Lori LuoAugust 13, 2014Try one of the signature burgers here, such as the Frenchie: a 6 oz. beef patty with pork belly confit, arugula, tomato-onion compote, and melted morbier cheese.
Daniel BouludJuly 30, 2014When I’m at DBGB I let our sommelier recommend his favorite beer of the moment and pair it with one of our charcutier’s homemade sausages. For dessert, the spectacular baked Alaska is my go-to.
Michael NataleJuly 21, 2015Go with a group and try as many different things as possible. Exquisite variety of beer and wine to accompany an exhilarating array of sausages and other bites. Artistically modern gastropub. Love it.
Nicolette RomeroApril 11, 2015The front bar area is perfect for a big group celebration! The space is impressive and the decor is sleek. The food? So good! Try one of the sausages and go with the burger or salmon.
Stina P.January 12, 2014pots from kitchens of all of boulud's friends surround you as you eat. so does the friendliest staff. braised tuscan kale, beaujolaise, & frenchie are musts. the restaurant is beautiful inside & out.
Jonny BJanuary 24, 2016If doing the bottomless brunch ordering the French toast signifies the end of the drinks. Beware the French toast! Order more drinks first!! Food is great by the way.
Duarte EspindolaSeptember 30, 2015Great price, excelent ambiance and amazing food. I know that the sausages are the best thing here, but I had the Icelandic Cod and really loved it! I strongly recommend it.
TK 🍦🍷August 4, 2015A fantastic menu (sausage, anyone?) with a selection of Shandys on the drink menu! I had an omelet & it was the creamiest, fluffiness egg experience I've ever had. Sitting outside is also quite nice.
Akansha AgarwalMarch 6, 2014Vegetarians: the potato gnocchi is a MUST! The beet salad was a great appetizer as well (or a meal if you're not too hungry--it's a pretty big portion). Ladies: the DB spritzer was a delish drink!
Ira BDecember 16, 2014Omg the burgers. Good bar, great food, nice spot. I would definitely recommend for a group dinner or double date. Easy to make a reservation also since the place has a good amount of seating.
Ben BearnotMarch 5, 2015Still crazygood after all these years. Can't go wrong with the sausages or burgers. Bartender and sommelier were super helpful for picking the perfect beer, wine, or cocktail to pair with food.
CarolineJanuary 21, 2016I came here during the limited menu hour, but I was still impressed by the burgers we had and the amazing beer selection, including some rare sours!
Michelle CheungMay 25, 2013DBGB is consistently good. You can almost always grab a spot in the bar area w/c has the same menu as the main room. Faves r the matzo ball soup, thai sausage, & piggie. Awesome beer selection, too!
Emilio VitoloDecember 31, 2014Definitely get "The Piggie" it's a 7oz beef patty topped with housemade pulled pork, jalapeo mayonnaise & boston lettuce on a cheddar bun with mustard-vinegar slaw...this burger melts in your mouth
Carlo MFebruary 28, 2013Must get the saucissons! Try the Boudin Basque (blood & pig's head saussage) and Beaujolaise. Also get a liter stein of any of their 22 craft beers on tap.
AlyssaJune 11, 2016Excellent calamari, burgers and sausage. Definitely try the Thai sausage with the basil fried rice and quail egg, amazing!!
Jeni BulcockMarch 1, 2015Enjoy the theatrics of when a suckling pig roast gets sent to the table, and try to spot Anthony Bourdain's name in the main dining area.
Checkout the basic Yankee cheeseburger cooked to perfection. This picture should be enough to make you order this amazing burger and fries combo.
Ms HeleneJanuary 22, 2016Petite plateau for 2 people $46 incl tuna tartare, crab, shrimp, oysters, mussels, clams & razor clams. Skip chopped salad $15
Daniel Boulud's gift to lower NY, Daniel food at East Village prices. What a gift. Theres a reason why its 4 deep at the bar. And you have one of the greatest french chefs in the world....
New York PostJune 11, 2013Must try: the French-inspired Meyer Lemon Pistachio Sundae ($9) with creamy pistachio ice cream playing off tart lemon sorbet, spongy petit madeleines and crunchy thyme-infused meringues. Read more
Chefs FeedOctober 2, 2015"This is one terrific dish. The tuna is expertly cut. I can't wait to go back for their sweetbreads." Chef Todd Richards Read more
Danyel SmithAugust 21, 2014tuna crudo is fine. shrimp cocktail is fine. but this is a meaty establishment. get the sausage. get "the Vermont." also: great cocktails. + not as crowded a place as u think.
