Ade LeriSeptember 18, 2017One of my best friends told me about this restaurant and I decided to go. I really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere, live music, and the decor.
- Brian MichaelJuly 13, 2014The escargot and crab cake were both amazing! For entrees, both the chicken dishes were juicy and succulent! For dessert, get the chocolate heaven and the frozen cappuccino. You won't regret it!
Christian BorgesDecember 7, 2016I've loved this place for over 20 years, and it still doesn't disappoint. In. An area I'm not particularly fond of, this is "old school NYC" at it's core. Good, reliable food, piano playing, reliable.
Vanessa VergaraJuly 10, 2016Try the prix fixe menu and order trout 👌🏻👌🏻 and belgian endives salad 😊🇫🇷👏🏻

Angie Massie KhotpalNovember 11, 2018Crab cake was superb... dessert was on point. Fantastic live piano music. We were among latest dinner guests, no coffee. That was the only disappointment.
Candelario TamezDecember 13, 2016Try to come when they have live music, one of my favorite restaurants in NYC... Try the Duck, Salmon, Onion Soup....

CompassMay 15, 2014Jean-Claude Baker named this classy comfort food restaurant after his mother. The Southern Fried Chicken and anything chocolate are reminiscent of home.
heather pinkFebruary 3, 2013The inside artwork and chandeliers are quite beautiful. Great pianist. Skip appetizers and order the roast duck.
Kuo-yu LiangDecember 24, 2019Excellent food and service. Beautiful ambience and some scandalous decor.
Ben GaspariniAugust 14, 2016Come here during restaurant week, order the classics and get tipsy on a bottle.
Absolutely have the crab cakes. They are amazing. And come see Eric play on Tuesdays and Wednesdays... old standards you've never heard before.
JudiOctober 31, 2010A theater district MUST! Fabulous food and piano player/singer 's to die for............be greeted by Jean Claude and step into the warmth of New York..........
- Wendy CrispellJanuary 10, 2014My favorite spot for French comfort food with glitz and old style glamour.
Pâté is fab, enough for two and love the crab cakes.
Christian LiistroJanuary 5, 2011Excellent chinese ravioli but take care of your coats!! They will ask you 2$ each on top of an already expensive bill...
Alissa VillarrealJuly 19, 2011A great place to go to feel like a real housewife and enjoy great atmosphere with friends. Read more
Will ArnoneMarch 28, 2013Boudin noir - Mon Dieu! But only for very serious sausage devotees. Not for the faint of heart bien sur.
Great romantic place. And the piano player is great.
Daniel SilvaSeptember 3, 2011The Escargot is just divine!! Excelent piano music and 20's Paris atmosphere.
- Chris Moltisanti mentions he is going to take Adriana here on 3rd season of The Sopranos.
- Carl AltenaMay 5, 2012Do not order beer! It is served in a wineglas! Do not comment! It will end all servecing mind of the waiter in blue.
Artie PavlovOctober 2, 2011Metro d was polite but very demeaning and unpleasant... Live music though!
