I was able to make reservations at the last minute on a Sat night despite July being a very touristy month in the city. We arrived early and an outdoor table was just finishing up so we were sat within a handful of minutes. Beautiful evening to sit outdoors and the people-watching was good but not bothersome. We ordered Escargot, crispy artichokes, french onion soup, the duck and the steak au poive, all of which were excellent (the duck was very nice). Despite the variety of wine available we were enjoying cocktails and our water glasses were constantly refilled. The service was very good as well and the maitre d was also very pleasant. Very solid performance and would love to revisit at a later date.

Both were excellent, and the bread served with them was especially delicious. Service was a little slow but attentive. Such a great little UWS spot for cocktails and a bite. We will definitely be back!

The duck was cooked perfectly, rendered and crispy while remaining to temp Staff were helpful when needed, didn't constantly check in. I'd call it "French style" where you should ask if you need because they don't coddle you and constantly check in, which I prefer. It's a bit small but that's neither good nor bad, just what it is. The "casual fine dining" they're going for is the perfect description. I felt neither over nor under dressed in a button up short sleeve and a nice pair of jeans. Nothing stuffy or pretentious like some UWS places can be.

I mean it's drenched in butter... it's obviously going to be delish. the fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and layered in salt. weird to have to ask for mayo but they did bring it out. - the, albeit pretty, veggie sides I felt were unnecessary and borderline cold so unclear on how much they really added the meal - the Tarte Tatin à la mode was a win around the table. the apple melted in your mouth. the Poire belle Hélène was good but paled in comparison
