Honestly it wasn't anything great. First off, it took them like 15 min for the server to come to our table. We almost left. We came for restaurant week and I would not recommend. It was $60 for dinner prie fix 3 course for restaurant week. I got their risotto which was not bad, but not amazing either. It was just okay. 3/5. I got their duck confit and I didn't even want to finish the dish. Mainly because the duck was soooo dry. 2/5. My friend did not get anything from the restaurant week menu. He got steak tartare, which was pretty good. 4/5. He also got steak frites. The steak and sauce was good well and was tasty. However... The frites were over-cooked. And I personally love french fries and have pretty low standards for fries because they are always so delicious. But they were barely salted, and way over-done. The kind where they are too stiff and when you bite into it all the starch is gone and you're left with air and oil in your mouth? Yeah gross. I will say the evening ended with the creme brulee being delicious and would give a 5/5. Restaurant week dessert you can pick anything from their dessert menu. And then we got the bill and I realized with the amount of money we spent here, we could have gotten a better meal somewhere else. read more

This has been one of my go-to restaurants for years, but I haven't done their weekend brunch till today! I came here with my family and am so happy that I did. They do a bottomless brunch option. You can pick between their different mimosa types. I went with just a single mimosa and did the blood orange. It was awesome! We started with the bread basket and boy is it a must try! The pastries are all warm and so fresh. My favorite was the poppyseed scone. For my main dish, I got the spinach omelette. I loved the addition of the goat cheese! It was the perfect amount of filling to egg ratio. It also comes with mixed greens and potatoes. Our server was so delightful and we are really looking forward to going back! It wasn't hard to get a reservation a few days in advance. I hope you get to check out their brunch here! read more

Pretty decent spot. Came here on a Tuesday night for a couple drinks. Restaurant wasn't super busy but service was good and drinks were great. Would certainly come back if I were in the area read more

Decent place. I expected more from this location but I left unsatisfied and I probably won't be coming back. Food was very bland and lacked ton of flavor. I sure didn't see this coming as French food is usually packed with a fun, and playful spices and culinary techniques. Our mussels and fries were cold and lacked flavor. Service was good, our service was helpful and tried to recover the situation. However, it was too late. Not to mention that the carafes are not rinsed out after each use. You may order a white wine that may have residual wine from a previous order. Carafes are not rinsed out. read more

My friends and I selected this restaurant due to its outdoor dining options and proximity to Port Authority. Unfortunately, we chose an absolutely frigid evening for dinner. The heating lamps admittedly provided negligible heat; we were wearing our winter coats the entire time we were eating, and the food very quickly became cold once placed on the table. My group ordered Escargot and beet salad for appetizers, neither of which I personally found appetizing. I ordered Le Burger, which wasn't remarkably special and isn't something I'd order again (however, that's a risk you accept when you order a non-French dish at a French restaurant). At the very least, the waitstaff served us kindly and patiently despite being the only people crazy enough to eat outside at the time. I would rate the entire experience as 1 - 2 stars, but I don't fault the restaurant for the cold temperatures nor my apparent distaste for authentic French food. I would be willing to come by again during another season or when COVID is normalized. read more

A bit sad, and "not worth the calories", nor the dent in the wallet. The restaurant looks appealing... but that's the end of it. Ordered the $85 bouillabaisse to share, which, when it appeared at our table, was missing about half the promised seafood, including lobster tails. After alerting our server, who agreed that things were amiss, a kitchen employee brought a dish of lobster tails and broth and poured it into our original dish, which had cooled by the time the lobster arrived. The management barely batted an eye at the mistake, offering one dessert on the house to account for the mistake... and the dessert, a jaconde sponge, could have been mistaken for a soggy biscuit underneath a melting scoop of ice cream. read more

Came for happy hour on a Saturday (3:30-5pm). Definitely worth it for the oysters - especially because happy hour was offered even on a Saturday! The oysters were good but not great. There was sand in a good amount of them. Escargot is sub-par nothing much to wrote home about. read more

