Wine Bar · Central Harlem · 43 tips and reviews
Kamaria: The corn soup is amazing. Like spicy corn in soup form. Try it!
Harlem Ambassador: While the space was jinxed in the past, the new wine bar is a hit with the nabe elites. It's even crowded during a blizzard! An endless wine selection. The lobster carpaccio & skirt steak is a must!
Claude Draillard: Could be great if service was at the level of the wine list. Food is good. Wines are well picked But service is as organized as traffic on a busy day in Cairo!

French Restaurant · Central Harlem · 65 tips and reviews
amNewYork: A rustic, appealing spot with whitewashed walls & West African décor, the funky-yet-traditional approach is best seen in dishes like salade Nicoise, escargot and coq au vin. High energy, great music.
Nicola Medrano: Mustafa is the most gracious, humble & efficient waiter. Tuna tar tar, tuna nicoise, shrimp app.. Amazing. Service & food is amazing!! A++++!!
Harlem Ambassador: The Francophiles say it isn't French, then again, they say that about everything. A casual spot which is a perfect "hide & seek" from the madness of Shrine next door. Great for drinks and lite bites.
