Restaurant Week in New York is basically my version of the Super Bowl, and Maison Passerelle absolutely delivered. I started with the tomato and watermelon gazpacho, and I can confidently say this is now the standard I'll judge every gazpacho against. That perfect pink ref concoction. For my entree, I stepped outside my comfort zone with the fish and chips. I rarely order fried food, but if you're going to splurge, this is the place to do it. The fish was juicy juicy juicy. The real surprise, though, was sitting at the chef's counter. Everyone wants a free show rolled lunch. read more

The service was excellent. The food was excellent, but the portions were small and expensive- even for Summer Lunch Restaurant Week or the Lunch Prix-Fixe menu. Pomme Frites were $14+on the regular menus and equal to any good restaurant fries -which would accompany a burger or another dish gratis- in ANY other restaurant. The restaurant ambience was a little confusing- really lacked a theme and hard to describe. Make sure you go in on the Broadway entrance and to avoid the Wall Street entrance and the associated gauche boutique you must walk through to get to a side door of the restaurant. Unique to this restaurant and have not seen anything like it in the U.S., France, or French provinces outside of France. Torn between a 3 star or 4 star. For tourists, 4 star. For NYers, 3 star. read more

While in NY, Maison Passerelle was the restaurant to visit when I found out the that Chef Gregory Gourdet from Kann in Portland Oregon opened it. I loved Kann and was excited to experience Maison Passerelle. I love that they make allergy friendly food so I was able to confidently order delicious food. I sat at the chef's counter and it was a great experience to see the staff work and ordered from the fire fixe menu. I started with their Sweet potato and Peanut soup. I was a little hesitant as I am not a huge peanut lover, but this soup was so good. Next I ordered the Cane Syrup Glazed Duck with Diri ak sos pwa. It was so devious. Who knew rice and beans could be too good. For dessert I ordered the Sticky toffee rice pudding and again, so delicious. It was so much food, that I took the leftovers to go. I also ordered a cocktail and the first one that was suggested, was not tasty. They brought out what I actually ordered, which was a St. Germain Spritz. I loved, loved my experience here. Everyone was friendly, helpful and warm. Not to mention the restaurant is beautiful, dimmed and intimate. read more

I finally got to try Maison Passerelle for restaurant week dinner. Being a fan of Gregory's I had high expectations. The restaurant is beautiful with the service matching. All the staff were kind, helpful and knowledgeable. The food itself fell flat and hope that their regular menu is better. I got the prawn appetizer, steak frites, and strawberry pavlova. The savory dishes were heavy handed on the salt and nothing that stood out as amazing. It was also odd that they combined the fries, we ordered 3 steak dishes but only 2 fry containers came out. The server explained that's how the kitchen did it and we didn't ask further questions. Overall, it seems that their regular menu is better. read more

I would recommend this place for a special occasion for sure. We ate everything that was served. Well done and so delicious. read more

Exquisite fusion french cuisine Maison Passerelle is part of the French department store Printemps in FD. It is convenient located off the subway and pretty easy to find. The luxurious ambiance and fine dining level service made it befitting to be an extension of Printemp's space. I appreciated the uniqueness of the menu items on the prix fixe dinner which I consider a great value fine dining option knowing pricing of similar restaurants these days and even had generous portions making it a steal! I ordered citrus cured kampachi (oh so refreshing and perfect for the summer; favorite appetizer ), cane syrup glazed duck (tasty and flavorful), strawberry rhubarb petit gateau (very strawberry forward which I loved but the shell was a bit hard to cut through but still my favorite dessert here), and the good twin (great zero proof wine) to drink. They also gave us a shot of vegan pho broth which was so amazing I could hardly tell it was vegan and was sad they only gave a small shot of and rice and beans for the table which helped to fill out the dishes. I also tried other dishes from the group: daily oysters (standard good oysters), green asparagus salad (nice and crunchy but kind of standard), poached maine lobster (tasted like spring with such delicate flavors coming together; it was my favorite main course), grilled aged rib eye (you could definitely taste the smoky coffee flavor at the end; only recommend to coffee flavor lovers), spring herb sorbet (great for a hot day), coconut chiboust (was too full to try), dark chocolate cake (yum). Strongly recommend! read more