I LOVE Marseille. I have been here for brunch two or three times--it's a favorite for when I come into town and have brunch with friends. I have never been here for dinner or happy hour. It's close to the theatres and other points of interest for visitors, and close to the subway for locals. The service is supreme: very attentive, they wipe away crumbs from your table, they are friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The food is always rich with well-developed flavors. The brunch baked goods basket is always delectable, and the mimosas are on point. Even the bread and butter they bring you is fantastic. In the past I have gotten steak frites (hard to resist, so buttery) and avocado toast. It is pricey, but it's Hell's Kitchen, you can't breathe without owing money. Due to the pandemic, the outdoor seating is even more available and it's great for people watching, The most recent time I went, it started to pour and our table was partially under the one gap in the awning. The staff worked with me to position the table so we could stay as dry as possible, and when another table opened up, they helped to move us. I love coming here, and will always prioritize it for brunch when I come to NY on future trips. read more

I've had the same routine on my last day in the city. That would be eating before heading to the park to relax before catching my flight home. This time around wasn't any different. The only difference was I wasn't alone. My friend and I weren't even really hungry, but we had just walked 10 blocks, saw this place as we crossed the street and was like why not. It was fairly when we got there. There may have only been a handful of other people inside. We were seated in the corner with a full view of the whole restaurant. The first thing I noticed as soon as we walked in was how beautiful the décor is. I love anything that reminds me of Paris. I decided to get the American breakfast with my eggs scrambled. My friend got the lox bagel. We also got the chocolate pancakes which I didn't plan to eat, but ended up having more than my friend. My choice was delicious, of course. The bacon was nothing like I've ever had before. So thick and crispy, I almost wanted more. I didn't get the name of the guy who waited on us, but he was great. Friendly, approachable and was not wrong when he said their coffee was great. I ended up having more than usual. Their OJ tastes just like how I remember oj in Paris tasted. I was telling my friend how it tasted like someone cut sweet oranges and squeezed them right into your mouth. read more

I had a great experience here for brunch. I ordered the gruyère and bacon omelet. When it came out, it seemed like it didn't have any cheese, so they took it back to add some. Once the cheese was in, it was delicious. The pot de crème was immaculate. Great service as well! read more

Feeling like French? Parlez vous frosé? Oui? D'accord, enough with the questions- this is where you should go if you want French cuisine with a lovely atmosphere. Everything we had was so good, but my favorite were the sea scallops! Simply delicious and cooked to perfection in a very good sauce. The crème brûlée is the best ending to a delightful meal Marseille seems a little bit closer while you're here. read more

Great French restaurant in Hell's Kitchen, not far from Times Square, a perfect place to stop before or after a show. Ambiance. The inside dining area is pretty, feels more upscale with linens, fresh roses and miniature candles. Weather permitting, they have an outside dining area with heaters, which is more casual and great for people watching and hearing the Hell's Kitchen energy. We started outside but moved inside for dessert when temperatures dropped and it was too cold to stay outside. Food we loved: - Rolls and butter. Very good. - Steak and frites. Excellent. Our favorite dish here. Tender, flavorful, and the bearnaise sauce was delicious with the crispy French fries. - Chocolate mousse cake. Rich, smooth and delicious. - Crème brûlée. Wonderful with berries on top. Other apps and food: - Frog legs. Tender, in a light crispy batter. If you are open to frog legs they are tender and tasty here. It is tough for me to get past the image of the frog, so likely not a dish I will order again. Long before I was a foodie, my foodie father would convince me to try new things by telling me they were chicken or other less daunting seeming foods. Frog legs was one of the foods he had me try telling me it was chicken, and I enjoyed it- until I learned the truth and pictured the frog. I have not had them since, and decided to try the same maneuver on my son. While I didn't say it was chicken I said I was ordering something different that would taste like chicken. Unfortunately the server set the dish down announcing frog legs. But my son tried! - Escargot. Okay, but I prefer plumper escargot than the smaller sized escargot served here, and I did not enjoy the broth which had a lemony flavor. Crispy bread accompanying the escargot was great. - Bouillabaisse. This was a big disappointment. Since only the larger dish for two included lobster (which the server discouraged for one saying it was enormous and would take up the entire table), I asked if I could have lobster added to the petite; the server checked and the chef said he could add for an additional $15, which I said was fine. I had not had this dish before and was surprised when I saw a small bowl of soup with no visible seafood. I took one bite; the broth was bland and flavorless, and there was almost nothing in the bowl except some chopped tomatoes, a couple small potatoes, a few tiny clams and a couple tiny chunks of crab or lobster. Where was any seafood or the lobster I agreed to pay extra for? Not in my little bowl. Fortunately the server and chef agreed to take the dish back, and I ordered another steak frites dish instead. I looked up photos of this dish after we left, and theirs definitely missed the mark. Drink. I had the Cherry Manhattan which was well presented and very good. Service. The hostess and our main service was friendly, helpful and accommodating. I recommend when in the Hells Kitchen area and would return. read more

It was a very authentic belle époque French bistro experience. The service was friendly, the prices were a bit on the expensive side.

