    Chef Lisa has outdone herself. You can fill yourself up on tasty appetizers, not to miss the mushroom soup. xxx

    Amazing oysters and drinks! Get the Plymouth Rock Pot au Feu aka chicken confit! Great spot, great staff! Need to try the rest of the menu!

    Great date spot, probably best to grab a reservation. Try the strip steak, so much flavor!

    Menu is very French. Menu changes regularly and can be hit or miss. The decor is outstanding and worth a visit, a little Paris in Brooklyn. Bring a date, sip champagne and enjoy.

    The space is gorgeous - every detail is considered and beautiful. Great staff. The negronis are great. The food is good but not outstanding. Would come back if in the neighborhood.

    The cutest french bistro this side of Paris (in Greenpoint, no less). Go for cocktails and cute datey or girls night vibes, skip the brunch.

    Veggie options are highlights - loved the summer bean salad. Gets very loud but fun place. Drinks are fantastic

    Good steak. Good bread. Good veggies (tiny portions). Good cocktails. Avoid the giant oysters and beware of the tricky bathroom door locks. 😮

    Order the crudo and ricotta dumpling appetizers, the pike and the fruit tart. Great custom cocktails too!

    Everything is really well done, the service, food, decor. Lovely experience all around. Best early morning (8am) breakfast ever when flooded in light.

    The Bitches say: B+. Interesting, elevated brunch fare in the heart of Greenpoint from the Maison Premiere team. Don’t skip the mushroom toast or pastry selection. Read more

    Excellent wine list from France and beyond. Ask the bartenders for recommendations as they are very friendly and will let you try before you buy

    Great brunch options. Hen of The Woods Mushrooms were delicious. The Bloody Mary has quite a spicy kick!

    Very cute interior. Much better than what used to be there. The food was pretty good tho pretty heavy. The service was a bit too eager to the point of bothersome. Good for dates.

    The smaller plates were, in particularly the veggies, were the highlights. Skip the mains, get a ton of small plates and share.

    The hip little sister to Maison Premiere. Romantic spot for date night, or fun to sit outdoors for brunch and people-watching.

    The telegenic, French-inspired, New Orleans-esque neo-bistro (tldr; Instagram-friendly eatery) across from McCarren Park has one of the best sidewalk cafes in the neighborhood

    Food was excellent, however prepare for painfully slow service (40min for apps, another 30min for entrees) and a restaurant so loud that you can't hear either the waitstaff or your partner.

    What a difference. First time since chef Lisa Giffen is no longer at the helm and you can tell. Overcooked food, wrong orders etc. Too bad.

    This place is more atmosphere then substance. Mediocre food, slow service, and rude staff. If anything grab a coffee and pastry to go.

    Worst meal, bad service. Food was bland, vibe was off and they tried to give us two checks. So disappointed because their sister restaurant Mansion Premiere is about the best thing ever.