wow - I am stunned. First of all the service and ambiance was a 10/10. The dining room is furnished well and has dim lighting. The staff is warm and the way they take true care of their guests was special. The beet salad, burger, fries and ice cream sandwich. All dishes were unique in their own way. The burger blew me away. I could easily say that this is the best burger i've had in NYC to date. I am from LA where it's a big burger market and so it's been hard to find something that tops my experiences at home BUT this is it! The bun is brioche and perfectly soft and warm. The meat is wagyu which you know we can't get any better than that!! The mix of the caramelized onions, edam cheese and fermented chili sauce... it had so much flavor and I was thoroughly impressed. The fries were crispy and the dipping sauces were to die for. Both were great- hard to choose which was better. If anyone is looking for a perfect burger then this is your spot. Also, the chocolate ice cream sandwich was a light, tasty touch to end a perfect meal. No notes!!!! read more

Came back for dinner a second time and had a less than stellar experience. While the duck remains very good (definitely order this), we didn't really like anything else we ordered, which included the kampachi starter (tasted fishy and not high quality fish) and the Cajun type risotto starter (forget the name but felt the rice was too hard and undercooked), the lobster spaghetti (pasta was undercooked and the lobster was overcooked), and the pikiliz (too sour for my personal taste). As for service, they forgot about our two entrees. After waiting for 40-50 min after our appetizers, we asked someone to check on our entrees. Turned out they forgot them so they had to fire them and we waited maybe another 10-15 min. On the plus side, someone came by and deeply apologized and said they would comp our meal. Our bill came and we were charged for everything. I paid it then my husband reminded me they should've at least taken off the entrees so we went back and told them and they said they would reverse the payment and comp the whole meal (there was some miscommunication). Over all, I'm sad to say that as excited as I was about the place given Top Chef, I won't be returning. But if you do come, get the duck! read more

Great new restaurant in the Printemps store! It was a little tricky to find the entrance from inside since you need to walk through the back door of a bar, so just ask the host to show you the way. We visited for lunch and ordered the bannann peze, pan roasted bass, burger, and fries. Everything was cooked well. I loved the chili herb relish and pikliz as well as the creole ketchup that came with the fries - the flavors were so punchy and delicious! If I had one note, it would be that the skin of the bass wasn't crispy at all. But the cook on the fish and especially the scallop in that dish was 10/10. Bonus was seeing Gregory Gourdet in the kitchen! read more

Maison Passerelle - French Near Me - New York, New York

A pretty busy spot on a beautiful building, this is the restaurant attached to Printemps. There is also a nice bar next door. We went for restaurant week and sat at the counter because our table was running over. The menu is French diaspora inspired with some heavy south east Asian and Creole flavors. The duck curry was a highlight. Restaurant week was good value, but the regular prix fixe priced seems quite high for what it looks like. read more

A great option for gluten free people. Although not directly advertised, the entire menu is gluten-free. A bit pricy and a prefix menu which limits the options a little. But we all had a great time and everything was pretty delicious. The only item that was not for me was the lobster and pasta dish. The chicken and the duck were highlights of the main course. The staff was great and helpful. And the ambiance was great as well. We did not try the bar but it looked like a nice place to hang out for drinks. read more

Maison Passerelle - French Near Me - New York, New York

Maison Passarelle is the cool new restaurant inside the beautiful Printemps building downtown. The restaurant is eclectic with bright colored tiles and stand out chandeliers, a great spot for striking conversations over a small dinner. We visited for restaurant week - and apparently got some new testers on the menu. Food is inspired by French colonial cuisines - lots of Thai, south east asian, New Orleans, etc. The dishes were tasty. Some flavours were a bit boring compared to other places in NY but overall pretty good. I really enjoyed the coconut salad, the duck curry and the olive oil cake. Service still working out some kinks with servers repeating asks or going to take away glassware before being served etc but nothing major. read more

