There is limited table seats. Most of the seating is at the wrap around bar. Be ready to pay when dining here. A beer was $16.50 My chicken club sandwich was $25 And a Ratatouille for $20 The elderly gentleman at the bar was as friendly as can be. You could see he enjoys his job. The menu was limited and did I mention over priced? I highly doubt I will be dining better again. I don't mind paying for a great meal but I would rather have it much more private with ambiance. read more

Airport food so don't expect much from the food or the service. The Farmhouse Eggs were edible, I supposed, but super oily. Baguette slices were surprisingly tasty. read more

Le Grand Comptoir - Farmhouse Eggs - Wine Bars Near Me - Jamaica, New York

This was the worst most expensive slowest meal I've ever had. My wife and i ordered a beer, a soda, a salad, and a chicken sandwich. The food took 50 mins to arrive to our table. The sandwich came with about 10 flavorless stale chips. The sandwich was dry and didn't have flavor. Our bill came out to $90 and they couldn't even give us real silverware to eat with. Only cheap plastic utensils for a $90 lunch. Do not go here read more

Fraud. If you do not immediately add a tip a 20% tip is automatically added despite the tab still remaining open. Thus, servers wait until after the tab closes to bring the food and drinks. BS read more

While waiting at Termimal 7, we came here to grab a drink. There aren't too many choices in this terminal and this is one of two spot that's an actual restaurant/bar. We got a round of Old Fashioned cocktails. It's pricey, but good --gets the job done, basically. I wish they have spots to charge your phone here. read more

Whew, I am glad that we were not in a rush when we visited this spot in JFK. I ordered a mimosa and my husband and I split an order of bruschetta. The service was so slow and the two staff members were not getting along. It was not staffed for the amount of people that were coming in, it is also expensive and the food was just okay. read more

An insult to the French. And to New York. The food was absolutely awful, and overpriced beyond belief. Possibly the worst food I've ever had in an airport. Go across the way and get yourself a pizza or some other fast food. read more

Aside from the insane prices, which is expected for an airport, they brought the wrong order out and without the drinks. I had to bring the food to the bar to explain what I ordered. His brows furrowed at my phone screen which showed my receipt of what I actually ordered. He kept repeating what I was supposed to get like it was his first time reading ever. Once the right food came out, the baked eggs were rubbery, definitely overdone. Hot sauce didn't save it. The bartender/server tried to explain the mixup as me scanning a QR code at a different table which made no sense because we only sat at one table with the same QR code. The lies are unnecessary. He's just a moron and your cook sucks at cooking. Please quit. All of you. Do something you like instead. read more

The place has good ambience and nice waiters. The food is in need of major help. I paid 40 dollars for a beer and chicken club. For such prices the least I could ask for is a sandwich that is halfway edible. The chicken looked not great. The chips were stale. For 40.00 I now had barely eaten a meal. Disappointing. Do better! Or at the very least make prices that reflect the low quality of the food. read more

Is this the worst food that I have had in New York? Yes. Yes it is. I know it's airport food but even then, the worst food I have had at an airport read more

After an amazing week of wonderful deli, street and counter food, my NYC trip will be capped off by one of the worst sandwiches I have ever ordered. In a city with a deep culinary richness, which New Yorkers are deservedly proud of, the Port should be ashamed of this $20 pile of stale bread, limp tomato and dry chicken. I am no food snob by any means and most likely would not have reviewed this, but the cost/quality ratio pushed me over the edge. Historically I have not review food venues because a random off service night or imbalanced recipe can occur. Proprietors and staff should not be punished for these types of occurrences. This is different - this is failure by design. To be clear, my service was good, as was the service at tables around me. My issue is only with the quality and price of the food. The staff did their best with the tools they had. Now that this realtime review is over, I can get back to my $14.50 20oz Bud Light. It may be expensive, but at least it is refreshing as expected. Cheers. Jeff read more

This review is for the Le Grand Comptoir location in JFK's Terminal 7. Gayle's and my experience was limited to drinks before our flight and having a place to sit and relax while waiting for our boarding time. Gayle enjoyed her Bloody Mary, while I was happy with coffee, the airports WIFI, and a chance to hang out and stare at my screen. read more

