I really did like the place. I sat at the bar alone one saturday afternoon and had the onion tart from the apps menu. It came hot out of the oven and was a perfect lunch for one. The bartender was very friendly and still gets my vote for the best hair do. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a really quick brunch.

You are fooled by the decor upon entering, and the service is good, but the cesar salad had croutons as hard as rocks, and their version of mussles mariniere was more like a tasteless water with raw onions added to it. The bar was expensive too but the only thing really worth ingesting. We would never go back.

My husband and I have had breakfast here a couple of times. Most times were good... this last time was so so. As others have said, the seating is tight and the atmosphere can get loud. Service has always been so so... takes a while before the order is taken....takes a while to get anything additional...i.e. ketchup.. and also takes a while to get the check. My husband had the eggs benedict and they were completely cooked through. He had the impression that the order had been sitting for a while. We will probably go back one more time and see if they can redeem themselves.

We booked Pigalle on Valentine's Day when their sister restaurant, Marseilles, was completely booked till 10 PM. Since both belong to the same Tour De France restaurant group and we have had quite a few amazing experiences at Marseilles, we thought this would be similar, just the cuisine would be from a different part of France. Boy, were we wrong, because the entire atmosphere is different as well. Marseilled is brightly lit place with huge semi-circle shaped windows on two walls, impeccable service, and unhurried pace where one can enjoy and forget about the hustle and bustle of New York City, and even the bathrooms there are a pleasure to visit, seriously. Pigalle, on the other hand, is located in the lobby of the Hilton Garden Inn hotel, and you are given a card key attached to a huge wooden block to visit the hotel lobby's restroom. The tables are so close together that a skinny person would find it hard to move between them. The food itself is nothing special, either. Our skirt steak was lukewarm for mine and cold for my husband. The french fires and haricots vertes (green beans) were pretty good, though and so were the mussels mariniere. The desserts were nothing to rave about. The place is loud, dark and not cozy at all, basically, just eat and leave. To sum it up, next time I am going to Marseilles because for the same amount of money, I am getting a totally uplifting experience

i ordered the steak.. it was cold when i go to our table.. i dont know why.. lol but everything else were good and perfect

This restaurant is awesoome!! We simply found it while walking around, and loved it!! Food was great, service was excellent, great wine, wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Pigalle is a big, loud restaurant that always seems to be busy whenever you go there (in my case, close to 11PM on a Wednesday night). The tables, especially ones designated for smaller parties, are set extremely close to each other my wife and I were practically on the laps of the couple sitting next to us. Service was as good as could be expected in such a busy placeefficient but a bit rushed. Less than five minutes after being seated we were asked if we were ready to order, we hadn't even received our drinks yet. Food is only decent: my fruits de mer over pasta was a touch greasy, while my wife's roasted chicken was slightly dry. Her side of vegetables was cooked very nicely though. Service is fast there, thoughthey want you in and out so that they can turn the tables over. Since we ordered neither appetizer nor dessert, we were done in less than forty-five minutes. Not terrible, but we probably won't return.
