Noah WeissOctober 2, 2015Trendy, delicious new French "small plates" style restaurant from the Pearl & Ash team. Won a Michelin star in its first year. Lamb tartare and fluke with brown butter sauce. Lots of <$60 red wines.
One of the very best restaurants I've been to in a long while. We had the fluke and scallops to start, the chicken and the duck and the chocolate dessert. Also the cheese course. Portions are v small
Yukari EndoFebruary 22, 2016I went there on Sunday Brunch with 2 friends. The selection of redwine from France was impressive. Desert was also very good. Ambience of decor was industrial chic and airly space. Love this place👼
Marc JacobsJune 4, 2015Brick, hardwood, and marble interiors make it a little hard to hear and the service can be comically over-attentive at times, but the food with wine pairings were stellar (esp. the duck). Recommended.
Bin YangDecember 30, 2015One, two - same appetizer size. Three - small entree size. Four - desserts. Beef tartare, chicken, duck are standouts. Good looking wine selection but fun east/west coast selection of beers too.
Kathleen CorlessJuly 4, 2015Loved the leek, the lamb tartar, the chicken and the chocolate. The scallops and the sweetbreads also solid. The cheese plate is worth skipping. The first course is really the standout here- Valentin GuerinJanuary 31, 2016Seat at the chef's counter and watch the kitchen like you would watch a movie, great food (try the tartare) and cocktails.
Nathan BartonNovember 4, 2016Order the wine, they have 1,000 different ones. Also the scallops are good, fluke, beef tartare and duck were all great
Rory ParnessMarch 4, 2017Start off with the carrot and hen of the woods appetizer. It's so good they will make it as main if you ask but whatever you do, save room for the duck!
Anna K.March 5, 201693 pages of drinks menu. Brunch is really good and Bloody Mary selection is definitely the must. Mezcal Bloody garnished with pickled brussels sprout is freakin' awesome.
Brian ChevyJuly 7, 2015Very solid French with some great updates on classic dishes. The duck was amazing and can't go wrong with chicken or pork either. Start with the fluke or leeks.
Stephanie WuDecember 24, 2015get the eggplant. they cook it three ways: pickled, cured, and fried. chicken might appear boring on the menu but it's super tender with a perfectly crisped skin
Andy ChapmanAugust 4, 2015Great food and atmosphere, nice presentation though it is is a bit pricey for the amount of food you get. Try the scallops 2nd course and the duck breast 3rd.
Andy DunnOctober 7, 2015Outstanding new Michelin star restaurant. Eggplant app, squash, and Chablis wine. Limited offering but veggie friendly. Great vibe, date spot; sat at the bar.
bilal ercanJune 23, 2016Good prices for a one-michelin star restaurant.Service is avarage.Everthing was delicious.meat,deserts worths tasting.Smoked olives are unbelievable.a little bit noisy. Worths to go.
TainaMay 16, 2015Try the tartare, duck and dessert called Paris brest. Avoid the cheese plate, which by far is the oddest way I've had cheese served before, in a huge sliced pile.
Sam WinnickAugust 20, 2015Food here is incredible. Flavors are amazing. Get the leeks, duck and chicken. Chocolate dessert.
DanFebruary 4, 2017Come here for the wine. Probably the best French and American wine list in NYC. The food is solid, but not outstanding, and a bit expensive.
Kirsten AlanaDecember 20, 2015Their "Bloody Bar" is a must. Literally a cart that rolls around so your Bloody Mary is made at your table. Get the Bloody Bull.
Aja BrandmanNovember 6, 2016Food was delicious, not doubt about that. Only downside is that the service was extremely slow and the whole meal ended up taking two hours. European dining & NYC dining are very different
Zayed KhanFebruary 18, 2016The best scallop preparation and lobster preparation I've had in a long time. Definite highlights of the menu.
Tim AnnanOctober 7, 2017Great ambience, wine list is insanely good, proteins and flavors are on point. Great brunch spot, too.
The New YorkerMay 28, 2015"Rebelle is one of those places that regard the wine with as much seriousness as the food." Read more
Andres ZirlingerMay 14, 2017Great for brunch. Croissants are to die for! Service has not been the best (friendly but disorganized)
David DunhillOctober 28, 2015The cocktails by Eben Klein are on point. Swing by for a Clover Club and admire the beautiful people.
David ShapiroMay 16, 2015Wine service is excellent, let them slowly guide you where you need to be. Food was great from start to finish. Dessert was as strong as the savory courses.
Carl-Adam ScheeleFebruary 21, 2016Beef tartar amazing, coconut dessert as well. V good lobster second!
Shirin SalernoMarch 11, 2016Went for brunch, need to go back for dinner. Thought the brunch was okay, bit over the top for the meal so dinner is probably a better time
jeffrey arnoldMarch 18, 2016Amazing wine list. Solid service. Food is OK, but inconsistent and the 3/4-course model is overpriced, IMO.
Joseph MarchettiJanuary 2, 2016See Zachary the bartender he is an amazing host and so knowledgeable.
Jonathan SmithOctober 5, 2015Swish place, great service. Just such a shame the $9 sea urchin special gave me food poisoning.
