Always a wonderful experience at Cafe Luxembourg. The service, personnel and staff are all friendly and informative. The food is very consistent and deliciously prepared, whether they are the menu entrees or the dinner specials. Always a nice selection of beverages. We enjoy dining here as it is also convenient to Lincoln Center venues, just a short walk.

We had an excellent experience af Bad Roman. The babka, truffle penne luongo, short rib papparadelle, and chocolate torte were all to die for. Some of the best Italian I've had outside of Italy. And they gave my wife and I a card and a glass of champagne for our anniversary. Great experience!

My husband and I were at Nice Matin for their special St. Valentine's Day dinner. The food was great, everyone in the place was happy; we got parting gifts of chocolate truffles and roses.

I had the best time! La Grand Boucherie has such a beautiful ambiance. Feels very chic when you enter. The bar is stunning. The staff was very friendly, bathrooms very clean. For starters my friend & I shared the ceaser salad. We each had a glass of Sancerre, perfect compliment to our meal. I ordered the Filet Mignon au poivre - it was perfection! I tried my friend’s Bavette au diane which was also fantastic. We shared a side of haricots vert- they were great as well. For dessert we shared profiteroles & the chocolate caramel tart. A great way to end our meal! Sooo good! The chocolate was not too sweet & not too bitter- it was practically perfect with every bite! The service was fantastic. The perfect last supper before my travels… Can’t wait to come back!

Exceeded our expectations. We chose to experience this iconic restaurant with our son to celebrate a special occasion, but the experience was more than anticipated. Service was EXCEPTIONAL, the food was delicious, perfectly executed and served with excellent timing. Manager checks table side, friendly staff, beautiful ambiance, STILL a fantastic restaurant. Definitely worth its pedigree of long term respect. Not just a tourist attraction…definitely worth a visit for anyone wanting a special dining experience in a lovely setting.