On the first floor of Printemps in FiDi, this beautiful restaurant serves gourmet Haitian food with French flair. It is surprisingly easy to get a reservation here considering the quality and uniqueness of the cuisine. The grand dining room features green couches, luminous stained glass, warm lighting, and leafy tile floors. The waiters with matching green neckties provide white glove service. The Kokoye punch is a standout cocktail featuring clarified coconut milk, Glenlivet, rum, and oolong tea. The amuse bouche of tomato soup with coconut milk and pickled jalapeño awakens the senses. The sweet potato soup was a surprisingly good starter with cinnamon, ginger, and pickled apple. The ocean trout had a crispy skin served with plantain purée and ti malice, a tangy Haitian hot sauce. The coconut chiboust was a memorable dessert served with toasted coconut sorbet. read more

Their recent restaurant week prix fixe options were decent. However, withholding à la carte options on purpose was not. If not for questions to a waiter from adjacent diners, I never would have known (far too late) that their regular menu was available after all. They even had the nerve to restrict menu options on Saturday specifically, after failing to disclose the a availability. read more

We made a late reservation and from the moment we arrived everything felt welcoming and effortless. The hostess, Lola, greeted us with a warm smile and immediately accommodated our request for a power table which set a great tone for the evening. Soon after we met Hannah, the sommelier. She was knowledgeable and easy to talk to. We chatted about wine and we got tastings to help us decide. Every option she brought was excellent and clearly well thought out. Our server Estefania from Venezuela was just as impressive. She was friendly, attentive, and confident in her recommendations which made the experience even better for us as first time guests. For appetizers, we ordered the Citrus Cured Kampachi along with the Daily Oysters. Both were fresh and delicious. The kampachi stood out for its unique and balanced flavors, unlike anything we've had before in a really good way. For our main courses, we tried the Cane Syrup Glazed Duck and the Spaghetti Homard. The duck was outstanding, perfectly cooked, and one of the best we've ever had. The pasta was bright, fresh, and full of flavor. To finish, we shared the Coconut Chiboust and the Chocolate Ginger Crémeux. The coconut dessert was light, tropical, and delicious. The crémeux was creative and well made, though the flavor combination wasn't quite our style. Overall, our experience at Maison Passerelle was excellent from start to finish. The service, the wine, and the food all came together perfectly. We would definitely return for a special occasion. read more

We had a lovely dinner here. We had a reservation in advance. We loved the decorations inside. I think it's a good idea to go here with a group as the food is meant to be shared family style. Our favorites were the sweet potato and peanut soup, duck, and crispy ocean trout. Drinks wise I ordered the kokoye punch, it was awesome. Service was great. Definitely on the pricier side in terms of what you get for portions. read more

High prices? Check. Small portions? Check. Massive hype? Check. I don't know if Americans realize that fashion restaurants aren't supposed to be the price-gouging disappointments they so often are here....but, they aren't. Like, the Prada Cafe in Milan charges bistro-level prices for high-quality dishes like saffron risotto that come in nonna-level amounts. By comparison, NYC places like Maison Passerelle and the Louis Vuitton Cafe charge three Michelin-star prices for mid-quality dishes at ant-like portions. Sigh. I'll give Passerelle props for "trying" to inject some Haitian flavor into an otherwise dull French menu, but this is one clear case where intent does not equal execution. For a girls' night dinner, the four of us started with a complimentary amuse bouche of mushrooms in broth--and if the actual dishes had been like this, I would be writing a different review. Sadly, the amuse bouche was probably the best part of our meal. We got the Warm Plantain Bread & Butter to share, except that wasn't possible because the bread was the size of half an iPhone, and we were basically stuck trying to cut it into teeny-tiny bites. It was decent quality, but generally unremarkable. And the seasoned butter accompaniments were nice but no different than the housemade butter offered at tons of other restaurants. For entrees, my Spaghetti Homard was a laughably small cut of lobster tail with an even tinier dallop of spaghetti and tomato sauce. It took about 5 bites to finish and cost more than $40. Seriously? I mean, I kind of get skimping on the lobster--but why be so stingy with the pasta and sauce? And if Haitian influences were intended to be present in the sauce, I must've missed the memo because the sauce wasn't even spicy. The Cane Syrup Glazed Duck was bland and forgettable with no hint of pineapple or tamarind as the menu promised. We also got a side salad to share, but that's not even worth typing about. Frankly, the Diri ak Sos Pwa side (jasmine rice and red kidney bean sauce) was the best part of our meal, and that just tasted like any rice and beans dish I've had. We were all still hungry after our small, lackluster entrees, so we ended up spending way too much money for dessert. The Coconut Chiboust was another over-promised, under-delivered item that was apparently intended to deliver lemongrass and makrut lime flavors along with the main toasted coconut sorbet, but mostly just tasted like coconut water with a hint of lime. The Rose Kayenn was more complex and interesting, but still not worth the price point for what was essentially sorbet with shaved ice. I will say the Souffle was delicious, but at $21, I would rather just make my own. The drinks were equally disappointing $20+ glasses of under-delivering concoctions, like the bland Situationship and a Sticky Rice cocktail that didn't taste like any sticky rice my Asian childhood has ever had. Sadly, the only impression Maison Passerelle made was on my wallet, and it wasn't a positive one. If I want Haitian, I think I'll stick to the flavorful mom 'n' pop shops we still have in the city. read more

