    The NY Strip was a little tough for eating it in a sandwich. Maybe for awkward moments for me and my lunch mate, who ordered the same.

    I celebrated my birthday with dinner at PB Brasserie; what a delight! It’s a gorgeous space with the perfect touches of elegance and modern decor. All of the food we had was so delicious - from the calamari appetizer and salmon dinner, to the yummy cocktails. The cheesecake was divine and I wish I had ordered another slice! Great place & I will be back!

    We used to live right by Maison Harlem, despite moving downtown, we now make the trip at least once a month back to Harlem because no other french restaurant in the city can compete with Maison Harlem either in quality and taste of the food or ambiance! We had the fish special and steak frites special last night and they were divine!! Service was, as always, warm and welcoming!
