We had an excellent evening at the Paris Bar, and although the Foie Gras was unfortunately missing, the other dishes were delicious. The waiters were very attentive and met all our requests. I highly recommend it!

Our waiter was great, however the food was tasteless. We had Lamb and Salmon. The bar staff did not prepare Kit Royale properly.

It was our first experience at Paris Bar. The place is charming and quiet. Nice ambience. It would be important to offer a variety of desserts (there was only one optinon)

Viva la French! Having French Cuisine outside of the country is quite an adventure, they are some many fresh restaurants in NY that claim to have authentic cuisine, but they are not as authentic as the Paris bar! The food is very good as well is the services. My family and I we really enjoyed every meal. Highly recommend it.

The entire staff were so welcoming and attentive. The food was very good—particularly the shrimp cocktail. An excellent option for Midtown in a sea of overpriced places that don’t quite stack up. We will be back!

Service and food started out great but then our waitress disappeared for 30 minutes so we had no idea the status of our lunch . It totally shifted our mood and perception of the place. Felt bad for a couple that sat next to us that waited over 15 minutes to even get water.

We had an 8pm business dinner at Paris Bar on a rainy Wednesday evening and the restaurant was relatively empty, so a very nice table was immediately available. The French bistro look and feel is great. The steak frites was very good - the steak excellent but the fries not as fresh and crispy as they should be. The braised lamb was okay, but overcooked with skimpy vegetables. The service was irregular - a long wait for our drinks order, but very prompt with our food orders. The wait person was quite knowledgeable and helpful with wines. As others have commented, Paris Bar is new and going through its shakedown period. It's a sister restaurant of Trattoria dell 'Arte, so I'm sure any bugs will be worked out soon. It's a good choice for French bistro food near Carnegie Hall.
