Average french bistro

We have been dining at Bistro Les Amis for many years and the quality has never dipped. It is the perfect French Bistro....decor, background music, and the menu. The food is delicious....in winter the cassoulet is a special treat. The service is friendly and efficient.

This is our "go-to" place when we visit NYC. They are always attentive to time constraints when we have after-dinner theater tickets. It's a small place, so reservations are recommended. Service is top-notch. When weather permits, sit outside and watch the neighborhood activity!

Toujours un plaisir de dîner dans cet excellent restaurant

Mainstay in Soho- been going for lunch for years. Wonderful, authentic French cuisine and excellent service. Love the onion soup!

A wonderful and classy neighborhood restaurant that we come to for special occasions. Excellent French cuisine.

Nice place. Inside tables too close together but great servers. Nicely decorated for the holidays. We enjoyed the happy hour wines and a dozen delicious oysters. Our fish and chicken entrees well prepared.

Charming, unpretentious bistro with friendly and accommodating staff. We were both very happy with our meal choices: the penne was perfectly al dente and the pulled bbq duck was really good. Definitely will go back.

Always a pleasure to enjoy dinner at Bistro Les Amis!

Terrific slice of NYC with great food and wonderful service

We sat in a quiet area, the server was knowledgeable and professional. The food was excellent and the prices reasonable.

just an outstanding experience

very good service and food, nice ambiance

We love this place. Indoors is noisier but fortunately there was space around us and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

A best french resturant in my life. The service of the staff was good. The food portion was perfect. Not too full not too small. But it gets kinda loud as more people come in. And the tables were small.

Authentic French bistro. Perfect onion soup, croque madame and salads and it course…champagne!

Best French Bistro in Manhattan, always a favorite, never disappoints!

It was wonderful

First time and won’t be the last time. From the moment you walk in you feel welcomed.
Lovely little cafe.
Great choices on the wine.
I had the duck confit sandwich
Was it worth the price? Not really but it was delicious!
Service throughout was amazing.
Truly enjoyed my overall experience

We had a 7:30 reservation on a Friday and it wasn’t too crowded but it got busier as we were eating. It’s so charming. It’s like a place that’s been there forever but it still really good. We’ll definitely go back. There are so few places in this neighborhood that are not crazy $$$ and total scenes. This place is perfect.

We really enjoyed our dinner in this snug little bistro. From the steak tartare appetizer, to the lamb shank and filet mignon entrees, the food was perfectly prepared and delicious. My wife's apple Tarte Tatin with hazelnut ice cream was a big hit.
The service was friendly and very attentive, without being overbearing. While it was our first time there, we noticed that the staff remembers and acknowledges their regulars, giving it a family-like feel.
We'll be back, next time we're in SoHo.

Good , traditional bistro fare and one of the few remaining New York City restaurants with an acceptable noise level and music appropriate for dining and conversation. The main problem is the Open Table reservations system, which enforces an absurdly punitive cancellation policy and sets itself up as an intrusive digital pest after a visit to the restaurant.

This restaurant has always exceeded my expectations in the quality of the food, service, and ambiance.

Having had come to support this restaurant on numerous occasions I have not once been disappointed!

I would definitely recommend the escargot!

This was a last minute switch from one place to another and I’m so glad we did. The staff were so nice and welcoming. The ambiance was perfect and very much like being in Paris. The food was perfect. I had a goat cheese tomato tart that was on the specials menus which was nice. My partner had tuna tartare that was also quite nice and fresh. For the mains I had the most flavorful chicken breast that came with the most amazing sauce that went great with the mashed potatoes. My partner had a filet mignon which I’ve never been a fan of but I tasted it and would no doubt order that for myself. We also had dessert which I don’t regret it. The apple Tartan which our server recommended and she didn’t let us down. Also the French martinis were amazing. Moral of the story here is, I highly recommend it and can’t wait to go back to try other things.

Amazing restaurant. Fantastic service and ambiance. Amazing food. The escargot was the best I’ve ever had. Steak and duck were perfect.

I enjoyed my meal very much, except for two items. The orange sauce for the fish did not taste good, at least not like orange. And the profiteroles, while generous in size, weren't what I call profiteroles: it was a huge mound of ice cream with pieces of pastry inside it, rather than pastry shells filled with ice cream. The appetizers, vegetables were all delicious. It's a very pleasant ambience and service, I would recommend to friends except for the dessert. Also, reasonable prices for this part of town.

We just love Bistro les Amis. Feels like home. It is a fantastic neighborhood place that has successfully served its patrons for many years.

Great food and ambiance in SOHO

excellent service, excellent food

The manager and staff offered personal care and attention. The dishes were extraordinarily well prepared and the street side atmosphere is lovely.

Had an amazing dinner and were welcomed by the owner as always.

Never ceases to satisfy on all levels. Bistro Les Amis's service, food, and atmosphere are always welcoming.

This is a difficult review. We split an order of butternut squash ravioli as an appetizer. It was delicious. My duck main course was outstanding. Huge portion, cooked perfectly. However, my friend's pork chop was very, very fatty. With hindsight, he should have sent it back. He did mention it to the waiter who passed on his comments to the owner (?). The owner apologized profusely and took the pork chop off the bill. He said that this shouldn't have happened and would speak to the meat supplier. Very nice that he took the food off the bill but this should not have happened in the first place. The pork chop should have been checked before it was cooked and served. That's why I rated the food only three stars. Having said this, I would definitely go back.

Service was the best. Very French place.

The best onion soup!

A beautiful indoor room. Modern yet traditional. Romantic for dinner or meet friends for brunch/lunch. Very friendly service. Delicious food at reasonable prices.
Outdoor seating also available.

Love the food and the very hospitable service! We were early for our reservation, but we were warmly greeted and seated immediately. I ordered the croque monsieur and was very quickly told I could have the madame version if i wished. That happens to be my favorite way and I was well pleased with the results!

The food was fantastic. Loved the outdoor seating and cute patio. Was a fun Parisian experience!

We had a great meal here! We were supposed to eat at Laduree but walked out after our food was served cold. Bistro Les Amis had great food and great service.

Service was amazing. Food was fabulous. Pleasant ambiance.