I am such a huge fan of this place! My boyfriend found this restaurant online, and once we saw that most of the menu was gluten free and dairy free, I got so excited! I was even more excited that the head chef and creator was Black. We made a reservation for the same night. We really enjoyed our meal. Walking in, the restaurant was elegant, and I loved the open kitchen. The 2 seater tables were a bit tight, similar to most restaurants, but the seats were comfortable. Our server was nice and the other staff were great. It was also great to see so many Black chefs, and I loved the RnB and soul music. We ordered off the restaurant week menu as well as the regular menu. Looking at the both menus, it's evident that a talented chef created these dishes. My boyfriend is Haitian, so we appreciated seeing some Haitian staples being converted to fine dining. Our favorites were the lobster pasta, which had plenty of lobster, but we wanted more noodles and more of the entire dish. The gumbo was interesting, but really good. The Sòs Pwa Nwa with the Pickled red onions was next level. The light coconut cake with the sorbet was fantastic. The only disappointment was the cornbread. I was so excited to try to gluten-free bread. It seems like some nights they have mini muffins and some nights they have the bigger loaf. We were only given 1 mini muffin for two people, so I asked for more and was charged $12. I was annoyed since the mini loaf is clearly much bigger than the mini muffin. Even if it was only 1 mini muffin per person who ordered off the regular menu, we spent so much money, it feels like it's ridiculous to charge for an extra mini muffin on a $350 bill. That made me a bit upset. Otherwise, I'm a huge fan and highly recommend. Thank you for offering delicious Haitian food that's gf/df. We will be back. read more

I want to say that the service here was absolutely phenomenal. Rose was just a joy. She was so happy and you could easily tell she loves her job. The atmosphere is cute and intimate. We came with a group of 5 and ate for about 4 hours. Never once rushed. No bill to leave. We were able to enjoy and actually talk. Some of the food was hit or miss. The cod fritters I would skip. The duck is a must. If in the area give this place a try, but specifically coming here I think there's better options in the city. read more

As a fan of Chef Gregory Gourdet, from his seasons on Top Chef, I was thrilled to see that he opened a restaurant in NYC. From the moment that I checked in to the moment that I left, I was delighted by my wonderful experience at Maison Passerelle! *SPOILER ALERT* Upon being seated, my husband and I opened our menus to see a sweet Happy Anniversary note which felt so intentional and special. I loved it and think it set the tone for the night. For food, my favorites were the Diri ak Sos Pwa, Cane Syrup Glazed Duck, and Green Asparagus Soup. I enjoyed all of those dishes so much that I left a tiny bit of each aside just to take it home as leftovers for the next day. Aside from how good the food was, the service alone was 5 stars. They frequented checked on me without being overbearing, gave me great wine pairing recommendations, and kept checking in while the fire alarm was going off for maybe 20 minutes lol. Overall, I loved my visit here and have been recommending it to anyone who will listen! Thank you Chef Gregory for coming to NYC and for taking a photo with us :), I'm so excited to have you here! read more