RichardJuly 23, 2014Heaven is lined with goblets of peach cassis. The sweetest dreams fit in a glass bowl at DBGB. Frenchie and steak were delightful, but returning just for dessert is not even a question.
Susan LohJanuary 10, 2014Fantastic 3-course prixe fixe lunch option for $27. If they have the roasted beet appetizer, get it!
Ryan WilliamsNovember 14, 2012"The glittering Plateau De Fruits De Mar menus can be ordered from the raw bar, the green market menu, or “For the Table” during brunch. Whichever platter (Petit $35.00, Grand $65, Royale $90)..." Read more
New York HabitatNovember 17, 2011Named after CBGB, Daniel Boulud has created a great environment here. Come here for lunch and get the prix fixe for $27. We recommend the lamb merguez sausage or piggie burger.
Ashley RoseJanuary 1, 2015Going out with a group? Try the whole hog dinner for 6-8, amazing service and so delicious. Do unlimited beer or magnums of wine to top off the night.
kate nies brighamFebruary 26, 2012Fabulous all around. Swank but cozy decor, friendly and impeccable service. The plateau de fruits de mer is an awesome starter to share, and the burger was worth breaking my vegetarianism for!
Jason MesiarikJuly 11, 2012If you get here before 7 the prix fixe is a great value.Le pied de cochon paired with asparagus and a can franc is outstanding!
Brendan SpiegelFebruary 22, 2012You know hot dogs have gone gourmet for good when even Daniel Boulud has one on the menu. Made from ground beef shoulder, this fancy frank comes on a house-made bun with spicy mustard and fresh relish Read more
Durga UsagiSeptember 18, 2011othing but FANTASTIC things to say about this place. me and mr have been here a handful of times and is ALWAYS one of our FAV places to go on weekends. ALWAYS treated us like kings.i vote HELL YA
Food & WineMay 12, 2011Star chef Daniel Boulud's gastropub, serves three heaping burgers: The Piggy, with pulled pork and jalapeño mayo; The Yankee, with Essex St. pickles; and The Frenchie, topped with confit pork belly.
Cara MocciaFebruary 20, 2013Order Dessert. All of them. Meyer Lemon & Pistachio Sundae may be one of the best things I've ever tasted. Gran Marnier Soufflé? Need I say more??!!
Chef Boulud scores again! Order the boudin basque (blood sausage), iceberg and chive salad, head cheese, burgers, fries, and matzo ball soup. If you are there when the chocolate beer is in season, it
seth meyerowitzAugust 18, 2012Food here is excellent. Servings are a buy small for the money though. They have a full pig option that ull need to give them 72hours notice on. Table next to us had it. Looked great.
Kt LacasseJanuary 18, 2016Went for restaurant week lunch and it was awesome! The burger was smokey and delicious, and the dessert was delightful
Elie KardousNovember 29, 2011Daniel Boulud French gastropub meets downtown chic: their bloody marys are a killer. Also delicious brunch, like their chevre-herbed omelette. Their Frenchie burger is amazing.
Great food, attentive staff, and cool deco!!! Everything you order is enjoyable.
HOBNOB MagazineFebruary 21, 2011meat-eaters gather 'round! great fish too. I am sticking to eating at the bar after bad service one time...see photos here:
The Corcoran GroupMay 21, 2010Excellent, rustic French fare. All the burgers are dynamite; however our favorite is “The Frenchie”. If you’re up before 11AM on a Sunday, try the brunch which is equally delicious.
Don't sleep on this chocolate-hazelnut sundae. These people know what they're doing. Get it after dinner here or come in just for this dessert.
Serious no-holds-barred gut-busting high-end burgers & sausages & delicious cocktails that pack a punch. I can never seem to resist ending with a decadent ice cream sundae. Leave your diet at home.
Lisa GarciaDecember 1, 2011You can't go wrong with any of the meats. Also, the desserts are delightful, and the atmosphere is amazing. Definitely among my top 5 restaurants in NYC.
The Spark GroupJune 13, 2011Chic with a great atmosphere. Our recommendations: the Louisiane sausage and the Tunisienne on a bun with mint yogurt. Main dish? The steak frites & the lamb duo are spectacular.
Natalie AnilloMarch 6, 2015LOVED! Get the roasted beets salad, cavatelli with duck and mushrooms, and mint chocolate ice cream sundae. A+
