Best Contemporary French American Restaurants in Rockefeller Center

Rolls with fresh butter! Short ribs that were fork tender. And the beignets…waitress told us not to be stingy with the sauce and she was right!

Bread service was burnt toast. Weird. Cocktail menus don’t say when there’s egg whites on them, so we had to send back our cocktail. There’s no bread plates or appetizer plates. But the ambience is really pretty, and dinner was good. I don’t know. Mixed review.

The site for the nee Paris Bar has had a number of failed restaurants since the hotel opened. Finally, this is the one that should last. We live around the corner This is our thirrd time since the reopening under Fireman ownership. It has improved each time. The food for lunch was fantastic. The club sandwiches, the croque, the omelette were all as good as they get. Saw the onion soup most others ordered and will try it soon. With 4 fireman restaurants in the area, we are blessed. Along with the new Acadia across the street, we have two of the best new resturants in midtown. Hope they a huge success.

A unique location with rooftop view of the city. A great spot for a cocktail or other drink and soak in a cityscape, but the food was ok rather than extraordinary, really more bar food than anything like a proper meal despite calling some dishes “entrees”. Service was at times distracted despite a relatively quiet evening.

This was a very delightful stop last night! The vibe was great and I loved the decor. The server was friendly and helpful. She recommended an upsell that was great with the tuna caviar tartare. Drinks were well made and tasty. I would definitely recommend stopping in if you’re in the neighborhood for an appetizer and a drink.
