Biggest overpriced dump of a restaurant in the city. Nothing but loud spoiled wanna be Kardashians clientele. Food is horrible WOULD NOT feed it to a rat . Only wish I could give negative 5 stars but 1 is as low as I can. Service was disastrous and completely unfriendly. I think you can have a better experience in a Taco Bell ! read more

They discriminated against me & my sisters. We had reservations & our delayed but they said come back after 11:35 the bouncer and manager. We came back and he lied about it...then we met girls who invited us to their table. As we're walking in the bouncer got in our face and screamed & pushed his hand in front of me. & said we're not allowed to enter even though a guy walked out & brought out random girls in. They also had no reservation but they were white & allowed more than 20 white girls in. They were discriminating. After the manager got involved we explained but he lied about it all & she refused to hear us out. & sided with him it's clear this business Does not like women of color. Never again will I support maison. The manager & bouncer were so rude & unprofessional. Do not come unless you're white. read more

Second time here and we had a BLAST!! SUch a fun atmosphere and Camille took care of us so well. MUST VISIT.

Recently dined here and wow. Food was stunningly plated. Flavor profiles were so well paired. The ambiance is super chic and elegant. Our waiter, Naoufal really put the cherry on top of our experience here. He was so nice and helpful. Always checked on us to make sure we were happy. Cocktails were also delicious! Had the Les Clandestines (not pictured) and it did not disappoint. Will definitely be back read more

Came with my friends and was hosted by David! great food and entertainment from their in-house magician, Lau.

The vibe , the ambiance and the service was great . My only complaint was the horrible seafood tower for $390 USD. It has dried oysters , shrimps the size of peanuts and king crab which tasted fishy. Seafood towers are a must for me and something i always order and this was by daye the most disgusting one I have ever had . They served mayo with the king crab. No seafood sauce and only a vinaigrette for the oysters no horse radish. For that price there is no excuse also the steak tartare was just that . No bread or chips to eat it with. You come here for the fun and dancing not for the food read more

Amazing place for fine dining french food . Amazing staff and best place to party. You start with delicious french Culinary experience and you end up dancing in a fancy french cabaret atmosphere. Can't wait to come back next week read more

Had a lovely time at Maison Close. We went on a July 4th and it was pretty empty. We got great service and the food was delicious. Would definitely go again. Our server Camille was lovely. read more

Camille made our visit so wonderful! As did Alex the magician they have. Will be coming back and would recommend

Have been desperately looking for a good french place and found it! Such a cute ambiance and the truffle fries are *chef's kiss* Will be back :) Camille was our waiter! So sweet and accommodating, wonderful service read more

Such a fun party place!!! Went here for my friend's birthday party. We really enjoyed the steak and the drinks were amazing! It was so fun to see the servers turn into dancers and join the show! Amazing service, food, and atmosphere :) read more

Maison Close Restaurant - servers dancing on the tables - French Near Me - New York, New York

Was able to get last minute reservations at Maison Close this past Friday. Have been hearing a lot of great things so we decided to go for a girl's night dinner (3 Girls). Our reservation was at 10 PM but we got there around 9:20 PM and decided to grab some drinks at the bar. 2 espresso martinis and 1 glass of white wine ran us about $75... After we got seated we ordered some apps. We got the Plateau de Fruits de Mer (Small Seafood Tower) and the Gnocchis aux Champignons de saison. Both were very good but the gnocchi was a small portion. For our main meal we decided to share the Linguine a la Truffe, Cote de Boeuf with a side of truffle fries and creamed spinach. The steak we got cooked medium was delicious, especially with the sauces they paired with it. Only recommendations we have are more sauce needed to be added to the linguine because it was very dry and the creamed spinach needed some work. We did not love the taste at all. During our meal they gave us some bread and butter, the butter was delicious. We continued the night with some cocktails, I got the Chouchout (watered down), and then we decided to get 3 bottles of Veuve Clicquot Rose. Each bottle was $280.00, and they brought out the bottle like they were serving us water. For a table of 3 girls getting these bottles there should have been a little more effort in how they brought it out to us. Not saying we needed a show but at least to be more attentive with the way they were serving an expensive bottle of champagne. Some other issues we had was 1. An unpleasant encounter with the front desk host/bouncer but the manager (idk her name) was very quick to assess the situation and she was super helpful. 2. At the end of the night when paying the bill, I left a tip and the server made me add more money because "it wasn't enough tip". I was having a good night and didn't want to ruin my time with his behavior so I let it slide and gave him more money. Mind you our server half the time was dressing up and serving other tables their expensive bottle packages. Would I be back? Probably. The atmosphere reminded me of a Miami restaurant/club vibe so I loved that a lot. There aren't a lot of places like this near us since we live in Jersey. There was also a dancer that came out like twice while we were eating which was super cool. Food and entertainment was good. I will give them that but, if they work on the staff we would be more likely to return back more often. read more

