Breakfast on a Saturday morning. Relaxed and casual place, that we all enjoyed. Youngest daughter said the bacon with her pancakes was really good. Her older sister was very happy with the sausages that came with hers. Tea was good and the cafe au lait was great. We will return I am sure ... no grumpy comments were heard!

TERRIBLE! I rarely review but this was such a poor experience I had to! Just got back from brunch--there is a reason there are plenty of reservations available and open tables! Service was prompt when we sat down, ordered quickly and bread and drinks came out fast. Ordered food, and then waited 45 min for the food for a party of 3! 45 min! Two orders of eggs Benedict and both had hard boiled yolks! Quiche was fine, but come on! They offered us dessert for free but we had already been there so incredibly long we didn't have time. We complained about the eggs and all they did was take off the charge for two regular coffees (so what, maybe $4)! The manager was rude when I asked about our food and obviously has no respect for the fact that people have choices and that I'm paying you for a service.
McDonald's has MUCH food for a MUCH lower cost. Save yourselves the trouble and money and time!

I used to love this place (a decade ago), but boy has it ever changed. They have a new sign, I'm guessing the ownership is new. We went tonight and it tasted like diner food. My French onion soup arrived almost instantly and was burned of the top, it seems an overzealous torch was applied to cheese that seemed to have been melted on top a while back, perhaps yesterday even... The lamb burger was overcooked (well done when I asked for medium rare) and the meat so over-spiced it was hard to choke down. the bun was hard and cold, I didn't even want to taste it. The fries were skinny and tasteless, if I had to guess I'd say they were poured frozen from a buy-in-bulk bag into the fryer. They weren't tasty enough to have been real potatoes recently. My husband's chicken cordon bleu ($28.50) literally looked like something you could get at a diner, right down to the upside-down-cup-shaped mound of orange rice. Literally everything except the bread looked and tasted like a reheated frozen TV dinner, not like something made fresh for us.
Even the drinks, which should be easy - I got a Pom-Fizz which is supposed to be made fizzy with champagne or sparkling wine, I forget which - either they forgot it or they used something old, because it was completely flat. It was good actually -but it was flat, and the maraschino cherry at the bottom was the cheap kind, not the kind you find in a drink from a quality cocktail establishment. We had to ask for water, and ketchup, and my husband's second glass of wine, so i'd call the service unremarkable. It was not crowded, 7pm on a Monday on the first day back from a blizzard. They were quick, I'll say that for them - so I guess if you are in a hurry before the theatre this might be just the ticket. Bumping them up to 3 stars for that, and the high ceilings which are unusual.
Also - the decor has changed. It really used to have a lovely bistro-authentic look that made me feel like I was back in Paris. They've changed something - painted, reupholstered, tried to update it somehow - and the yellow walls, orange banquettes, yellow-orange pillars etc. make it hard to remember that true antique-y bistro feel. They obviously chose a decorator "on the cheap" or did it themselves - a mistake, for it does not look authentic or even nice anymore.
The restaurant is certainly spacious and you do not get that claustrophobic feeling many other restaurants induce. I guess if it is competing with like a TGI Friday's for tourists in Times Square, perhaps it does OK. I was hoping for the Parisian bistro I remembered from the 90's and 00's tonight. But, I moved to Brooklyn in and I prefer farm to table now anyway, LOL.

I came here for a boozy lunch with a friend on a late Friday afternoon. The unassuming front entrance opens up to a majestic and expansive dining room. We ordered a couple of dirty martinis -- although each one was made differently. I assume this was because of changes in personnel’s shift. My friend ordered the Saumon Fume which was smoked salmon with capers and I got the homemade lobster bisque. The salmon dish look unimpressive and my friend said it was okay. She received roughly 6 pieces of thinly cut salmon spread out on a plate. My lobster bisque was good but it was a bit too creamy for my taste. The service was friendly and attentive.
