went for breakfast. The soft eggs were excellent. So were the lemon pancakes - an almost custard-like consistency.
for lunch: the rotisserie chicken salad (w walnuts & yogurt). for snack: why, macarons, of course.
Ohilikechickn .July 15, 2017Nice brunch spot, great coffee and pastries. Good lemon ricotta pancakes... If you're into that kind of thing.
eric bornemannFebruary 24, 2018Fantastic food and love the monthly menu from a different region of France - lots of fun.
Angela ChungSeptember 7, 2018Croque madame and fries were AMAZING. Pancakes, unfortunately, were kind of a let down, especially for price.
Elizabeth BursteinAugust 21, 2017The runny eggs were good but a tiny portion. The almond croissant was delicious
Cass GrimmOctober 18, 2016Call me cheap but $18 for pancakes seemed like a LOT of money. Were they delicious, yes, but the sticker shock kind of killed the experience for me.
EAugust 26, 2015Amazing French pastries. Restaurant located in great area. Heard brunch is great so will try that next
jiresellDecember 31, 2015One of the classic NYC French bistros. Pasta courses and desserts especially good!- Holger LüdorfApril 3, 2014Great spot for lunch. Loved both the steak tartare and the frisée salad with poached egg.
CBS New YorkJune 11, 2015They're serving "Eggs Lafayette," a pair of deviled eggs with smoked sable and trout, for NYC Cocktail Week (July 13th through the 17th). Read more
I stop by the bakery counter at the front of the restaurant any time I'm in the area for an almond croissant
Come for brunch but stay for the adorable pastel macarons. This place has fancy lady brunch written all over it.
The wifi password is croissant & the lamb sandwich is amazing
MrsCorksterSeptember 30, 2015Stumptown coffee at their little cafe for when you don't want to queue for a cup at La Colombe next door.
Mitsuko ImamuraMarch 30, 2014Egg Lafayette and apple tulip pastry are among faves. Their house brew coffee has very good flavour.
Tim SheaApril 16, 2018Beautiful interior, service can be a little slow for brunch, but dinner is outstanding.
I love their banana chocolate croissant! All of their other croissants are good too
Ngan NguyenApril 19, 2015Tuna Niçoise salad was lovely - light, flavoursome with beautifully seared tuna. Recommended.
Really beautiful space. For brunch I recommend the soft scramble. It comes in a croissant bread bowl!
Monster breakfast portions for a "French restaurant". Faves are still the breakfast oatmeal or the granola
Elvis RodricksFebruary 2, 2014Great french bakery section with bar stools. The birthday flavor macaroon is the way to go.
Maia McCannApril 17, 2013Good lord order the crab terrine and butter lettuce and do your best to avoid the sad customers from the upper east side (or worse??) who are dressed like they're going sailing.
Gorgeous room, gracious service. Save room for dessert, the in house pastry chef is awesome.
Jason WoodardOctober 5, 2014The duck was great. So was the pate. Had a great martini. All with excellent service.
Divya MenonSeptember 14, 2014Great place for brunch! When your their you must get their - Almond,banana,coconut,chocolate croissant 😊
Brad ThompsonJune 13, 2021Good drinks, omelette is a tad small for $24 with very little ham, although very tasty with the cheese.
LilyFebruary 28, 2016Come here for birthdays. They celebrate them better than anyone. Also, get the steak or the pork.
