Bistro Vendome - NYCBistro Vendome Wows AgainThis restaurant continues to be our favorite French bistro in NYC. The food is always perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. I've mentioned it before, but the Beet, Bacon, and Blue Cheese Salad is simply outstanding. The service is impeccable, and both the owner and the Maître d'hôtel are highly visible and attentive. The wines by the glass are quite well-chosen, tasting much more expensive than their actual cost. This restaurant reminds me of good, old-fashioned European value - it's not about the buzz, or a celebrity chef. It's about the basics, pure and simple. Every time we come, we wonder why we don't eat here every night.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMnever disappointedGreat restaurant. So lucky to for it to be right up my street.

The food was absolutely delicious (I had tuna tartare and sea scallops) and they were perfect. Nice wine, an outdoor dining area (closed as it wasn't quite warm enough yet) and very good service made for a terrific dining experience. Highly recommended.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMGlad you're in my neighborhoodI am a frequentor of this restaurant at least once a month. Each time and each occasion, we are treated very well by the staff.
