My husband last came to this hidden gem about ten years ago, yesterday was my first time. Everything about this place was excellent ! Food, service, ambience, and staff ! We had lunch there with a friend and it was so nice we went there in the evening for dinner with another friend. Crab cake special was divine and the chocolate mousse to die for ! Great value at lunch and dinner too !

I was very shocked to find a place like this... it's not a big restaurant and tables are close together but that's what makes it interesting... because you never know who you are going to meet.... the food is great and the service is spectacular, i had the poached salmon special and it was fabulous followed by a nice creme brulee and a beautiful cappuccino.... in other words it's to die for!!!

We had pre-theater pre-fix menu. Appetizers didn't work well-escargo was served with some vermicelli and sauce was like a bad cheese or something...I'd rather have traditional escargo in garlick,dill and butter sauce! entrees; I choose duck and was dissapointed. Even though the skin was nicely crisped,the taste buds desired a better sauce . My partner had a salmon-that was AMAZING. highly reccomend! Whenthere was a desert time, we had a blast-we had 2 types of sorbet and a dark chocolate mousse to die for! overall it is overpriced a bit, but i guess that it also a location factor!

I can't really say enough about this place. I'm interning in the city, so my parents told me to find a place where they could take me out for dinner. We went to France a few years back so when I saw the website for this place I felt like I hit a goldmine. It didn't dissapoint. Great, fresh, authentic food combined with an atmosphere rarely seen outside of France made this a really unforgetable restaurant. My parents and I loved it all... my only suggestion is to make a reservation if you are planning on going around 6-7. The pre theater crowd comes in droves, we were lucky enough to have someone cancel their plans minutes before we walked in.

This restaurant has become our very favorite in the Lincoln Center area. The food is wonderful. The 'creamy' soups are NOT made with cream -yes! The rolls are the best. The service is very good even though they are always so busy before curtain time at Lincoln Center. The price is more than fair considering the quantity and most important the quality of the food. Even the desserts are great. I just wish they could stretch the place to make it more spacious. This is a gem.

La Boite en Bois has been my Lincoln Center restaurant of choice for approximately 30 years now. And why has this "matchbox" become my home away from home? Because it offers me a warm and welcoming ambience, a friendly and professional staff, a varied and extensive menu, an excellent Martini, and all for a price that exemplifies good value. I highly recommend Boite to one and all. It's ideal for pre or post theatre dining, or any time in between. But I would ask one favor when you do visit. Please don't deprive me of my favorite table.

Having tried mussels in different restaurants in NYC, we found the Mussels are the best dish. We found the place and service very relaxing and friendly. The goodwill they create makes us to go there regularly for mussels treat and enjoy their hospitality with the delicious food.
