ok, so the service isn't terrific, the waiters and maitre d' are even rude sometimes. but i've stopped in dozens of times over the past year and somehow, that is just part of the charm. the prix fixe is the best value, with a selection of soup of the day, salad, or duck confite, plus chicken, fish, or meat, plus a glass of wine for $60 for two. they accept substitutions. other stuff on the menu: would stay away from the artichoke, mess to eat. the escargots are great, tasty sauce you mop up with bread. the french onion soup is super-cheesey, which i love. the crepes suzettes are great, actually the desserts are almost all unanimously good. what's nice is that, despite the rudeness, they don't kick you out, so it's a great place for hours of conversation or on a night when you don't feel like cooking, you live west of park ave, and like the idea of 'going out' with a reasonable price tag. enjoyez!

place is cute. have eaten here a lot because it's convenient. food can be iffy. staff is downright chilly! convenient for me, though.

This is a neighborhood restaurant: no more and no less. Sometimes the food is terrific and sometimes it isn't. Are they welcoming? No, but they are that way to everyone. A good place to go when you don't want to cook but don't want to travel farther to find something better. The drinks are good, and there's a terrific all-day prix fixe, which make it a nice place to know about.

Awesome! First time to eat here and the food, presentation, wine, atmosphere was incredible! Most patrons here we noticed all had french accents and so we knew we were in for a real authentic experience. The waiter did have trouble understanding us, but we worked it out. Honestly, I came for the liver and onions and it was the best I have ever had. The Tartane Fine for dessert was a delightful pancake filled with baked apples, served a la mode. Can't wait to go back!

Who charges $3.50 for a tiny club soda? A friend and I came in here on a cold night to catch up and eat some appetizers. Neither of us was in the mood for alcohol so we ordered two club sodas and were given looks by the bartender. So we ordered an appetizer. Even though club soda is only glorified water, I understand why some places need to charge for it. But $3.50 is exorbitant!! And the staff was very unfriendly on top of everything. The place is cute looking, if you're into the upper-east side faux-french decor and overly-perfumed folks dressed in black.

Had a late brunch on Marathon Sunday and was simply taken away by the food. The steak tartare melts in your mouth and the escargot was just out of this world. I can not wait to go back. Demarchelier you have a new regular couple thanks for everything.

I've been reading the past reviews and feel I need to say that I have been there only once but I have been impressed by the quality of the food. Really. I am French and cook French at home and when I go out I do not bother to go to a French restaurant. Demarchelier served us a good quality bistrot cooking, really worth what we were charged. Were we lucky that evening ?! I'll definitely go back there, and I do recommend it to people I know.
