"It’s no secret that Lucien is seeing a revival, particularly among the downtown art scene. Highlights include the French onion soup, steak frites, lapin a la moutarde (rabbit in a dijon mustard sauce), and duck liver mousse served with pink peppercorns and cornichons. The narrow, warm space is filled with all sorts of paintings of France, and the crowd transitions from an older set of regulars in the early evening to a younger demographic later on. Though the food is good, it’s more of a spot with reliable people-watching." - Melissa McCart
