About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem

  • Good for special occasions
Inspired by the birthplace of the original Parisian brasseries along the Left Bank of the Seine River, Left Bank Brasserie is an authentic Parisian-style brasserie by Chef Roland Passot. Left Bank pays homage to the joie
de vivre that is synonymous with the Left Bank neighborhood in Paris. Guests are invited to step into
French culture, in a vibrant, social atmosphere that captures all the charm of traditional brasseries
and iconic alfresco dining of France. An all-day menu features authentic French cuisine utilizing
seasonal, local and organic ingredients, and consists of iconic lighter fare such as oysters, tartare and
prawns provençal, in addition to heartier classics like coq au vin and beef bourguignon. Inspired by the

    It is always the best. Love the greeting Yuri always gives to patrons. I wish they didn’t charge for bread or substituting fries for salad with the sandwich. But I guess I have gone there for too many years to not remember when those niceties were given freely.

    I wish we had this restaurant next door. My husband would never have to cook. Love the cocktails, the steak tartare, the lamb sandwich. But most of all we love the camaraderie and the atmosphere. Service is outstanding. Thank you. We wish you the very best. See you next time

    My open table app confirmed it was my birthday, and the hostess acknowledged it on arrival and told the server. I was surprised when they sang Happy Birthday to someone else... but never acknowledged mine. No mention of my birthday or dessert from my server. Why did they even ask me? I am disappointed.
