My friend and I stopped at Bistro Les Amis because she was craving onion soup. We were delighted by it. The soup ($16.00) was good, the environment good, and the attention very cordial. I added just a few pictures, including one of my soup after I started it. Visit this place, you will enjoy it.

My boyfriend and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary last night at the restaurant. It didn’t disappoint us. We had a corner table and able to sit side by side (this made it easy for sharing the delicious food) with candlelight behind us. It was dimly lit and some smooth jazz playing in the background. The noise level was perfect and we were able to have a conversation without having to yell. Vibes were romantic. Apps: Foie gras, steak tartare, and jumbo shrimp Entrees: braised lamb shank and duck Rankings 1) Lamb shank 2) Duck (my boyfriend said the foie gras) 3) foie gras 4) steak tartare 5) shrimp I paired my apps with the veratini and my entree with the oyster bay Pinot noir. The lamb shank fell off the bone. I loved the cherry mixed in the wild rice in my duck dish. It was cooked perfectly at medium rare. The foie gras mixed with Concord grapes and poached apple paired nicely with fatty liver. The tartare was presented beautifully, it had the perfect amount of mustard. The shrimp was refreshing and cleaned our palate. We wholeheartedly enjoyed every bite of every dish and worth visiting again.

Nice French bistro. I suggest the outside tables so you can catch all the night life passing by. The rib eye was a weekend special and it was really good, just partially over cooked it. I suggest the frisse salad also.

I used to go here a lot when I worked in the area (over 7 years ago) and this was my first time back post-pandemic. NYC changes a lot over time but this place keeps on going because it is that good. Charming ambiance. Excellent and kind service. Small but great wine list and amazing food at reasonable prices for the area (i.e not $80-100 an entree). I have a gluten allergy so appreciate that everything is labeled and most of the menu is available.
