Le Monde

Easy, quick, and tasty brunch in casual Upper West Side digs!

Good food. Good mood and ambiance.

I've given this place two chances. The food was poor tasting and made me sick. Service was very slow. It is only two stars instead of one because the management addressed my concerns at my second, and last, visit.

a certain charm by assocaition, but food could be from mcdonalds

I am a native New Yorker and will keep to the directness of how we are known to be :)

Drinks: Excellent. Great wine selection.
Food: Excellent. I recommend the goat cheese salad or the organic chicken.
Space: If you are looking for a Parisian style ambiance with excellent food, this is it. Very spacious and intimate in the indoor dinning area. The outside seated dining is very casual and cozy. Making it the perfect place to impress a date, get-togethers, or after-work drinks.
Crowd: 20-50s Mostly Columbia faculty, students, and local talent. It is a pick-up scene at the bar.
Service: Very attentive, professional and courteous staff. Since the outdoor dining is seasonal, it can be a little slow at the outside dinning area when it's crowded.
