NYC French Restaurants Are Embracing Casual Luxury Dining | Eater NY
"Part of the new guard blending French farmhouse warmth with British pub‑inspired ease, this spot keeps the look pared down and the atmosphere intimate, with casual, candlelit service that encourages lingering over martinis and wine as meals unfold over hours. Menus begin with snack‑sized bites akin to an amuse bouche, and the best seller is a delicate $12 tartlet filled with sweet shrimp, crème fraîche, and a hint of maple syrup, tucked beneath a shiso leaf for an indulgent yet understated bite of quiet luxury." - Korsha Wilson
