Warmly elegant, Frenchette features a veteran kitchen serving a dining room that melds Old World glamour with New York energy. From breakfast through late-night, chefs Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr make the most of their kitchen’s rotisserie and Robata grill with daily specials crowning a menu that features Duck Frites, Turbot for Two and Spit-Roasted Lobster, all approached with a lighter, more contemporary touch. Aperitif-based cocktails are served at the striking pewter bar and an impressive selection of natural wines is on offer.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: The snazziest French bistro in NYC popped open in 2018, winning a James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant, along with rave reviews and national buzz for chefs Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr. Frenchette’s dramatic black exterior reveals a warm wooden bar and cozy leather banquettes with remarkably friendly staff poised to welcome you at the door. Join the fans feasting on oysters and sausages, pommes frites, pillowy gnocchi Parisienne, and showstopping pistachio Paris-Brest, alongside the acclaimed natural wine list.

Was a good lunch- but bread is $12 extra for the table which, just out of principle, I'm not paying. Steak tartar was on the smaller side, but good. Most of the meals saw come out, including mine, or accompanied with these overly salty, oily, very thin potato chips which may as well be nothing. Fish soup was really tasty- i didn't notice and fish in it, but maybe there was. Only thing disappointing was the oeuf mayonnaise - it's done so much better at upscale restaurants in Paris. Dessert was the best part of the meal - the paris pistache was great- perfect for two. Overall was good, but pricey for what it is.

Had high expectations, unfortunately our waitress was extremely dismissive, intentionally rude, and prioritized other tables around us consistently. Very uncomfortable experience! Not a strong desire to return.

Service was curt/rude. When coffee was cold, server offered to ‘add hot water’ to warm it up. Not normal. So we just paid for another $6 cup of coffee. Then, though 5 people ate different meals, they packed all leftovers in one box: salad with dressing on it, quiche, omelette, fries. This is disrespectful and unhygienic and obviously, everything is soggy and drenched with salad dressing. A waste of a good 20% of our meal, including an untouched quiche.