This was everything we expected and more. I'm overjoyed when a restaurant lives up to the hype. I'm even more proud that a Haitian chef is able to shine such great light on our beautiful culture. Great job chef!!! Once we realized we had time on the schedule and we weren't too far from the restaurant, we checked online and were able to snag an early dinner reservation. As we walked in, we were greeted by many staff members. The hostess took our names and checked a bag in for us. We were seated immediately. Decor is beautiful and the servers' uniforms caught my attention-- pristine and distinct. I was eager to taste the food and discover the Haitian fusion everyone has been bragging about from the Portland restaurant. I started with the fritters. I followed with the grouper and a side of diri sos pwa. Yum yum yum. Food had a nice spicy kick to it. The look of the grouper scared me at first. Then the sos pwa looked a bit different than what I'm used to. But let me tell you, delicious!!! The beans were light and flavorful. Rice mixed with the beans and the grouper on top--again, delicious. The Kokoye Punch was so smooth. It just topped off the great meal. All great things about this restaurant. Wait staff were attentive in pouring water and checking if we needed anything. Food was great. Background music, soft. Overall, great dining experience. I'll definitely recommend this spot!! Now, we just need to get a slot in Portland read more

The restaurant has been open for three months and I'm lucky that was able to get in with a reservation booked a few hours in advance! As soon as you walked in, you are greeted by a host who is friendly and promptly ask if you'd like to check anything in. I checked in my shopping bag from Zara so I could be with loose hands through dinner. We are then guided to our seats by the waiter, who is very friendly! Soon thereafter, we had three different menus for drinks, dinner and wine. They have sommeliers on standby to give you any and all advice on drinks ($28 each). We ordered our drinks first which were absolutely delicious! The food was out in approximately 10-15 minutes. I had the chicken that was spectacular ($49) with regards to juiciness and flavors. I had the side salad ($10) as well as pikliz ($7) - also well balanced and delicious. I look forward to coming back again and enjoying the ambience and the amazing service that was provided by GG's team. Unfortunately, he was not there but the staff say he's extremely friendly and approachable and they enjoy working for him! read more

As a top chef fan, I was really excited to try this place out! The food was actually quite good, but unfortunately I found the prices to be ridiculous, the service slow, and the environment so loud I could barely hear myself talk. The dishes we ordered were quite flavorful, but the portions were small, especially for the price. This was nearly twice the price of duck I've had of similar quality at other restaurants. I think the noisy environment (maybe the room is just too large and echoey?) also just made the dining experience less pleasant. read more

Absolutely fantastic experience -- this place far exceeded my expectations, especially for a department store restaurant. The space is beautiful, the food was outstanding, and the service was warm and attentive throughout. We started with the smoked beets, which were delicious and artfully presented. For the main, the grilled white asparagus was a standout -- perfectly cooked with a beautifully executed sauce. It was on the pricier side, but absolutely worth it. We also ordered a variety of sides, all of which were excellent: the collard greens had a rich, satisfying flavor; the rice and lentils were both delicious and introduced with a thoughtful explanation of their cultural significance; the fries came with two fantastic dipping sauces; and the gem salad was timed thoughtfully with the appetizers. The soft, fluffy plantain bread with scotch bonnet butter was another highlight. Service was exceptional -- the staff walked us through the menu, made great drink recommendations, presented dishes with care, and kept our water glasses full. Serving utensils were always provided. Overall, a refined and memorable meal in a gorgeous setting. I'd absolutely return read more

An absolutely gorgeous space with a great ambience, excellent service, but food that doesn't measure up to the hype and price. When you walk into Printemps at 1 Wall Street the entrance is a 30-40 foot showroom of women's shoes. The walls and ceiling are covered by an absolutely magnificent mosaic tile. This is just extraordinary. It's worth going into the building just to see this space. It is remarkable. Further into the building is the bar and behind a door to the right the restaurant itself. Tables are spaced comfortably as is the sound level. The unique feature of Maison Passerelle is that most everything on the menu is both dairy and gluten free. The quality of the food is absolutely first rate. There were 6 of us in our group. Our appetizers included the Salt Cod Fritters: meh. A fishy taste that didn't do anything good for me. THe Pommes Frites were nicely fried, french fries. This is a central feature of French food, but not exactly a high end dish. A true standout was the Warm Plantain Bread with vegan butter. This was outstanding with a wonderful moist texture and fantastic flavor. Also the Chilled Corn soup. Tasty, subtle and wonderful. The best entree items that we ordered were the Cane Syrup Glazed duck and Crispy Skin Ocean Trout. Those of us who ordered these were very satisfied. Several of us ordered the Spaghetti Homard. This was served with pieces of lobster. The texture of the gluten free spaghetti was al dente. It was nice. But the lobster was frankly tasteless and the sauce was really boring. There is a difference between subtle and boring; this sauce was the latter. The service was nice but the meal was served v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y. I enjoy the opportunity to savor and discuss each dish and have time for conversation. Our meal that started at 8:30, ended after 11 without dessert or coffee. This was just overly lentment. We won't be back. read more

