    What a night in Paris, the ambiance was amazing moderate but yet very appropriate for the evening. Started the evening with a quick drink at the bar while we waited for our table. Then got seated to our table, started with SOUPE À L’OIGNON which was amazing very flavorful and the perfect amount of Gruyère cheese. For our entree my wife ordered the SAUMON RÔTI and I ordered the FAUX-FILET BERCY medium rare. The meal was amazing and we will definitely be coming back! Had to end the night with a CRÈME BRÛLÉE and BASQUE CHEESECAKE w/ mixed berry coulis. (Also took the PROFITEROLES to go).

    Came here for the first time with my girlfriend on Valentine’s Day. We were welcomed and seated quickly. Our waitress was very attentive even though it was a busy evening. The food came out fast and was absolutely delicious (we ordered the salmon, steak frites, mac and cheese and mash potatoes). Only small complaint was that the mash potatoes was cold but the waitress addressed this issue easily and got us another one. The drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was very romantic. Our waitress even helped us take some pictures together. Overall wonderful experience and we will be going back for sure. 10/10 would recommend.

    The Cafe Cluny is a West Village treasure still worthy of its reputation. It's a cozy establishment that specializes in French cuisine and you better make a reservation in advance; it's always packed. I love the French Onion soup, the burgers and frites--also the seafood is always fresh and well prepared. I live in the neighborhood and it is one of my good-to places. Bravo.
