As comfy as a pizza oven in outdoor shed with just one fan on other side. I actually got sunburned. Sliders were tiny but good. 2 for $15 plus credit charge surcharge.

The vegetable risotto was delicious, with just the right amount of truffle. A little pricey for an appetizer, but a lovely spot for a drink

Was very disappointed because this restaurant was recommended to us by friends who know that we love French food. We’ve been going through all the French restaurants since moving to the Upper East Side and this one really fell short. My husband and I love escargot and that was really the only dish that stood out. The frisée salad was okay, and the tuna tartare was fresh. However we requested fried oyster sliders yet they brought out plain fried oysters. Once sorrected, they were the tiniest sliders I’ve ever seen. Then both of our our entrees were a disappointment. The pictures of the hanger steak but nothing like what we were served. Not only that, but I asked for my steak, medium rare and it came out medium well. The waiter who had already gotten our oyster order wrong told me that he Ordered it medium but I had asked for medium rare and insisted that that’s what I had asked for. So now the waiter and the kitchen got it wrong. When the manager came over and offered to re-cook my steak, he then asked if I’d like another glass of wine in the meantime. I thought he was offering it to me complementary for the error but he did nothing. On top of that my husbands duck was chewy. I don’t see what there was to rave about here. One would think that with only two tables filled, our orders would have been perfect but the server was outside socializing and leaving tha manager to have to attend to us.

Cute French bistro slash wine bar on UES. Very friendly, familiar atmosphere with laid back servers and bartender with the appropriate French lilt.

Really nice vibe. Would be great if I lived in the neighborhood and could drop in for a drink from time to time. We ordered two desserts, tarte tatin and crème brulée, however, and they were simply terrible. We took two bites and pushed them aside. Bartender (owner?) asked us if we didn’t like them and we politely said no. We didn’t ask to be comped but we were charged for both. No big deal but tacky where I come from. Otherwise his service was friendly and helpful.

Great French neighborhood spot with eclectic decor. Started with VEGETABLE RISOTTO WITH WHITE TRUFFLE OIL and TUNA TARTARE. Followed by TAGLIATELLES À LA CARBONARA and a Friday special, VEAL CORDON BLEU. The food was delicious, especially the carbonara and risotto. Both were creamy and satisfying. Good service and strong drinks. The veal special was a nice surprise; the meet was nice and tender. Will come back again.

This a always a really lovely place. The food is great and it’s options are ideal for a light evening bite or such. For me, this place has been great because I come here with some of my favorite people.

This is the new location of the old AOC in the village neighborhood. It’s run by the same chef owner, so the French-inspired menu is still really good. I recommend the duck confit.

The restaurant is nicely decorated with a great vibe. The food was delicious, well worth the wait. The wine choices was extensive and some of the best tasting ones. The staff really knew their wine and recommended excellent ones based on your taste pallet.
