Loved the place, food was really good. Had the chocolate souffle , it takes about 30min but it's so worth the wait!!! And with great company I didn't even feel the wait!!! ;)

Kevin Lambert

Just a lovely place. Real European feel. Excellent food and service. Can't wait to go back.

Brian Rafferty

This is an excellent place to meet for drinks and/or to eat, very reliable and professional and well lodged in the central nervous system of NYC

Jeffrey Glueck

Good power breakfast ???? spot for grand central commuters. Skip the mediocre toast with the omelet and substitute fruit .

The Chop Chop Salad is great. However, this is a very busy lunch place and the quality if the food and service can dip at busy times.

Sous Chef Fatima Ali appeared on Food Network's Chopped. She was the youngest winner as well as the first Pakistani woman ever to win. Read more about this CIA graduate: Read more

Consistently great. Excellent spot for a business lunch or dinner in the Midtown East area.

Michael Clark

Roomy spot for a business breakfast directly adjacent to GCT. Good service and food as well .

Sandra Foyt

Try the Chicken Chop Chop Salad - Yummy! A cornucopia of flavors, it's the Sesame Ginger dressing that gives it its zing.#salad

Anne Huang

Great place after the work hours- quiet and no crowd to eat in the midtown Manhattan .

Julia Kristin

Loved the Filet Mignon ! Raw Medium, with a delicious pepper sauce ! Rose by the glass is excellent!

DoubleDeuce

Slower service but wonderful foods. For the area, it's a great choice. Not as loud as nearby places for a table full of people.

Karen

They actually have meeting space in the back ... for actual meetings, with a portable presentation monitor.

Nice, business like atmosphere. Avocado toast was good for breakfast

Richard

The Lamb Tangine is great. Reminds me of my days in Morocco. My favorite dish.

Jared Dapena

The filet mignon was worth the visit, but the Mahi Mahi is superb as well !

Valerie Latona

Definitely order the butternut squash soup ; other than the dollop of cream on the top (you can leave off), it's dairy free and yummy!

Joker

Flank steak on Prix Fix menu is small, but very good

Aashna S

Good breakfast . Business like atmosphere

Kong Lin

Not too French, I ordered confit canard (lamb for another time). It was not that authentic . You pay for the service. The server speak French though!

Pelin Kadilar

French onion soup , very tasty

Tash Concepcion

A convenient place for a quick lunch or after work dinner . Good for quiet conversation. Food is good but nothing special.

Ms Helene

Tuna tartare $16 app

Nolan Crawford

Great food, and conveniently situated in midtown.

Kevin Parker

The seared Ahi is sinfully delicious

Can't go wrong with the Moules Frites ! One of the best in town .

Thought the Friday Provençal Mixed Grill was a bit anemic for the price. Disappointed.

Seafood platter is the best deal on the menu for 20 bucks!