Tonight is our last night of our trip, so like every other trip, it's usually our big expensive dinner. This was good but not the home run I'd hoped for. First off, let me say the night was great. Nothing awful happened, but the meal was just short of great, but still very good. We were seated promptly, even though we were 15 minutes early for our reservation. Our first server was friendly and engaged. We really liked her. My wife got a delicious cocktail that tasted like Kool-Aid with kick. And she had French onion soup for her appetizer. I had the shrimp beignets (they were fried shrimp in a light batter) with aioli. The appetizers were both fantastic. Entrees were duck with a honey glaze and steak frites. Both were good, but my steak was a bit over cooked/charred on the outside and it made it not quite so great, but still good. Our replacement server was friendly, but seemed like he had a lot of tables, so we didn't get checked in on as often as we probably would have. But, it was still a nice experience and we enjoyed ourselves. My issue here was that while everything was good, nothing was great. A definite four out of five, and that's still very good. read more

Great service, good food, slightly overpriced. I came here for the restaurant week special, so I got a reasonable deal on dinner. The grape almond gazpacho was delicious! The vegetable pasta with ricotta was just ok (a little flavorless). The atmosphere of the restaurant was really nice - like a spacious European brasserie but with exuberant air conditioning. This would be a nice place to come for a family dinner or other group event. read more

This is the kind of staple, casual, neighborhood bistro that we need more of on 9th Ave. So many mom 'n' pop shops have folded in recent years only to be taken over by soulless chains like Panda Express and Kohl's. The pandemic definitely didn't help. We came here for brunch and enjoyed the Pomegranate Mimosas, Steak Tartare, and Grilled Salmon. Service was excellent on the outdoor patio. The big drawback, though, was the sketchy homeless people who'd walk by every 15-30 min and hassle us (and the other outdoor diners). For this reason, I'd recommend sitting indoors, even when the weather's nice. read more

One of our go to places for celebrations. Classy casual. Great food, great drinks, fun atmosphere.

This is my Favorite Neighborhood French Restaurant that ive been coming to for years! Delicious French Onion Soup and Steak Frites! The Pork Schnitzel is my favorite and the best waiter is Andres! He goes out of his way everytime we have him to go above and beyond for us more than ive ever experienced here before. He even noticed this last visit that I didnt care for the frozen mojito and didnt want to say anything I was trying to drink it and he said if you dont like it you dont and offered to change it out for me politely. What a fantastic waiter who really cares about his customers! We will be back for years to come! read more

My wife and I had come here after seeing a play in the city. We each took turns picking restaurants to try for dinner and this was the one I had picked. We had started at the bar with some raw oysters and some cocktails and waited for our table to be ready .We had gotten there a little early so we had some time for our first round of drinks. We had to show our vaccine cards to dine here which we were completely fine with and made us feel slightly safer. Once we got to the table we had ordered some escargot and a small cheese plate which are both really good. And for dinner I had gotten steak and fries and my wife had gone a duck entree. The food was all very good and the service was phenomenal. I sometimes forget how much I like French food and coming here reminded me of how much I enjoy it. If you're in the city and you just gotten out of play and want something good to eat this place is not a far walk it would be worth considering. read more

It's my first time here. Great menu, excellent food and generous portions, good sized mussels and oysters! I will definitely try more items on the menu next time. I was very happy with the oysters for Happy Hour. We sat outside, their outdoor set up is very nice and tucked on the side, people passing are not that intrusive, lastly great service with attentive staff. Overall a good time here, we are definitely coming back. read more

Stopped by Marseille for dinner last September with a friend and her mother before we caught Oklahoma! down the street! I wasn't super hungry so I just ordered a few apps. We had complementary bread and herb butter - the bread was a bit too hard to chew for my taste, but the flavor was excellent! Service was rather slow; I understand being busy for dinner, but we did communicate that we had to be at a show within an hour. Our server was pretty gracious about us paying for our food early, but I did wish that things had been sped up just a tad. I ordered the tuna tartare and the escargot, both of which were quite delicious! I also did wish that the tuna tartare came with a few more of the chips, just because the ratio was so off. But the escargot were excellent and wonderfully flavored. The next time I'm in the area I'd love to come back and sample some of their entrees! The others in my party ordered the seafood burger and the regular burger - I tried a bit of the seafood burger and it was quite delicious! read more

