amooliaDecember 2, 2011Macaroni au gratin is gruyere decadence. You must have the warm shrimp salad for lunch with a side of pomme frites and don't you dare ask for ketchup.
Bullfrog & BaumJanuary 24, 2011This chic brasserie serving traditional bistro fare has the freshest baguettes since they make it in-house. You cannot go wrong ordering their Artisanal cured meats or Steak Frittes.

- Outstanding entrées include boeuf bourguignon with fresh buttered pasta and steak frites with peppercorn sauce. Fridays: try the seafood-rich bouillabaisse. Sundays: go for the coq au vin.
David AbelmanDecember 11, 2016Nice atmosphere in one of Steven Starr original restaurants. Food is consistently good.
The petit plateau is neither petit nor a plateau. Discuss. And order it. The most economical and pretty amazing raw bar platter you and 3 friends won't finish.
Philadelphia MagazineOctober 6, 2010Go there for the Croque Madame. Grilled Black Forest ham, Mornay sauce and a fried egg, open-faced on Buttered, toasted brioche. The perfect brioche is made in-house. Read more

I was extremely impressed how they treated rude guest. food-service-prices ALL GOOD- GiancarloApril 18, 2012Oysters and a Warm Shrimp Salad are a great lunch combo. If you're in a big group, go for the Grand Plateau.
