This classic French bistro is magnificent on every level. Stylish atmosphere, great linens and tableware, perfect bread, delicious food and impeccable service that defies the stereotype of the snooty French server. The 3-course prix fixe lunch menu is a fantastic deal that will leave you...More

The menu was very good. Our table had croissants, the lemon pancakes, eggs were fabulous as well as the pommes de rotisserie. They were Amazing!! The staff all see to your table so you are not left waiting for refills, etc.

The atmosphere is great - exactly what you would want from a French restaurant, but sadly the food does not match. I got the chicken salad, and was very average. The atmosphere is very fun, but the food is just average.

Most of the dishes were disappointing. The salads were fair. The bagel was not so good. The iced coffee average. I really liked the lemon pancakes with berries and the place is beautiful. The pastries look great.

Matinee was over at 3. Where to dine in area at this odd hour? Apres Midi menu is served at Lafayette. Delicious burger. Tables far enough away from each other so noise level was ok

Love the ambiance, the wait staff was fantastic and our brunch kept us going all day. Can't wait to return to NYC and go back. This restaurant will be a nice brunch tradition for us.
