    We loved Le Monde. Our waiter Chance was excellent and especially kind to my 86-year old, irascible mother. The service was excellent and the food was well prepared and tasted so good. We had the florentine Benedict, the salmon Benedict, the 3 egg breakfast, and a scrambled egg for mom 🤗. I have to mention the Bloody Mary was one of the best I’ve had, and the coffee was very good. I was very impressed they had REAL cream, not half and half. So rich and lovely. My 22-year old son wants to bring his gf back here for brunch or date night, he liked it so much! It was very convenient to his UWS apartment and a short uber ride for us from 54th and 6th. Kudos!

    Fresh and excellent omakase, perfectly choreographed and presented, as good or better than any place in NYC that is double the price. No need to cross the bridge for a topnotch experience.
