"At Le B in Greenwich Village I savor the 45-day dry-aged Le Burger, an eight-ounce patty made from a proprietary blend of 90% 45-day dry-aged rib eye plus short loin, brisket, and chuck, served at the bar only (nine are available per night and can be reserved with a $25 deposit at market price). It’s topped with triple-cream d’Affinois cheese, Cabernet onions caramelized for eight hours, and a brioche bun — a combination that reviewers say lives up to the hype and evokes a French sensibility." - Amelia Schwartz
"On its third appearance this season, chef Angie Mar’s upscale French restaurant remains a clear favorite — Seema really, really, really loves it — and she and Carrie return to the bar to sip cocktails." - Nadia Chaudhury
"A fancy French restaurant that Seema returns to this season; she and Carrie are seated at a prime corner table by the windowfront, drink martinis, and use it as the backdrop for another catch-up—fitting for a spot tied to her series of earlier bad dates." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Le B serves the kind of luxurious, decadent food that would require a dress code if it were uptown. Instead, this restaurant brings West Village cool to European-inspired dishes like Dungeness crab Wellington and pheasant in champagne sauce. The room, painted a nautical navy blue, does look like it belongs to someone with a roman numeral at the end of their name. But an oversized Art Deco chandelier and some sultry mood lighting keep it from feeling stuffy. Bring a visitor who has money to blow, and wants an uptown-downtown experience without straying north of 14th Street." - team infatuation
"Le B is fussy even by West Village standards. The upscale Continental restaurant features blue velvet banquettes under an Art Deco chandelier, and serves food that wouldn’t feel out of place at a banquet thrown by an Astor. A $60 check for rabbit and duckling royale seems quite reasonable. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - bryan kim
