    Alain Ducasse should hang up his toque. The food was abysmal. My quenelles were frozen inside and had to be returned. An appetizer that claimed to be tapenade had no taste of olives and, the worst, a desert of profiteroles consisted of a plate of tiny dough balls next to a dish of ice cream and a separate dish of cold chocolate sauce. The steps to the downstairs bathroom are fraying carpet patched with electrical tape. NEVER AGAIN

    Seems more to be Alain by Benoit Ducasse rather than Benoit by Alain Ducasse. The place seems a little bit too pretentious for a Bistro. I found the place overpriced for what I got. The pâté en croûte a little bit fade. Thanks god for the salt and pepper. The Quenelle is fine. However, $40 is expensive for that dish. The Baba au rhum is ok. Nothing really special. Regarding the bread, this is not a good advertisement for French bread. The bread probably stayed out the whole day and lost the crunchiness of its crust and the freshness of its crumb. After you took care of the check, you will get a madeleine. Like the bread, freshness and crunchiness were missing. It is fine but far from what I expected from Alain Ducasse. As a French restaurant, I prefer going back to Nougatine rather than visiting Benoit again.

    I’ve had better meals at Benoit. The crudite was really disappointing. Looking like the kind of selection one would pick up in a supermarket. Shame.

    Bonjour Sean, we're sorry to hear that your experience with our crudite didn't meet your expectations. We strive to provide high-quality ingredients and it seems we fell short this time. We hope you'll give us another chance to impress you in the future. Best, Benoit NY Team