Maison Passerelle is a great new addition to the generally weak FiDi culinary scene. A Saga sibling, Maison Passerelle is the main restaurant in the new Printemps "curated collection " store at One Wall Street.

Items at this spot are hit and miss. A reservation is likely needed, as they were totally packed and have a bit of a hotspot vibe, even on the Thursday we visited. One standout is the side of pommes frites. These fries are thick, crisp, and so salty. Really delicious. An exceptional fry is underappreciated, and these make the entire visit worthwhile. Also stellar - the cocktails. I had a du riz, which is super unique but a real classic. It is a boozy delight, featuring rum, sake, and banana in a coupe. Great drink as good as what you'd hope for from a top notch cocktail bar. The other two items we ordered, however, were not up to par. The appetizer salt cod fritters are bland. Super bland. Almost no flavor at all. Very disappointing. This should not be getting served at a high end restaurant. The one entree we shared was ok, the lobster spaghetti. It had a decent, slightly smoky tomato sauce base with some thick pieces of lobster on top of the noodles. It is not bad, but not elevated or complex. It it had been $30, I would have felt ok, that's not memorable but worth it, but for $60, it is a joke. The flavors are just not there. Because I'm a fan of a compliment sandwich, I'll end by saying service was excellent, they are very attentive and keep your waters topped. I really appreciate that. Given the above, I wouldn't come back for dinner, but if there had been room at the bar and I just got a cocktail and frites, it would be a 5/5 experience. read more

I've been hearing about this place for a while now and we decided to go for my birthday. When you first walk in, it gives off a very vibrant and opulent vibe with the decor and plating that makes you feel like you're in Paris rather than the Fidi. The food was amazing, surprisingly light but still rich and complex in flavor. Standouts were the steak frites, the cod fritters, and the coconut chiboust. Now to the not so nice parts: Seating was comfortable but my wife and I had the unfortunate delight of being seated next to a mother and daughter (the daughter apparently works there) . The mother was definitely an old school conservative Hispanic woman because she basically insulted my wife's tattoos in Spanish throughout the dinner which is weird because it's NY, and everyone has tattoos. It's an odd thing to do. If anything I feel bad for the daughter, imagine having to put up with a parent that thinks like a troglodyte. read more

I attended Maison Passerelle on a Saturday night with a 7:15 p.m. reservation for three people. Although we were seated promptly, we waited about 30 minutes before having to ask for a server. The manager, who was working the floor, ultimately took our order and explained that they were busy, despite there being many empty tables throughout the restaurant that evening. The menu is prix fixe, but they had already run out of one of the starters, the kampachi. Unfortunately, the food itself was disappointing, with several dishes featuring flavors that clashed rather than complemented each other. As a New Yorker, I had high expectations for the experience, but both the service and the food fell far short. Due to the combination of poor service and underwhelming flavors, I will not be returning. read more

What a beautiful restaurant!! I used to live in this neighborhood years ago when I worked at windows on the world. it's exciting to see what's happening in FIDI today. I wanted to love the restaurant, but every thing just fell a little short. The servers were friendly, but not cohesive enough as a group to warrant the tab. I had to ask for our drinks after the food arrived and for my second course. Given excuses like, "it's our first week of lunch". Seriously? The food wanted to be great, but sadly it was too salty and probably too spicy for the ladies who lunch. FYI- I love salt and spice! The two best bites were the first and the last. A perfect amuse- cold coconut soup perfectly balanced and full of surprises and a passion fruit truffle. I hope they improve everything else in the middle, because the restaurant is incredibly comfortable and luxurious with great potential. read more
