Jason Mesiarik: Great value - a crisp green salad with mustard vinaigrette followed by steak frites (free refills on steak & fries!!!) for just $25!
Paul Sanwald: This is a fantastic place for an indulgent dinner. Green salad, steak, and frites. Just perfect.
Leslie Hutchinson: Everything above is true. Rare steak, refills on food, moderately priced vino, what's not to like!
Will Andrich: Mixed greens salad is excellent
Benedetta Spreafico: Food is great, cocktails are great, service is great, location is great, aperitivo is...guess what?
Jean Poh: Service sub par. Lots if co fusion over simple drink orders and required a lot of hand holding. Let the tourists have this one, I'm not keen.

Andrew C: Quite authentic French cuisine and extensive wine list!!! The escargot was small, but tasty and all the fish dishes (+fries) we ordered were all cooked perfectly and delicious
Eater: The bar room is a cool place for after-work cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, and on the weekends, Benoit serves one of the best brunches in Midtown (it includes a dessert buffet). [Eater 38 Member]
nymag: The three-course, $25 lunchtime prix fixe menu is one of the better deals in midtown. And per Adam Platt, the signature tarte flambée is worth a special trip. Read more.

Loukas Petridis: By far the freshest sushi i ve had. The salmon carpacio, mother and daughter, box dinner we're all amazing.
Dens: Omakase from the downstairs sushi bar is amazing. Don't leave without trying the hand rolls (go spicy tuna!). I was also digging the salmon-meets-blowtorch sushi. Ask for fresh wasabi too.
New York Habitat: If you are a sushi lover, this is the right place! Make sure to try their spicy tuna rolls, and Sushi & Sashimi Combination. And the prices are good for what you get!

Natalie Miyake: Fabulous find in midtown east. Nice space, great appetizers and large wine selection. Try the salmon tartare with avocado.
Harry: Nice, cozy little wine bar. Decent selection of wines and finger food. Conveniently located. However, the music does not suit the place and decor imho
Sexy LF: Nice selection of wines by the glass and a great, classy after-work scene. This isn't your popcorn and peanuts on the counter crowd.