The burger? OMG! And a juicy red beefsteak tomato!Haricot verts to die for. So... why not 5 stars? The music. Folks! I don't think you realize how much a part of the ambiance the music is? Some odd middle eastern music about a night in Dubai... then weird other music with dumb percussion. Do yourself a favor Marseille... play some jazz. Play something classic OR classical. The samba beat of whatever I'm hearing in whatever language is god awful- OR... how about this idea: French restaurant? Play French music. Have you ever heard of Jacques Brel? How about Charles Aznavour? Not this cheap crappy homogenized UNORIGINALcrap. Rejecte DJ music that makes me think of a drunk couple who just met eachother at 2AM about to go home together. read more

The food is really good. The place is comfy and l looks like the local gem. I went there for dinner and returned the next day for breakfast.

For dinner was a better experience, the food was ok pint and Very well prepared. We had and i recommend the fillet and the duck..! read more

Came here for dinner with family over New Year's Eve weekend :) the restaurant is located close to Times Square so was really hectic and crowded. Upon entering, I immediately noticed the wonderful Christmas decorations and thoroughly enjoyed the decor and vibe. We were seated immediately with reservation and our waiter passed around the menu and filled our water glasses. Since it was busy dinner time during the holidays, the service wasn't as great (took a while to order food, waiter wasn't very friendly). The prices were decent though for the location and portions. I ordered the salmon ~$39 and couple people ordered the steak frites ~$45. Both meats were juicy and tender. We also got the escargot and grilled octopus to share (good appetizers, wasn't wow). Ended the meal with the most delicious creme brûlée I've ever had (sweetness was just right). Recommend coming here when less busy as service might be better... read more

Exquisite french food for restaurant week. The food was a solid 3 out if 5 for restaurant week - $39 - 2 course appetizer/entree. The portions are sizeable and you get to taste a bit of everything. Ordered the pork belly, salmon, and goat cheese tart as appetizers. The crostini pieces associated with the salmon were extremely hard, would recommend not toasting the bread as much. The pork belly was flavorful but the goat cheese tart didn't taste that fresh. For mains we ordered the short rib, free range chicken, and skate. I wish the chicken came with potatoes or rice, it was just a bed of sauteed spinach. The skate was extremely salty but was served on a bed of sauteed spinach and polenta. The short ribs were delicious. read more

Went here for dinner on Christmas Day 2021. The atmosphere was elegant and unassuming. We had a great table and a fantastic waiter - as far as service; everything was excellent. The food did not disappoint. It was a $70 Prefix dinner that allowed for an appetizer, main entree and dessert. I chose French Onion - as I'm on something of a crawl to find the best. This wasn't the best mostly because it was early in the day and the broth had not yet melded. It was quite good though. The main entree was a traditional plate of Turkey (which was a sliced Turkey roll), gravy, Brussel sprouts (not tender enough), stuffing with chestnuts and a cranberry compote. Dessert was a sticky toffee pudding that was not made like I usually have- this was deconstructed on the plate . All in all the experience was quite good. I would recommend this location and most definitely return. read more

The decor is the best part of this place. Cloth napkins, linen tablecloths, red chairs, perfectly compliant while easy on the eye staff and patrons who, certainly, lunch. It has an air about it that exudes a scene, dahrrhleeeiing. The tea bags are better than average but can we work on a prettier china? The brunch fare was a bit of a disappointment. Stick to basics like avocado toast and eggs benedict. The salad had to be sent back and I only ate about a third of the Florentine omelet. The staff handled it well and we didn't have to worry about it. Drinks are done well and there are some options for an unlimited boozy brunch. The bathrooms are small and there are 2 for ladies, 1 for the gents. Service can be more attentive, but it picked up once we let them know there was a showtime. The tables are small so if you have a larger group, be sure to book a reservation or plan on sitting separately. read more

