Food Scene

Great food, especially for brunch. Food is french and they make their own croissants and pain au chocolat in the mornings sometimes. Service can be slow, but the food is worth it.

Best brunch on the UES, but be prepared to wait for at least 45 minutes. Food is excellent during lunch and dinner, but prices are higher (but I think worth it!)

This place is small, but good fancy beers and the food is excellent. Be prepared for crowds if you go at peak times. Mac and cheese is the best.
