    Almond Croissant
    Will N.

    Wasn't a croissant fan I tried THIS almond croissant. Didn't expect the pressed technique, but I love it. I totally understand the hype and recommendations now. The rest of the pastry items look fresh and tasty as well--I want to go back and try other items for sure.

    Cute window sign.

    I took a late-night flight into town and the next morning my friend had coffee and breakfast waiting. He told me I had to try the croissant because it was from a local bakery, and it was voted the #1 croissant in New York by the NY Daily News. I took a bite, and he was right! My oh my, it was one of the best I've tasted. Layers of buttery, flaky pastry. Perfectly crisp on the edges and fluffy inside. I happened to pass by the shop the next day during my morning run, so I stopped to check it out. The case was loaded with freshly baked goods and other delicious treats. Owner/Chef Laurent is from France, so you are getting authentic French pastries. They also sell a variety of cheeses & other gourmet items.

    Q5. Spinach and Bacon Quiche Spinach Croissant Mini apple turnover

    There's a wide variety of baked goods here and everything looks super fresh. My go-to is the spinach and feta croissant. The croissant layers and texture are amazing! I also tried the mini apple turnover, but the filling is lacking. I also highly recommend the quiches here. Bring them home and reheat for enhanced taste. The next item I would come back to try is the almond croissant and tart.

    Considering the photos of all the goodies in here, we were expecting everything to be good. I think the food is 3.5 stars at best. We ordered two croissants, a fruit tart, a strawberry cheesecake and a madeleine. They have posters saying they have the best croissants in NY so we were looking forward to it but honestly everything was just mediocre at best. Croissant was pretty good but that's about it. The strawberry cheesecake tasted weird! The Strawberry on top to the cheesecake itself, I would completely skip next time. The tart was just okay but the custard on there is not what I'm used to having from other shops- it felt thicker and the taste just wasnt there. The madeleine was just okay- also would skip. Come for croissants but I would skip everything else, even though everything in the display case looks good.

    This place is tres manifique, it's like a trip to France w/o leaving Brooklyn. The crossant a are really flaky and good, the coffee is nice n strong, macaroons! So good! The baguette yum. The vacuum packed meats ( suppressata, salami, chorizo ) n cheeses will make the charcuterie look amazing. The place recently got renovated so it's easier to navigate n not so chaotic as before. Give this place a try, your tummy will be happy you did.

    Ok a bit too ballsy to claim best croissants in the city, but truthfully they were not bad. It's a good neighborhood spot. My favorite was the fact that after scouring all sorts of specialty French grocers in the city I finally found my long sought Mirabelle jams here. They also have traditional baguettes and love that they make a distinction. There are seats outside, perfect little bench for people watching, while ripping apart a loaf and dipping in jam.

    What an amazing place to grab a banquet and a coffee. While you are at it, please get a croissant and all those pastries. This is the spot but definitely come early or it will be very busy. We got here around 9 am on a Sunday but that is cutting it a little. This is the ideal French pastry spot in the neighborhood. You can find some pretty unique stuff here. The service is very quick and to the point. They can use some smile but it's French style probably. The croissant has all the butter layers but can use some perfection. Btw this place is more of a grocery spot then a cafe. No space to sit except take it outside with 2 metal bench.

    I ordered a strawberry tart from DoorDash and received it in a box with the word "suicide" written on it. I called the store to find out why that was written on the box. They said they have a cupcake named suicide and they used the box for that previously then used the box for my order. First of all, I find it in poor taste to name any food suicide. It was jolting to see it on the box and I thought it was a very bad prank. And second of all, I don't think it's sanitary to reuse food containers in this manner.

    The baguette and classic croissants are delicious and affordable! The other baked items I bought were hit or miss I came on a Sunday and there was a little line that went pretty quickly- always a good sign Here's what I've tried so far: -traditional baguette- this is a bit more expensive than their other baguette. The cashier told me it was chewier and I was pleased with my choice -classic croissant- flaky and messy to eat, as a croissant should be. My boyfriend found it a little salty but I thought it was awesome -chocolate cupcake (called something like explosion or secret?)- filled with an oozing chocolatey center- very good -red velvet cupcake- fine, but nothing special. No special flavor and the cake itself was a bit dry -rainbow cookie- SO disappointing. It was rock hard and just tasted old. We ate it the same day we bought it. Other friends told me it's been good when they bought it in the past I'll definitely come back for French bakery basics or to pick up elements for a charcuterie board like nice cheeses!

    Le Mixte. French Ham & Cheese Crossaint. Creme brûlée
    Jackie G.

