    FABULOUS. From beginning to end our meal was exceptional. The service was wonderful during a busy holiday season. Our server was attentive and kind, answered all of our questions. He helped us narrow down the menu to what we would enjoy the most. The restaurant was busy but very beautifully decorated. Our food was absolutely delicious. I had a lobster pasta dish that was a 10/10.

    Poulet roti

    Came here to take out a friend for his birthday. Plenty of reservations left for Sunday lunch. It's the brunch menu during this time. The complimentary baguette and butter are good, and the butter is more salted than I remember but not a bad thing. Tuna carpaccio was good but a little too salty. I got the chicken (poulet roti) which wasn't bad but I don't crave it. It comes with gravy that's a nice addition for the chicken and pomme puree. Friend got the steak frites which also comes with its type of gravy which was peppery. He didn't like it much, but the steak was decent. I had the NA espresso martini which was good but I guess vodka is key to the flavor because something felt flat for me. Ended with a basque cheesecake with caramel - this was delicious.

    La Grande Boucherie was simply amazing. I was there celebrating a friend's graduation and it did not disappoint. We started with the French onion soup, which is super popular here, and I highly recommend it. Also got the Caesar salad, tartare, and grilled octopus for appetizers. Out of those, the octopus was my favorite. For the main we went with the Plateau de Boucher. One thing I do want to mention, because it was an issue, is that some of the meat came out overcooked initially. We had to send part of the New York strip back. When it came back out, they seemed to rush it because it was cold inside. That said, it was still good, and they comped us for the trouble, so it didn't take away from the overall experience.

    I loved this place and had to go back another day. The vibe makes you feel like you are in France. I ordered a French 75 (they had well known cocktail specials from a number of different countries playing in FIFA). And I had the eggs benedict. Food was yummy, service was good. Great spot for pics.

    LE DELICE DE BOURGOGNE

    Came in on a Sunday around noon and was pleasantly surprised to find no wait at all. We chose to sit inside, though the outdoor seating looked charming as well. Service was prompt, and we were seated immediately. My only complaint is that the table for two was extremely small, and the seating area felt quite cramped. Throughout the meal, I was bumped into several times by people passing by, which made the experience a bit less comfortable. As for the food, it was very good overall. The steak was outstanding and easily the highlight of the meal. The Bourgogne was decent, though not particularly memorable. The décor felt fresh, stylish, and unmistakably French, creating a lovely atmosphere that complemented the dining experience.

    I hate to disparage a business I try to post positive reviews The service was incredibly non existent We wanted for a waiter for over 15 minutes Cocktails ordered before dinner came when our entree was served The mouse fograis was the only good thing The fuck was overcooked tough and dry The artichoke appetizer was cold and difficult to chew The apricot claufoutis was underwhelming

    Walking into La Grande Boucherie feels like stepping into a Parisian brasserie that somehow landed in Midtown Manhattan. Half the experience is the food. The other half is simply looking around. The dining room is gorgeous. Wood paneling, café-style tables, Art Nouveau details, greenery overhead... every corner feels thoughtfully designed. It's one of those restaurants where you catch yourself looking up between bites. The menu sticks to the French classics, and that's exactly what you want. French onion soup? Of course. Croque Monsieur? Croque Madame? Steak frites? They're all here. No need to reinvent the wheel. I ordered the steak sandwich with caramelized onions, Gruyère, horseradish aioli, and an au jus for dipping, all tucked inside a freshly baked baguette. It was excellent. The steak was flavorful, the Gruyère added just the right richness, and the horseradish aioli gave it a little kick without taking over. The au jus tied everything together, and the fresh-cut fries on the side didn't hurt either. Service was friendly, prompt, and efficient. Exactly what you'd hope for in a busy restaurant like this. Overall, La Grande Boucherie understands that dining out is about more than just the food. The room is every bit as memorable as the meal, and together they create one of the more enjoyable dining experiences in Midtown. If you're looking for classic French food in a setting that fully commits to the part, this place is an easy recommendation.

    Great ambiance! Great service! Best octopus in New York! I actually came the previous day but they were out of octopus. I told the waiter to save 2 for me tomorrow and when I sat down, from across the room, he held up 2 fingers signifying he remembered I wanted 2 octopus! It by far was the most tender octopus I've had in New York. I plan on coming back for escargot and filet!

    I came here with a college friend for brunch on a Wednesday morning- firstly I was struck by how beautiful the interior of the building the restaurant was situated in, which lent to a wonderful eating atmosphere. My only complaint is that occasionally it was difficult to flag down a server since the seating area was so big. We ended up ordering the eggs Benedict and salmon toast to share. Both were very delicious, but I was shocked at how much I enjoyed the salmon toast - it was very fresh and the flavors were punchy with the acidity added (I'm assuming lemon). Very refreshing and not too heavy for those looking for a nice bite. The hot tea, though it was from a tea bag, was wonderful and delicious as well. Would recommend as a lovely little brunch place in NY, and would love to try their dinner menu sometime when I'm back.

    Bisque de homard & Mousse de Foie Gras
    Serapina C.

    Started off my NYC steakhouse journey with La Grande Boucherie and had a palatable steak dinner with friends. I will note that when I was looking for a restaurant, I noticed a lot of suspicious 5-stars from people who literally have never written any other reviews before, so would take their glowing reviews with a grain of salt. Regardless, I enjoyed my experience and our server was very helpful with recommending the meats and side pairings. Treated ourselves to some mocktails to start - I got the Non La Vie En Rose, which was perfectly bittersweet. For hors d'oeuvres, we got the mousse de foie gras and bisque de homard. The duck liver was lovely, but the cherries that came with it were DIVINE. The sweet and savory combo with the french onion and cherry, the velvety texture of the duck liver - they were onto something with that pairing. For the star of the show, we ordered the 2pp Chateaubriand Pour Deux, which honestly was enough for the three of us. They didn't have the bone marrow, so we doubled up on the pommes puree. The meat itself was alright, perhaps not as juicy as I'd hoped but it was cooked to a solid medium (as we'd ordered), with the crust nice and crisp. And of course for dessert, we got the mont blanc and basque cheesecake - they were both great desserts, but imo the basque cheesecake didn't seem any different from a regular cheesecake. The interior is decked out with these towering ceilings and warm ambient lighting, very much that grand luxurious atmosphere for a fancy steak dinner.