This is the worst place ever. Our food was not edible and we were charged for the wrong items (more expensive of course) and had a forced gratuity added to the charge. read more

Good service; terrible food. However, we we're stuck with a three hour delay, and this was better than M&Ms for dinner. The chicken was 3 stars on the 1 star nachos Note: the the nachos featured queso, not melted cheese. Ugh The chicken sandwich was 3 stars. If you're a chicken patty hater, it's 2 stars. The chips that came with the sandwich ranked 0 stars--truly the worst fresh chips we've ever sampled. I love grease, and these dead things were bland and tasteless. Pity. The margaritas were good, but they are $22 per margarita. Be warned. read more

The waiter did not speak English and pointed to scan our phone for menu! Which was a disaster waited over 50 minutes for two very over priced sandwiches! They added tip on! The whole place is a scam!! The only bright side was the waitress who helped us ! And helped us with the bill ! Still $ 80 for two sandwiches bottle of water and a draft beer is ridiculous! !

This place is awful. Ordered and paid for 2 Martinis and was given one in two glasses. Service is awful, bartenders subsupar. Ridiculous... $46 for one drink. Left them a 2 tip only because my husband didn't let me leave without tipping. Worst terminal ever read more

Eh not great...even for airport food. Drinks were okay but overpriced. Salad tasted like subway lettuce. Olives tasted odd. Spinach & artichoke dip wasnt bad but the chips were somewhat stale. Service was good however. Theres other places around to try for food, but service/drinks are good here. read more

Server was friendly at first, but when our order was taking forever (we didn't even order any cooked food and were running out of time), he told us it'd be out in two minutes. This is an airport mind you and people everywhere are on the go. Duh. We watched as people at the bar got their food before us. Doesn't get any more frustrating than that. After waiting almost another ten minutes (and a total of at least 30) we got up to leave and the server got on the phone and called security on us because he thought we were pulling a dine and dash. Funny and ironic because we didn't dine at all. Wow...wtf!? We ended up paying the bill on the app for food that was never delivered. There is also a disclaimer that says if you don't go through the process of checking out on the app you will automatically be charged 20% gratuity. The family sitting next to us saw our distress and I noticed that the lady had hardly eaten any of her salad. Her husband said the green beans were raw and not even cooked. Said the food was inedible and disgusting. We left to board our plane feeling like the whole place was just a setup and a scam. Never again. Please proceed with caution! read more

JFK Terminal 7 past the TSA checkpoint. Server was prompt, polite and attentive. Ambiance was nice - Large rectangular bar and an expansive table seating to the side with ample room between tables. Bar has a large runway view. Yes, the drink and food prices are very high but considering that you're in New York City and a major international airport, maybe not surprising. The prosciutto and fresh mozzarella ciabatta bun was fresh and delicious. The cranberry salad with the added grilled chicken was good as well. I had a canned beer that was cold and refreshing. My wife's Pinot Grigio was ok but for a wine bar, could have been better - seemed that the bottle had been open for a while. Overall a good experience and definitely a candidate for a return visit. read more

I literally had the worst stomach ache on the plane after eating this terrible meal. I love wine and I thought based on the descriptions, it would be tasty. It was not. The pasta was bland and had random greenery in it. I don't know if it was parsley or what but it threw off the meal. It was overpriced and not worth it. For some reason, the waitress told me to close my tab like she was rushing me, despite the lack of customers they had. I am writing this the next day with stomachache from a meal I ate over 12 hours ago. Don't eat here. read more

Stopped in for drinks, and appetizer. It's the airport so they didn't have limes for our drinks. The bruschetta was good. They only give you 6 little pieces of bread so definitely a lot more tomato that bread ratio. They never came back to see if we needed anything once the shift changed read more

The old man at the bar 7-18-24 was really good. That's why I am giving 2 stars instead of 1. I've been here many times as I com to NY every 1-3 months. I was there until closing, 12am. My flight is delayed. Came back around 8:20am to charge my phone, because the sitting area, when I passed, was full. Cesar asked can I help you with something. I replied I am just charging my phone. He said this isn't a sitting area. You can go over to the sitting area. I asked does it matter I was here til 12am and spent money. If he would have said no, gave reason I would have kept it moving. Instead he told me I wasn't here til 12am, I didn't spend money and he was there at 12am. Attaching my Bank Statement that shows. Now whenever I am at JFK. I'll go out of my way to avoid this place after spending probably thousands here throughout the years. read more

