Will someone please clue the staff?
This is a very cute, tiny French-style restaurant, like a set for a Woody Allen movie. It seats 25 maximum at about 7 or 8 tables and is about ten feet wide by 20 feet long. It feels as if it should be on a Paris side street. The food is superb. French and nouvelle cuisine. The sesame crusted tuna is exceptional but the pre-fixe meals limit one's choices considerably. BIG DOWNER: Service couldn't be more indifferent. Fast, efficient and completely abrupt. No suggestions, no smiles. No one asked how anything was. Lingering over coffee and dessert is destroyed by the staff who clattered around, hoping to close on time. No refills offered. No goodbyes or "come again." No maitre D or hospitality; at these prices, the restaurant becomes an unbelievably arrogant culinary statement.

What a gem!!
I went here last night with 3 other adults and we were all stunned by how delicious and well executed the food was. The service was very good and they accommodated special requests graciously. The atmosphere was appealing. Small and intimate without being cramped or overly romantic Also, it seems a little less stuffy then other restaurants in the immediate area. I think we've found a new neighborhood "go to" place.

overpriced
overpriced for what it is. The food was ok, but not worth the inflated prices. The atmosphere is cute but the customer base seems old and stuffy. The service was indifferent. I would not go back.

Small but amazing selection!
A small restaurant, cozy with a delightful, Parisian ambiance. Good service. Food is great, french/american type food. My son generally has the excellent burger, as a more picky eater, but I can't get enough of the tuna, a french meets asian dish.

Excellent tuna burger
I've always loved the chocolate souffle and the great prices from the prix fixe menu, but this time I saw some new items and decided to try the tuna burger. As always, I was very satisfied with how great everything tastes, it was all perfect. Very juicy and delightful. Also, how cool is it to be able to bring your own bottle of wine after 8 pm?

Absolutely delicious brunch!
A friend recommended this place, which is only a couple blocks from where I live on the UES. I'm new to the city, but this place blew my mind. I had the eggs benedict with coffee and the chocolate souffle cake for dessert. It was hands down the best eggs benedict I have had (there is a little kick to the sauce which is surprising and yummy!) the dessert was rich yet not too heavy and the wait staff was always attentive and incredibly laid back and friendly. I plan on being a weekend regular. Next time I'm trying the eggs benedict on cheddar scones!

No Scarlett, it's not Paris
It's cute - it's reasonable, but it is hardly Paris - or for that matter good NYC bistrot. We dined on squash ravioli drowned in sage butter, hanger steak, again drowned in sauce, salade nicoise with unseasoned tuna and bread budding in creme anglaise without flavor. While it is a bargain by today's standards, it is pleasant, but really nothing beyond an average meal. A's dad
