"When: Daily, 3:30-5:30pm The Deal: $1.50 Blue Point oysters, select appetizers discounted Marseille bills itself as one of Broadway’s favorite dining destinations—and while we’ve never spotted Lin Manuel Miranda there reviewing sheet music over steak frites, you will find plenty of theater goers having pre-show meals at this Hell's Kitchen restaurant. There are no drink specials to go with your discounted oysters, but they do knock a few dollars off their dinner menu classics like escargot and duck liver mousse." - willa moore, neha talreja, will hartman
"Marseille bills itself as one of Broadway’s favorite dining destinations—and while we’ve never spotted Ben Platt there reviewing sheet music over moules frites, you will find plenty of theater-goers having pre-show dinners and green Ricard apéritifs at this warm French brasserie. The menu is standard, but the tartare, escargots, and steak frites do not disappoint, and they’ve got a fun oyster Happy Hour. Marseille doesn't have the Parisian cool of Frenchette or Le French Diner, but, surprisingly, it doesn't feel as dated as a Times Square-adjacent white tablecloth restaurant could." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, sonal shah, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick
"Marseille bills itself as one of Broadway’s favorite dining destinations—and while we’ve never spotted Ben Platt there reviewing sheet music over moules frites, you will find plenty of theater goers having pre-show dinners and mysterious green aperitifs at this warm French brasserie. The menu is standard, but the tartare, escargots, and duck frites do not disappoint, and they’ve got a pretty fun oyster Happy Hour. This place doesn't have the Parisian cool of Frenchette or Le French Diner, but, surprisingly, it doesn't feel as dated as a Times Square-adjacent white tablecloth restaurant could. Stop by for a pre-Broadway meal and get the aforementioned lava lamp green Ricard apéritif from their well-stocked bar." - Neha Talreja
