"A French restaurant in Union Square, closed after a brief revival." - Paolo Bicchieri
"It doesn’t get more over-the-top French than this restaurant in the Cornell Hotel de France which has been open since the late 1960s and recently reopened after closing in 2020. The bistro is named for the patron saint of the French town Orleans, and dishes like braised rabbit and desserts like Grand Marnier soufflé channel rustic French cooking. The dining room, replete with gallic artifacts, should (but doesn’t) require a passport." - Dianne de Guzman
"In the same vein as the reopened Starlite, French restaurant Jeanne D’Arc mounted a comeback after new ownership took over the hotel in which the restaurant is housed. But unlike Starlite, Jeanne D’Arc retained its kooky decor of statues and paintings, and former chef Bernard Moutal is back for the restaurant’s return. Indulge in garlicky escargot and coq au vin during a dinner visit; also, word on the street is diners can request an off-menu souffle a day in advance." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri
"After a long closure, Jeanne d’Arc Restaurant is back in action in the basement of the Hotel Cornell near Union Square. The French spot is all about the old-school, baroque vibes with gold-and-red frescos covering the walls and elaborate chandeliers. On the menu, it’s classics galore: escargots in garlic, butter, and parsley; coq au vin; and lapin chausseur with mushrooms, herbs, and red wine shallot sauce." - Dianne de Guzman, Lauren Saria
"This nearly 50-year-old Union Square French bistro has returned after closing in 2020 with lots of its former staff and the same medieval decor inside. The menu is a la carte, with classic French dishes like a braised rabbit and a coq a vin, plus a soufflé that you have to request with your reservation. " - Ricky Rodriguez
