The Bistro Moderne does not disappoint. The food is a treat to the eye and to the palate. The French cuisine is as good as it gets. The service is outstanding but unobtrusive. Can't wait until we return next year.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat pre-theaterExcellent food and service. Early dinner for a 7:00pm show on a Monday so not busy.

I was told the crispy duck confit was terrific but since I wouldn't share my burger, I didn't get any duck! Desserts are terrific, especially the warm madeleines. I wish the table weren't so close and it was a tad quieter.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food is very good -- IThe food is very good -- I love the char.
Not so crazy about the $20/glass wine cost.5/8/2013 12:00:00 AMExpected moreThe food was good but not outstanding. Snails were very good, burger was cooked correctly but dry.

You can't go wrong, and excellent aervice seals the deal!4/28/2013 12:00:00 AMThe only complaint we hadThe only complaint we had was the support for the table. My wife was unable to find a comfortable sitting position for her feet due to the large base under the table.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMI've had duck confit in manyI've had duck confit in many places, but this was the best duck confit I have had, hands down. The skin was crispy but almost melted in the mouth. It was done perfectly. The mushrooms soaked in the sauce were also my favorite parts of the dish too.

I've had better for lots less. My dining companion did like her chicken breast - called it moist with a great sauce. If I come again I will order differently.4/16/2013 12:00:00 AMdb Bistro Moderne is one ofdb Bistro Moderne is one of the best restaurants in NYC....food,service, atmosphere/ambiance. Pasta Pappardelle with Lamb ragout, The amazing db Burger and pomme frits, small and large plates....can satisfy any/all tastes. One criticism: the waiter didn't understand that the Grey Goose up with olives was not a martini and that we didn't want vermouth. He was agreeable to bring us new drinks...and then served the vodka warm with olives in a low ball glass with ice. Oh well, nothing is perfect.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful service, especiallyWonderful service, especially given the location near Times Square.

We go there often when we first get to New York City and find the food, service and liveliness of the restaurant always terrific. We began with the Mediterranean sampler, a yummy mix of grilled calamari, hum as, olives and sliced savory cheese. A great shared plate. We followed that by sharing the classic db burger, a huge burger stuffed with short ribs and fois gras and seved with a cone of fries. It was seved for us split each with a cone of fries. The sommelier was helpful and the wine list interesting as well.
