    Celebrated my birthday here for the 2nd year in a row. Didn’t think that we would ever repeat last year’s dinner. But, last night was the best meal and service we have had in the city in a long time. Everyone from our waiter, manager and sommelier were fantastic. We will definitely not wait a year before we come back.

    La Grand Boucherie was very close to our hotel and had great reviews so had to give it a try! It was delicious! The Beef Bourguignon was amazing! My company had the Filet Mignon, French Onion Soup and Steak Tartare. Everything was delicious, and there were no complaints! I had a non-alcoholic cocktail which was also surprisingly delicious! The atmosphere was also excellent, especially near Christmas time. We were in a rush to get to a show, but I wish we had time to stay for dessert. We would definitely go back again! The price for quality matched.

    We had a delightful dinner experience at Le Rivage. Our server took our drink orders when we sat down for dinner. I ordered the French onion soup for dinner. The onion soup was wonderful served with a baguette. My husband ordered the mussels which he thought were fantastic. I had the chocolate mousse for dessert. The chocolate mousse was delicious. My husband had the profiteroles for dessert. There were two of them which were amazing. When we needed to leave for the theater, I knocked my earring out of my ear. We looked but couldn’t find it. A couple servers came over to help us look for the diamond. The one server found my earring. They were so kind to help us when the restaurant was quite busy. I highly recommend Le Rivage for a wonderful dinner along with kindness.

    This was our second time dining at Marseille, having dined there last year during our annual visit to NYC to see the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. That visit was very good, and this visit was excellent. The food is excellent, and the service is outstanding. I had the risotto to start, and the shortribs for my main course, and my companion had the salmon. All were done to perfection, and perfectly seasoned. For dessert I had the fresh berries with cream, and she had the raspberry sorbet. A couple of the things I liked about the restaurant was they did not have a laundry list of specials, which can be annoying to me. They also don't have a "diner" menu that encompasses four or five pages. It's just two pages, which tells me they prefer to concentrate on what they do well. Our server, Emilio, was attentive and knowledgeable, and I didn't spend an inordinate amount of time trying to get his attention. If your in Midtown Manhattan, and you wish to dine in an excellent French restaurant, go to Marseille.
