Wonderful neighborhood spot with a great selection of wine and delicious food. Ive worked with Fadzio to coordinate a couple of my company happy hours there and they are so accommodating and generous with their selection of wines and food! Fantastic value and quality! Im so excited that after a couple years away (because of Covid) that we can return again!
Wine selection is great. Ambience lovely! French food, not so much. Chef unable to pull off 2 basic french dishes: French Onion soup & Mussels in Tomato garlic white wine. Soup should have caramelized onions: they werent. Flavorful, dark broth: it wasnt. Cheesy topping on croutons: good. Strongest flavor was from the thyme sprinkled on top. Broth for the mussels: delicious! Mussels: way too sandy! I feared to crack a tooth! I have eaten mussels in a lot of countries. I have never had such sandy mollusks!
I have tried this restaurant FOUR times over a six-month period and found it consistently poor. I suppose, if you go for wine an a small bite, its good, but for a meal, not so much. The first time I got there, they were closing. I still had 15 minutes to order, but I was turned away. Rudely. Too bad, since I was looking for an after-concert alternative vs. whats in Lincoln Center. The second time I went, the service was beyond slow. Then, the server found out that the kitchen mistakenly overlooked my order. Basically, I was forgotten. They were closing (again) when they realized this, so I had to take my meal to-go. The third time, service was slow, but the food was good. The fourth (and most likely last time) I went, my husbands pancakes were brought out cold and his egg not prepared the way he requested. No syrup or butter was provided, and I had to get up and ask. Then, his pancakes were brought back to the table. The egg followed about 10 minutes later. The place has potential, but the waitstaff needs more training, and the kitchen needs to learn better time management.
Great addition to the neighborhood, great wine list, great French-inspired food menu with fresh salads, cheese, etc. was kid friendly early when we went early in the evening and the service was amazing. Extremely knowledgeable about the wine, and the food came out quickly. Might become a weekly regular!!
Came here for brunch. The food was excellent. The cook and server must have been overwhelmed. 20 minutes to take our order, then another 30 to receive it. They nicely gave us a complementary glass of sparkling rose to end the meal. One other annoyance was being charged for a second cup of coffee.
Friends and I were celebrating and shared five cassolettes and they were all excellent: boeuf bourguignon, canard, saumon, gratin dauphinois, and riced cauliflower. And topped it off with two bottles of a sparkling rose. Enough for a meal and no entree fatigue. The wine bar on Riverside Boulevard is intimate and the service very pleasant.

2021-10-01I live in the area and decided to dine because I always see people sitting in the outside. Food was ok … service was poor. I asked for Parmesan cheese for pasta and was completely ignore. Afterwards someone said they did not have weird. Food missing flavor and freezing cold. Ordered the quinoa bowl and I asked if they may warmUp they did but it was still cold. To drink wine okay but spot wasn’t for me based on service. ( quinoa bowl with no flavor) dressing tasted like mayonnaise and plates were screaming add cheese . Blah

2022-05-20Extremely rude bartender. I was with my 25 lbs service dog. It was going to be my first time trying this restaurant in my neighborhood. He asked me for the service dog card, “in case the health department asks for it.” His manner was condescending and fully conceited

2020-03-10Well travel these days has been cramped due to the health related issues of the blue marble we all live on. However if you want to feel like youre in a cozy French bistro somewhere in France then schedule an excursion to the 100 Riverside Drive.Lets say the moment we were seated and greeted to the finishing touch of dessert we were never disappointed. So casual never rushed and our beautiful French speaking server Charlotte made this first visit one that will be followed by many repeat visits.Good wine(it all starts there does it not?)to the freshly prepared cassoulet trio we shared to the decadent Upside down apple pie we finished with this is your getaway from the stress we all are faced with. Buon appetit!
