Frenchette

I’ve been wanting to come to this restaurant ever since @TheCarboholic from Instagram said that it has one of the best pancakes in NYC. The hype is for real. The pancake is amazing! Crisp edges and a light and fluffy interior. I also ordered a latte and a baguette with French butter. Everything was great. The staff is very friendly. The only thing I would advise to people when they’re coming to this restaurant is that it’s a bit pricey. I would definitely come back to try other items from the menu. Overall, this is a great restaurant.

I just wanted to share that my family and I had an amazing experience here. My parents were visiting me in New York from France, and we stopped by for drinks at the bar. The bartender took such thoughtful and genuine care of us — it was truly exceptional. I’ve never experienced service like that in NYC! We were so impressed and wish we had gotten his name to thank him properly. Also, the eggs and bread with butter were absolutely delicious — and that’s saying something coming from a French family! Thank you, Frenchette and the bartender. We’ll definitely be back for dinner. The atmosphere was wonderful!

We came here for dinner on a Wednesday and loved it! They serve wonderfully elevated French brasserie style food in a buzzy setting. We were surprised at how busy it was mid week but after sampling a few dishes I can see why. I started with a salt cod spread served with toast followed by the beef tartare - both excellent. My partner’s starter of pasta was also nice but felt it was a bit small for the price. But the sea bass she ordered was one of the stars of the night. Perfectly cooked and the fennel seed rub was simply amazing! The other star was the pistachio dessert which is a must order. I definitely look forward to a return visit!

Been meaning to go here for years. Did not disappoint. Only had dessert and drinks but will def come back for dinner. Update: Went for Labor Day lunch and it was very good. We even saw a few celebrities like one of the OG Iron Chefs. Interested in trying the winter dinner menu.

Frenchette has a cozy vibe and truly feels French. The food was outstanding — honestly better than many Michelin-starred places I’ve tried. The duck was the absolute highlight, cooked to perfection, and I can’t wait to have it again. For dessert, we had the Paris-Brest with pistachio cream — such a creative twist and absolutely delicious! Service was warm and attentive, even though the restaurant was completely packed. I’ll definitely be back for both the duck and the dessert.

The steak and fish soup were outstanding. Usually the chicken is really good but it was a little dry tonight and not amazing. Cocktails were yummy but some are light so if you are looking for a drink drink, you might have to order one proper. We had a super early reservation so got to choose the table and the restaurant quickly filled up. Atmosphere was always nice and service was good (by US standards) I found the appetizers stronger than the mains with the exception of the steak. That I think is a must have. French fries to die for and mashed potatoes were just heavenly.
