The RW menu was nice and well worth it, but as for me, I saw something else that I would rather have than the choices on the RW menu. I decided to go with the duck confit, but I did not read the menu thoroughly to see what side it came with. When it came out I saw it was with Flageolet bean Ragout which unfortunately I cannot eat, so I had to let Anna our server know. I was hoping she would keep the duck and just replace the side, but it looked like they made a completely new order, what service. My wife and son both ordered from RW menu and chose the boeuf bourgigninon which was so delicious, very tender beef and smooth mashed potatoes. We decided to also order escargot and French onion soup. Our service was just amazing from Anna our main server and the support servers who brought out our orders and to those who made sure our glasses were never empty. Of course the prefixe dessert was also delicious. Just super happy we learned that it was restaurant week and that we were able to experience it.

(Full disclosure: my father was born in Sicily and I am not easy to impress when it comes to pasta). Our server, Ariel, was exceptional. This meal might be the best I've ever eaten. P.S.

The wonderful lady who was singing and playing the piano did a really good job, it's such a romantic place. The food was good and I split a bottle of wine with my partner. We ordered off the pre-fix menu and added oysters on top. The oysters were so good and I really liked the vinegar. For the appetizers, it was a beet salad and pate. The pate was SO good, I get it again to be honest. Then came the entrees, we ordered the medium well steak frites and pan seared stripped bass. The steak came out rare and the fish was okay, it could have been a bit more seasoned for my personal taste. I traded dishes with my partner because I can't eat rare steak but he can. We also got the peach ice cream dessert and the dessert of the day which was a coconut gelatin(?) dish and it was AMAZING. Overall experience was good, the only thing that was kinda a miss was the entrees.

Better than all the others. Not quite good as in Paris. It was a joy to eat here. And I feel like I've finally found a place that compares to Paris.

I was at this bistro, open since 1949, with a group a while ago. I had also gone in 2016, or…read moresomething similar, so it had been a while. The service was friendly, and as is typical for a spot like this, most of the clientele was on the older end. I don't believe anyone in our group had a drink apart from an iced tea, and after ordering, they brought out some bread with some butter. I wish the sliced baguette was warm, or at least the butter was slightly heated (or better yet whipped), but it worked to whet the appetite. In terms of food, they have a $45 pre-theater prix fixe, but we were there past 6:30, so we ordered à la carte. My appetizer was the tasty $15 Pâté de Campagne, or homemade country pork spread. The portion was much larger than expected, and it was served with some greens, cornichons, and some Dijon mustard. There was a good amount of fat in it, which made it rich and gave it a nice mix of textures. The cornichons, greens, and Dijon helped with the richness by either pairing with the pâté or by cleansing the palate. The leftover bread also went well. Overall, I liked it a lot. My main was a dish that doesn't appear to be on the menu anymore. This was the Filet de Bar Grillé au Champagne for $34, consisting of a filet of branzino with mixed vegetables and a champagne beurre blanc sauce. While not the biggest portion, the skin was nicely crispy, and the meat was tender and flavorful. The sauce on the bottom was slightly rich, but not so much that it overpowered the fish. I liked the vegetable mix as well, which added texture and additional flavors. Other people enjoyed the hanger steak, among other things. For dessert, I had the $12 Île Flottante, or Floating Island. This is a classic French dessert, consisting of a meringue on top of a crème anglaise, and I wish more places had it. The meringue had a soft texture, and it wasn't overly sweet even with the caramel. The crème anglaise was prepared properly as well, with my only possible complaint being that it lacked a bit of vanilla flavor, but that's just being picky. I vaguely remembered this place being good the last time I was there back in 2016 or so, but this time it was better. The Pâté was excellent, the fish was good, and the Floating Island was good as well.

Putting the food aside (which was VERY good), the place is beyond charming... like walking into your nonna's living room- and the staff was welcoming. As for the food: everything is "perfect" in a simple, old school, traditional way. No trendy twists. This is a GOOD thing in my book. It has been years since Ive had escorgot that I loved, but this brought me back. I had almost sworn off of it. My steak au-poivre was cooked to perfection and green peppercorn sauce was sublime. The fries were basic but in a good, I dare say perfect, way. My gf had the sole and, altho she says it wasnt earth shattering, liked it as well. The soufle was a bit of a novelty for me but worth a try. This place is Old School New York at its finest. P.S. I cant stand liver or pate but my gf ordered the foie gras (which ive never had) and tho i resisted trying it, I finally did and loved it. I think that says something about the place. She said it was perfect.

We ordered a traditional gran marnier soufflé with our dinner order as it takes that amount of time to make it. I came for the duck confit. It was tasty with the right amount of crispy skin. My sister ordered the Moules Marinieres which I think was the winner. It came with fries and a few small dishes of green beans. The Buf Bourguignon was rich and hearty. I've been craving a soufflé, and I'm not an expert but I wish I hadn't poured all the sauce in as the mariner was fairly strong and almost overpowered the soufflé in flavor. Overall, happy to support a small mom and pop business. You have to call for reservations. No resy or open table.

The bass had great flavor and came with sautéed spinach that was well cooked. It initially looked like a small portion but turned out to be plenty. The lamb chops were cooked to the requested temp and seasoned well. We left no crumbs. This one is definitely worth a try!

The Crêpe Forestière for my entrée was lovely too, and I washed it all down with a lemonade. Everything was genuinely delicious. My one small gripe: I got charged for two lemonades, which stung a little given that (a) it's lemonade, and (b) the glass was on the petite side to begin with. Minor quibble, though.