Marseille - Brunch Menu. - French Near Me - New York, New York

I like this restaurant a whole lot. The food three to five stars, but the atmosphere is perfect and the service is lovely. And their bar is excellent. Dined here NYE. Whereas some restaurants are mob scenes and have limited menus on 12/31, they let you order à la carte at their normal prices. The restaurant is a lovely oasis on 9th Avenue - decorated in classic French bistro style. Tables are well spaced, unlike in many Manhattan restaurants. I started with a KIR. It was perfect, the epitome of a good kir - plus it had a really delicious lemon peel, which elevated it. Appetizers: Sweetie got French onion soup and liked it. I got the TUNA TARTARE. I'm sorry to say that, though NY Yelpers have praised this dish, it was rather boring for me. It was certainly inoffensive. But tuna tartare is a super trite dish in San Diego, and I've had so many playful spins, with so many different oils and flavors. This was definitely fresh, but it was quite bland - just the tuna and avo, plus a few dabs of meh sauce on the plate. Not what I expect at Marseille, and less good than at almost any place at home. Entrees: On the advice of our excellent server (a charming man from Morocco whose name I don't recall), I got the trout with lemon sauce and capers. Perfect. Really delicious and a good portion. Sweetie got the chicken and son got the steak - they were not as enthusiastic as me but they thought their dishes were fine. Wine: I got a perfect glass of Alsatian pinot blanc. Worked perfectly with the trout. Dessert: I was a little disappointed here. Ordered PROFITEROLES, one of my favorite desserts in the world. The pastry part was too eggy and not really worth eating, though the vanilla ice cream and the chocolate sauce were fine. I wouldn't order this again, and it didn't cap the meal off well. My son enjoyed his strawberry sorbet and vanilla ice cream. Why am I still giving 5 stars if my first and last course were not so great? Dining is not just the courses but also the whole experience. Service here is both warm and correct, atmosphere is fantastic, price is reasonable. I had some excellent alcohol which put me in a very good mood - and I had one superb dish and two that were fine. This remains one of my go-to places when visiting NYC - a chic neighborhood place, close enough to Times Square and the Port Authority - but light years away from the craziness! read more

We celebrated mother's day at Marseille. Six people. The bread was fresh, warm and fragrant. It came with butter in olive oil infused with an herb. We had the Sea Urchin Pasta, the Steak Frites, the Salade Jardinière, 5-dozen oysters (Huîtres), Shrimp Beignets, Tuna Tartare (which was amazingly good), the Duck Liver Mousse (very artfully served), Jarret d'Agneau (braised lamb shank) (incredible flavor), Vanilla Creme Brulee, and New York Cheesecake with cappuccino. A 2019 Sancerre Rouge. Service was courteous and efficient. Everything went perfectly. The bottom line is that the food tasted great; fresh, vital, balanced and intriguing. It was mother's day, and our grandmother said "It was like a visit to France". read more

I forgot to take pics of my food, boo to me. After a late engagement with friends, we walked for what seems like smiles to find someplace to eat. We somehow ended up at Marseille. I'm never around that area of the city so it was nice to discover something new. Marseille is a nice restaurant. We sat outside because inside was too cold. We all had the mint lemonade- it was good. I ordered the risotto and fries. My food was delicious, my friends thought there's was o.k. After we were done eating the manager came to talk to us. I can't remember his name, but he was cute and Greek. He was really nice. I don't know if I will ever go back to this marseille- it's out of the way for me, I hope I do get to go back. read more

I've been to Marseilles countless times, including on NYE, and I've never had an experience like I did last night. We had a reservation for 7 and my friends, who arrived ahead of me, were told they didn't have a table. That was remedied once I arrived and spoke to the host, but not good right out of the gate. We ordered our food by 7:30 and didn't get anything other than bread (and the waiter was nice enough to bring us more bread because he knew how long it had been) for an hour. And we were far from the only ones sitting around waiting for food. I don't know if the kitchen was understaffed or all the staff were spending their time bringing food and drink to the outside tables. But if there was a staff issue then the restaurant shouldn't have booked so many tables. You had much of the entire room without food for an extensive period of time. The manager was supposed to come around to our table but only did so at the very end, after spending a good deal of time throughout the evening talking with two women at the table next to ours. Ultimately the restaurant took 20% off the bill but that was kind of the minimum. Our waiter was great and did what he could (bringing a second round of drinks to the table after I got up and said the restaurant really needed to do something to provide an fast fix), but management did a really poor job. My food was good (I had the trout), but my friends were so hungry that they didn't really get to enjoy it as much as they should/would have. read more