Very mediocre food and drinks for the price. Nothing memorable. The service was lovely and attentive until the manager started aggressively pushing us to stay for the brunch party (we were there for the first sitting on Saturday). read more

Had a great time here with my friends, the vibe was sexy and elegant. The drinks were really good and the champagne show was fun. The staff were dressed sharp almost like models. Our server Naoufal was amazing. His wine knowledge was impressive and everything he suggested was top notch. This will def be our new weekend spot. read more

I am literally obsessed with this place. French cuisine is my favorite, so every city I attend I try to find one French restaurant. Maison Close exceeded my expectations. The food was exceptional. They were sold out of the hamburger and LG croissant du homard, but this allowed us to try several smaller items. The escargot come already out of their shell, which I prefer in comparison to shelled. Every drink was better than expected. We didn't like the flan style dessert, I can't remember the exact name. The avocado toast was only ok because the style of the bread. The lobster croissant was more than amazing: it was full of flavor and almost creamy textured from thee butter of the croissant. I would recommend that fully. Thé Tarte Tatin was good; however, I would taste even better if thé tarte came hot. All in all, we'll be coming back every time we come to the city. The atmosphere was amazing as well as our server, Gregory. read more

I went to this restaurant for my birthday with a small group of friends in September. We chose the 10 PM late seating for dinner on a Sat night, and brought a birthday cake that we wanted to share later on in the evening. The night started great - until we were blindsided with an extremely expensive bottle of champagne that we didn't order/was poured without our consent, and then were stuck with the bill. As someone who has worked in restaurants, hospitality, and with luxury clientele, I would never recommend this establishment and would NEVER come back. We were seated promptly and orders taken quickly. We ordered 1 round of cocktails, 3-4 appetizers and $80 bottles of rose to share. We were planning on having a night out here, but aren't people who order flashy club bottle service or anything in the thousands. About 30 minutes into dinner, my fiance asked if we could order a bottle of Don Julio or Casamigos tequila for the table assuming it would be $300-400 at most, and was taken into a different room to "see options." Once he went there, servers tried to force him into ordering a bottle of Ace of Spades in order to order a bottle of tequila. We were not planning on spending anywhere near that amount and definitely not on champagne, so he declined and wasn't allowed to order the tequila... already quite strange. We continue on with our night, ordering more of the $80 rose (the only other alcohol we ordered for the rest of the night), and then the servers come out with a Magnum bottle of the same rose asking if we wanted that. We asked what the price was and it was $300+, so we declined and told them we were fine with out current selection. Again, we are not trying to rack up a massive bill Now our night has progressed without any other incident, we ordered more rose throughout the evening, and it's 1:20 AM. My birthday cake that we had brought still hadn't been brought out, and the restaurant closes at 2 AM. One of my friends asked about it, and the restaurant must've forgotten because immediately after that it was brought out. Following that, the servers make a huge show of pouring champagne in my and my friends mouths immediately following the cake. We hadn't ordered champagne but having been to multiple nightlife establishments like Lavo, Bounce, the former Bagatelle, etc, this is something that those places do when someone is celebrating an occasion to create a show. At this point it's 1:40 AM and the restaurant is starting to clear out, so we ask for the bill. To expedite, my fiance gives his credit card and asks them to bring the bill for him to sign for our group. Imagine our shock when I see that bottle they had just made a show of pouring was $1350 and is on our bill?! We hadn't ordered that, to be honest I don't even like champagne and wouldn't have ordered champagne to begin with (aka why we had rose the whole night) and they poured it directly into our mouths without even asking?! Also at 1:30 AM, why would I order a bottle of alcohol at that price point, when the place is clearing out, lights are about to be turned on, and we are literally about to leave? I asked the server right there to take the bottle off and they go "you had a minimum and this bottle hits that minimum charge." Actually no, we had hit the minimum charge required before that bottle, and it's illegal/fraudulent to force an item onto a customer's bill without their express consent. Not once over the course of the evening was anything about this mentioned, and no one from my group ordered anything separate from me. We disputed the bill with the server, and he refused to take the item off. We then disputed with AmEx, but because my fiancé had already given his card, it looked like we had ordered that bottle and they refused to credit us. I mentioned this situation to my coworkers at the office and one of them says "oh that place is known for doing that". I was speechless. In summary, it appears this is a regular occurrence and unless you want to be swindled out of a significant amount of money, AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! read more

