    I’ve been to Le Bouchon over 10+ within the last year - and this recent time, we did not enjoy majority of the dishes. Our all time favorite are the mussels and they were EXTREMELY salty this time - didn’t even want to finish the broth or dip our bread in it. Not sure if it’s a new recipe or kitchen has a heavy hand, but most of our food was too salty to eat. Will be giving it another shot next week but would love this feedback communicated with the kitchen.

    Wonderful experience, the food was excellent, our waiter was very knowledgeable. The ambience is elegant and cozy and since it was a Monday night it was quiet. We will definitely come back and try more items on the menu.

    La Serre is one of my favorite restaurants. It is such a stylish atmosphere with great views of Fulton Market. Our waiter was funny and helpful. Every bite was delicious. We celebrated a birthday with our young adults and they all loved it. We enjoyed seafood and steaks. All were perfectly seasoned and prepared.

    We dined at Chez Joel, unfortunately after too long of a layoff, to celebrate my wife's 65th birthday. The restaurant is as good as I remember and did not disappoint. I will definitely try to go there on a more regular basis in the future. We had excellent service from Omar. Thanks for another great meal!!
