The Scene – Neither trendy and slick nor haute and haughty, it this cozy wine bar adds a bit of Mediterranean sun to the chilly east 70s. Up front, a small bar and a few window tables make a perfect intimate setting for sipping and snacking; the more serious eating takes place in the not-much-bigger main room. – – The Food – The traditional French appetizers make great bar food, and they're a bargain. Options include an enormous bowl of mussels, an onion and anchovy tart, and a duck liver terrine. A recent special of sweetbreads and balsamic-dressed mesclun, on the…

charmant et delicieux!
by lealoff
Loved this place! The proprietress and staff are charming and helpful and the dinner was marvelous. 1st rate Boullibaise (sp?) and a lovely mushroom/ escargot / frisee appetizer. Also an excellent wine which the proprietress helped us select. We can't wait to return.
- Pros: food, service, ambience
- Cons: can't think of any

Excellent establishment
by pdv_33
I was very surprised this place is unreal. The food and service is excellent. It's funny that these little Upper East Side Bistro's can almost outdo the stuffy "Fine French Cuisine." The service and atmosphere was A+ and I plan on coming back. I really enjoyed it a whole lot. What else is there to say?
- Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere, Deserts
- Cons: A little hot inside

Romantic!
by hlindell
Great food, great ambiance! They have a wonderfully friendly staff. Our waiter deliciously described the specials of the day and offered suggestions of wine to go with our food. My wife and I had a delightful evening and to top it off - we were surprised when an acoustic jazz duo started entertaining around 10:00 - a beautiful way to end a romantic dinner. We highly recommend the experience. We will definitely be back.
- Pros: The best calamari I've ever eaten!
- Cons: The bathrooms could use an update.