Music and entertainment was great. They didn't have our reservation ready when we arrived so they asked us to wait near the bar area when you could see a majority of tables were open. Then an overly slicked backed hair man named "telio" rudely came into my party and screamed at us to be quiet. And he tried to explain that this was a restaurant .......... approximately 15 seconds after servers delivered candles to a rowdy party. His tone was so disrespectful and dismissive that I'm sure he repeatedly treats paying customers like this. We ordered two bottles of moet and didn't receive sparklers after specifically requesting for a milestone birthday. Food was tasty regardless of the experience read more

100% recommend for the best customer service and French food in NY. Arnaud K and the entire team went above and beyond to make our experience wonderful! From the beautiful menus, stylish and attentive staff, delicious food, and the burlesque show - it was memorable night! I look forward to visiting again! read more

Very nice French place with sophisticated cuisine. Excellent service and a cool ambiance.

Service was amazing! Drinks were strong. Magician was entertaining. Camilla was a great waitress. Highly recommend her

Lovely modern upscale French restaurant in every way, BUT: then the house music started, and grew so loudb soon we couldn't hear ourselves across our small table. Large groups of young twenty-somethings arrived and began ordering lots of drinks. It killed the atmosphere of an expensive restaurant (at that point, the $82 sole became an overpriced regret). The food is excellent but it's not a dance club. Decide what you want to be and be consistent to your vision. Right now, it's two places under a roof. read more

Great food and nice service! Geoffrey was a great server! I would come back again! The ambiance is a great vibe read more

Definitely worth the money! read more

Have come here 6x in an attempt to embrace the "scene" as my friends frequent this place and we were all a fan of the old bagatelle. 1) There is a noticeable sewage smell upon entry / lingering by the bar. This was noticed each time. 2) The air does not turn on. 3) ordered Dover Sole, Steak, escargot, (amongst other things) all taste great but always seems to come out cold. 4) show up 10-15 min prior to your reservation, check-in and elect to have drinks at the bar but you will get grilled by the manager? Asking if you have a reservation, even if you're obviously decked out and ready to spend money you will be grilled as though you might not not have a reservation. 5) prepare to have the table cleared while you are eating, the check dumped in front of your face and not given 2 minutes to clear the check. They also false promise "shots on the house" to get you off the table and do not deliver, this is after spending 3k + on a bill. 6) the layout is horrible- the bathrooms are unisex and in the same corner as the bar and the kitchen, waiters have to battle through people to get the cold food to the table. That being said, the drinks are good, the place looks pretty, and the entertainment is cool but I would save the big bucks for better restaurants in the city. the average bill between 2 people runs about 500... so visit at your disappointment. read more

DEF GO HERE!! You will not regret it! Great for a big dinner or a bday dinner. Jack is the best waiter, hopefully you get him! 10/10 would go back! read more

Very welcoming place bartenders are especially skilled and generous. Reservation or not you'll have a nice time lights and the staff are good night mix read more

I don't think the people writing the 5 star reviews are real patrons. Maybe more like staff or friends to the staff. This place is a 1-star and with good reason. The food was not worth the money on any level. It's not fine dining at all. The scene is a die hard try for something from 10 years ago like bagatelle. I don't see it lasting or staying open. read more

Super fun, cute place. Beautiful design, very elegant and Art Deco. You will feel like a old Hollywood celeb here. Jean franscois is a great bartender! read more

I haven't had a bad meal in a long time and the meal was atrocious. There was a group of 6 of us and all of us didn't finish our meal. Even the French fries were disgusting. While the restaurant was apologetic and took the main courses off our bill, don't waste your money or time. read more

Fun spot to go with friends for a night sexy and chic . Food was delicious and the staff was very attentive ! Will be back soon

Francois slays. He's extremely charming which is endearing and looks like Jason Stratham. Everything he recommended was delicious.

This is a beautiful place but sadly terrible service. The managers are rude and disrespectful. The hostess don't do there job right. No energy from the staff for a place that is supposed to be a place to have a great time which they failed to do so. I highly do not recommend this place. read more
