You rarely find places like this in NYC- good food, reasonably priced (fixed price menu before 8pm rocks), not loud or too crowded and decent service.

This restaurant got very good reviews from this site. I was surprised how bad the food was. It all seemed old, like a few days. The duck leg I had I could not eat because it tasted rancid-like. I believe it was a better restaurant in the past. The french posters all over the restaurant are beautiful. It was cheap but I rather pay more for eatable food. My friend's beef stew also tasted very old. The same goes for the mussels.

This place was great! You can't beat the $19 prix fixe menu. You get to choose from ANYTHING on the menu and nothing is off limits! I tried the Crab Croquettes (delicious, and yes, the sauce IS hot) and the Salade Jumelle (a good, basic mesculen salad). For the entrees, I tried the Steak au poivre (very tender, though the sauce could use a touch more pepper), the scallops (delicate and delicious), and the Salmon (great flavor, interesting presentation, crispy on the outside, but juicy and flavorful on the inside). Warning, I ordered the steak Medium well and it came out Medium. It was still delicious though. For dessert, the poached pear with chocolate sauce was amazing (they used a very good chocolate) and the Mud cake was good, but heavy. If you love Bistro's, this place is for you!
