Good burger and Mac N' Cheese
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

03/17/2008 Posted by bobbyhbobby

Went on a Sunday, not packed at all. Menu is fairly straight forward, on the wall in chalk. Seems like they excel at the staples. Had the Mac N' Cheese as an appetizer and burger for an entree. Mac N' Cheese was pretty good, creamy, a little heavier on the cheese then I'm used to (think melted cheese sticking to the dish while you're trying to take it out). Burger was awesome. Big and served on a toasted english muffin. I particularly don't prefer toppings on my burger other than cheese and this was served with cheddar and onion. I thought it was pretty good, not sure if it should grace the list of best burger, but definitely a solid choice. Fries were good too. Finished the meal with the homemade chocolate pudding. Thick but delicious. A desert to share, not for one (unless you prefer to die young).

Pros: Solid menu, high quality burger. Good atmosphere

Cons: Feels like they're still redecorating, limited drink menu, waitress sometimes absent-minded.

Editor's Review

Late, lamented East Village restaurant Le Tableau has been reimagined as a down-to-earth American-style bistro.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

Wines range from $36 to $60. The easy-to-drink red Bandol ($36) goes nicely with most of the hearty menu.
