Wilson ZhouAugust 14, 2014Definitely should try duck. If you wanna keep healthy diet with French cuisine, try their duck breast, pretty lean and sided with streamed beans and potato. One of the best French American places.
Holly ParkesOctober 27, 2013Start with a Jameson Manhattan. Ryan the bartender says they must be stirred not shaken. Hanger steak was complimented by the onion sauce and delicately dressed salad. Delish. Ask for Tim or Eric.
Duncan PJSeptember 6, 2014The bone marrow is off the hook. A must vist place for any fan of anthony bourdain. You can also pick up autographed cook books here too.
Why do I like Les Halles? Steak frites and salad is a winner. Always a great bit of beef excellently cooked. Fries check. 1664 on tap check. Great tunes in the bar check. Nothing to complain about!
Ms HeleneDecember 2, 2012Breakfast menu is divided into Parisien and New Yorker - go for pastries and fruit from Parisien and eggs benedict or oatmeal from NYer. Not too busy in the morning and perfect if in a hotel nearby
Eduardo GodinhoMarch 2, 2015VERY GOOD restaurant, the food quality is amazing, the only point is the tables are very close from each other, but we are taking about NY
Damian BayonaOctober 11, 2015Famous for being the restaurant of Anthony Bourdain. The hamburger game is strong and the ambience is what you would expect from a bistro aka white tablecloth vibes
Douglas EllimanJuly 24, 2014A calm and laid back atmosphere with an incredible wine selection and comfortable outdoor seating. We love the escargot here, and always finish our meal with a delicious crepe.
Vicki DanielsApril 29, 2013The food is great, and highly recommend the confit de canard, or filet de boeuf. Get a table while Tricia is working. She's the best there, and will make sure you're taken care of.
Halstead PropertyJuly 10, 2013Prepared tableside, the Steak Tartare is delicately grounded and delicious! An order of their crunchy, rightly oiled truffle fries on the side makes it an even more unforgettable meal.
Melinda ThomasApril 28, 2014I only stopped here for a simple breakfast of toasted baguette and cafe au lait - but the setting was gracious, the service impeccable, and the repast exactly what I wanted. Delightful!
caroline sistareNovember 29, 2015We were kind of worried when it was half full at 10pm on a Friday night, but the food was excellent. Great steak frites, they made up for the not so great service.
Alice MolinariJanuary 10, 2013I tried the Hanger steak and I can say it was the best steak I've ever had. For rare meat lovers only. Oh, and guys, Anthony Bourdain doesn't work here anymore! It's been years!
Diane AlvarezDecember 23, 2012Be transported to Paris but make sure you have a reservation at this popular French bistro you can't go wrong with the steak and fits which is a bargain by city standards- Wilson ZhouDecember 25, 2015There's a reason the rating of this restaurant is dropping cuz the service. I lived in this neighborhood for a while and wrote good tips about their food. But server can be snobby.
2Plus2NYCReviewMay 21, 2011Some of the best steak I have had to date has come from Les Halles. I love all aspects of this place– especially their Bucherie (pick up your meat to cook at home) Check out the rest our review! Read more- Ms HeleneDecember 13, 2012They may have nailed the French bistro food but they do not have soy milk here, fyi. Choose from a Parisien or a NY menu at breakfast and at dinner, the roasted salmon was great. Safe classics here.
Scallops were done perfectly. Also been here for breakfast/brunch many times, great cappuccino and their eggs benedict game is A plus
Rong NguyenJanuary 27, 2012The dish we got was amazing. Filet mignon with salad and crunchy fries great paired up with a San Julian wine. Escargot was amazing and dip the bread in it's buttery sauce.
Kraig ParkinsonJanuary 17, 2015All good tastes here. I enjoyed the steak tartare and the mussels. Devilled eggs were ok, but not special enough to order again. Fries are nice too but not as legendary as most people say.
NearSay NYCJuly 26, 2011N-Sider Brunch Spot: Bagatelle is the quintessential NYC dining experience. A DJ spins house music, you have a spectacular wine list to choose from and the food is très magnifique!
Order the special dessert "Chocolate crème brulee" and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Japan Society for victims of the earthquake and tsunami. It's really delicious and for a good cause!
Susan ClaxtonAugust 17, 2014$1 oysters,clams and shrimp at the bar Monday - Friday. 1/2 price bottles of wine Monday. Frisée with lardons. French onion soup. Steak frites. Classic. Like Fidi more than midtown.
Sam PaniniJune 29, 2014Great service! Hostess found a spot for our stroller and manager moved a table for us to all fit. Very baby friendly!
Carlos TorresSeptember 26, 2011Great menu. I recommend the mushroom ravioli and the tripe entree. Both were excellent. The staff is great and quick. This is a very hip and cool place. I'll be back soon. Thanks guys!
Courtney TrlSeptember 20, 2012If you come here you have to try the steak! Meats are seasoned well and very tender. Service is also impeccable, prepare for a wait though...
Behrad EatsFebruary 16, 2016Must order the Côte de Boef for two at this brasserie which was Anthony Bourdain's old stomping grounds.
NathanJanuary 5, 2015A bit on the pricey side for what it is ($10 for the onion soup?), but you really can't go wrong here when you're craving some steak frites.
A&B American StyleFebruary 5, 2014Bourdain writes in his book about oysters as part of his culinary awakening as a child. Make this oyster happy hour part of yours Read more
Peter FacatselisMarch 13, 2013Great bistro food. Not overpriced and portions aren't over the top huge or minuscule French portions. Muscles and beef tartare are a must
Geoffroy BablonJuly 17, 2014Still hungry after your steak frites? Try the chocolate mousse, the crème brûlée, or the crêpes suzette.- Try the Chicken Fricassee - Simple prep with tarragon carrots garlic and onions awesome part of restaurant week 34dollars thee courses
Marjorie DFebruary 28, 2015The food here is really good and it has very nice ambiance. The lunchtime service isn't the greatest; they're slow and miss a lot of things.
Justin OrdovezaSeptember 19, 2014The cassoulet is small but it's still hearty with the sausage, pork and duck.
Nuree ChoeDecember 3, 2013Steak! And steak frites! The cheesecake here is really delicious and fluffy. Looks dense but it isn't.
Arielle SpiegelFebruary 16, 2013If you appreciate a good roast chicken, get it here. Skin is perfectly crispy! I order it almost every time.
Alex T.March 5, 2014La bavette, definitely L'onglet and those Truffled french fries. Oh! And those truffled french fries.
Katie FlynnJanuary 5, 2012As recommended by Tim the waiter, get the filet mignon with the au poivre sauce. The burger is also one of the best in the city!
Michael Fox-RabinovitzSeptember 19, 2015Solid French food option, foie Gras, escargot and deviled eggs worth a try
Aydin OnerMay 12, 2015Very good indeed. Make sure you had a reservation you may not be as luck as me☺️
Sarah LuvisottoFebruary 15, 2012Go for the côte de boeuf. That is the best meat of my LIFE! And as a foodie, that means a lot.
- Amanda KellyFebruary 17, 2015There's a cool virtual tour for this place. It's a great way to check out the ambiance before you go! Read more
- allisonFebruary 11, 2015Cozy late night eats and atmosphere for steak frites by Chef Phillip via Anthony Bourdain.
Amanda HurleyNovember 16, 2011The Steak Frites here is the best. If you're flexible they offer 50% of 50 wines on Monday - Score!