    This place has become a go to for us about once a month . We will order for pick up and take it home for dinner. We keep ordering the Classic French Ham & Cheese Crossaint and the Le Mixte. I like to make French Martinis at home to enjoy with it. Silly? Sure. But whatever. We have also enjoyed the La Dinde Sandwich and the Nutella & Banana Crossaint (but who wouldn't enjoy something with Nutella?) Some of the desserts we have tried include the blueberry tart and apple tart (heat them up a little bit when you get them home), the Creme Brûlée, the brownie and cheesecake. All of their desserts are good so far. I have to break out of the habit I'm in and try some of the crepes. Will update when I do!

    Back again to pickup some food!

    Love the sandwiches they make on croissants and baguettes. The closest thing I've found in the city to a sandwich at a boulangerie in Paris.

High ceilings, soft lighting, and just enough energy in the room to make it feel lively without being chaotic. It works equally well for a date, a dinner with friends, or even a solo meal at the bar. Food-wise, everything felt intentional. The menu leans classic French, but it doesn't feel heavy or outdated. The roast chicken is the obvious move for a reason. It's simple, but perfectly done. The kind of dish that makes you realize how good something basic can be when executed right. The steak frites were also solid, and the sauces across the board stood out more than expected. Service was polished but not stiff. They know what they're doing, but it never feels rehearsed or overbearing. If I had to nitpick, it's not cheap, and portions aren't massive, but you're not really coming here for volume anyway. It's more about the overall experience. Overall, Le Crocodile hits that balance of being a "nice night out" spot without feeling like a production. Definitely somewhere I'd come back to.

Based on the other reviews perhaps it was an off night in the kitchen, but I likely wouldn't go back. Ambiance is intimate and cozy. Great local neighborhood vibes. Definitely a spot I could see coming by on a weeknight if you live around the area. Food, overall the food lacked flavor and at times was overcooked or undercooked. I think there are better spots if you live within your walking distance and I definitely wouldn't travel out of my way here unfortunately. I ordered: -French Onion Soup: looked delish and had nice flavor, but it was actually under seasoned. Needed more salt which is saying a lot for French onion soup. -Zucchini Pancakes: skip. This was raw and we had to send it back. Kitchen remade it and it was still questionable. Quite mushy and just not very flavorful. -Mini Moules (mussels): this was ok. I thought it was under seasoned. -French Fries: perfection. Super crispy, not greasy. -Chicken Cordon Bleu: it looked good, but sadly it was really under seasoned. And the chicken seemed overcooked and was quite dry despite the amount of sauce on it. -Steak Frites: the person enjoyed this. Liked the sauce a lot. We enjoyed the desserts a lot: chocolate soufflé (on the smaller side) and San Sebastián cheesecake.

Highlights (would order again): - Foie gras canelé - $15 each so yes, it's pricey for the size, but it's genuinely delicious. Rich foie flavor with a surprise sweetness that totally works and makes it feel more like a savory-dessert bite than a standard foie app. - Duck pithivier - basically "beef Wellington but with duck," with that flaky pastry moment and deep, cozy flavor. - Desserts: the "canard au citron" lemon meringue is almost too cute to eat (there's a little duck!) and it was my favorite dessert of the night: bright, citrusy, and not too heavy. The yuzu frozen yogurt was clean and refreshing, and the chocolate brownie pie hits the rich/chocolate craving perfectly. Also tried: - Crab crepe - my friend described it as a "Caesar salad wrap with a soggy tortilla in the best way," which was weirdly accurate. Tasty, but texturally soft (know what you're getting). - Honeynut squash bombolini - slightly sweet from the squash, fun little bite. - Pappardelle + agnolotti - comforting, saucy pasta energy (and great for sharing). - Colorado lamb - the only real miss for me: lamb itself was a bit salty, though the sides/sauce situation was delicious. Overall: inventive without being fussy, and everything feels very intentional. Portions are on the smaller/fine-dining side and the prices add up fast, but the execution is strong and the dessert game is elite. I'd come back for the duck pithivier + lemon duck dessert combo alone. They're also known for their duck which is a massive portion for $120 or $150 (I forgot the price) - have heard this is incredible so will need to come back to try that as well. Service was also great. Definitely deserve the Michelin star.

The presentation and flavor.. the parsnip that came with it was also a favorite. Ended the evening with the canard au citron.. not a fan of sweets but this was very lemony and not too sweet. All in all, outstanding.

The host had even set a table aside for us with coloring pages (based on the mural on the opposite wall, which they loved realizing). Everything was absolutely perfect. The Gougère (a cheese puff pastry) was airy, light and I loved it, more than anyone else at the table. The fried artichokes were more broiled (tasted healthier) and came in a slightly acidic tahini sauce. The sauce was a light layer on the dish instead of on top to keep the brussel sprouts from getting soggy. I got the moules frites, fantastic, no notes. My son got the kids steak and fries which came with a salad he ate first. The price ($22) for a "kids" meal seemed steep, but the steak alone was probably worth the price, and actually seasoned.
