Cercle RougeCercle Rouge never lets us down!Their weekend clown was a draw for me during my first visit at Cercle Rouge but the food had us coming back for more. As a single mom finding a place that is both kid friendly and serve awesome food is a rarity. They welcome children and are patient with them running around and enjoying Mr. Diggity the clown as the adults sit and enjoy the great food. The Croque Monsieur and the Oeufs en Meurette are our go to favorites. Their prix fixe menu is both affordable and offers a wide selection. We will definietly return!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMagnifique!!!Formidable!!! My wife and I haven't had a red wine sauce worthy of the name, in New York, in decades, until last Saturday at Cercle Rouge; we asked for spoons. The dish, consisting of braised pork shank, celeriac, and a small, garliky salad, made for a wonderful combination of textures and flavors. Cercle Rouge, with its talented, imaginative, French chef is the perfect antidote to the tasteless, boring offerings that pass for French cuisine on the NY restaurant scene these days.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMWe love Cercle Rouge! DominicWe love Cercle Rouge! Dominic the host is always accommodating-greets us with smiles & makes us feel like regulars.
The Steak & Tuna Tartare & Onion Soup are wonderful.
Enjoy!4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways enjoy a great mealAlways enjoy a great meal here with wonderful service.4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMNous sommes tres contents!My wife and I must drive up to one hour to get to this fine restaurant, which needless to say is well worth the effort. The cuisine is authentically French, imaginatively conceived and executed by a chef trained in the grand tradition. The service is professional; helpful, and friendly without being the least bit overbearing or intrusive. We look forward, as always, to our return to le Cercle Rouge.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMWell-executed food, Perfect serviceThe food at Cercle Rouge is bistro fair with few surprises, but it is brilliantly executed. All of the classic standards are on the menu, and are prepared to what should be the benchmark for other restaurants. The service really shined. Solicitous yet unobtrusive, the interplay between runners, waitstaff, and host was a textbook of how it can and should be done. After having eaten at some of the best restaurants in the city and world, the level of service we received at Cercle Rouge matches any of them, and in some cases, surpassed a few of the Michelin 3 stars.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMneighborhood gemSo good we went two nights in a row! Exquisite cuisine, service warm, welcoming, and professional. If in tribeca, eat here.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMAn Exceptional StaffI have been a patron of Cercle Rouge for many years and have always been satisfied with my overall experiences.
Last night something went wrong with the prerparation of the "choucroute"----it was incredibly over-salted.
I pointed this out to the restaurant''s host and he was very apologetic----he offered to quickly prepare another dish. I thanked him but indicated that I would pass on his offer. When the check was presented, my entree had been eliminated as was its cost. This was quite a classy unpretentious gesture.
Our waiter, Andre, also was incredibly attentive. When my wife asked him about two teas that she often orders but was unsure which she should select at that time, he insisted upon presenting both to her at no additional cost4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMCercle Rouge is a delight.Cercle Rouge is a delight. Its inventive takes on traditional bistro food never fail to please. The steak frites is prepared in the classic style - great frites and a steak cooked to your liking. The canard a l'orange blew me away - no gunky sweet sauce here. A garnish of a blood orange with some fiddlehead ferns. Beautiful.3/27/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways a great meal, and excellentAlways a great meal, and excellent service; a gem in TriBeca!3/22/2013 12:00:00 AM
