Le Parisien is the go-to neighborhood bistrot for Murray Hill, offering classic French food like steak frites, escargots and moules marinieres, paired with a well-edited list of french wines.
Chef Johnathan Masse brings his expert knowledge of comfort food, having most recently served as sous chef at the Waverly Inn, and also for Chef Jonathan Waxman of Barbuto. Along with owner Christian Merand, formerly of Jean-Claude in Soho, they have created a restaurant that focuses on serving consistently great traditional food with a lively and unmistakeably French atmosphere.

Also open daily for lunch and brunch on weekends.

We have never been disappointed at this neighborhood gem. Our spinach salad, as well as the escargot, were excellent prefaces to delicious entrees (the cod special and trout). Cocktails lovely, and apple tarte was a fine ending to the meal.

Such a great neighborhood place. Feels like you’re in a Parisian bistro. Food and service are always excellent. Much more reasonably priced than other NYC French restaurants. Can’t recommend it enough.

A little bit of Paris in this small 32 seat bistro with French posters, tin ceiling, and French music. The best roast chicken ever. Excellent mussels and frites. Of course we ended with delicious profiteroles. Expect sitting close to a dining neighbor, but it’s so worth it. Everything on the menu is outstanding.