It's the first time I'm reviewing a restaurant in an airport.. I had two hours to kill so thought of camping here. Extremely difficult to get the server's attention here. All of them look upset and a bit unhappy with their jobs. A greeting or smile was far beyond my expectations, just needed to get my food. They did a good job with the grilled chicken Caesar salad. The portion was generous and it tasted good. I tipped them $3 on an $18 dollar bill.. ofcourse there was no thank you or even acknowledgement that I even exist. After all you are entitled for a tip to do your job, so what if the service is shitty. Spoiled my experience so I decided to cut my losses, not waste more time there and rather check out airport shopping instead. read more

10/10 for Carlos! Excellent service and good airport food! We had the artichoke dip and the cranberry beet salad. Both were tasty and prepared quickly. Carlos went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed. Thank you for a nice experience dining at JFK! read more

Highlight was the very polite lady who fetched me some iodized salt. The star is for you. Unfortunately the iodized salt was 100% required to mask the bland plasticine that was Le Grand Comptoir's $19.99 chicken club. Lowlight was the man who greeted on entry. read more

The service is awful. Bartender ignored me and adds 20% to a glass of wine that is $30. What's happening in this world? I want an apology and a refund. Awful attitude and experience. Stay away!!! read more

If you are reading this I hope it is because you have yet to sit down at Le Grand and are wondering if you should. RUN AWAY! Stick with Duncan donuts or really anything else in this terminal. Eat duty-free chocolate and you will be happier. Everything is overpriced, even for an airport bar, even for NYC. Paying $12 for a can of coors light? Am I at a professional sporting event? Cocktails are all $18 plus and from what I saw coming out, you would be happier at any dive bar in any city anywhere. We sat there staring our fate in the face, we thought this was really our only option before a long cross country flight. So we passed on the overpriced drinks and just ordered food, I wish we had just gotten up and left. My buddy got the bruschetta and it was literally pico de gallo on four pieces of ciabatta bread. I got a chicken caesar salad and it was basically a bagged salad with chicken that was drier than the sahara. After eating and drinking at incredible bars and restaurants all week this was a huge bummer to end our trip to NYC. Avoid at all costs read more

Got a couple beers. First choice wasn't cold enough as they'd just restocked (at least bartender told me) and then the bartender just sort of ... goldfished his way through the rest. Forgot orders, had to be asked a couple times (it wasn't that busy) ... Anyway, if you're a captive audience like me at least the booze has booze in it! read more

Quite honestly this business is an embarrassment to JfK, Icelandic Air and whom ever goes through terminal 7. Staffing of this establishment is a total of 3. If you order a refreshment and a sandwich expect 2 hours for your drink to arrive at your table. Allow for 3 hours for a sandwich. Did I mention they sell no hot food and are the only restaurant in this concourse. Oh, and the staff is also rude about it. Don't even bother. Icelandic Air obviously got the short end of the deal at this terminal. Jfk must be unaware that Iceland is chic AF. They deserve a Jean George or the Icelandic equivalent (Dill)! read more

Great place to sit down and get some work done and not be bothered by servers asking you if you would like to order anything. Seating area was 1/4 full, 3 servers/bartenders working, no one came by to even drop off a menu the whole 45 minutes I was there. Even made eye contact with them a few times. Was going to order a drink to justify taking up the table, but I didn't need to! read more

Quite horrible service. 15 minutes of waving my hand and trying to make eye contact to get attention for service and when I tried to leave $1 for my drink, she said it wasn't enough, that she was underpaid and made a scene at the bar. Will not be back. read more

Considering it was the airport, I'll give this place 4 stars. I wouldn't normally give a place like this 4 stars, but It was by FAR the best option at JFK. We shared a bottle of rosé and a Cheese platter. The cheese was pretty basic: goat, Brie, cheddar and jack, but at least the cheddar was nice and sharp. It was also served with basic white bread roasts and grapes. Not very creative, but it was good enough to eat every bite. It was just what we needed before our 2-1/2 hour delay. Not sure about the other dishes, but you're pretty safe with wine and cheese. read more