    My party of 5 made reservations on this Friday night at 6pm. We had to catch a concert at Radio City Music Hall. Arriving 10 minutes early, it was really not cool at all to make us wait while we see a slew of people after us get seated. We were perplexed as to why we had to keep waiting. An explanation would have been nice. Very professional. I had to go back to ask 3x. They kept telling me, "in another 10 minutes" but never came over to give is an update. Since you guys impose a $25 pp for no shows, how about we charge you for seating us 20 minutes late. Interior: - from the pics I thought this restaurant was grand looking but it is actually tight and cramp. The Bad: - I always look forward to the bread basket. Bread was cold and hard. - The app my sister and BIL ordered, Crispy Baby Artichokes was hella salty. Our waitress took note and said she will rely it back to her manager. And that was it. - One of the bus boys placed the wrong dish in front of us and we told him it's for the other person and he just walked away. Like really?? Fine, we'll just do it ourselves, don't put yourself out. - My son ordered the duck. $45 for two small pieces. Super disappointed that it was tough and way overcooked. - My mocktail came to the table in the middle of the meal, I almost forgot I ordered one. - Obscene prices for tiny portions. - The host (guy), you guys need to hire one that can smile. - Overall service (no comment). The Good: - The Foie Gras was excellent. You guys need to take some lessons from Balthazar.

    Steak Tartare
    Gordon Y.

    Cuisine: 8 Service: 8 Decor: 8 Value: 5 Overall: 7 Fancy French bistro? Upscale steakhouse? Well, the prices say this is definitely a high end restaurant reserved for special occasions unless you have enough money to burn. If you are willing to spend, then there is a very good meal to be found here. Their porterhouse and ribeye steaks are both excellent. Great sear on the outside, while the beef stays tender and juicy. The quality certainly stands up to most of the famous steakhouses in NYC. On the French side of things, their Steak Tartare is tasty as can be. Escargot, Foie Gras, Mussels, and Steak Frites are all delicious too. For dessert, the traditional Crème Brûlée is a great choice. Decor and service are both fantastic. If you like your steakhouse with a touch of French, then you have found the place, as long as money is no object.

    Oysters
    Nina L.

    Finally got the chance to try this chic French restaurant that I've been wanting to try! We decided to just stop by for some appetizers and drinks, and even those didn't disappoint! We ended up getting a cheeseboard and some oysters and the drinks were also great. Service was a little slow and it seemed a little crammed as seating is super close to each other. Would love to go back next time and try dinner service, we just didn't get a chance to this time because we were short on time!

It was dark when we entered the coffee shop but an ajar door gave way to the bar. The decor is a homage to the works of Nikola Tesla, which can be seen in the subtle electric theme throughout the space and the naming of the cocktails. The space isn't too large - the bar and stools take up most of the space but they also have some booths/tables. The place looks great. The cocktail menu is very creative - I got one of their seasonal mixes that was actually two drinks in one. The main cocktail was meant to be sipped first and they provided a small glass of beer to be sipped after. The name escapes me but it was very good. Since we had cocktails at dinner, we only stayed for one round. Service was good, and overall I enjoyed my time at Patent Pending. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu.

The mint Moroccan tea gave the drink a cool, refreshing taste on every sip. I also tried the Silver Screen, the closest drink I could find to an old fashioned. It was interesting, there was definitely a hint of a buttery taste. Overall a really balanced bourbon drink. I walked in and found room at the standing tables. A bar seat eventually opened up but I was already on my second drink by then. Definitely make reservations if you're planning a visit!

    I stopped by Clemente Bar with a friend who was staying at a nearby hotel. I had never been to…read moreEleven Madison Park before and wanted to check it out, not realizing at first that Clemente Bar is a separate concept from the restaurant. We walked in without a reservation around 6:20 p.m., and they were able to accommodate us at a shared table until 7:15. The menu surprised me a bit. Since I associated the address with Eleven Madison Park, I wasn't expecting to see items like wings stuffed with sausage, which were done in partnership with Jungsik. We ordered those along with the mushroom burger and asked them to cut the burger in half for us. The cocktail menu was creative and a little intimidating, with unconventional ingredients like cream cheese and green curry. I went with a fruity Hendrick's-based drink, and my friend ordered the spicy green curry martini. Both were good. Mine didn't taste very strong, but it also wasn't overly sweet because there was enough bitterness to balance it out. The green curry martini was more adventurous but still worked. Service was mixed. There was a woman standing near us, so we tried ordering food with her, but she seemed hesitant to come over. Maybe she wasn't a server or was newer. For drinks, she brought over someone more seasoned, who quickly helped guide us based on our preferred taste profiles. Her suggestions were very good. The mushroom burger was the highlight for me. It was a little salty, but the crispy mushroom and soft bun were a great combination. I honestly wished I had more than half. The wings were okay. They were crispy on the outside and juicy inside, but coated in a Dorito-like powder that made them very messy. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'd come back, especially for the mushroom burger.

A special shoutout to Abel, our server, who made excellent recommendations based on our flavor preferences and helped us discover some incredible drinks. The hospitality, attention to detail, and overall atmosphere were top-notch. Can't wait to come back!
