Best French American Restaurants in Douglaston

My second time here and I have a new favorite. Food is very good, ambiance is comfortable and intimate and it feels like a place to both have a good relaxing dinner or celebrate a special occasion.

Came to Port Washington from Garden City on a recommendation of a "nice little bistro" in the French tradition...Had a very early dinner before 6PM on a typically busy Valentines Day. All liquid refreshments were better than the average fare at many French restaurants that I've dined in and the service was particularly attentive and cordial. It was good to hear Maurice Chevalier and Edith Pilaf when we could early in the evening, but that was quickly turned down by the ambient noise and chatter. So much for the early ambiance. Escargot, French onion soup and mussels (anise Pinod) all absolutely excellent as was the Chocolate mousse....Even the smallest detail of warm banquet was wonderful for absorbing any of the rich sauces. The main dishes and chalk board specials were more than plenty for any taste.....My only difficulty was the table tops (sizes) were too small for the dishes that sit on them and the dining area was too small for the number of tables. As such elbowing a dining neighbor had potential to create conflict as things were tight. My recommend: remove a table or two if not anticipating a full dining fair and raise the music.

Lovely room with high ceilings and a barn-like feel. I ordered the branzino and it was to die for. Excellent service as well. A lovely choice for the Upper West Side. We'll be back!

Fun venue. Great, happy vibe. Food was perfect. Sections to enjoy bars, dining, hang out by high tops.

The service and salon ambiance are top notch. Felt the pastries were not fresh fresh and the caviar service could be much better presented. The caviar blinis were actually a bit cold, and we called for more. There is room for content improvement, but high style points.
