Came here and it happened to be restaurant week. I was excited to come here finally but I was a…read more bit disappointed. Complementary bread and butter that they kept refilling, which were good. I got the salmon tartare and it was a bit too heavy on the dill and horseradish for my liking. I got the duck confit and the restaurant menu version has it without the orange sauce. The duck was expertly cooked with tender meat and crispy skin but there was no seasoning. I had to put salt to add flavor. The potatoes side was good though. I took a bite of my friend's chicken cordon bleu and this tasted excellently. Got the chocolate mousse and it was a nice dark chocolate. I want to come back to try other items. The service was very nice!

They also have great and reasonably priced sourdough loaves. I wanted to give their latte a try because I'd been disappointed by the coffee in the area. I liked the richness of the Iced Latte here and would choose this spot for coffee over the other nearby cafes in the area. The service was quick, and I love the wooden furniture for a slightly rustic atmosphere.

We took a drive to check out their French lunch buffet. It's not an offering I have heard about…read moreever, so I was really excited to see and eat! We found a charming and lovely restaurant with delightful French cooking. The deal really can't be beat. The small buffet area was ample both with options and flavor! She asked if we wanted a salad and choice of soups that they had for the day. They were brought out from the kitchen with a basket of rolls. We chose the creme of leeks soup. So warm and comforting! On the buffet: Turkey meatballs Chicken Dijon sauce Mussels & Clams Garlic sauce Also some sliced and cubed cheese were out on the buffet. For dessert they had small portions of bread pudding to help yourself to. We ate until we could eat no more! Marie was very kind and attentive. We were not rushed at all. We had a relaxing and pleasant lunch date. Honestly, if they were closer than us, I'd be there all the time. Maybe for dinner the next time! Lunch buffet is available Tuesdays-Saturday 11:00 am-2:30 pm

I had a really good time dining in at La Baraka. I always passed by the store but never really got…read morethe chance to go in. I'd been reading the reviews, following the restaurants social. I ordered UberEats from them before and was blown away by the tremendous offerings and generous portions. I decided to dine in and it was even better! The restaurant is located on the busy Northern Blvd between Morgan and Glenwood. The inside has a 19th century French ambiance, decorated with French posters, carpeted floors and a cozy warm dining area. Don't worry about the never ending traffic noise, commotion , and construction coming from outside. The calm and peaceful ambiance along with the music playing in the restaurant canceled out all the exterior noise. I opted in for their lunch buffet, which offered a ton of food for an amazing $18.95 deal which you can hardly find in this day and age. The restaurant gave a nice basket of warm bread with a generous amount of butter in a ramekin followed by a really good Tunisian salad with a little bit of everything. (fresh greens, cooked carrots, chickpea salad, diced cucumbers peppers and their take on the Ratatouille-- really good) I was given the option of getting their daily soup or the French Onion Soup with an up charge. I took the French option soup without any hesitation. Last time I had a good French onion soup was back when I attended college in upstate. Glad I got to try the one from here. The onion soup has an abundance of flavor with a generous amount of melted cheese and onions. The buffet selections were at the table. It came with two entrees (a chicken and a beef) cooked vegetables, mussels, mixed rice, cheese selection and slices bread cake. The entrees vary each day so be sure to call in and check. The chicken was moist, and juicy, served with a mushroom gravy. Similar to a Chicken Marsala dish. The stewed beef with mushrooms was nice and soft. The veggies included carrots and onions. The mussels were cooked to perfection, simmered in a nice buttery sauce. The meal also includes a cup of coffee or tea. What a great way to finish the meal. Marie was super nice and friendly. She gave me some insights on the food and the different menus they have on different days. A great establishment going strong for 47 years! Thank you Marie for everything. I will definitely be returning with my family.

Visited this with my friend…read more I had the escargot Persilee, he had the half shell clams. Our server Adrian F was friendly and welcoming. I had a glass of Bordeaux to accompany the meal He got Poulet Chardonnay which impressed him with the tenderness of the chicken and how everything came together. I got the plat du jour of cote de boeuf, of these rich short ribs over the creamy risotto, which had a finely braised, umami mixture of robust and creamy textured. It was stick to your ribs (pun intended). Was a busy Friday night and the restaurant interior looked beautiful and classic. I'd come here again.

Since I had my dog with me, they kindly let me dine outside. Service (5/5): Menu was available on the QR code and the waitress was patient and always ready for me. I don't think there were many guests on a Thursday evening at 7p. Nevertheless, the service was great. Food Escargot (4/5): The pieces were fairly large and there was about a dozen pieces that were all very tasty/fresh. The buttery flavors stood out. It was too salty but the bread dipped well into it. The plain white bread slices wasn't good, although its hard surface was a great vessel to enjoy the escargots on. Not ideal for dipping as it didn't soak up too much sauce. Wagyu Burger (5/5): The burger was incredibly juicy. The brioche bun is fabulous--soft but kept the burger intact. The refreshing salad was a nice touch. I liked how the additional add-ons were on the side to add as much or little you want to your burger.

OMG! Can't wait to return to this small cafe spot that I briefly visited to pick up a the best…read morescone I ever had. It was quite small in this petite size cafe, with some seating on the inside and a few tables outside to sit. The people who worked there and helped me with my ordering were very pleasant. I dropped in because I saw a sign outside that said scones and I love me a good one. They didn't have many options and I don't know if they may have just ran out, but this particular scone and I don't remember the flavor was freshly baked, with warm spices with just the right amount of warmth. It was so good that I must make a return. I'm glad I took a picture of it to just so I can ask what flavor was it. They get a thumb up for me, and if I find more delightful flavors and wonderful service they will sure to get the two thumbs! Happy Yelping!

I prefer my pasta a teensy bit more al dente Free bread: 9/10 served warm with crispy exterior and soft interior!! Servers were friendly and attentive (: Prices here seem very reasonable for a French restaurant in NYC. Many of their wines you can get $10 for a glass. Many of the appetizers were under $16. Almost all the entrees were under $30

Tldr: mediocre. Lobster ravioli definitely seems like a store bought item and not made in house…read more Coq au vin was decent, if it was cooked just a bit less it would've been great Came in and sat down. We were served with bread and butter. The Butter was cold and not the most spreadable. The Bread was nice soft airy and toasted. Bottom of the bread is really nice and crispy buttery in flavory. The Escargot a definitely on the smaller size but the flavor is decent. Has a slight toasty note Broccoli soup is okay with a decent flavor. Has a slightly too salty mouth feel leaving you feeling like you need to sip water while having your soup. The bits of toasted bread on top added a nice contrast to the soup. Wish there was a bit more though. Coq au vin The mashed potatoes with it was a smooth mash. I personally like mine with more texture but that could just be a personal preference. The bacon in the mash did gave it a much needed flavor and texture. Chicken was okay. It was soft but a little overdone so it's tiny bit stringy. Not dry yet though. The sauce for the coq au vin was a little too salty like it was reduced too much. Even after spreading it on the chicken it still contrast too much and you taste exactly where the salt is with each bite. The flavor itself was great though. If it was all cooked a bit less it'd be perfect. The lava cake was okay I wish it was a bit more warm but then the ice cream would melt so it was a tradeoff. The flavor was okay. The mint leaf really cuts that sugariness and add good flavor to it. The cake does get a bit mushy and sticky/dense after a bit. Had a good amount of chocolatiness. The lobster ravioli skin is a bit thick with not much filling. Sauce is a little more sour than I would like. No chunk of lobster in the ravioli just stringiness tiny strands. I definitely would not get this again
